If you have time, can you please answer a question for me? Or anybody else who may be reading through the comments and knows the right answer. So I have seen in a couple of places the low SP below 120 single vote not counting. I currently have 100 SP of my own, and am delegated 150 SP. So my question is, do I fall into this group because of my 100 SP, or am I okay because of the 150 on top of that that has been delegated? I appreciate anybody who can take the time to answer this question. And I hope that everybody here has a wonderful day.
@freedomshift I am sorry to hear that you will be unable to offer your continued support due to lack of support on your behalf. This makes me feel (because I have been here) that there's a good chance that you gave out more than you received. I play games at my place to help the new guys, sometimes they pay out well sometimes I don't. So I use my proceeds from my other posts during the week to raise the reward amounts. I'm really not able to give out much ever. The most that I've ever been able to reward everybody what's $0.10. but I especially cater to the very new, and to them that is more than quite a few of them have made on any single post they've ever put out. And judging from what they tell me it is really helping them. Plus I know at least a couple of them, it is almost the sole reason that they continue to use steemit. I also know, because I watch what they do that while they're on to play my games, they also stick around for a half an hour to an hour upvoting other people and going through people's sites. I don't know, maybe it doesn't really matter, but to me it feels like I make a little difference.
This week was the first week that I had ever participated in the pay it forward contest, and if you saw how not good I was at it, that was very obvious. My point is, I think that it's a good thing for those who understand how to play it. And I think that it's helping a lot of people meet people and get their content out there. Bottom line is I think it's good for our community.
So as a token of my gratitude for what you do for our community I am sending you something to your wallet to show my appreciation. I know it's probably not much, but I hope that it helps.
And thank you once again for everything that you have done and that you are doing for everybody here. And as always I send all of my love to you and all of yours until we meet again.And as always I send all of my love to you and all of yours until we meet again.
Please see the footnote and post about SP - you are discounting your votes by letting your SP go below 80%. SP regenerates at 20% per day, so, you need 2 1/2 to 3 days of no voting to let it regenerate.
I would tell people to wait a few days to regain SP because then, you would more than double your effective SP - it is all multiplied.
You just blew my mind. You're the first person to offer that in depth of an evaluation of voting power. Thank you so much for that. And for replying to every single other piece of my comment. 😊 I do just have one more question. When I multiply 0.4 X 298 I get something like 119. So does that mean that it's the same as voting with 119 SP?
Exactly my point:
Yeah, but my vote is worth so little as it is I'm not going to make it worth less. I don't know your views on it, but I see people uploading me with like 2% voting power and giving $0.001. I think that I would rather than just not vote at all and save their voting power for things they really enjoy. I do appreciate you spending so much time helping me. I almost feel bad for it because I know you must have a thousand other things to do. But thank you again and I send you all of my love dear friend.
