I agree, in many instances a quality author can produce quality content but fail to get it promoted to a level commensurate with the value it brings based upon the number of followers they have. Wherein some at the top become "vote whores" and post garbage to rake in some $$$$ as the dung beetles below them devour it. It's an interesting paradox really and takes dedication to the grind to build a following that will actually promote quality content.
