As curation awards is proportional to the amount of vote given, one should have relatively much steem power before it's wort the effort to think about curation awards.
I failed to think straight when writing the article. With great steem power comes great responsibility, it's important to vote "correctly". With low steem power it doesn't matter that much how one votes, just hit the button :-)
hehe yeah okay, it takes ages to get there....! But hopefully one day I'll be there ;D
