You can simply decline payment when creating a new post. Hence even curating that post generates no revenues.

Why would anyone do that. If you'r getting something extra with your great post then what's the problem with it.

Hi @r-a-h-u-l, an author can decline a payment for any reason they feel like, however, they may feel particularly inclined to refuse payment if they are promoting a product or service outside of Steemit that they will receive compensation for.

It is just a choice of the author. You can pick any of the three options above and so does anybody else.
