Did you know votes under. 03 are dust votes on Steemit and no one gets paid? Just an FYI. 2 wrongs don't actually make profit here. Here is an article I read.

I think it does. Activity of any kind under a post affects the reputation score. ;-) so thank you for responding.

Have you seen this article?

As futile as it seems by the numbers, we still do it anyway. Why is that? ;-) I think perhaps we have a choice to remain inactive, casting nothing - like lying dying and doing nothing - vs doing something. Making some noise. Something like a will to live.

I have these two family accounts which I am slowly investing in and aiming to generate content on both. They follow one another's comments and curation trails. So it's all automatic. Let's wait and see where it all goes. Maybe everything will tank. Maybe not ;-) But the content will always remain of a standard. Thanks for the comments always!

Your content is good content. I think it is worthy of votes that count. I noticed that my voting power has dropped maybe by my auto votes or the drop of steem. I will check out the article that you posted, I'm always interested in learning about the platform there's so much I do not know.

Aww - you're too nice. thanks.
I have also noticed this drop in value of pending/payout. your VP drop is more likely a result of auto votes. I adjust those all the time to keep me above 75% as far as possible.

And as with you, I am keen to understand more and more here. It's all so complex - i read the article you linked to and the one I sent you (re-read it).. there are so many ways to ook at everything, I just try not to let the sense of futility bring me to a state of being immobilized - rather push that into creating something out of that sense. It's way better right! I still upvote great posts - but since reading your article, i make sure the post is already pending more than 0.03 SBD. Maybe this is a good way to go?

Have a good 24hrs (day/night whatever ;)
