The amount of reward you get per vote is based on the vesting Steem of the person voting, and the more they vote on different things within the same 24 hour period, the more the value of each vote gets diluted. So after voting on your post, if someone moves along and votes for a few other posts, the value of the vote they originally put on your post drops.
The specifics are here:

Scroll down to "Limited Voting Rate".

I agree! I just joined today, posted for the first time and now I see this... it’s the same as if I bought bread in one store with some magic money and then milk in another store, and the money in the baker’s cash register would disappear just because I bought milk somewhere else. What idiot came up with this system? Sorry, don’t mean to be a grumpy cat right from the start but it’s so misleading and like you said, ridiculous. Reconsidering investing into this platform!
