I apologize for snapping at @whatsup @steemit-life @neoxian @gduran and @penguinpablo i freak out when things I love stop working, but how would you feel if you were getting $00.00 on posts with 100 upvotes! 6 days of posts all over 50 upvotes all $00.00!

OK LOOK EVERYONE, I AM SORRY, I freaked out at alot of you
I have Tourrettes syndrome and OCD and probably on the spectrum and I get upset when things stop working especially things i really loved like steemit....

I apologize to @whatsup @steemit-life @neoxian @gduran and @penguinpablo for talking disrespectfully I am just trying to make sure people know I am not complaining about having never made any money, i made like 4100 in two weeks and it was great and then i just stopped getting anything passed $00.00 even for posts with over 100 upvotes! and still $00.00! this is after the hardfork and everyoen else has been getting paid like normal (expect a few who also commented on my post asking wtf is going on, telling me theyre experiencing the same thing)

i am sorry for snapping at you when you were just trying to help, i'll just accept my fate as being unlocky blockchain user, and just go back to trying some other way to make money, i am just really poor and thought I could finally have a savings with steemit

I am just upset that everyone else seems to have their payouts working just fine, and people are even making money on comments posted on my posts that dont even get 1 cent even tho theyre well over 40 upvotes! Its frustrating seeing peopel make more money on comments on my posts than I even make on the post! How is that right? And I see other steemit users getting plenty of payout just like before but none of my posts are giving me the same payouts they used to mine are all stuck at zero even with 90 upvotes! how is that right? Why am I being singled outy?

Why cant I have a level playing field? Shouldnt all steemit users have the same equal treatment? Why are upvotes on my posts worth nothing while the same upvotes are making other users money!

I have to say it is much different after the HF for me as well. I was getting anywhere from $1 to $10 or more. The worst part is I have brought over a couple of people, telling them how good it was going and now boom - nothing. I hear it will get better, but I'm afraid many of the new people wont wait around...

You must continue to plug away writing articles and networking. You are just beginning, unless you are a genius, gifted and very special, it'll take you six months of posting every day, commenting on others articles and socializing to earn enough steem power to see curation and article profits.

This may cause your symptom to flare up regarding your anxiety. Work on developing your skills and social network for right now...money will come later. This is like any business, it'll take a couple years to build your cache!

I dont think you understand that I already made $100 in like 2 weeks....I was getting great profit everyday, I wa smaking like $1-$10 on each of my articles,, go look at my blog, the payments just stopped, even after the hardfork, oh well, it just frustrated me seeing others getting paid for same upvotes id get and id get $0.... ..you arent understanding...I was making money on steemit just fine...and then all of teh sudden my steem was not showing up and i was getting same amount of upvotes, ....im not complaining about NEVER making any money on steemit....

Me too, mine have dried up twice with each hardfork, curie dropped me as a newbie and I took a loss, my post get boring, I take a loss... I was making good money off and on for the last 6 months, but this place is in beta and I think you are dealing with unrealistic expectations. Take some time to get to know how this place operates, the politics, the personalities, how rewards work. Because it sounds like you don't know what you're talking about. You're a newbie and the job of a newbie is to learn what's going on!

well no, thats not true, ive looked at your blog page, you have been getting paid...I have been getting ZERO, you have not been dealing with this same issue...I am getting zero, you are getting plenty , i would love to get what you get, i looked at your history, noneof your posts are at $00.00 because all your posts haave over 50-100 upvotes! alot of mien have over 50 close to 100 but are at $0! u may be experiencing a loss but not liek em, or it was not recently like me, which was all blamed on some magical hard fork which was never explained, noone showed me evidence of what was really going on, just talk about some rewards pool that noone ever showed me ...I still believe someone is just siphoning off rewards, or else where else are they? And if thats not how this place works, then why was i being paid for my content with lots of upvotes? (or enough for me) was that an unrealistic expectation? Seriously you havenjt even looked at my history or my screenshots have you? I was getting zero, not just a loss no but zero on stuff that should be getting at least $3-$5 as i had 50-100 upvotes on each thing! i just finally got a post to have 5 cents but it has like 40 upvotes which normally gets me a few bucks at least, not 1 cents or 0 cents...or 5 cents...its just very very suspicious and I can sense when there is theft going on....me and a lot of other users can sense something isnt right...people are using this jargan as if steemit is so complex they cant explain how things are working and thats just NOT true..its really sad, i had better expectations for steemit, and i hope they stop taking our rewards

well I know as much as i needed to know,...and its a messed up system then if its this inconsistent! like how is learning how the system works going to fix my problem which seems like a glitch that just so happens to take all my earnings away? and honestly what do you mean by learning about how rewards works? I write content, get upvotes, and it gets rewards, and honestly theres not much more to it, if youre saying theres some special politics to this place that rewards some more than others due to politics, well that defeats the whole purpose of this place its suppose dto eb decentralized where if you post good stuff that gets upvotes you get steem...its a basic thing...i dont see why youre defending teh system that is obviously at fault...unrealistic expectations? I dont think its unrealistic to expect I get the same rewards i was getting, that everyone else gets, seriously isnt this place supposed to be a meritocracy? egalitarian supra state ? seriously what should politics have to do with anything? are you saying Im being punished? seriously who has the power to take away my rewards when i am getting the same amount of upvotes?

Do you know what beta means? Plus there is no guarantee you will always make money...this flux of change and uncertainty may trigger your anxieties. Are you aware of your triggers enough to handle the stress of a beta testing platform?

The system is in testing mode, I'm am not defending it...I'm trying to help younhandle uncertainty and change.

ok ill just wait, thanks for the insight

I know you have anxieties, so do I, my mom tried to get the doctor to diagnose me with autism back in the 1960s. The doctor told her nothing was wrong with me, I was a normal child, just very sensitive. Hahaha, he prescribed my very neurotic mom Valium, calms people down. Needless to say living with very neurotic people I developed a high degree of anxiety.

I learned a lot of tricks to let go of my anxiety, meditation, diet, and exercise. Plus I know my triggers. Stay and watch what happens here and create content if you have the time, watch how you react to stress. Instead of expecting things to happen a certain way, stay open and aware.

sorry, i did it again, i went oiverbaord in my last comment, ya im following you to now,

I also see now that many peoples postw are on the frontpage getting $00.00 and with 40+ upvotes!

As much as i wanna see others succeed, its strangly reassuring that everyone else is not making money like me, or that its random, and that its a low payout process applied to everyone equally...i just didnt wanan be on some group where i wasnt abole to earn any steem for my upvotes comaprewd to others thats ll..ima chill now, i hope i showed everyone how passionaite about steemit i am now!

i wanna learn programming for steemit plugin and extensions and crhome extensions to make a Steemit Enhancement Suite! or at least tryu to find a way to program or pay a programmer to build some of the features found in reddit enhancement suite into a steemit enhancement suite, AND to have instagram steemit link accounts,m AND to have youtube share button for steemit next to all teh oither social media buttons under a youtube video

interesting follow you now

No problem. I'm already over it. At least you are passionate about SteemIt.

I still want to ask, can you actually give me a real answer or a relevant reason as to why others are being paid but i am not ?

Each vote a person receives is worth a different amount of steem, it is a calculation based on how much steem power the voter has. (More Steem power means bigger vote weight which means, a more valuable vote.

The votes you are currently receiving do not hold enough weight to give you a payout at this time. (They don't payout for 7 days, so that may change)

All votes are not equal and they were not intended to be.

The final answer:
Others are being paid because the value of the votes they are receiving is higher.

and MAGICALLY This article has $00.05 (even tho it has 49 votes which usually got me alot more but oh well its a start, better than nothin!)
