Have you ever seen this error message?
"STEEM_UPVOTE_LOCKOUT_HF17: Cannot increase payout within last twelve hours before payout."
Sorry, You Have Been Locked Out!

It's a great article...
It was well thought out, painstakingly researched, and curated with lovely images. You found the article fascinating and informative. You desperately want to reward the author for his or her hard work and quality content.
Sadly, that article only earned 73 cents, and THE PAYOUT PERIOD HAS ENDED...
Meanwhile, dilettantes with friends in high places are publishing junk, gaming the system, and walking away with tens or hundreds in STEEM and SBD...
Where is the equity in that?
Late Rewards Are Still Possible...

Fear not.
You can reward any great content creator here on Steemit, no matter how long ago their article may have been published.
That's right, you no longer have to be disappointed when you come across a great article after the payout period has expired.
Just do what I do:
Leave a comment like this under the article:
Leave a comment like this... (Screenshot by @creatr)
When your favored author responds,
upvote the heck out of his comment to reward him for his outstanding work.
This works for any Steemit article,
no matter how old. (For example, you can reward me for any article in 📚My Vast Library📚 in this fashion... Just sayin'! 😉)
Now that you know what to do, go for it! Reward all those deserving articles that never made it to the trending page!
- @creatr
~FIN~
P.S. If you have an "in" with anybody at Steemit, Inc. - Would you please ask them to get rid of these damn, extremely annoying "off-website" arrow/boxes? The have, overnight, made Steemit ugly. There are much better solutions.

Greetings, my dear, and Thank You for taking the trouble to check this out...
Actually, AFAIK, it must be a recent comment (like this one that I'm writing now! ;) for you to be able to "reward" my older posts...
In other words, the concept works as follows:

That's a great idea, but I don't think anyone would want to do that. For the 1+ month that I've been in steemit, I've realized that you get upvoted not on how great your content is, but how high your sp is to reciprocate the gesture and how long you've been in a community. Very few people sincerely upvote good contents. I've seen junk content having tens of dollars and I keep wondering what I can do to get seen so that my original content will get at least 1sbd. But the truth is that, if you're just starting out in steemit, regardless of how informative your content may be, it may never get the needed attention. If people like you that would have a desire to curate a past great content are many, some minnows may stand a chance of making it here.

It would be nice if more people, especially whales, adopted this attitude.
I think there are "good whales" out there... But we all have the problem that there is only so much time in a day, and only so many people we can meaningfully interact with.
Thanks for taking the time to share your outlook with us! :D

Thanks for the response. But i'll have to bother you a bit. I know you've been on steemit for quite a long time. Please, what can a minnow do to get noticed here? I comment alot on other people's posts daily and I've also set my reward to be converted fully to sp 100%. What else do you think i should do that will give me a chance to climb higher? Steemit is really getting harder with each passing day!

No bother, I'm happy to try and answer sincere questions...
Simply put, I don't really know? What you are doing is certainly important, and keep it up. I feel similar frustrations even after being here for almost two years now.
I think the best advice would be to look for some whales that you have genuinely shared interests with, and cultivate a relationship with them.
We all have the problem that there are limited hours in the day, and it is difficult to add "new people" to our set of folk that we interact with...
I wish you the best!

Yes!! I do that!!! I'm glad you are letting others in on it though. I don't know how many times I've read a post, commented and then went to upvote and the upvote wouldn't work. It's then that I notice the date. So when the person replies I give them my best upvote.
Thanks @creatr.

great idea @creatr
it's really frustrating to make quality posts and not have a meaningful upvote. already changed my mindset that steemit progress is just based on who you know. but recently i just decided to see steemit as a journey of self development, because on other social medias i don't take time to drop a content, but since i have been trying to be active on steemit, i try to always do better each time. and with patience and persistence maybe someday i will become.

A vote is a vote is a vote... :)
You also have to consider that the worth of your vote is NOT what your vote is worth today...
For a HODLer, your vote is worth what STEEM and SBD will be worth when they ultimately cash out... which could be 10x or 100x or more than today's value... ;)
And, your encouragement is invaluable... :)

You can also use the wallet function to send a thank you. I read and commented on a book, commented on everyone of them, I got votes from the author but only a few comments, so after reading, I just used the wallet and said thank you for the story. Like the saying goes, (and I have no idea where it came from), there is more than one way to skin a cat.

You just transfer at least 1 SBD to @tipu - you can check the balance always by sending 0.001 to them and writing "balance" in the memo

Yes that's a good idea, as long as the upvoter is not a redfish because the vote is dust unless they have dustsweeper. :) That's what I still know but if there's been a change since the HF let me know.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Good points.
The general idea here, however, is that if you have enough Steem Power to actually reward someone's post, and you would have rewarded the post... you can reward a comment at any time later, instead.
And, if you happen to be a redfish with very little voting power, but are really impressed by an article, you can always enlist your friends to supplement your vote with theirs to bring the total over the dust threshold.
Finally, most authors I know truly appreciate sincere comments all by themselves, even if you are not capable of generating a reward in Steem...
