I'm glad you liked it. I was confused for quite a wile on how it worked and took a huge amount of research to understand it. I had to put this together to provide a simplified explanation. I hope it lands on @jerrybanfield steem.guide

Thank you for this great post @socky! Very helpful. You obviously put a lot of work into producing it.

Given how complicated all this seems to be, have you written any posts on resteeming?

Thank you, @socky, the the clear and simple explanation of the rewards system. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Until I read your post, I was confused about when to comment, what posts deserve comments, curation rewards, and payouts. You are doing a tremendous service to the Steemit community. Steem on!

The best way to talk to Jerry is by joining his Discord server. He explains it here:

I'm on Friends Of Jerry Banfield. He has a number of channels. The one I have is his Friends Chat channel, which is free to join and which, as he explains, he actually answers all questions.
It might take a day or so for him to catch up with messages, but he will respond. If you scan the messages and his answers, you will see that I asked a question and he answered it.

He also has some premium channels which you need to pay for, but right now the Friends channel should work for you. Link to your guide in your message to him and I think you will have a great chance that he will answer you.

Best wishes, Ira

@socky It's a good post. Now, I understand what happened with Curation. Upvoters take too much revenue for curation. Feeling sad.

$0.39

socky (72) · 7 years ago

Don't feel sad. My blogs are good to vote for since there are very few voters and high dollar amount.

nishadhasan (50) · 7 years ago

I also need a good amount of vote with good voting value. I sawed that you voted your own post and get more than $5. I also need some votes like this. :( Hope you will help me to get that.. BTW you are the best. Love your writing.

I’m glad you thought it was better. I plan to use this to explain to a cryptocurrency group. The hope is to get folks to sign up to Steemit. More work in this illustration means less effort to explain Steemit.

pieter87 (50) · 7 years ago

Indeed. Especially when you see that a lot of new member guides are still assuming the SBD price is pegged at 1$. I know it's designed to be so and the whitepaper is also mentioning it but the course is manipulated so it's confusing.

No problem @socky let’s build a better steemit comunity and build a better society as a whole! Social media believe it or not has huge impacts in real society! I see steemit as a way to show what social media can bring. Friendly, and in an informed society! We will see how the steemit comunity evolves as it continues to grow. Excited!

Great explanation! Perhaps the rewards need to be confusing so people focus more on carefully choosing quality posts to vote for instead of trying to game the system.

$0.09

socky (72) · 7 years ago (edited)

I think quality is where votes should be. Reality is that until there is a huge following, there will not be much visibility to make a difference. Key is to make post short and simple until there is a huge following. I put a lot of work into understanding the reward system and creating illustrations. It really didn't pay off. I even paid for votes to get visibility, and that didn't work. I need to stick to my very simple blogs for now until I get a following.
It does help that folks commented and liked the work. At least I got that.

Thanks for this breakdown. Question: Is there a different curator reward based on who votes before you or after you?

I seem to have read somewhere that you get a bigger share of the rewards from upvotes that come in after yours than for those that came in before yours. Is there any truth to that?

socky (72) · 7 years ago

My understanding is that works in the first 30 minutes. The trade-off is that you share rewards with the author within the first 30 minutes. It would be a gamble to make that work. The gamble is that you think that there would be voting on the blog that brings big money later.

I like your charts, they are really helpful, thanks for the effort you put in. I'm new here, and still not quite sure how this stuff works. So are you saying if someone likes your article 2 weeks after you write it, you will get nothing for it, but the person who liked it (votes for it) will get something since it is more than 30 minutes after you wrote it? I'm a bit confused about this still. And also, does it cost you to vote?

Hi @socky. First of all bundle of thanks to you. You always give valuable information. I listened many time that Steemit has changed the rewards policy (after Hard Fork 20). So kindly define about new policy of give away. How are they paying curation rewards as compare to time?

Hi @socky, I think you need to redo this post based on the outcome of hardfork 20. Things are not as described in this tutorial again due to some little changes. We love to see your rework as your explanations are on point.
