not a fair comparison. You established your voice in a much less crowded arena, with fewer established alliances, and much more personal voting and curating taking place. I was there, I know what it was like. I'm telling you, watching these newbies, it's not like it was. On any odd day in Aug 16, some weird kid with 2 followers might and DID make 4 grand on a makeup tutorial. There was more money per user. It was much easier. And all I'm really doing here, is encouraging people to do their own damn voting.

The price of steem was about the same, so we had the same prize pool, almost dollar per dollar, with one percent of the users we have now. do the math

Look, Everit. I made more than you. A lot more than you. We started about the same time and I made more than you've got now, in the first five months I was here. But, I had to power down to live life and I have no complaints. But, The truth is, you don't know what you're talking about. We didn't have the bandwidth issues these minnows are dealing with, and we could lure those votes from the big payouts, because they were connected to eyes. I took a look at what you're doing and it's working for you, but, even with 4000 followers, you're only getting 20 votes a post, and averaging $16. So, I'm not sure your the best example. I'm not trying to be rude, but you don't know what you're talking about as far as this being easier to start from scratch now. No way. Not even close. I've done twice the posting I did when I started, since I came back full time, and the earnings have been good, but very spotty and the average post is not paying nearly as much. It wasn't hard at all in the early day to get a hundred or more votes on a page. We didn't have the problem of not being able to cast more than three or four votes and a single post. We were unlimited. So, no, it's not the same. Your approach would work now, but, with 0 followers, you'd be lucky to average 50 cents a post, forget $16, and they don't start with a grant, like we did. They start with a loan and a lot less SP than what we did. Plus, there are 50k of them starting every damn day.
