RE: a "newbie" Question from Philanthropest
The $ you've earned are due to upvotes by accounts with significant Steem Power adding up. The person commenting had nothing to do with your reward decreasing. If you click on the small downward arrow beside the number of votes you've received it will show you the names of those who upvoted you. Your reward decreases when someone (with higher reputation I believe) flags your post by clicking the little flag in the upper right corner of your post (never done that myself). Again, if you look for the names of those who upvoted(+) you, you will also find people who downvoted/flagged(-) you.
MANY MANY THANKS...REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP....AND YOU GOT MY FIRST UPVOTE...CHEERS FOR YOUR HELP
;( IT DOESN'T LIST THE NAMES....WISH IT DID...THEN I WOULD KNOW WHO I SHOULD FOLLOW--OR UNFOLLOW...THERE IS A FLAG BESIDE THE POST. COULD IT BE BECAUSE I UPLOADED A VIDEO FROM YOUTUBE? I'VE BEEN PROMOTING STEEMIT ON EACH COMMENT I MAKE ON YOUTUBE (cuz i have been Twitter Free for a few days now...tee hee
You need to click where the red circle is:
I can't speak for the person who flagged your post, but I know people value creativity and original content on Steemit. Maybe the person thought the reward you were getting for it was unfair since your post revolved solely around a video you didn't make yourself. I think flagging your post only for that is harsh, but again maybe there is another reason you and I both ignore.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT I WILL HAVE TO GET MORE 'CREATIVE' I'M LEAVING LINKS TO STEEMIT ON EACH VIDEO I POST....I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO 'PROMOTE" STEEMIT... I WISH I KNEW HOW TO MAKE VIDEOS... MUST LEARN
