heyy so maybe you can field a couple other questions if you don't mind. looks like i got a payout from ~one of my posts?~
i see in my history an author award and a content reward. then i see a "claim rewards" because i claimed, which only shows the numbers from the author reward.
i don't see how to claim the content reward.
also, for the witness thing, should i just give all my votes out asap or over time? i just mean, is there some benefit to me by giving the votes out. i see something about the interest rate being dependent on witnesses.
and for like my PORN tokens, the PORN POWER says: "and allow you to earn on curation rewards." - i guess this means if someone includes one of my posts in a curated feed? but presumably this only means in curated posts on this tribe's site?
So any pending rewards will show up here:

Everything. Doesn't matter what. Here's what mine looks like right now:
That little bit I haven't claimed yet is probably from someone voting a comment of mine somewhere.
So here's how it works. If the post says $100, you'd get roughly half; fifty bucks. That fifty would be split into HBD and HP. I think it's half and half. So 25 bucks worth of HP and 25 HBD in this scenario. I could be wrong with that split, but that split exists.
Curation rewards, you won't get much. That pays in HP and if you don't have much HP, you don't get much of a curation reward. Curation rewards come standard every time you vote, but yours are small. Build up the HP to see curation reward. Some people think it's a ripoff that they only get half their post payout but when you build up HP, and vote, you make up for some of that fifty percent you lose (technically it's not a loss it just looks that way).
Witnesses. You're free to vote however you see fit. That's also stake based. The more HP you have, the more say you have in governance. Someone with 75k HP like me can push a witness much higher up the rankings than someone with 75 HP. That low number would barely move that witness. It's good to learn about them though, and their projects if they have any. Snoop around when you have time.

You can also vote by proxy. Basically hand that responsibility over to someone else. I personally don't recommend doing that though. That's how a lot of folks lost out on the initial HIVE token snapshot. They handed their voting rights over and the one voting for them voted in favor of a sybil attack. Those people were excluded from Hive because it was the sybil attack we were moving away from. Certainly can't build a new chain that comes with a sybil attack already in the governance. And for some strange reason, people couldn't wrap their heads around that...
For those PORN tokens what they're saying is, if you stake them, you earn curation rewards. That means when you vote other posts and comments within that Tribe. But if you have them staked and use Peakd to vote, provided it's still a post from that Tribe (they can still be viewed and interacted with on peakd) what you'd be doing is voting with your HP and your Porn Power.

So there I see you have roughly 500 power and just over 200 liquid. If you staked the 200, your vote for that tribe would be worth more, and you'd earn more with that vote. Same system with Hive.
If this is confusing. I'm not bored with trying to help you.
so here -
the Author reward, i see I claimed. what's the content reward?
(or is that the amount that was split up and where the author rewards are coming from, even though in terms of the chronological order it's shown in, it would seem to make more sense being shown with the content reward first?)
also, i assume it makes sense to put those HBD into savings, but i assume that's what i could have tried to withdraw as USD if i wanted to, right?
and the HP that i received, eventually i could power down some amount of it to get plain Hive tokens, to do whatever with? but it seems like the HBD is kinda more for potentially withdrawing, since the HP helps boost the earning ability resulting in more HBD over time.
i didn't quite understand what you meant about staking the PORN and then voting from peakd. did you mean that that might be a good thing? or just that i should be aware that if i upvoted from outside the context of the tribe for posts on that tribe, that i would be using more than just their token. i mean, maybe i would consider it a good thing, depending.
and so this also only represents that single post so far. i'm not sure how i got porn tokens already, since none of those posts are as old, but i think those posts eventually would also possibly payout hive?
and also this particular post that is shown, i can no longer receive votes on, is that right?
thanks!!
The content reward is nothing. I see the post that paid out was worth that much on the surface. The number below is what you received. Your half, broken down into HBD and HP. If you add it up together, it's half of $3.88. Ignore 'content reward'.
I put my HBD into savings. That's just me giving myself a 12% raise. You can also exchange it for HIVE then power the hive up into HP if you wanted. Be careful with the conversions. Converting and the internal market are two very different things. You can lose money converting if you don't time it right. The market would be, selling HBD and buying HIVE, like an exchange. Converting HIVE to HBD should only be done when HBD is showing it's worth 1.25 or more. I think PeakD actually describes it a bit better when someone attempts to do it. Be careful with conversions.
Or yes you can always ditch the HBD. It's pegged to a buck ish. It's your money. Do whatever you want.
You'll need to keep some HP in your account otherwise you can't transact, or vote, or comment, or anything. That's what gives you resource credits.
It takes 13 weeks to fully powerdown. Whatever amount you powerdown, divided by 13. One payment each week. But again, never fully powerdown. Leave some otherwise you screw yourself. But if those delegations still exist, you'll have resource credits. They put that there to help you though. Eventually you need to stand on your own feet, by either buying in, or earning.
Those Tribes are so damn confusing. So you have two tokens. Hive and Porn. When you vote, you're tipping Hive and Porn, provided you have hivepower and porn power (lol what a name). BUT, say it's a post about ducks, not in the porn tribe. You won't be giving the duck lover and porn tokens, only hive. If the content is in the porn tribe, you give both. Confused more? LOL
I voted for your recent post. You used 'creativecoin' tag. I own CCC tokens, and several others. So, when I voted, I gave you the standard HIVE, plus CCC tokens on top of that. Confused more?
Here we are talking. Tribe tags on my post are: VYB, Neoxian, Creativecoin and POB. So when I vote for your comments here, because of those tags, you'll receive the standard Hive stuff, vyb, neoxian, creativecoin, but you won't get POB, because I don't have any POB tokens staked or powered up. I don't have to visit each frontend for those tribes to give you these tokens. I can do it on Peakd. Or I can do it on one of those tribe frontends. Same effect. Some people setup multiple accounts to handle all this nonsense. I personally don't care enough to be bothered and just, push the button, whenever. I literally don't care about 'maximizing'.
I think someone maybe hooked you up with an airdrop. Welcome to Hive LOL. Tokens fall outta the sky here all the time. See my Hive engine wallet? I don't even know how I got most of those...
And yes, after seven days the post is dead. It can still receive votes but they won't pay. This system is designed for the way content is created these days. A steady stream of new stuff. People can still tip you though with old work. So it's not like it's dead dead. Just dead to votes.
where do you think i got an airdrop from?
and yeah that's all confusing. i honestly didn't realize that potential benefit of having tagged it with creativecoin, i thought maybe that would allow it to be shown in some other community. i had looked at other posts in alienarthive and was taking note of the tags people used.
I'll check...
They gave me some as well, when it started.
And yeah Creative Coin is Tribe, just like Dporn. They give CCC. I don't know if they're actively developing anymore though.
But I'd say you did the right thing because it puts the content in front of that market. So you put that post in the alien art community, which would be a market of potential consumers. Creativecoin market. Your own list of followers is a market. Not much different than posting across several platforms.
yeah so that person was helping me, that's when i received that :)
i think they might be taking over control of that tribe, and want to have actual creators on it who are verified and eliminate all the stolen content, so it was a kind of mutually beneficial thing to get me set up where i could make a post there lol
somehow people doing nsfw stuff on these blockchains tend to find me, i don't really know how it happened immediately on hive cause i'm not crazy enough to think people are watching my profile like that anywhere LOL
I don't even know wtf I was doing when I stumbled into you. I'm all over the place though, lurking in the shadows. But it's really hard to gain traction and get noticed on this platform. Wasn't too hard for me though. But I'm fucking crazy and have been doing shit like this for years. Not exactly invisble.
Read that. It's funny. You'll like it.
