Awesome breakdown!! Let's see how well this goes, I'm excited :-)

Thank you for watching! I'm excited as well and it will be interesting what our votes will be worth once the fork happens. Then over the first week we will see how that plays out on the trending page and our individual blogs.

Yeah who knows, majority of the minows who don't have a power bar will only have 10 votes a day... because most would want to regenerate back to 100%... time will tell 😀

Na, they can keep voting. It will keep using 2% of their remaining power. I know it is hard to explain but when they vote the first time it will take them to 98% and then the next time they vote it will take them 96.04% power instead of 96% if I understand it correctly. I hope that makes sense.
I don't even have a power bar anymore myself because I don't have much Steem Power right now. Sad... I know!

You made some great points in this vlog, i also believe that quality should be more powerful and more advertising than steem power.

The tough thing is it is tough to really determine quality. An ongoing problem on Steemit is people trying to show massive effort by having these super long posts that no one would ever be able to read all of it just to show a lot of effort. But a small post can be entertaining or well done. It is a really tough thing to figure out and that is part of the reasons why there have been so many Forks.

that's right, quality over quantity.

As you know I'm not a new user but I found this very helpful, Thanks Brian!

I really appreciate that! Hopefully it helps some others as well. I know there were a lot of people thinking that it was going to make everyone's voting power worth the same whether you were a new user or a large stake holder and so I want to make sure everyone realizes that isn't the case.

Please don't correct me if I'm wrong, but in my head, you actually live in that pool. LOL!! Good explanation, thank you!!

Well look a couple posts back which was also done today and you will see all the work I put into the pool so you will understand why I'm in the pool so much! Also it is REALLY hot here! Hahahah

I can't wait to see how this will play out, especially being a small user with not much pull. Good meeting dude!

Great information.

I'm glad it helped! Thanks for watching!

Thanks, this really helped understand the upcoming fork :)

I'm glad it was helpful!

This is an awesome explanation and pool meeting. Resteemed

Thank you so much! It means a lot to me!

Thank you for sharing that with us. I am excited to see this change happening. I have been here since last September and I don't even know where to see what my power bar is worth other than when I vote 100% I see the value change... lol

Hmmm, you should see a little slider bar that you can adjust when you vote.

Yes I see that all the time, I thought you were inferring that there was some place where you could maybe see your value in a graph or something similar to steemwhales. I'm good @brianphobos my head just went there, overthinking again. Sorry.

Well you can see what your full vote power is on http://steemd.com/@sunscape

You are at 34.32% . It is over at the left side where it shows.

Well that is awesome, I did not know about that site. Thank you very much.

20 YEARS ON STEEMIT?!
wat

:-) Hahahha. I'm glad other people are excited for my milestone as well!

Great info! I think these are good changes that needed to be made. Our community should be based on having more equality.

Just another uncertainty as the experiment continues. :-)

It will be interesting if the voting experiment where the whales aren't voting will continue after the Hard Fork. Then we will get to see how much our votes are worth.

I think I already got use to it. Not sure about the rest of the folks here. :-)

Thanks you for the info. Don't get eaten by a whale in your pool. ;)

I have a blow up killer whale. I will have to bring him out for the next meeting!

Free Willy?

Well he isn't so free right now. He is deflated and in a closet. LOL

You have to leave out a bit of air when you inflate him again and set him free. That way his top fin will hang low, just like Willy.

thanks. I'm new user and now I understand what happened.

Yeah it is the biggest day on Steemit ever! This is the LIVE feed of everyone who is trying to get a Steemit account right now.
