I have been trying to get some friends to join. They had a lot of questions about that 12 hour window. I could not come up with a logical explanation for it and they decided not to sign up. I think the solution that donkeypong and pfunk mentioned would make much more sense. I could sell that to my buddies.

how would they even now about these problems?
I have had some friends who were interested in joining. I wanted them to join so I sat down with them and tried to explain things as thoroughly as possible. I didn't want them to be in for any unpleasant surprises. I was able to explain just about everything except for that. I had a pretty good answer for how things worked until I got to that 12 hour window. When they asked "why can you only have rewards taken away during the last 12 hours?" I didn't have a logical answer for them. I could only say, "that is the way the system works".
Well as they mostly would not have been affected , just not telling them such irrelevant thing might be the right way to go if you try to onboard people. Most of them will not earn anything anyway in the beginning @knozaki2015 @hanshotfirst
agree on that. I don't think you have to explain all the details. let them join and find out some stuff themselves. nobody told me anything ;) .
btw. the reason that downvote is there (at least my theorie) is that in order to avoid whales in voting up their own posts last minute of if they did that other whales have the time to counter it.
I don't consider bernies downvotes to be harmful to the platform, he can do as he pleases with his voting power, as any user can, and if a post is downvoted by one whale and for eample 100usd are taken of a post which is at 300usd, than that's it. there is no post which deserves 500 or more usd anyway. so people should just stop crying and start posting more ;). all that drama around someone is downvoting me is just kindergarden, you know: sometimes the you lose and the other time the others win... that's how life is...
I wish to thank you personally for voting for me this past year. Steem was very fun in the beginning, when most people recognized each other. And now it is a little easier to get followers. The middle time had my best unrewarded work, however.
aizeonsou, I think its been a while since you up-voted me, but thanks
