As long as it goes over 1.2 Steem it is recorded to the chain.
So a 1% vote with 120 Steem Power @ 100% voting power. You won't be affected very much, nor will anyone that is here longterm really in my opinion. On a very large scale, it will show large numbers like the 750 TCpolymath mentioned for curie in a year but, that also is a tiny percentage of the massive amount the distribute yearly. It also goes back into the pool so it is still distributed as far as i know.
OK got it and it makes sense. Thanks
