Yes, you're right it drains your power fast....
When I was a newbie I would comment 100 times per day and only vote on 10 of them
However, once you get more than 500 SP you can choose to only spend 1% of the power on each vote, so you can vote 1000 times.
Cheers!
Wow! ANOTHER clear and very precise formula even a non-math genius like me can work with. One of my saddest heart feelings whilst commenting is that my upvote value is usually all of $0.00 so I'll be happy when it builds more. Still, 'heart value' as I coined yesterday, is priceless. ;)
Thanks for asking, @wildermanjnm!
I agree.
A vote is a vote no matter the amount. Bigger votes make more impact, but any vote helps and is greatly appreciated. Cheers
