Thanks for letting me know the facts about what happened then. I have managed finally to finish the Steemit white paper, and it has bettered my understanding of Steemit - almost as much as you have. I also reluctantly have acknowledged that I just can't curate all the content I want to. It is very frustrating withholding my vote from authors and content I want just to upvote.
I've managed to get my VP back up to 37% after two days of self abnegation. It's one of my main impetuses for why I have been commenting on this issue, and the post I dropped this morning after writing it all night long.
Now, Imma take a nap =p
Thanks again for your always thoughtful posts and comments.
