The thing is this, I know why this happens to thousands of posts each day!
Is that really the truth though..? -Probably.
More than 43,300 users are registered on Steemit at the time I'm writing this post. ( Check http://steemstory.com/ by 
How on earth would I know the perfect time to create my posts?
Due to some serious research. And due to some major failures..
Is it accurate? -Not at all. That's impossible.
"Why would I be reading this post if you don't know what the F you're talking about?"
I'm an addict. A Steemit addict that is. I've been online for an average of 15 hours per day for the last 3 weeks...
I know.. It's ridiculous.. But I can't help it.
During the last 10 days, I've studied. I've tried to find a pattern. A whale pattern. Not because I desperately need or want the upvotes but because I want the truth. I need the truth. I need knowledge. I want to know what I'm actually doing and what's going on..
What did I find out..?
Whales like 
He also frequently upvotes a bunch of photos in the photography category and he's also quite active in the "fiction" category too. Both new and old content is being upvoted by bernie. Perhaps that's why he's one of the "favorite whales" on steemit?
Anyhow fiction, photography, marijuana and recipe related content, and you might have a shot at one of bernie's upvotes! :)
The major whale, 
How come..?
From my perspective.. It's because he doesn't spend the same time upvoting peoples content that other whales are doing, so he focus on the introductions.. However Ned also frequently upvotes content related too "blockchain" and "bitcoin".
He also finds the necessary time to actually comment on different topics.. And I've seen both him and bernie reply on comments "far down" the list in some topics, so they spend some real time doing what they do. -That's awesome!
All of the whales are frequently upvoting anything steemit related too!!
So, I could obviously continue with other whales too... but I won't.
Instead, I'll give you this..
And before I dive into this, let me just tell you that I don't know these people in person and I don't know if any of them are the same person or not.
Let's continue..
Take a look at this:
That's a few of gavvet's recent posts. That's some great earnings and I do believe he deserves every single penny.
Wait a minute...
Didn't people talk about the 80/20 thing.. The Pareto principle..?
The Pareto principle (also known as the 80–20 rule, the law of the vital few, and the principle of factor sparsity) states that, for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.
Anyhow..
Just to prove my point even further..
That's four ( 4 ) different posts.. Within 24 hours. And all of them have pending payouts of loads of cash..
Still believe in that Pareto thingy..?
Let's dig some more into this..
Do you see anything these 4 different screenshots have in common..?
Yeah, that's right!
I've even heard that all of these accounts are 
The only reason I pointed this out is due to the fact that other people are putting in hours of effort, just like
Also note that the screenshots I shared are old. Check out gavvet's blog for the current numbers.
We know.. Life isn't fair..
Seriously though.. And this is just one mans opinion..
Wouldn't it be better to spread these upvotes on other peoples content instead..?
I mean, upvoting 4 posts from the same person, the same day.. Isn't that a little too much?
As I've said several times already. I know that gavvet splits the cash. However, it's still gavvet's account, and 4 upvotes to the same account, the same day on 4 different topics.. That's way too much in my opinion.
And what follows next is what I've already said above.. More whales, dolphins and minnows are obviously upvoting the content, as it's get to that "trending" stage very early.
We are all here to provide quality content, to bring more people to steemit and to be a part of this fantastic community and we all are grateful for this opportunity.. People can earn money by creating posts..
And that's truly amazing!!
but .. wouldn't it be better to share your upvotes with other people so they have a better chance of earning..?
Note that I have nothing against any of the people I talk about in this post. In fact, it's the other way around. I respect all of them. I respect them and this community so I brought this to the surface. I see things like this as a problem.. A major problem if we are trying to make #steemit the community we want it to be.
