Today I have to share an important message regarding comment/ post payouts.
This is mainly geared towards newer Steemians, and Plankton and Minnows that vote with $0.01.
My friend 
Comments and posts awarded less than $0.02 receive no payout. The amount is rounded down to $0 at post payout.
Currently if a post/comment earns 0.001 to 0.019 SBD worth of rewards - this is rounded down to 0.00. If a post/comment earns at least 0.02 SBD - then they receive their reward.

This is a big deal that I don't think a lot of Steemians know, especially not plankton like myself.
This affects how we should be voting if we want others to receive any payout from our votes.
As I appreciate that people take the time to read and watch what I have to share, currently I try to respond to and upvote every non spam comment on my posts with 10% vp which equals $0.01...
Or so I thought. It's actually not rewarding them at all unless their comment is upvoted by someone else too, raising it over $0.02.
In my case I'm actually "wasting" my voting power giving out ten 10% votes on comments which could be used to give out one 10 cent upvote (or five $0.02 votes etc)
Going forward I will keep this in mind when upvoting comments and always make sure it's set to 0.02 or over.
If your vote is less than $0.02, still vote as you please of course, but keep in mind that there will be no payout unless the post receives more votes.

Did you know about this rounding down of 0.01 cent votes?
Will you change your voting strategy in the future?
Do you have more info regarding this subject?
