I understand that I should be in "I like to travel" and "I took pic of Eiffel tower and that is interesting because nobody done it before" phase (see the irony), but I need to ask about some things which are not clear to me, and I would like to hear what others think about it.
Most of you already know how things on Steemit are working...
You post something, people vote for your post, every vote have some value, and you get some Steem Dollars...
Value of your vote depends on few things...
There is Steem Power, and at first you could think that this is most important thing but it isn't.
More Steem Power should mean that your vote is more valuable, but again...
You can invest in Steem Power with Steem Dollars which you earn here on Steemit, and also you can invest with some outside currency.
You can calculate your vote value here

But, you see two more things there, Vote Power and Vote Weight. Those are things which I find unfairly and don't understand them quite well.
Vote Power is value of your vote in the moment. When you vote for some post, that percentage goes down. After approximately 10 voting, Vote power decrease by 10%.
That means that your vote will not be worth what you invested, and that it will go down by using it.
Vote power will recharge by 20% every day, but that's not the point.
This limitation looks unfairly to me. Here on Steemit there is sea of good posts which deserves someones full vote, but Steemit have a limit of 10 full votes per user daily.
If Steem Power value is always the same, and it doesn't matter if my Vote Power is 100% or 40% when I am buying Steem Power, how does it make sense that my Vote Power varies? Steemit shouldn't have same price for things that doesn't worth the same.
Imagine that your Internet provider charge you for using the Internet for an entire month, but you had Internet connection only 30 minutes per day...
Is there any sense to invest in Steem Power if you cannot fully use benefits of that investment?
And there is some Vote Weight, but after day of searching, I couldn't find exact meaning of it.
This is one explanation
"Voting Weight = how much Steem power you have. You get Steem power two ways. You can create posts of your own or curate other peoples posts (by upvoting and resteeming them) and get rewards or you can buy Steem and send it to your Steemit wallet and "Power Up" from Steem to Steem Power."
How the hell this explain anything?
It says that Steem Power and Voting Weight are same shit!
Anyhow, as I already ask, do you think that is worth to invest in something that we cannot use like we supposed to?
I know that somebody can say that this is to avoid wasting votes for bad content, but it is on me for what will I vote. It's my Steem Power and I want to use it as I want. In the end, there is some user reputation so there is a way to know behavior of all users on Steemit and to know if somebody doing something which is against community philosophy or whatever...
There is no need fot some additional litimations...
Also, I understand that those are rules and I can accept them or leave community, but everybody should know that communities like this exist because people are sick of bad and stupid rules in "real life" system.
If all alternatives to unfairly system become the same shit as that system, only with different rulers, then what is the point?
I hope that you understand what I want to say...
