I wish I had read this before sending $0.40 SBD

Hive account@ninjawhale do NOT give a huge $ boost to your post (Although yes it can be profitable at certain times). Instead we vote with all of our accounts giving your post a boost in upvotes. This will give your posts more exposure. In return you get more votes from users.

How does getting 40 votes worth nearly nothing get you "more exposure". How does this get you more votes from users? Do you resteem the post also?

It can be profitable at certain times? I've fallen for this kind of stuff before, send in $0.50, get $0.35. At least I recooped most of what I spent!

Here I sent in $0.40, oh look 38 upvotes worth $0.00, one worth $0.01 and another worth $0.03. Great, I turned my $0.40 into $0.04, thanks for moving the decimal place for me. That's a 90% loss!

It's like a vending machine offering a candy bar with a sign explaining that THIS vending machine (Hive account@ninjawhale) may only get 1/10th of a candy bar, we recommend you try these fine vending machines ( Hive account@randowhale Hive account@minnowbooster) that will give you 1 1/2 candy bars for the same price.

Yes, I do now understand more about Hive account@ninjawhale. Remove "whale" from your name. I've been robbed by a ninja.
