Indeed, I fully understand your situation, @quenmountain. I really liked his outburst and the same happens to me . Before when I received 35 votes, already passed the $ 100 to receive payment, today these 35 votes do not reach the $ 1 , which causes us a lot of disappointment because it is very difficult to build content with quality and original today . More difficult when you are not a "celebrity" and does not have the whales as their partners.
