The rewards just get distributed to other posts. It doesn't go to larger stakes or smaller stakes. Your stake doesn't have much to do with the author rewards on your posts unless you're a huge stakeholder voting your own posts.

That's a much better answer than I was thinking of, sure 50% of the downvoted/returned to pool rewards go to curators but half go to all other authors who often times aren't big stakeholders. Unless you mean downvoted post rewards go only towards post rewards and none to curators which would be news to me
Something this person also seems to ignore is that it's mostly larger stakeholders who are mostly affected by the downvotes in terms of Hive amount so his point never really made a lot of sense IMO.
OMG, the rewards pool is distributed by stake being used to curate, so yes it does go to the larger stakes. You should know better. Author rewards are determined by the individual stakes of both the curator and the author. On top of that, we aren't just talking about Author rewards, because rewards are split, so there's curation rewards as well, where the higher stakes have the highest vote value and by default earn a higher return from the rewards pool.
