Yeah, OP got a huge payout for sharing a link. While steemit.com fails to offer a max-payout UI option, here are a few workarounds:

  1. Keep posting, let it self-correct. If the reward really is too high, it's not like it's the OP's fault. People should pay attention and fix their curation logic.
  2. OP can use Decline Payout every so often so that over the course of many days, OP's payouts are limited.
  3. OP can start posting with streemian.com (Scheduled Posts) and set a Maximum accepted payout in the Advanced Options.
  4. OP can use my ruby script to post, which also allows OP to set a max payout.
