Ummm, I don't think there's a single consolidated list of 'rules'. It'd take going through all the previous hard forks/updates and the original white paper.
If you were referring to the curation penalty...that wasn't so much of a rule as it was how the code handled things. Voting before the 30 minute mark (15 after the hard fork) isn't breaking any rules..it just forfeited parts of your curation reward and gave it instead to the post's author.
Was there anything in particular you were curious about? I might be able to help out.
In an older jerry video he says to always upvote i guess ive been takibg outdated advice or didnt fully understand until now. Seems kind of like a hassle. But im still learning!
This is still the case right now..he is/was correct. Personally, I do upvote my own posts (though almost never my own comments) and have recommended that to others. (This would be a little different discussion if it's a whale or extreme cases.)
This is an upcoming change (though I've not seen a exact date yet) and I'll be changing from voting on my posts on creation to the 15 minute mark. Just keep an eye out for it being released.
Thank you!
No problem. I definitely didn't want to be making you worry or be more confusing. :)
Well, I have almost no idea how the things happen in steemit but I have fun anyway :)
It seems there is a code blessing on all of us! :)
