It could be a bug and further analysis is suggested. if possible.
Specific example:
in the past 24h I had:
- 3 posts
- 5 total edits of those posts
One of the posts that had it's payout a few minutes ago had a value of over 900$ before the Payout, total Payout was 344.352 SBD and 0.432M VESTS. Now the post is showing 688$. It's a difference of over 200$.
This is the post: https://steemit.com/steemit/@anduweb/billboards-nah-i-rented-the-top-banner-space-on-one-of-the-most-renowned-blogs-in-romania
This is due to the pending payout displaying total post rewards, including curation, and the post-payout total displayed being only the author reward. It's confusing and needs a change, but it's not due to top-level post penalties.
Shit, I edited my post like 3 times yesterday, so am I going to be penalised if my next post is within 24 hours?

You should be fine
Sorry, @cryptogee . Didn't mean to alarm you.
