Great explanation! Haha - at first, I thought I was being penalized for having violated some unwritten rule of Steemit! While I'm sure that some new users might view this as a negative ("wait, what's going on here, this never happens with Facebook!") i tend to view it as a positive. It means that Steemit is growing by leaps and bounds. As you pointed out, there are bound to be growing pains along the way. As I see it, I paid $0 for my initial share of m&m's, so any that I manage to eat during the day is a pure bonus.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
definitely not penalized - earlier ran into someone who thought their account might have been hacked. i'm glad you agree with me that this is a positive time for things ahead, even though it might lead to struggles now.
that's an excellent perspective, @dominicbasulto, also, @jrswab has a contest where he is granting SP to new users that might interest you, mate.
