LOL. You still don't know the reason.
Whatever you are making and spreading is baseless and untrue.
I'll give you the correct reason on why this is happening.
The amount written on the post is the total value of the post that is it includes the rewards of both author as well as voters as well as people who have commented.
No matter if u edit or not you will be rewarded less after deducting above charges.
Hope this helps
Actually, I hope I'm wrong. I need to be able to edit, just as a bunch of people here say they need to as well.
It's just interesting how a post with over $1250 only paid out $143. I understand you don't ever get what the full amount shows, but that's an 85% drop. That's a HUGE drop.
Tell you what, though, looks like this thread is going to give me the perfect opportunity to test my theory.
I'm not going to touch it, and I'm not going to post anything else today. If the payout comes out in a similar fashion, then c'est la vie.
It was really a matter of deduction based on this information (which is available as a pop-up when you hover over your thread in the "Next Cashout" column of the "Posts" section of steemstats.com), the 85% drop shouldn't have occurred. After doing all the research I could on the subject, and checking out all of the history as it was recorded to my http://steemd.com/@winstonwolfe profile, there are no other reasons that I can surmise why this would occur. If there is an unseen reason, I would need to be informed of that.
Another thing I just thought of as well, the total amount made on the post is still at that 85% dropped rate. If the culprit was the dividing of the earnings, the original amount of $1250 would still be visible on that post. It's not. So what got divided was that final number which appears there now - so EVERYONE involved with that thread got shorted, not just me.
