On a related topic...Why does the "rewards" button show $.01 earned in the entire last week?...however, when I look at my individual rewards under the "comments" icon, I have lots of curation rewards showing. I'm not even here two weeks yet, have been blogging and commenting like no tomorrow (100 blog entries , 800+ replies in 12 days) and yet, I've only earned about $8 in SBD and steempower, when my best guesstimates were that I'd have about $20-25 by now.

Yesterday, I received my first downvotes (that I know of) and had a blog entry grayed out for asking these same questions. (Things that make you go "hmmm...")

BIG TIA for any help...
