You just screwed yourself and broke the Cardnal rule. Never complain about Steemit or those in power on Steemit. Once you get on their bad side you'll never make any money. That's why my posts when from decent to less than $2.00 even when I get 80-100 votes. But when Steem is dropping like a rock they probably did me a favor so I don't waste times putting content on a site that only pays you for a limited time (2 pay periods) and that is tied to a currency dropping like a rock.
