I mean is it true? I was asking because I am trying to better my understanding. Is it true?

Yes it is. For example, If you upvote at your current Steem Power level your vote is worth around $0.10 so you take very little from this pool. If a whale comes along and his upvote is worth $100.00 he takes a much bigger chunk of it.

Oh wow... I just got a $190 upvote from someone, So my other ones may go down a little. I see how it works now :)

OMG! $190 Holy moly mate! That is lick a whale kicking you right in the face! Lucky and congrats! Someone really liked that post!

And I love the whale kicking me in the face thing lol

Hehehe. Awesome mate. Glad it happened!

Lol and they did. SOme of my $70 ones went down to 60 something

Yeah, same here. I think this is the case for everyone. It should balance it out in the future though. I think it's the huge amount of new users and also not knowing that they shouldn't vote on everything just for fun.

And that is a good thing. @adil was posting about how not enough people invest real money and too many are powering down and cashing out

Yeah, they are not seeing the value in keeping your steem here... A bit sad... I power up everything!

I get it now
