I don't understand why they make it like this, so after 7 days your post is shown but you don,t earn anithing. It is not fair and i see many amazing posts here and people see the posts in every day because they have good info and someoane vote and somane not just because they now the vote value is nothing. I think now it is a bit hard to change this but i see a thing that can be done. They can make the old posts earn money forever but just a percentage lets say 10% or 5% and 5@ to be used for something, maybe advertising or i don't know so in this way everybody wins. I am not expert in this but i think it is a good ideea.
