He is not right. The rewards on posts were reset based upon the 30-day rewards pool. So, your post will be paid out at the end of the 7 day period based upon total vote value according to the rewards pool which will be 7/30 days full but not all the rewards pool is being distributed so that the pool is not emptied. It is a balance between filling the pool and paying out rewards. Filling a 30 day pool AND distributing rewards is going to be a balancing act which will take at least 3 months - depending upon the tap mix they employ! The rewards on live posts as at HF17/18 seem to have been thrown into the 30-day fill up - a kind of taxation!
