By having someone like me come along and add my vote to yours so that it's not a lonely self-vote :) It should now get cleaned up if you've joined the @dustsweeper initiative :)
It's done. I upvoted your original comment, and since you already joined dustsweeper, you will get another vote in a day or so to push you above the dust threshold and make sure the value isn't lost.
So, this doesn't appear to have worked... @bafspotlight got 2 upvotes in his original post here, but there was still $0 payout. Am i missing something?
Not sure why it missed that comment (it occasionally misses one of mine too) but I can see dustsweeper votes on other comments that @bafspotlight has made
well, i just signed up. I have a bunch of friends who are < .01 vote value (as is my vote value)... if i can boost their upvotes to actually count I will consider this a win. (even though i don't actually benefit from it). I suppose if i can convince a few of my friends to do the same, we will all benefit :)
Actually you're the one that will benefit as it is the small votes on your comments that get topped up when your friends vote. When they see you getting paid off they may follow suit.
ok, i see what may have happened... your upvote on my comment is currently worth $0.00 (your actual is 0.001, so more than Null, but less than 0.01. your full VP value is still 0.003... so @dustsweeper will still skip your (sole) upvotes. im going to self upvote my top post here, and see if that gets it above 0.00 but below 0.02 so @dustsweeper will upvote it
@sparkesy43 So, i got paid on the first comment; 0.005 SBD, 0.002 STEEM and 0.006 STEEM POWER... but it doesn't look like you got anything (please correct me if I'm wrong)... if it was a 0.028 upvote, and cost me 0.014... I also lost 0.001 on this... I also missed self-upvoting this one- that would have bumped it into profit range
Nah, I don't think I did. Depending on the steem price the initial voter sometimes gets a very small curation reward, but the main aim is to ensure that the person who made the initial comment that got the vote is rewarded and stopping that first from being turned to dust.
As for the exact maths behind it all, @davemccoy and @danielsaori are your guys. I'm just a fan of the emd product
no, unfortunately, those aren't going to be cleaned up, share that vote with another and dusty will happily clean up for you!!
How do I share the vote with another?

Smiles!
So how do we go about it?
Let us do it

Thanks friend
I really appreciate this.

Yep. Spot on. I just threw upvotes on some of your comments, so you should start seeing some benefit over the next few days
thanks! ill follow up here after they hit payout and let you know what happened.

upon reviewing, i dont think my current vote value is even enough. according to http://steemit.serviceuptime.net my vote value is only 0.006.
My original post would still only be valued at 0.007...
confirmed... payout shows 0.01, but breakdown shows .00 for steem, SBD and SP... lets see where this post lands
