Or what's happening with the 'expected payout' it hasn't increased in sometime now...

Can I buy a Vowel or a Clue as to what's going on?

The expected payout is what you can expect to receive when p2pool hits a block. It won't change much unless your % of the pool's hashrate changes.

The only place I find the word "expected" is on the NastyPoP payout rates page. That page shows only past payouts. The "vs. expected" column is based on math calculation of hashrate and compares past actual payouts against what a miner could mathematically expect from mining hardware at that time.

Thank you Nonakip for the response and your time on this matter.

Please note "expected payout" also appears here (i'll check the other pages and advise):

https://nastyfans.org/miners/

This is an exact copy of content:

NastyPool miners

This page lists the Bitcoin miners active on NastyPool over the past 24 hours. It shows the hashrate of each miner and marks accepted P2Pool shares. It shows the payout address and expected payout to each miner for the current P2Pool mining round. It shows the payout method chosen by the miner.

I am understanding that the Hash rate is low these days, I was only comparing my first 2 months of experience with NastyFans and/or P2Pool, with the last couple months where the "expected payout" seemed to CLIMB and then HOLDS whereas for the last couple of months, it hasn't climbed much at all, and it drops significantly.

i'm in full agreement with "not looking to make a fast buck" @ NastyFans or P2Pool, or Bitcoin Mining in general, i'm just trying to learn
how this 'all works' and get the proper perception via NastFans/P2Pool and you are helping to do that, thank you.

By any chance, is there anything available 'out there' where it gives a a visual as to how the whole block chain, and miners/farms, and blocks, and Block Rewards work on a Global/Pool/Node basis?

Thanks again as always to You, OgNasty, and NastyFans!
