Default Are micro limits harder to play than medium or high stakes?

Was just wondering, because it seems like the standard continuation bet never work at the micro limit. However, it works ~75% of the time in medium limits.

So is it easier to play solid poker in the medium stakes than micro limits?

Odds of getting a serious answer in bbv:

Yes - 1000-1
No - 6/4
Bastard!!! - 1/3

Okay, I'll give you a serious answer.
Micro stakes players don't play as well, they draw out without odds and it's harder to put them on hands because they can play ATC.
If you don't realize how this makes it easier to make money, then you will get slaughtered higher up.
