RE: An uninitiated opinion - Voting behaviours
I’m proud to admit the only self voting my account has ever (EVER) done is when a trail I’m previously supporting votes my content. I know when they come through and vote my content, each time I kinda cringe kinda—“danget!” One of those double-edged sword things.
I understand the business aspect of the platform or, any platform for that matter, and having the ability to pay yourself is the ultimate goal. I, however, see self voting, specifically the habitual type, as a form of selfishness. Just my two cents—currently $0.15 but who’s counting?
I’ve always considered a self vote as one less vote I could give someone else so I’ve consistently tried to avoid it. Another nice write-up, @galenkp. Enjoy your day sir.
It's pretty cool that you can make that statement, and yes, you should be proud. I guess the people here are no different than those in the real world and for every person there's an accompanying thought, ethos, plan or understanding.
In popping that vote onto someones blog we might just be bringing them the motivation to stay and write another, and another. If we all did that...Well, wouldn't the steem price rise as we all desire? Who knows?
Anyway, I hope you're well at 9am Wednesday morning. Have a good one.
