RE: It's raining tokens are you getting yours?

As a strategy for the health of the steem platform this is a very bad idea.

At Steemit, I can run down the list of new posts, upvoting from there without even catching a glimpse of the actual post itself.

There are people that do this kind of thing but they tend to be new to the platform and do not understand what is really going on.

Newbs often vote on 100's of posts thinking that they are going to make some steem but end up depleting their voting power down to zero.

We get just 10 x 100% upvotes every twenty four hours. If a user just votes continuosly on random posts it will not benefit them at all and because we can see all activity on the chain this is easy to track.

Voting for content that you feel brings some value to the chain and that other people may find useful is the key to successful curation.

With hardfork 21 coming along. Those with good curation skills will benefit everyone.

Curation is a skill that has to be leaned like anything else and auto voting can aid curation up to a point and only once you have found a content creator that consistently produces engaging content.

The steem ecosystem is a steep learning curve for just about everyone.

Have you ever been to steemfest or had a meetup with other steemians? If you haven't I suggest you try to meet some.

There is a very strong sense of community here but you mostly see this side of things when you meet people in real life.

It is great when you meet the person behind the username that you may have been talking to for a couple of years online. Because you share the same interests it's always great fun.
