RE: Holy Cow! Just bought Steem - How I did it
Ok, I was joking when I wrote the original comment which is obvious by the winking smiley face, but after reading your reaction I thought to my myself "wait a minute" is it that bad to vote yourself, I don't do it all the time, if you check my last post I must have written 60 comments and did not vote one of them, but every now and again it's nice to give yourself a pat on the back. I mean if you had a business you would pay yourself right?
I'm not saying steemit is a business, but it is an investment of both time and money, so yeah voting yourself is totally acceptable in my eyes.
Try it, you might like it :)
There is definitely some controversy surrounding the "upvoting oneself" question. I think it is currently just as it should be, and that it won't change in a wee long while (if ever). I mean, you CAN ACTUALLY LIKE what who have written. I usually do. And it's not worth heaps either, it just feels good to be able to give yourself some reward. Plus, it's the #1 reason there are whales on this site (besides having steem as a sheer investment). Having bought steem and invested long-term by powering up should grant you some benefits.
