RE: SELF VOTING ISSUE AND WHY WE NEED TO MOVE ON
What about the people that can't afford to power up. "Buy steem". There should be 2 separate platforms then. Those that want it for investment " get rich" and those that want to present good content and get rewarded for there effort.
Those who can not afford to power up (or who do not wish to speculate on the future value of Steem with their money) should create content, which is exactly what I've done. But both are investors. One invests time (and perhaps influence), the other invests money.
Just keep in mind, without people converting Bitcoin or fiat to Steem, your content on Steemit will be worthless (in a monetary sense). It's those who want to "get rich" that are propping up your hopes.
Yes I see your point. I follow you for your content and up vote you for it. I still don't like up voting yourself.
I do believe self voting can be done to a fault, in a way that makes some look very selfish, which is not a good idea when you're seeking to build a following.
That's all I'm saying. Not everybody will use it wisely, and I think it is a bad example for new steemians to follow. We already have a me, me society since the 1960's.
That's a fair point.
Upvoting comprises less than 10% of the rewards. I just like to point out HOW BENT people can get, over this issue, in comparison to how much it matters...
SO NOW I'M BENT. who's not being civil now.
