RE: What wiser thinks of self upvoting
Thank you very much for that information. As I am still learning about steemit, that is exciting to me. I will upvote my own comments and not feel bad.

That is how I'd like it. Just FYI, there are some strong feelings out there against self-upvoting of comments. I have since discovered two bots that are reinforcing this, one positively and one negatively. Gentlebot upvotes comments he likes (according to whatever algorithm he uses) unless they've already been self-upvoted. Smack down kitty has 100,000 delegated SP that he uses to downvote self-upvoted comments to match the value of the self-upvote. I have already posted an article on Gentlebot and hope to soon post one about Smack down kitty. So, while my own opinion of self upvoting hasn't changed, I did want to mention that people are designing bots to "enforce" their opinions in the other direction.
