I personally loved your content and didn't bother to check to see who is upvoting themselves. I do try and keep my self voting under 2% of my votes but I have next to no voting power so it doesn't matter much either way.

I have also had a friend start to powerdown and leave (nothing to do with bernie) because a bot had an alarm tripped when he spent a full sunday producing content and news in the form of 10 posts. Apparently the bot decided that 10 posts was too much (perhaps it is,) ignored the content, and flags and replies to every post he makes now. He is finished.

It is too bad that a permanent scarlet letter cannot be removed when you live and steem and learn.

I don't want you to leave.
