I Think As Long As You're A Minnow You Can Upvote Yourself Because Say You Have $0.01 Upvote And You Upvote Yourself 10 Times A Day For A Month :
$0.01 * 10 * 30=$3
So $3 Dollars In A Month Wouldn't Affect The Rewards Pool That Much But If You're A Whale You Should Definetly Help The Community And Upvote Others :)
I've put way more into steem than I've taken out. I powered up with 1k off the bat when it was in the $2.50 range. Why? Because I want to reward and read good content. It saves me time and maybe someday my posts will reward me. It makes social media more fun, and I see the enormous growth potential.
Yes, it's mildly lucrative to like your own comments, but that only drains the system..
It seems that was a time a few of us kept the community strong for what we envisioned it to become.
And then the recent influx of "follow me" "upvote your self" and endless spam, not to mention the porn, came to Steemit and catches us by surprise.
I have to wonder what the marketing department is doing?
I usually upvote other people's post , my aim is to always give to the community so i don't upvote my own post , instead i will upvote interesting contents and comments, though i don't have a lot of steem power yet , thanks for sharing , upvoted and follow
Correct. I have seen posts that only have one comment over and over get voted by the original poster (their own comment) until their voting power is exausted.
I don't understand how this is allowed to exist.
Some things are frowned upon . . . like abusing the self voting power. I mean one vote for your post is acceptable. But, It used to be I've seen people upvote each time they comment. Some whales get up over a dollar a comment.

yea right but its better help someone newbies like you will get return in sometime.. thanks for sharing this post
I'm sure that this post was shared by someone other than O.P. as an example of what is invading the community.
you right
Maybe voting your own posts... but voting comments too? well... no problem it's just better to vote for others.
At least make your comments worth voting for if you want to vote for them... don't make your comment an excuse to get a free upvote.

I agree. Why wouldn't you?
why would you do that tho?
That's what I'm saying. Doesn't make much sense.
yes!
When everyone thinks so, no one gets supported by other users. Not the sense of this platform.

@henry-gant so basically you can use your voting power how you want and nobody is controlling it?

It waste your voting power for other users when you vote for them
man, right when HF19 dropped things were good and upvotes were up like 5x as much as they are now. We'll see what happens with HF20
