I didn't pay anything for the HSBIs I won them. And HSBIs wasn't even 10% of the total value of my votes.

You didn't pay but someone dit though, and your post votes were a lot of autovotes
Somebody paid for ALL votes that don't trace back to the original premine. You bought or earned HP and that HP powered votes. In this case, one person submits the HIVE and designates an account, and then they get their curation back as votes.
It's not complicated, but some antagonists are willfully refusing to acknowledge that it's still curation, just layered so everyone receives their curation reward as votes.
Saying HSBI is curation is dumb, it votes but doesn't curate. Curating include the action of reading the post and giving it an apropriate share of rewards.
You can do a random dbuzz post and get few $$ hsbi vote as long as you hold enough units, if that's not vote buying idk what it is, oh my bad it's not vote buying it's "layered curation".
That's the whole issue with HSBI, you get reward even for spam/ect
That's most of Hive votes though. What's the problem with that? Auto votes uses the same stake as non auto votes.
Autovotes are bad, they dont reward the posting according to the quality of the post.
Autovotes are great because they allow people to support the accounts and/or communities they want to support, and because it's the only way some people are able to use their voting power. Letting your voting power reach 100% is losing money.
You can vote manually or follow curation trail that upvote quality content
Vote manually is more work intensive. Following a curation trail is also an autovote. Both are good options depending on what you want. If I had a significant stake I would certainly set an auto vote on some accounts because I would want to support them.
Btw post quality has maybe 1% to do with the votes you get. Most importantly it's the connections you make (both positive and negative). Also, your own stake but that's just an easier way to increase your positive connections and make it more difficult to be affected by negative connections.
A new or unknown user could write the next Lord of the Rings in here and they would get barely any votes. Someone with good connections posts a picture of their lunch and they get $50.
which doesn't mean it's fine like that
