RE: The Old Dog Advises: Be Very Calculating And Watch Your Comments Add Up!

in #commenting8 years ago

I tend to avoid upvoting my own comments in order to save my voting power for upvoting other things. I suppose I could vote them up at a lower percentage though...

Sort:  

I'm kind of on the other side of the spectrum. I sometimes need to upvote some of my comments in order to prevent the voting power to be at 100 %. I guess I'm not that good of a curator compared to other users here.

Can't you use the slider bar to set the weighting?

Yes, but I'm only voting with 100 % at the moment, so I still need to do this every now and then, especially when I'm busy and don't have much time for Steemit. However, this will no longer be a problem once the next hardfork comes.

What in the next hardfork will make a difference?

A 100 % upvote will be worth 4x times as much, but will also drain 4x the Voting Power. So after the hardfork you only need to vote on 10 posts with 100 % power to drain your daily voting power, compared to 40 100% votes as of now.

This will allow people who vote with 100 % voting power to give the post or comment a lot more money than it does now.

Thanks. That is very informative. :)

No problem, I'm glad to help ;)

Should be cool to experiment with!

Yes, you bring up some good points. Use them judiciously and follow your strategy and inner compass.
