By people like me, you mean sweet and charming? Oh maybe just the ones with enough SP to give ourselves a 0.02 upvote value but choose not to self-vote? š
I donāt upvote myself because Iām a prissy girl. My mentality may change once my upvotes are worth more, because gosh darn it, I want to see my posts in the spotlight on Trending! A lot of us donāt self vote for many reasons. Itās a personal decision with no right or wrong answers.
Weāve all wasted upvotes before learning of the dust threshold. I had a hard time getting my VP out of the 60-70% range, and then to find out that some of those 0.02 upvotes I gave still did not pay out! In essence, when Steem price plunges, your upvote worth of 0.02 doesnāt mean 0.02. By post payout, that 0.02 could now be 0.017. Thatās why I support the dustsweeper. I hate to see a good-hearted gesture go to waste.
I have to upvote my stellar comments :) lol Every 5,504 of them. ;) I usually even promote my awesome comments. Hopefully it will really pay off for myself and this currently "struggling" blockchain in the end.
I have no problem people promoting themselves. I do suggest you be mindful of whose post you decide to upvote yourself to the top. I know @davemccoy doesnāt mind because heās simply a good guy.
For some others, they do like to select for themselves which comments make it to the top and itās good to be considerate of others, especially on their posts. Some higher reps may not like the āself-votesā and may choose to flag you. As I said, itās a personal decision but be mindful too.
Most of us on this page are part of Asherās league of engagement and not to hoot our own horns, but we all have stellar comments. A lot of us choose not to promote ourselves and if we do, we do it respectfully with someone who doesnāt mind. š
I do try and stay away from Germans now. lol I might try and visit London someday but I will probably try and stay far away from Germany. lol FYI don't try and be helpful and provide translation for English speakers that are coming from a contest written in English. I got hit twice.
So far I've done a pretty good job only following nice people. I do need to be very cautious on this site though. I still plan on being a rebel and using the HEAVILY policed introduceyourself tag when it is my one year of earnings. Hopefully I don't get flagged.
You mean Asher's League of Excellence? Do they like to flag? It sucks I can't comment on haejin's page even though I am interested in bitcoin and GBTC. I got flagged there by Bernie.
You should follow me because I'm an awesome rebel. :) lol
Sounds like you are aware of the consequences since youāve been hit twice. š
Why do you want to use the intro tag if youāre no longer new? Get new followers? I can tell you right now that some of those new followers wonāt even pay your post any mind.
Yes, Asherās LOE. I should have said it correctly, lol, Dave and I ran a contest for the logo for the LOE! I would suggest to be respectful there. Asher wonāt flag you for that, but I would give him my respect and not do it there.
As for following people, I donāt even look at everyone I follow. No time to look at my feed most days. I have my favorite authors on gina alert, like @palikari123, Iāve been visiting his blog and only later realized I hadnāt even been following him. š
Iām all for the rebels!
I was planning on doing an introductory blog when I first signed up to help new people. I still think it would have been helpful for new people. I probably spent like 100 hours or more on research and learning and I think it would have helped new people.
I might check it out sometime.
Maybe someday I will make the cut. :)
I say go for it if you feel itāll help people. Iām not the one policing there.
You have succumbed to my will. ššš
Lol, trolling on your helicopter ride now?
It's not mine, it's yours remember?
