RE: Self voting policy: 1/3 to me (max) and 2/3 rds for everyone else

in #selfvoting8 years ago

It really disturbs me when I go on to some posts and see that the creator of the post purely upvotes himself and every comment that he makes.

It is sad to see how greedy some people can be for money but that is what this world is fueled by. Greed and Materialism.

For this site to keep growing and for it not to keep losing users we do need to start upvoting others.

I try to upvote a couple of meaningful posts on my blogs to reward their work and commitment to my work.

I hope this post can spread awareness and lead to people being more giving.
Thank you @neoxian

It may not be greed. As a newbie, there are many types of advice. So far I have learnt;
Vote for yourself
Do not vote for yourself
As a minnow do 100% powerup.
For the community do not do 100% power up
Add many people to broaden the community.
Do not add alot otherwise the feed is a nightmare.
Hunt for whales.
Do not expect whales to care.
Follow trends.
Do not follow trends if there are already many votes....

Alot of (mis)information.

For me now, I trial different methods to see what feels right for me. Right now;

  1. Powerup 100% of my posts...but will change this to 50/50 from today.
  2. Follow the feed as much as humanly possible.
  3. View new content to find new people that add a new positive perspective to my life.
  4. Try to find a blog style that I am happy with.
  5. Not to upvote my own posts. Sometimes I do by accident
  6. Learn more about the Steemit platform.
  7. Introduce friends to the community.

So, for a new world such as this, I am forgiving.

I am less tolerant of people who try to find profiting loopholes, such as bot voting, spamming etc.
