I certainly don't see anything wrong with upvoting in your own post. We're all investors after all and I know that I've put some good money in here. Constantly upvoting your own comments is another matter though especially when you don't upvote the original posters comment.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I almost always upvote any comment that I cannot identify as 'spam' immediately. I want to encourage people to read my work and comment on it. That's the whole freaking point, after all.
In fact, I save my 100% upvotes for comments on my articles for exactly this reason.
Yes, agree with @goldgoatsnguns. Unusually upvote commenters to my posts and at 100% as well. Gives them a nice boost for taking the time to read and comment and not just upvote.
As @goldgoatsnguns pointed out. If you give attention (both replies and votes) to your followers they tend to come back. Ignore them and they go away.
It is a simple way to "curate" on your own posts to cultivate what kind of followers you want! :)
I agree, it can go to far, but the only tool we have to fix it are our flags. If everyone used them, it wouldn't be so scary, since nobody uses them, everyone is afraid.
if this is bad thing then developers should remove selfvote button from the screen... and sometime we use self vote in comments to get exposer...
It's all about the reputation you are trying to build. The first thing is to produce content that people like, after that you do your best to find your audience. If a self-vote or two helps that process along, so be it.
exactly...no one notice your content untill it has some good votes in starting days ... so its good to vote yourself to get exposer in the feed ... after you build a good reputation .. then everything works for you...
None of this is a big deal. Every so often Steemians burn off some steem by fighting and fussing over any given topic.
Agree... thousands of steems go in vain in this flagship war.... its very sad thing
Actually, an interesting fact. Rewards that are flagged are returned to the reward pool and distributed with the rest of the votes. So, it can be a benefit when the big guys go wild with their flag wars, if they cancel each other out.
haha !
Some guys are investing in steemit to raise their voting power...so that they can fight in flagging...i read that in some posts...this meant this war is good for steemit....
