I will curate more content. I will sell less votes and possibly not at all. I will continue to use palnet. I will create content at the rate I am now. I will use my downvotes to target overvalued posts on the trending page. I expect to use at least one a day. I will not sell downvotes if such a service appears. I will monitor how well my posts do. If my posts do not get onto the linear part of the rewards curve, I will consider buying votes but only sufficient to get onto the linear part of the rewards curve. I really hope I don't need to do this as I haven't bought votes in almost 18 months.

I stopped selling any votes at all recently after I went to see what I am voting for. It wasn't good.
I use smartmarket to sell votes. I check every couple of weeks where my upvotes go. Some of the content isn't great. Smartmarket allows vote sellers to sell to only those on the whitelist. This whitelist appears very lax. At least there is an option to blacklist anyone I don't want to sell to. My list keeps growing.
yeah, I was doing that too, for the rare occasion my voting power got to 90%, but I recently stopped. No judgment... I'm just sad we are reducing all author rewards when we could have just fought abuse all along.
