I admit I upvote my own comments but then again who does not its all an even playing field correct? If I can do it so can anyone else and if steemit did not want me to do it then it would not be offered. But yes you should at least upvote the article if you spent the time reading it and enjoyed it.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
A big difference between someone who upvotes his/her own comments, especially for visibility, and one who does it without upvoting the article.
This takes on different meaning if you write a comment that supports the article which many do. I mean, if you blast the article because you think it stinks while upvoting your comment, that is a lot different than omitting an author upvote while posting great article I really liked it.
