You're 100% right, it is ALWAYS better when someone else does it.
The self-vote has always held the argument that "my post is at least worth my vote"
As seaweed users self-vote, it equals nothing. As they grow they self-vote as they have little support. Once a user has grown, to me, the self-vote says "I don't think my post is worth anyone else's vote, I better self-vote"
There are stages to accounts that we must all learn to grow through and realize once we have outside support the self-vote is insanely selfish. I've seen some accounts with over 100k incoming votes with less than 25k outgoing votes and self-vote 20 to 30% of their weight. They have tons of support and it is greed and non-community-mindedness that keeps them self-voting.
I self vote because I want a share of the pie. I did when I was a minnow, I do it now and will do it if I ever become a mega whale or something. Without looking my stats I'd say a daily 25 % - 30% of my daily vp goes to me and my girlfriend. The rest to other people, most of whom have a lower sp than me. I guess I am half greedy half generous bastard. Sometimes I wish I could be like you but my inner asshole won't let me!

You're at 8.7% for the week. You need to vote, you two, more to be the asshole you claim. Don't come in here lying saying you're an asshole.
You have a good pie sliced up....
This is greedy pie...

You didn't count @trumpman2 in your equation 😂😂
I looked at the pie. Pie is all I need to view.
I like pies. Here's the one I had this morning, sausage pie:
You put way too many things shaped like that in your mouth.
