Aggrandisement is about increasing power, status or wealth - denied payout or not - it was promotional and therefore self-aggrandisement. Gotta side with @Ned on this one.

So...what would you call the fact that Ned felt the need to upvote his 3 word comment to almost $3k?
I doubt it was for the money - it was probably so nobody could dethrone his comment. Promotion is obviously the whole point of the platform. He must have thought the EOS promotion was important enough to address - but he is showing the inherit weaknesses in the Steemit ecosystem. Zeus shouldn't come down from Mount Olympus to interefere unless there is a REALLY good reason. There is no censorship on Steemit IF you have enough SP - otherwise - self aggrandise with care ;)
Right there, that's self-aggrandizement.
That's not self-aggrandisement- he is the official voice of this platform - Dan gave that up a long time ago. Didn't he use the company SP as well? He obviously felt the posts were negatively affecting the user experience - I don't think it had to do with an increase of power or status on Ned's part. These guys obviously aren't sending each other Christmas cards - I'm sure @ned will probably power up whatever his comment gets paid.
Wow
It's right..
Lol Ned....
