Maybe is something I do not understand. (Or I do it wrong?).
Does having tiny wallet (60.9 Hive power, 0.000 LEO LP) is enough excuse to make massive SELF-UPVOTES?

Nobody is harmed?

Post your thoughts here.

Sort:  

Upvoting is one the incentivized way of encouragement. Also, a form of engagement with others So SELF-UPVOTES does not do any as mentioned. Rather otherwise.

Whether tiny or fat wallet, its not advicable! My views.

I've accidentaly Self voted while I was reading hive comments on my smartphone, on that note I've also accidentaly flagged myself too. Lol!

You won't gain anything significant from doing that. When I see self-votes it puts me off supporting that person. Let the community decide what your content is worth.

I personally consider self upvote ethically wrong. This right should be given to other curators.

SELF UPVOTE IS NOT GOOD NO MATTER HOW MUCH ONE HAVE IN THE WALLET

#THREADS

Well, this may sound funny but I see Self upvoting as a selfish behavior, and not in line with what Upvoting is all about, which is encouraging other user's contents.

#thinkingaloud 🤔

Interaction is key to grow on the platform. It’si mpossible for him to self vote his way to earning more hp. Having 60hp even makes it messy, it's notworth shit in the larger scale when compared to interacting and getting votes from others.

That's not enough reason to do self vote. Even with such HP and LP you will be getting nothing. I think many. Choose to do that just for selfish interest.

Even with a large wallet I will never encourage self voting

will I say is selfishness or self-centeredness, the funniest part is the tiny wallet like mine lol

And again...

Where is my MUTE button ???

maybe one things to add as this platform keep improving. I miss the mute button

And plz note - I have in mind here only those short 1-5 word long COMMENTS.

Not full size root posts.

I have some questions ...

Are you suggesting that self-upvoting full size posts is ok?

Why is it even possible to self-upvote at all if it's widely unaccepted?

Is there any function or accepted use for self-upvotes in any circumstance?

Is it "OK" or not - still arguable. I don't think selfvotes should be TABU in all 100% of cases. I can justify them in some degree, especially if this is used to raise visibility. But 2-5 word comments are a totally different story.

I'm completely with you concerning low effort ultra short stuff 👍🏽

How does a self-upvote raises visibility?

/2
If one put BIG effort, maybe 4-5 hours or more in creating long pots which brings value to the readers - why not let him honor this job with his own UV like all the others can.
"If you don't value your own job - why others should do?"

Boiling it down to a rule of thumb:

NO for low effort posts/threads and YES for high effort posts/threads
