My point 3, i know has different angles of looking at, @soyrosa. I agree. Still, i think that the one constant, irrespective of how we individually see it, is this: it is unethical.
What is the moral of upvoting? In the Quick Star guide, it is said Upvotes are Steemit's way of saying you like someone's post or comment.
Reading my conversation above, i had clearly spelled out my interest, (....You could start by reading my work...) in such a manner that left the person with the freedom to weigh and see if he/she liked, and yes, i was looking forward to his/her upvote!
But see the response...i still think that to be unethical.
We hope that the abusers/dummies come across such articles and read, and hopefully change. The idea, for us, is a steemit experience that is interactive, enjoyable.
I hope that we can sometime find common ground on such practices as outlined in point 3. Otherwise, thanks for your thoughtful deliberation. I am following you!
Yes, that would be amazing, to find a real 'guide' and agreed upon response to behaviour on Steemit.com that's unethical or unsupportive of the platform.
What I also believe, however, is that not all new Steemians know they're behaving unethical. I really like your patient response (pointing them to great explaining articles and encouraging them to become cool Steemians :D) to those people on your other comments! I might take an example in that instead of what I do now, which is ignoring those people.
So thanks for your contribution to the platform, and thanks for the follow as well! <3
The pleasure is mine. Thanks
