Would be great if we can upvote some of the pieces being written on Steemit in the FAQ / or 'Steemit for Dummies' - because lots and lots of Dummies live on Steemit.com, and this would explain a lot to new Steemians :D I'm affraid some Steemians will fall for the 'trap' in section 3 of your post, although I indeed can't believe this is a real business case... And I'm also very very affraid from the comments below your post even though posts like yours are written, the real Dummies will never read and never learn ;-)

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
