RE: The high hidden cost of self upvotes

in #philosophy7 years ago

Its not really wrong per say jesse... I don't really see an issue with you upvoting your posts, this article was more directed to upvoting your own comments, being hypocritical, leaving spammy generic stuff on other people's post.

you know... the now classic.... "Wow... thanks for share" or variation of.. not so much your own posts.

Regarding third world countries, you are right for some of them $1 a day could be a big difference, but also they are not likely to have your account size Jesse... how many of them could afford to buy 269 Steem and power up to self vote to that 1 dollar per day?

And to be clear, you are not raping any reward pool, you are someone that I happen to appreciate and everyone else on MSP thinks highly of you too..

And i felt no disrespect in your tone brother.. none what so ever..

Thank you! for clarity.
I do agree on the not upvoting comments part as a general rule of thumb,but I have and will continue to do so in cases were I feel that my input has value and to help it be seen by author.
How many of them could afford to buy 269 Steem, I could not afford that!!!...lol...

I have bought aprox 25 sp w/ bitcoins from faucets.. and that was at 1.25,and 0.88 about half and half...lol average of $1 per SP...

Thank you for not being offended! you are good people ! I appreciate all you do!

This is exactly what debates are for - to see different views. Sometimes we can be blinkered by our own biases.

Again another validation of Steemit - people like you guys can have a fairly heated discussion but you both respect each other's opinion.

Love it! :-)
