Frankly I wonder why it's not higher. I don't upvote articles I don't like and I don't really read a lot of posts here. I want to follow the basis on which it was built but voting system sucks here n you know that too and knowing that people vote for just the ones they know, it makes it shitty and shittier, so I might as well atleast get a few coins for myself for atleast my daily basic expenses.

Frankly I respect you for that and thank you on everyones behalf for doing so, but not everyone here is so generous to give away so much. I appreciate that I really do, but you can't expect me to comment on someone's post without liking it right? Not gonna feed them bullshit lies just to a small petty upvote from them.

I would never expect anybody to upvote my articles in case he doesn't like them. However, if he likes them, then I see no reason not to upvote them as well (that's how Steemit is designed to work).
And of course in general you shouldn't upvote articles you don't like just to get upvotes in return. Instead of that just upvote articles which you like ... then you can enjoy receiving upvotes in return without feeling 'guilty'. :-)
