Good point. We need to appeal to common sense with a public edu campaign. To be effective we need a hypothetical mathematical model that demonstrates the damage done over time to Steem through self-voting at different degrees:
Percentage of users doing it 0-100%.
Frequency of ave user doing it 0-100%
Measured impacts on Steem economy in terms of growth of:
A. Steem users,
B. STEEM value
C. Steem morale
D. Any other metric
Nope that's really unfair. It's not about the money, it's about the percentage.
Besides it's impossible to prevent self-voting with multiple accounts anyway.

We need to make our case.
I agree. I think the percentage is the main thing whatever your view of what's acceptable.
Here's the tool I was working on yesterday, in case you didn't see it:

Very useful indeed. Thanks. I don't like to waste upvotes on people who excessively upvote themselves.
Good point on percentage. If you want to upvote to bump up a post you can give it 1% instead of 100%.
