Excellent post mate. I really don't understand the dynamics of steemit so can't make a completely informed opinion but I don't understand why we are even allowed to vote for ourselves (post/comment) at all. Alos I saw a post today where it showed that the top voter was able to give a reward of over 1000 dollars estimated reward. That is crazy! But I think most have become very aware of their votes now. My own vote is only worth 6cents so not very much but I have noticed that my comments are not being upvoted like they used to be.
Really enjoy being a part of steemit and the incentives are great but there is definitely a lot of abuse which is not right and as always it is those who try to play fair that suffer! :(
Thanks for sharing your thoughts @ehiboss!
