^ You just copy and pasted a rediculous amount of information that has nothing to do with @grumpycat's post.
Honestly @grumpycat it's posts like this one above, the blurry flower photos, and the replies to your post that say " nice photos" and good work that are just as much of a problem. I would rather have good content promoted early or late and would rather get rid of this other pointless crap that led me away from other networks.
You have a lot of voting power and the freedom to use it as you like but you are enforcing uofficial rules, one could possibly go as far as to say you are creating rules where there are none. If it were against the rules to upvote a post after 3.5 days then they would program it that way, if buying upvotes were against the rules (part of me wishes it was) then it would be banned. All that being said my argument also supports your right to vote as you wish and for what you like and don't like, but you were not elected sheriff of steemit. You are quit famous on here. I'm not sure for the right reasons.
