You are proving that you don't know how Steem works.
Powering Up does not burn Steem. There is no shame in self upvoting, as long as there is some kind of value to the post. Who deems there is value? People expect different things. Someone might flag your self voted comment, others might upvote it, even others might do nothing.
You seem to believe users need to behave one specific way. While acting like I am the one trying to impose my will upon others.
when did I say powering up burns steem?
you are proving that you do not take the time to pay attention. why would anyone flag me for upvoting my own comments when it is a standard feature of the platform?
If you'd actually read @dengised's introduction post, which had a whopping 35 words it would've kept you up all night, you'd know that they were transparent about their intention to grow their steem independently of others.
I am not the one flagging people who I think are not using the platform as I deem appropriate. you are a fascist, and like this crazy person here who thinks everyone else is mad.
double irony when you don't realize who is the one being ironic here.
peace out dude.
