yeah... it's amazing how many people out there do this. Aside from what you just said if people upvote posts and comments of others more people will come to your blog plus even when people comment they are spending time and thought to what they write otherwise a well thought comment would be valued the same as the good ol' "Great post, good work, upvote"
Oh well guess people just think differently
Wait you spent time to comment on my post? How dare you earn an up vote for that, especially if it added some insight or otherwise just was funny and original? Thanks for reading!
Haha upvotes are not for those who interact with us and if we need time to write an upvote we are most certainly do not deserve upvotes.
I enjoyed reading it and showing the 'Steem White Paper' brilliant maybe they just haven't read it yet...
I employ everyone to read through it even if you don't fully understand it all, it is written fairly straight forward and really helps explain what Steem is supposed to be.
