In case you're not aware @coinlend, there is quite the debate here on Steemit about whether people should be up-voting their own comments... Especially when those comments don't actually add to the conversation and are obviously just someone draining the rewards pool for themself. No offense, but "Thanks for the great content" is worth maybe a penny, at best. Since I looked at your comments, and they're all spam like this, then upvoting them for $0.50 or more, I'm going to flag them whenever I see them.
That is a very good thinking and yes it should be like that , up voting is meant to be for others rather than accumulating it for one own self all the time. We have a trumpetrobot in our steemthat community who is also doing the same , but in a different manner and rewarding only those posts which are not self voted. A pretty cool thing to offer.
I don't really have a problem with people up-voting their own posts, or even comments honestly, as long as there is actually value in them. I've left many comments that are many paragraphs long, and I feel those have some value that would be nice to have paid out.
My problem with self-upvoting is only with people (or bots in this case) spamming worthless messages, and draining the reward pool to pay themself for them.
Love the power of this up vote :) Hard work and consistency pays at the end of the day! Quite motivational:)

That's a pretty cool thing to have :-)
