RE: Yes, It's Okay to Upvote Yourself and Your Friends

in #steem7 years ago (edited)

What's really bugging me is the rampant self comment voting going on.

I've been trying to be a good example and resist the urge to do it, but there are a lot of greedy people on here draining the reward pool through self votes on useless comments.

How would you feel if I gave myself a vote like this, 10 times every day ?

I'll remove this vote within a day, its just to illustrate a point

Sort:  

i swear I would feel very upset ,maybe we could implement limit on self votes or reduce % reward for it

lol....and a good point it does illustrate. @jerrybanfield was talking about the same thing. Well said...well articulated. Thank you for this

It bothers me too. It wouldn't be difficult to build a comment self-vote canceler. Maybe there's a whale out there who would be willing to donate some Steem Power to such a project.

If people knew they were risking losing their vote by self-voting, they would self-vote less and go find more valuable things to do with their votes.

If I get time and nobody else beats me to it I'll make a shaaaame bot that reports the worst abusers.

Perfect. It could even include veiled threats of flags. :)
