RE: If You're Giving 0 & 1 % Upvotes, Why Bother Voting? (Plus Know Your Vote's Worth & More)
Someone is upvoting you and you are complaining about it?
I really don't understand.
If somebody reserves the big votes for the really good content, and then some for his or her own content and interactions, for example - rewarding comments, there really might not be enough left to upvote other content which might be of interest.
People don't have to upvote you, you know.
I typically upvote comments with between 5% and 10%, with 100% upvoting for something which I think deserves extra. there isn't really that much left if someone wants to interact a lot in the comments.
If someone upvoted me with 0% or 1%, I certainly would not be unhappy about it.
If you think the amount of money involved is too little, then just regard it as a "Like".
That's another way of looking at it and I appreciate your opinion. I won't negate it because it came from a place of openness and generosity.
My point of view was based on generosity (or the lack of it) too. If I look at it the way you've said, those upvotes are upvotes and they should mean a lot. Thanks for adding your opinion. Readers will have more to choose from and I will be happy if they go with your way of thinking.
Agree entirely with your point, especially the last sentence.
"likes" are always free and have no real value, upvotes mostly offer a useful reward when accumulated for the 7 days, at which time you see REAL rewards, not phony FB Bullsh!t.
If we are happy with FB "like" why can we not be happy with ANY upvotes.
Facebook like has been the biggest ever futile lollipop there ever was. Lol!
