RE: SteemLiberator Launches Steem Account Creation Service
Okay I see you have not replied --please let me rephrase! Is it fine that I upvoted my previous comment? Should I remove it? Well I'll go check those tutorials ASAP...!
It's like fishing coins out of a wishing well or eating leftovers off a stranger's table at a restaurant.
Be better than that. Be classy.
People respect classy.
I get that part... and it does make sense. But being practical --is it gonna do something bad to my rep "in reality"? I mean, upvoting my own stuff? I've read about some good-reputed authors being okay with it; you clearly are not, but...
is it gonna hurt me --or the community-- in truth?
I ask because it seems you would know, thank u for all these replies
:)
I won't downvote you for it, but I might like what you've written, decide to follow you, then notice you upvoted your own comment.
That's when I decide not to follow you.
now, does it really generate earnings --or losses-- upvoting one's own stuff?
i guess u could get a few cents out of it, no? still not really justifiable --i see it
It works. You get the money. It's just not a good long term plan.
I don't even upvote my own posts.
I'll occasionally upvote one of my own comments if I want it to hit the top of the pile, though.
Ah, "hitting the top of the pile", now I get it...
I was thinking about "making more earnings"...
So it is a practical means to the --exclusive-- end of promoting one's own comment, would you say?
Makes sense --I am right now removing upvotes from my own comments...
I mean, in the same train of thought;
Upvoting replies I have received --like, all of them, as a rule of thumb--
Would you agree with that?
I guess I could think of a non-applicant situation or 2 --like flaggable replies for instance...
I upvote insightful, constructive comments on my own posts.
I like people to know that I'll thank them for the effort.
Sure, sounds very well, very spot-on... Thank people for that effort, and not so much for comments like "cool, thanks" or "nice pic, nice writing" (and even less for "F4F, L4L" :| )
The rule-of-thumb of not upvoting my own stuff also allows me to save Steem Power, right? I suppose the same to replies; if I upvote every single reply received, my SP plummets...
