RE: Spare some upvotes?
Come on, don't be like that <3 You know it's not "elite". It's just a happening. The people who attended this year may very well not go next year, depending on where it's held (although I hope that's not the case). And it's not just about SF... It was a great chance to meet people, many whom I look forward to reading even when they stop posting about Steemfest.
I know not going sucks, but I think community-wise, it was a good thing :)
:)
That was just my Aussie sarcasm emerging. I usually rein it in where possible. It was a good post though as I think many people hold their vote back despite really liking what they read.
Someone else commented about your post saying that the vote is simply a show of appreciation. I agree.

Oh, I know you're a big softie at heart, dude <3
And you probably saw I don't agree :P It is true, I believe, in part. But for a lot of people, these money actually mean something. I know a lot of people who hope to live off steem someday (I know, with these markets, but still...) and I know they care about that vote.
I mean, if you upvote my post at 1% or such a small upvote, well, you appreciated it, but obviously not enough to lower your precious VP. It's like saying you're going to help a friend, but only if it's in your way to do it anyway and doesn't take any effort on your part....Just my opinion :)
I'd never vote with no actual money...I mean I have enough SP to vote with money so I can I guess. Many people don't. But still, I agree with you. I was just pointing out that a vote is a show of appreciation I guess.

Oh no, I agree, I'm not talking about the new users who don't have the option, naturally. I mean, it only makes sense, then, but...you know, there's a lot of people who could vote with money and don't and I was thinking about them ;)
You're using Partiko, I see. I've heard a lot of good things, what do you think about it?
I use it sometimes, more just to see if there's a comment so don't miss it. It's ok, a few things I don't like but it means I see comments generally. I think they may develop it more and it will improve.
I still use Steemit mainly.
