RE: Lost my cool a bit and stopped self-upvoting a few days ago.
I agree with you 100%.
Its part of the system and any member is free to use that option, yes also the big players in my eyes. Its written that way so why and how can such a thing be wrong?
My vote is not that strong, I think I am a little dolphin by now and I do vote a lot on others and I am in a vote guild to make sure I vote when I am not here. I think as long as you also vote for others there really is nothing wrong with a self upvote for your hard work.
I think in time it might go away and then I will also support that!
I salute you and I think you are doing a great thing to make a statement.
plus i think that your reply to me should be a post because its written amazing and really makes a point about the witch hunts that are starting to pop up more and more here these days.
ditto that, I just voted on it - you can always edit it after you've given yourself time to cool down and then post :)
Thank you, I am glad to know we are on the same line on this subject.
It was my innitial plan to also make a post on the witchhunting subject. But I also know that as long as I am angry that is kind of a bad idea, hahaha.
And indeed as long as it is there, you and I decide if and when we want to use it. Just like voting for friends or those who we think make great posts.
Freedom of expression I think is important for this platform, and these witchhunting innitiatives should really be discouraged by a combined Steem community.
Have a nice day!
