Hey buggedout - just for your info mate. Have you come across steemnow yet? It is worth having a look at. https://www.steemnow.com/
Great way to gain an understanding of who is spreading the love and who isn't. ;)
SirKnight however - always spreads the love! Just a loving guy.

Thanks. I have seen steemnow before but I'm still learning the etiquette and conventions of spreading the love on steemit. Let me know if I am getting it wrong pls, 'cos I'm all about the love and I like to get it right :)

We love having you here buggedout. Know this first and foremost. Personally - I hate giving posts less than 50% and try to always award 100% - unless I am running low on SP. Comments - well 10-20-30% depending on the quality. I have never given less than 10%, I don't think. It is ok for Whales to give 1-5% as it is often still worth a decent amount. This is just me though Buggedout and I am certainly no expert in Steemit etiquette.

Ok, thanks for the heads up. I have been trying to keep my VP above 80% (so I can hit big when I need to) and then I'm rationing my upvotes a bit so I can vote more things. Sometimes I vote a post low but then feed the post with upvotes through the comments (like this one). Learning every day though.
