RE: If You Really Want To Stand Out On Steemit, Do This!!!!
Never thought about this. Certainly in posts with lots of comments, it is sometimes harder to read through the comments. I cannot remember upvoting a comment but to tap myself on the shoulder a little bit. I do react sometimes on comments. Even if they aren't posted in a post of me :)
For the minnows it is hard not to run out of Voting Power. When we vote more than 20 times a day, we ran out. We can still up-vote but without making a difference.
A question: whats your opinion about posting a comment without up-voting the post? I do find this hard to do, so I don't. But like told before I quickly ran out of ammo.
IMO, whether I'm a small fish, or when I become larger, if you commented on a post of mine, but didn't upvote the post, I'd be glad to have your input, and thankfull for your attention. There'll always be some people motivated by, and only caring about the $$, but thankfully many Steemians are this way. Do what feels right.
I do feel the same. I rather have a genuine comment that an meaningless up-vote. Both are great but cause I'm still in plankton phase I can understand it.
Also rather have an upvote from somebody who does appreciate my post, than somebody who is it for the curation. (Not that they are getting any with my number).
What I also noticed is that a lot of really big whales aren't posting anymore but still hauling over 300SP a week by curation.
There is nothing wrong with posting a comment without upvoting.
We all know that people, especially those sub 500 SP, run into voting power issues.
You should not limit your commenting simply because you lack the voting power. I would much rather have your comment and not and upvote than neither. With a voting limit, commenting is the other way you can contribute, and you can do that on an unlimited basis.
