I like your explanation of your behavior on Steemit in relation to commenting and upvoting. I still don't know why people keep on begging others for votes or such. For myself, I can relate to what you are saying about sometimes voting on the person behind the post instead of voting for the post itself. I think everyone on Steemit just needs to have a nice time writing nice things and let the community organically vote, comment or blog. Also, I think it is just a nice gesture of you to send free gifts across the globe. Just keep on living life! Cheers
