We are mammals creatures. Cooperation and generosity are very important for our lives. However some people use it for their own benefit. I think the most important way to prevent this behavior is respect.. If someone respects you, help him/her. If he/she does not respect you, this name is not generosity it's exploitation.

Aha! Another key aspect that you've just brought to the fore is respect.
Believe it or not! These group of opportunists, who like to take advantage of others, could be respectful, yet dangerous. As long as they'll benefit from you, respect is assured. When they feel that they have nothing else to gain from you, disrespect sets in.
I am not yet a steem whale, but have helped a lot of Steemians find their feet, especially Nigerians. When these Steemians felt that they had arrived/they are now acquainted with steemit whales, their behaviour changed. Disrespect set in. What they fail to realize is that I'm focused on my set goals and not in competition with anybody. My reason for joining steemit is totally different from theirs.
I am a Turkish writer. I usually write in Turkish. I met you through the upvote you gave me and I am grateful to you.
Steemit has its own meriotocracy system. so my first goal is to create good contents(post), my second goal is to vote successful contents. These are my goal but your reality. You have already created good contents and I'm sure you'll continue to create beautiful contents. I think the issue is that you are bothered, you try to find good contents to vote but then some of them are starting to bother you. I suggest carry on with good smeeters. As a Turkish proverb says "don't burn quilt when you anger a flea"
I hope my English is correct :D
Wish you merry Christmas :)
