Honey if I looked like you, I'd upvote myself all. day. long...
What is that supposed to mean? Jackass.
Well, with the creative use of language that is commonly used within our Steemit culture I've created a double entendre. One can take this literally or one can derive a sexual innuendo from it (possibly referring to masturbation in this case). I'm very glad you asked, it's important to get to the bottom of these matters. And it shows you have curiosity and a willingness to know more, which is not usually present in people who resort to insults when they don't understand something.
Did I answer all your queries?
Looks to me like you have a tiny
flag.
@whatsup I guess he's horny, you know what Testosterone does to us ;)
Of course i'm against it. The more people self-vote, the less rewards authors get and the less value the platform has. If everyone self-votes, there wouldn't be any value at all.
But it's a hard topic and will probably do a separate article about it soon.
Voting for my own post is something I always do, but I rarely vote for my own comments (I did today to bring it visibility, but as a rule, I tend to avoid it). I feel this is fair, as I only have a 4% self-vote percentage. I think going over 10% is probably a bad move. Hmmmm....there's a lot to think about.
I agree with you 100% here, thanks for resteeming me here.
Yeah i had the exact same number in mind of 10% as a maximum. That would be acceptable, especially in beta / early adopters phase.
I made similar comments in more detail in the main reply I made here......... but as a base reply here in a few places:
Keep in mind some of us write 150 blogs a month on here for content and those are all upvoted, I went into that on here too.
Perspective is important along with the engagement we try and create in the community.
Is there somewhere you can easily view your self-vote percentage?
Nope, you need to make an app for that. I had to do days of work to gather this information.
Yours is 7.5% ($0.664 out of $8.857) since June 20th 2017.
Thanks, that's more than I'd expected actually... I'm on it! ;)
I guess more people would be shocked at their percentage. Small things add up, right? :)
your percentage is very acceptable though, especially as a starting content creator.
That's true. I'm starting to think that it would be great to have the self-vote status indicated somehow (either beside the rep score, or when you click an account and get the small info panel).
I don't have a strong view about it myself, but considering how many in the community do, it would seem good to make it as transparent as possible. I somehow doubt that change would have much support on github though.
i don't know. Ask the OP for information because I have no idea....
I was just checking it wasn't common knowledge. Thanks.
it's true. That is why the algorithm was set up the way it was in the beginning by Dan. He was trying to avoid this very thing.
Not sure about that... it is precisely the current rules that allow for this behaviour - and people will do whatever a system allows them to, especially when profitable - I think the current rules are overly simple and need to evolve to create the kind of ecosystem Dan talks about.
