It would be physically impossible for me to read, comment, and upvote posts from every one of my followers. There are just not enough hours in the day to do this.
I get that its impossible, but having more followers isnt essentially a bad thing, Ive always asked people who have thousands of followers, but follow a few why they do that. No one ever gives a concrete answer, so i chuck it up to the psychological reason: more followers than following means the person is important, the more followers against following one has, the more people want to follow them because they seem important.(this is of cause, my own interpretation of a deeper social effect)
I have seen people like that too but that is another topic entirely. What I'm talking about is asking people to follow you for a follow back. It has no value whatsoever and is a waste of everyone's time.
I see your point. No, I did not make them up and if they see this post I bet they won't do that anymore. I'm also not sorry to show who did this. Yes, their mistake is forgivable because they are so new but it needs to be said.
And then there are the repeat offenders who keep doing it all day long even when people tell them it is a mistake like in @stellabelle's post linked above. She calls them out by name and should and we will continue until people understand to stop doing it.
This practice of self-upvoting hurts the community in the long run and is equivalent to stealing and when someone steals from my community I am going to name them.
probably this,

This post is a prime example of how follow for follow does not work
This looks like a prime example. Hahahah
This isn't a prime example. I'm just bad at english now. Haha. There's a thing called language barrier and lack of sleep.
If there's something I disagree, it's not masking the names on the screenshots (unless you made them up).

I get that too. You have a point there. It's just my opinion that names should be masked.
