Oh man :) I was actually wondering if there's anyone feeling the same way I do. Since I started on Steemit, I got lots of these beggar comments and got quite dissapointed that some people are THAT desperate - "Follow me and I follow you!" or "Upvoted, so upvote mine too and follow me, or I get my vote back!". So THANK YOU for writing this, I'm relieved now :)
