Did you notice today Steemit Family that your blog posts are NOT AUTO UPVOTED BY YOURSELF any longer? I bet some of you did not notice this change in code today!!
Normally when you write and post a blog, the default setting is to the checkbox here where my cursor is, in the image below, being checked where you write and format your post-- so you automatically UV (upvote) your own post.
As you can see, it is the little checkbox that says Upvote Post right below where you have the REWARDS option drop down box. It is either a glitch, in the code, or the code has been changed -- so please pay attention to this.
I've been on here 11 months and I have about 800 blog posts up and it has always been auto-checked to auto upvote my post when I publish a post.
I'm not sure why it has become unchecked now, but the norm is to UV your post when you publish. For people with a little more (or a lot more) SP (Steem Power) -- this is a significant change and makes a big difference.
All my posts y-day were fine, so overnight, something changed last nite or very early today in my EST zone, anyways.
Figured this is important for new and older Steemians alike!!!
Good night my friends, I will check in with you tomorrow!!
Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

Nice catch! It still seems like the rewards are to high too. I expected more of a drop by now.
These are the normal rewards by now, definitely. Steem has been sitting between $1.60 and $1.80 for the last week and the rewards pool got pretty heavily drained after HF19... so the fact that rewards still look good is a GREAT sign for steem.
HI, Barry! Here's what happened, from this post by @personz: Self-Voting Will Now Not Be Default Steemit Behavior. That was a quick change, because the request for it was made just a couple days ago. There's been so much talk about self-upvoting because some folks have been self-upvoting their comments so heavily. Supposedly, from the comments in that post, it will help the minnows the most. Have a great weekend!
UV that comment too LOL!!!
TY for taking time to drop that info here my friend, honestly appreciated.
I don't post that often but I noticed that tonight...I just thought
"Oh great! Now I don't even like my own posts" LOL
Hmm, I just clicked on the submit a story button and everything looks normal to me.
I noticed that today, but did you also notice that feed & reply notifications aren't working, or is that just me?
same for me with the notifications!
Hi Guys
I checked and mine is still automatically ticked when I go to the "submit a story" page.
I did notice a while back then when you switch the option off it remembers the next time when you create a new story that it remembers your previous setting.
Not sure if it's just a glitch, but try switching it back on and see on that post or the one after if it stays on for you. I mostly use steemit on the same machine, not sure if the settings is saved locally on the same machine and if it keeps settings if you use steemit on another machine. Also Can't remember if mine went off during the week and that I might have switched if back on again without noticing, but it stays on now.
Hope it helps.
Thanks so much for the update. I actually just noticed this myself early when I posted. I think a change like this might very slightly reduce how many people self upvote their blog posts.
I totally agree with you on this! This could reduce the loss of value on posts I have been seeing recently.
Yes! the first post i made today It didn't upvote my post automatically, i think they do this on purpose to they can save more steem
Good to know. Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up. I posted some pics tonight but did not notice whether it upvoted. I will check that.
