Hi @oneday1, I think it's not the way it works here, my brother. You should be only upvoting the posts you like, those that seem valuable to you. That's the whole idea behind steemit - appreciating the great content.
Also while giving, we should expect nothing in return. Doing otherwise breaks the very fundamentals of giving! As @shenanigator said in his post - come to give, not to take :)
Wishing you all the best!
