Hi @lukestokes, I am so happy to read this. I am only a lowly one here on steemit but I really am not a supporter of self-upvoting and bots, bots, bots.

I prefer to go 'au naturel'. Although I have increasingly been feeling like a wierdy wierdo as everyone seems to be happily SUVing and licking the bots all around me.

I thought I had totally misunderstood the rules of the game.

It ain't worth much yet, but you have my witness vote. Thank you.
