RE: Why People Comment on My Posts, I Upvote Them...Really?

in #family6 years ago

Yes it's always a little shock to see how people can be and there is no chance to get the 'why'. But as everybody said - don't waste your time to think about those people. You know for yourself that you don't write bs and you are perceptive enough to know that people do like the conversations with you and don't comment only for the upvote. I would comment exactly the same to you if there weren't upvotes because it's just nice and interesting talking to you. Keep on steeming in your way 😉

I would comment exactly the same to you if there weren't upvotes because it's just nice and interesting talking to you.
But I'm happy to be able to give those votes and try and help everyone around me grow with me. My goal is to reach a $1 upvote before the price of steem rises again...it may not happen but it's what I'm striving for. This will allow me to greatly impact someones reward once the price rises again and just maybe make someones day if they get slapped with a $3 type upvote. For some in 3rd world countries (how I hate that term) a vote that size could be equal to working for a day.

Of course - that's a great motivation to grow. I also wish i could help out more with my upvotes - but that will take some more time. That's what i like a lot about steem, that you really can help each other to grow and that you can direct the votes to those in need or to great projects in the world. I wish i was a whale ;)...

This is what being a mega whale could mean...fun to dream

Yeh - it's fun to dream to be such a big fish - on the other hand, if all like minded minnows would direct their power same time to the same project it could have a big impact. But as in real life people get divided on opinions and work against each other. I'm not sure if i wanted to have so much power as you get to deal with a lot of jealousy and mean people. I think that would make me sick.

Oh I would take the power and the issues that come with it. Not a fan of being in the spotlight, but for the right cause it's worth it IMO. But I completely get your point of view.
