There is a particular bot called sad kitten that downvotes people that self vote. This needs to be eliminated. No reason for it. Self voting is investing in yourself and how can you expect to invest in anyone else with confidence knowing your own votes for yourself, which you by rights have earned hands down (and I know it's opinion...all the more reason to nullify such a bot) are being degraded? Just saying, you want to expose manipulation of power and bots...that's a good one to target.
