You did, you have made a mistake, you would not spam on any other platform but you did it here in a hope of getting those likes. It will be really hard to get the rep back as someone who just started out on the platform. Read the posts and intereact with the creators. Don´t spam. Even if you do have exclusivly selfish reasons why you are doing it at least bigger content creators would´ve supported you mate. I ain´t no big content creator, I have a small upvote but I would´ve given you gladly that upvote if when you commented on my video said anything reletable about the topic and did not just said exclent post. Be who you are, don´t be a spammer. Make Steemit a better place because you are here. :)
