Selfish voting

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

What will happen, if someone will create a thread and a lot of comments to that thread and then vote for his own comments. Did't he reword himself? What will happen if that someone would use bot for this? It could be useful for him to do that I he don't want to be diluted by 10% .

Should we have ability to vote for ourselves?

Sort:  

that kind of behavior would be countered by other whales (aka large crabs) that will see his upvote and raise him one down vote per comment.

It is impossible to detect "self voting" because it can be done with multiple accounts.

So whale could gain something doing this if not downvoted? Or he just don't losing?
He could do it from multiple accounts too, to be not detected by other whales.
