You have opened the EYE's of this newbie. It is often the only vote we get, the Self vote. / Pity Vote.

I believe it is also makes the Newbies feel a little better when at least they see the Beautiful Blue Upvote even if they had to upvote their own post, most say they have voted and followed on a post then you see they have not VOTED...?? This happens A LOT!!

It can be very hard to get a Reaction out of folks these days because of the flood of new Steemers. Welcome!!

It also seems as if some FOLLOWERS only follow those with decent sized wallets.. The spam from generic posts is ever so real..
Should we down vote the SPamers?? Not sure on the Steemit way of dealing with them..

Maybe if the Wallet was not Public.. Just thinking out loud.

Thank you for your time and for sharing this very insightful Blog.
It has helped me better understand the Big Steemit picture and the feelings of those around the community I was not even aware of..

HAve a great day!!

Should I upvote my comment?? JK ;)
