RE: Confessions of a Self-Voter
I just had a look at your stats. Pretty impressive. A model steemian spreading the love. Fair play to ya.

I just got 100sp delegated by @paulag last Friday. I want to maximize it's usefulness, but still I am not sure the best way to do that.
Oh did you? That's great. You deserve it.
I try to vote for accounts with a lower rep, less SP than myself or those who try to spread the love. It doesn't earn you a lot of curation rewards as a rule though, but it does make you feel all warm and fuzzy.
I see, @deirdyweirdy. I do the same, basically. But I still take the posts' content as matter, is it okay? What is your opinion.
By the way, I made a meme last year end when I was participating in a meme contest. (I didn't win.) Then some people said that upvoting your own posts and comments is recommended. So I started upvoting my own posts and comments until about 2 weeks ago. It is not about how much I made when I do so, something just didn't feel okay.
Oh I don't upvote just any old thing. There is a lot of good stuff being posted. I mostly keep an eye on the comments sections on posts by writers I like and reward intelligent contributions. It's also nice to add a cent to a vote with only one cent on it, otherwise the 1 cent vote is worthless (if that makes sense).
I really like your meme. I know a lot of people think self voting is ok, and of course everyone is entitled to his opinion, but to me it is indeed like a selfish santa.
Yes, I find that comment section is interesting and could be as important as the article. It is an integral part of the article, it brings the article to life.
And thanks for the chit chat, @deirdyweirdy.
