RE: We are all cheering about the latest HardFork but are people using it correctly.

Well, here's a good upvote for you because you deserve it, and this post brings up an important issue.

Seems to me there is definitely some misuse going on at the moment... and whereas I could just dismiss it as "the inevitable greed of human nature," I also worry that it is going to hurt the overall community in the long run. That said, most of the witnesses don't seem terribly concerned... and they are the ones who (a) hold a lot of influence and (b) are invested in Steemit for the longer haul.

In a way, I do like the new voting power algorithm because it allows me (and people at "our" level) far more breadth of voting. If I see something truly amazing, I get to reward it accordingly with a 100% upvote, while I can still leave a "decent tip" for an OK post by voting at 5%. Similarly, I can now upvote lots of comments at 2-5%, acknowledging good community interaction without running out of voting power.

I remind myself that other people behaving badly is NOT an invitation for me to do the same... we can but "lead by example," or some version thereof.

Sort:  

Nope I will not be following what they are doing, yes its greedy but in the end they will be the losers as members will catch on what they are doing and avoid them which is what I am doing, I won't vote on members posts when they act like this. And thank you so much :)

When I see those shenanigans, I am starting to take a closer look at profiles... and if I detect ANY kind of "copy/paste comment spam," I'm seriously considering to start flagging stuff like that.

I have never flagged , but starting to think about it, I dislike greedy people
