RE: The Beginner's Guide to Steemit: A New Initiative to Bring STEEM to the Masses
Thanks for your response.
I'm curious about why self-voting precludes you from getting delegation. I'm curious to hear more about where you're seeking delegation and why this is an issue. I don't think it's something the average user has to worry about. On the subject of self-voting, I think there's an argument to be made for self-voting. If you believe your content is valuable, you should be able to vote on it. I don't think you should overdo it and only use your stake to vote yourself, but it's definitely an aspect I can take into consideration for this guide. Thank you for your feedback.
I think I'm just thinking ahead of myself as usual! It's not a big concern at all. Just if I wanted to ask someone to represent BuddyUP with a delegation they might look at my self-votes since I'm a young account and use it as a reason not too.
But... it's just overthinking uncertain possibilities! (You need to get that topic in the guide ;))
Of course. I don't think self-voting has ever been an issue for me during my time on Steemit. If you're worried, you can keep an eye on the percentage using SteemReports. Yours looks great, of course: http://www.steemreports.com/outgoing-votes-info/?account=calumam&days=31
I think you're doing just fine, so I wouldn't worry too much. If people think your initiative is valuable (it is), you will get delegations. Good luck!
