HI, Barry! Here's what happened, from this post by @personz: Self-Voting Will Now Not Be Default Steemit Behavior. That was a quick change, because the request for it was made just a couple days ago. There's been so much talk about self-upvoting because some folks have been self-upvoting their comments so heavily. Supposedly, from the comments in that post, it will help the minnows the most. Have a great weekend!
