RE: ALERT! Steemians Are LOSING $1000USD Per Week To Randowhale When The Vote Isn't Completed Fast Enough!

in #steemit7 years ago

If I upvote a post as I am writing and publishing that post, then I will get all of the curative points for that same post I wrote or a lot more points or money and the other upvotes from others will be none or a lower percentage? I thought I was supposed to not upvote my own post in the first 30 minutes of posting something. Maybe I am wrong about that. Maybe, people lied to me.

I am not too sure what I think about the whale thing. I think that the whale thing is a service that costs money or whatever you want to call it. Maybe the program can help you spread your articles more to get more followers at the cost of money.

You will only get 100% of the curation payout for your own vote if you vote for your own post. Voting for your own post will not change the amount of curation payouts you receive for other votes made by other voters for your post. The Steemit interface includes an option to automatically upvote your own post, so I don't think there is any reason to wait for 30 minutes if you intend to do that - I think someone got their wires crossed when explaining the details to you.

Why is there an option to not automatically upvote our own posted posts on Steemit? Why would somebody not want to upvote automatically? We can get more money if we upvote our own posts? Then upvote your posts, right? Why would anybody want less money? I love money and I think more money is always better. I thought it was bad. I thought somebody said that. Maybe they were wrong. Maybe, I will begin to automatically upvote my posts if that is more profitable. But how could anybody not want profit?

One example of not voting would be where 'whales' have taken a vow of 'not voting' and so they need a way to not vote for their own posts.
