RE: About Author Etiquette and Forced Votes
This might be the best explanation of my own view on it. Much better than myself trying to explain it :)

I love that you acknowledge this explanation as a "better" way of explaining what u meant.
This shows very honorable character.
That is why I follow you because you set an honorable example. I appreciate UPvotes of course but do not expect them. To expect them just because, is delusional and greedy.
UPvotes should only be made if someone WANTS to. I also feel a comment is a more thoughtful and respectful response than an UPvote, even if not more valuable.
Thanks! I completely agree that a comment is much more valuable than an upvote when having a proper discussion.
Yes!
ESPECIALLY when like me you have NO SP to give any value to an Upvote anyways nor many UPvotes to spare.
Thanks. If Steem is going to be as successful as other social media platforms, then the social part should be cultivated too. If someone is just out for the dollars they dont really care about achieving a platform that as quality and/or fun, original, informative content.
True, on the other hand, the main goal of steemit is the bootstrapping of a new currency. I think the problem with it now is that people just want to cash it out right away. Perhaps with the addition of marketplaces this could improve. The development is crucial at this stage. Most people are unable to create high quality content. Not everyone is a content creator.
And curation rewards are too low to really make something out of it at this stage.
