@mattclarke I think you are onto something here. I really have a dislike for the self-upvoting of comments. Too often do I see someone post a low quality comment and then self-upvote it, often giving it more value than the original post. Then the commenter doesn't even upvote the original post. Greed has become more noticeable since the latest HF.

I do understand why you might self-upvote your own post, particularly if you have pumped a lot of time and effort into. Comments, however, are another matter altogether. Thanks for sharing your views.
