I do see a lot of this, and your post almost makes me feel a certain way about @steemfreelancers, and the account itself will probably only vote on posts about freelancing, because that's what it was set up for, though not all those votes will go to people who have joined the group.

I do charge a one-time fee for membership into the Steem Freelancer's Guild, but I will never require members to vote any particular way, and I like to think I myself engage with a varied community. Best to network with all the little networks, right?
