Have some coffee and maybe a beer since Friday night is closing in.

Did you know large stakeholders give their votes to people who use them to make 100% votes for themselves using bots and call it wages? These activities are often on the "Front Page".

Yes, I think it is plain silly to get worked up over about 40ish people giving 1% votes.

By the way, I will happily accept any 1% votes. I received one from smooth the other day. I thought.. Nice, thank you. Although the viking is someone I consider a SteemIt friend, I haven't opted to use the bot. In the long haul, if everyone was doing this forever, it would be a bad thing. That is not however the case, and I tend to think this attention is based on personal feelings vs. concern for the good of SteemIt. Carry on, though. You have engaged people which is more than some of the commonly trending posts do. :) Enjoy your time on SteemIt.
