RE: My Comment Is Worthy Of My Vote But Your Article Is Not!!!!!

in #cartoon7 years ago (edited)

I hate being the devil's advocate on this on because I feel where you are coming from but here is a situation where this could be "forgivable"
I, for example, use steemvoter in order to save time and give the people I'm following a steady supply of upvotes even if I'm not online( I still do manual curation before anybody freaks out).
In this context if I spend a lot of time writing that comment and I see there being a ton of comments already written, I wouldn't want mine to disappear without it being read.
If I gave myself a small upvote ( just to get a bit ahead and not remain at the bottom) before the automatic upvote comes on that particular article then I might appear like a scumbag. But I now that my upvote will come and I don't give it a second thought.
I hope that particular situations makes sense.
I wish you a very productive and awesome New Year! Chear man!

Thanks for the comment @calatorulmiop.

Upvoting oneself for visibility is generally as accepted as a valid reason for self voting. You are correct, there are times you want to jump to the head of the comment section because you are knowledgeable or passionate about a particular subject the author wrote on.

I think that is a big difference from one who continually upvotes oneself to the exclusion of the authors...which you state you support via an automated upvoter.

There is a big difference but I just wanted to point out a particular situation where I could upvote myself before the post.
