This is pretty much how I feel about buying votes. You can do it and it is accepted, but is it good for the platform? I don't think so. I think it is a slippery slope to the bottom. Anyone can post garbage and buy a nice vote for it. Is that what we want? A lot of garbage being upvoted by even more bots?

I was thinking about making a post, asking if I'm being foolish by denying myself those lucrative upvotes. As a Redfish, I'm having a heck of a time getting any serious action on my posts. However, I believe integrity is more important than making lots of money. Slow and steady; I'll get there eventually. At least I can be proud of my efforts in the end.
