RE: Steemit Etiquette: Is it RUDE to Leave a Comment but NOT Upvote?
I have trust issues because of the comments. Some people will say that you're "going to follow me now" but it's a lie. 😐

Yeah... it ends up being multiple lies, really. The first lie being that they are going to "follow" you; the subsequent lie being that simply because they "followed" you, they are actually going to *look at your stuff" sometimes.
I believe the reason of following a post or a person or an author must not come from "You must follow me back" attitude. If you love what you're read, then you should follow it if you want to hear/see more of that. It shouldn't be always about money.
Agreed. Those usually end up being "empty follows" anyway, @tiffanyrej. I have seen fairly new accounts here that follow 5000 people, even more. Do you have any idea how much time it takes to follow that many people?
But I am not into the whole "follow-back" thing. Either someone is interesting-- and I will follow them-- or they are not.
