I'll be completely honest the first day I was here I was upvoting all of my own comments. I started doing this based off the beggars I saw welcoming me who upvoted their own comments. Then I realized all these people did was beg and upvote themselves which is not something I wanted to have myself associated with and have since removed all of the upvotes.

Since then I have also found great articles like this who help me improve my Steemit etiquette and I wanted to say thanks! This is a brilliant idea and this is such an easy way to get rid of these people or at least make them less relevant. Resteemed!
