I feel you on a lot of this. There are times when I see a comment say something like "good job" and that comment has a couple of upvotes that translate to $5 or $6 and I am like that comment is worth more than my earnings for the entire day or even the entire week. @originalworks

Yeah that does suck and I feel your pain. I also don't like the concept of self voting or upvoting your own stuff for profit.. There are times I can see it being useful if you are adding a valuable opinion to a post with 100 comments that are garbage and you want to start a discussion, but for the most part I think self voting is somewhat tasteless.. For what its worth.. here are my 3 cents..

I agree with you on the self-voting. The problem is that it is a community norm here to self-vote your own content. I first noticed people voting up their own content, so then I searched it and I found that it is generally accepted to vote up your own content. I don't think it should be allowed at all. To me, that is like going to your own store and buying your own products in order to inflate your sales numbers and trick your shareholders into thinking that you have a ton of sales. There is also a controversy about voting up your own comments. I have seen mixed answers to that questions, so I have not voted up my own comments. I do vote up my own content only because the general consensus is to do it. I don't mean to say that it is right just because everybody else is doing it. It is something that I am torn on, but I also see that people are voting themselves up, creating bots to vote themselves up, buying votes from bots, and creating jointly owned bots to vote themselves up.

I find it to be even more unsettling when people of sufficient wealth do it, knowing damn well that they don't need it as much as the others commenting on their posts. I used to get so frustrated, actually I still get a little pissed when I write out a detailed comment to an article (such as you have done here), get a response from a whale/high rep member and the the dick upvotes their response bu leaves me with zero. It would be like if I upvoted "this comment" and ignored yours that prompted me to write mine. I find that to be quite the dick move in most cases. Let the guy behind you upvote your musings if they are of sufficient quality that they warrant it. I also hate the buy a vote bullshit. If I can write a trash article and simply buy votes for it, how does that qualify as the community picking only the best content. How does that inspire me to get my shit together, improve my skills and pick topics of interest?. How does it motivate me to engage my audience, interact with them, know them and help them so they help me? If I could just buy votes up to appear popular I would not have the need to know people. It become non personal and just a sham site full of shit masquerading as a place where the community decides the best content. Remove the self vote and the bots and I think we would see many the milk the system move onto other things and many that are unnoticed would get noticed... here have .03 :)
