RE: Open letter to change voting patterns | A plea to give #NewSteem a chance

Vote trading is the same as self-voting, buying profitable votes is still the same thing that goes against the EIP. We have 1 user focusing on downvotes lately so it's not like we're giving it our all attention hence some times some votes get downvoted a bit too much or not enough.

Anyway, I agree we should put more effort into spreading the word about Steem and even better onboarding users and guiding them through the learning curve. Feel free to join our onboarding program to help out with that.

I self upvote once a day as I always have and have made many posts about it. I hold more stake than you do and have never had a large delegation. I earned and bought my stake and have manually curated nearly every day for 3.5 years. I've made casual yet popular posts most of those days too. Yeah, totally seems like I should be a target, I've been such a bad abuser of Steem. Huge eye roll and some cuss words here.

As if there was a concern someone couldn't have just messaged me.

I didn't throw any rocks at you guys... smh

Why are you writing this? lol, how do you know how much stake I have?

I just said that's what it seems like as you always come with the controversial comments that naturally cause a lot of heat.

Yeah, totally seems like I should be a target

Do you think you'll be a target of ocdb's downvotes?

I don't personally see you as a vote-trader. Mainly those where outgoing and incoming votes are a majority from the same users in stake, while I personally also may vote on some people I value here on Steem and they value what I do when it goes over a certain threshold and there's no connection between the users beside the size of their wallets it is hard to not label it vote-trading which is the same as 10x self-voting daily or delegating to a bid bot for the same if not higher returns.

I bet that would apply to your posts as well as many others.

No, I do not think you are vote trading. I think you have a network of people who support you. They support you for a variety of reasons, including many of the good things you have done for Steem.

Just like many others have a network of people who they have worked with, agreed with, shared the same type of content with or have other connections.

Exactly, that's why I said there are a number of people I curate cause I value their work and they do the same towards me. The difference comes when those users doing the voting back and forth are of the same size in "influence" or share the same votes in rshares no matter the post or content on a daily basis. For sure it's not going to be easy to judge it case by case and downvote an appropriate amount but if they have been able to take all the upvotes in all these years they should be able to accept a few downvotes without crying about it as well, you know, like you and me have since #newsteem.
