Hi Everybody!

This is just an informative post so you won't hate me that much because of my late lack of activity!

Since I came back to Steemit a little bit less than two weeks ago I've been using A LOT of my SP to vote. I was so happy that I could give something to everybody !! But then I checked the Voting Power and it was WAY lower than I though.

Source: teemitdb.com (like a week or more ago).

Mostly because of the HF19, which I'm not complaining, oh no! Because it gives the possibility to choose! But remember: with a great voting power, comes a great responsibility.

So as you may already understood, I stopped giving many super duper upvotes, but My plan is to change that today, since my voting power is already rising again to 90%. And it may sound like "ohh what a selfish gross guy! He wants to have so much voting power before using it !"

And actually this is true, let me write down you some numbers:

• When I was voting (just right after the HF19) at my 100% I was making something more than 2 dollars per upvote. After that number dropped I was barely doing 30-40 cents per upvote with the same amount of Voting power (And the same lose).

• If I wait until my voting powers rises beyond 90%, now that I have barely more than 80%, it would rise at least 20 cents (or it's corresponding percent of the vote). All with the same impact onto my Voting Power Value.

• If I wouldn't realize this until my power would go even lower, probably I would need weeks to take it back, because the higher the voting power, the faster it recovers.

Long story short, it would be better for all of us to not exhaust our reservoirs of Steem Power by clicking upvote in everything despite of it's content and just upvote what we feel that deserves it. I learned this lesson by loosing a lot of it and taking it back this week by being a little bit patient and stop voting everything around for these super tasty curation rewards.

See... We need YOU to clean steemit and to make it more fair.

Don't get upset if later you don't receive any upvote if you vote crappy content, without any sense and help to these people that upvote ten posts a day without any content more than one or maybe two lines. And of course a self upvote and YOUR vote for curations.

Don't believe me? Check this out:

Source: Steemit.

One line, $154 in rewards, 239 votes and a WHOLE horde of bots people celebrating his personal success. That of course, doesn't help to any of them.

This personal and shallow success of his wouldn't be possible with so many people celebrating him. If you are like these people, just clicking the upvote arrow because: don't. Don't do that. Upvote it because you feel it's worth of your vote, your time and your interest. Don't prostitute your vote. Don't upvote x upvote without even reading the article because you both won't really receive anything in return. Make from Steemit a better place and not a crappy pig house where everybody take their eyes out for few cents and grams of recognition.

I Invite you to make use of the main rule that guided my whole life:

Be so good that they can't ignore you

Bye!
