Upvoting your own comment WITHOUT upvoting the root post is an asinine behavior!
You just read a great article and you think...
Hey, awesome! This is amazing information that people will like, I found great value in it, and I think people will read it. So, you comment on the post with something that adds value to it, or refers to a similar post by yourself then click the upvote button on your comment. This is ok if you ALSO give the root post your 100% upvote.
If you JUST upvote your own comment you're an ass!
Seriously it's being an ass! Just like the one pictured above ... Not even like the one pictured above ... You're a tired old ass, not a fine ass like the one in the picture.
When you upvote your own comment without supporting the person who worked hard to create the original content it's like STEALING! You're taking money out of the pool and either not giving back or barely giving back!
Am I overreacting?
What do you think?
