Upvote posts not comments, if people are commenting they need feedback

in discussion •  7 years ago 


I think it's better to upvote posts of people that are commenting you. I always try to upvote posts of people that are commenting me because they give me the feedback that I want. I think when you upvote comments you don't help the commenter a lot, but if you upvote his post he wil feel that better and he will be sure that his activity made you upvote him and comment his posts.


Of course if you upvote both comments and posts of people that comments you, it will be much better for them. But to keep your voting power high and upvote as much people as you can it's enoug to upvote their post with your almost full voting power.


I always try to keep my voting power high to give good upvotes to people. Generally when I hit 50 % I wait till it will go back to 100 % and start upvoting again.


What do you think about that ?

Is it better to upvote comments or posts ?

It takes a bit more effort, but it probably makes a bigger difference.

it's not hard for me, I try to review everyones pages, this help me understand what kind of person this is and if I like his posts I even can upvote a few posts.

About upvoting post and comments:
I mostly upvote posts, sometimes comments. I think they are both equal, because both the author and the curator are receive money in both of the cases. So both of them are good. I am happy and grateful in any case.

About the voting power:
I usually keep my voting power above 80%.
There was a time, months ago, when I go around/below 20% or something like that. Maybe lower than that.
But nowadays I try to keep my voting power above 80%.
I think it's highly depending on your voting value.
If your voting value is $0.03 or $0.02, like in my case, it's good to keep your voting power above 80%.
At 50%, it's only worth $0.015 or $0.01.
Not to mention the fact that your voting power is currently recharging only 20% per day, so if your voting power goes down to 50%, then you have to wait for days to reach 80% again.

yes I understand about voting power, but I forget sometimes about it and I upvote a lot o people and then remember ☺ lol
