Over the past week I have had an opportunity to sit in on several conversations about Steemit concerns. One of those was on the topic of self-upvoting. I speak a little about my noobie thoughts on this here.
I did not mention it in the video, but I did read an interesting posting by @lexiconical. He dug deep into some of the things that are regarded as 'correct' and 'incorrect' here on Steemit. Hmmmm Interesting. Check it out here -

We musicians have been trying to tackle the collaboration challenge found here in Steemit. Musicians want to collaborate, but it can be difficult. What do we need to do to create a means to let us spread our collaborative wings?
Thanks for listening. You can reach me in the chats as well as on the PAL Discord - join here - https://discord.gg/e8npS64

Agreed. And if it is not an issues that requires top-down intervention, then we should invite individuals to make their own call based on their own unique set of criteria. No skin off my nose if the other fella wants to upvote himself. Fill your boots.

You'd think that people would let other people alone......
they must have no life..because they are continually trying to live other peoples lives for them.

Here is an article I wrote on self-voting a couple months ago. I think it was probably before you joined - The harm from abusive self-voting is self-limited: A stakeholder perspective.
I largely agree with @lexiconical's perspective on the question, although that article takes a more confrontational tone than mine did. I generally try to remember the old adage that you get more flies with honey than vinegar.

I make about 5-6 posts per week and upvote them the other 100 or so upvotes go to others, personally I think this is fair, I can see where people get flak for upvoting all of their comments, though I think a certain percentages is getting greedy, I don't know what that percent is though :)

I think this is very fair. You are very giving with your resources. I think that the bottom line is people need to do what they personally feel is right.

I always upvote my own posts. There was a time when that might be the only vote that I would get. I don't have enough upvote power to get anywhere near what could be looked at as taking advantage of the system. If I had a big following that actually upvoted my posts when they enjoyed them, and I was consistantly getting big post rewards, I would probably stop self voting. I don't see that happening in the near future. I still have less than 1000 SP, including the delegated SP from when I joined back in May of this year.
I do spend a fair amount of time in the evening looking at posts and upvoting what I like, gotta spread the love, even if it's not much...
