Nobody said you were an idiot. However, it is a fact that the majority of your votes are self-votes:

And as I said, that is completely legitimate ... but it is also legitimate that I upvote comments of users who also upvote my articles (I see no reason not to upvote an article on Steemit in case one liked it). :)
Apart from that I am happy to read that you liked the article.
I do not see the whole statistics here, I see only a few days and these are just the days where they advised me to raise my voting power @jaki01 -
Copy me a statistic from my 2 months, I can not do it. Let them show in percentage how much I gave votes to others and how much to myself. If you are right from that moment, I will not vote for myself anymore with my 2 cents of strength.

But from my side I will stop that here now. My only intentention was to make you think a little bit. Maybe one last point: I think there is no reason always to wait until voting power has reached a maximum. This article of @timcliff is worth to be read:

Instead of switching in defending mode you better should read the post of @timcliff to learn something. If 100 % or not doesn't matter. The point is that you seem to wait with upvoting until your voting power reaches a certain level. Actually that's not necessary. And who adviced you to "raise" voting power?
Please, stop here now. I don't want to extend this discussion on my blog. If there is some further need for discussion, please send me a private message. Thanks!
