So what is Steem and how does it work? Could you essentially max out your steem power so high that your own upvote was worth like thousands of dollars??? or MORE!??? And you could like post tons of stupid shit every couple of minutes and keep giving yourself thousands of dollars up voting yourself as you needed??? Like I'm confused. Is something like that possible??? I've been upvoting myself so if that makes me a dipshit, fuck it I don't care. I mean you should be able too right? You always have to vote for yourself.
Stay free govern yourself.
Do no harm but stand your ground.
I believe that there is a balance. In time I will be putting a lot of money into steem power. And for that I will want a return on investment. And like you said do no harm but stand your ground.
Those that invest a lot into this platform deserve a return. But an age old rule of business is. Leave a little for the next man.

Until you get to 500sp it doesnt matter what you do, its ok.
Generally selfvoting comments is a bad idea, but again, until you get to 500sp most folks wont care.
And yes, if you got the money you can vote yourself millions.

So does this mean steem power caps off at 500sp? No higher?

No, at 500 sp you get the vote slider so you can make less than 100% votes.
You can have as much sp as you can afford.

So lets say your up vote is worth $1000. You can actually use the slide to only up vote a person $1 when you could give them a whole $1000 up vote?

The slider is based on 1 to 100%, to vote with less you have to use the cli wallet, whatever that is.
Vessel might let you vote with less, but ive never looked at it.
Simple answer, yes.
Im currently voting at 22% to keep up my vote power.

So you lose vote power with every upvote? If so that sucks. But I guess it keeps you busy collecting steem posting stuff all the time. Kind of like a rotation.

There had to be a limit on upvoting or the math wouldnt work.
Currently you get 10 full power votes per 24 hour period.

As a relatively new member, I have had similar questions. Mine centered around social mores and conventions. I grew up in a time and place in which it was considered ill-mannered to brag on yourself. As a result, upvoting my own posts or comments made me uncomfortable, but I was given assurance from other people that it is OK. It still bothers me a little bit, though.
