Yes, I always Self vote my posts on Steemit, it doesn't do much for me anyway because my vote is worth only about $0.003 at the current Steem price, so actually all I am trying to do is to add a little to my posts rewards to try and avoid them becoming dust.
But now tribes have appeared and my Self vote on Steemit also gives me rewards on the communities where I have staked some tokens. I don't have much staked in any of these tribes so I don't think it would have mattered much if I continued with my self votes but now I have found that my vote on Sportstalk is now worth over 500 SPORTS, which in price is not really much but with the report from Actifit and say I make 4 articles a week with the sportstalk tag we are talking about 11 posts or better said close to 6,000 SPORTS every week just from Self votes.
Now I think I have to be fair, you know my goal is to get to Orca on Sportstalk and just with Self votes I can get there in about 35 weeks, which I think is not good for the community so I will refrain from upvoting my posts from now on, I will get to Orca with the votes the community gives me and whatever time it takes well, that will be what will be.
As this also affects the other tribes I have stakes with I will also tag them on this article, after all without my Self votes now I have to get votes however I can.
