I want to up-vote a couple of responses because I really believe they are worth it, but in much cases I don't, because I want more voting power for the Original posts and not "spent" it to responses... Would it make sense to have 2 separate voting powers? One for the initial posts and one only for the comments/responses? I think it would give greater motivation to participate on conversations, and that will ultimately give life to steemit (except the dollars of course)
