One of @cryptographic's posts gave me an idea.  In this comment, he basically said that he likes to reward quality comments with a 100% upvote.  Naturally, this limits the number of comments he can make throughout the course of the day to still retain his voting power.  Hence, we have an individual who does not pass out a ton of votes yet those he does, carry significant value.

Contrast that with my approach.  Throughout the day, I give out a large number of votes.  Of course, I do this at far less than 100% since I, too, am limited to 20% power in 24 hours.  My votes, individually speaking, carry a lot less impact yet more people get them.  I stated in a comment that one difference is that I might give someone 8 or 9 votes in one day.

So which is better?  What do you prefer?

In looking at the whales, it seems they operate in a similar fashion.  Some have very little voting power while others are very particular about who they vote for.  On occasion, I received a few votes from whales that were worth $20.  Those are very nice to get.  Obviously, this person was very selective where he or she gave out the votes.  At the same time, there are many with high SP who upvote my content.  Yet their voting power is at 10% or 20%.  What is interesting is there is a split among those people.  Some are giving votes at 100% while others at a much reduced rate. 

So how do you approach it?  The site needs voting since that is tied to the compensation.  Upvotes were a central premise in the creation of this blockchain.  Nevertheless, the only guideline was to upvote quality content.

It will be interesting to see what people comment about and their views on this.  Personally, I have not seen this topic covered in such a way.

If you feel this article is of benefit, please give it an upvote and re-steem.  It would be nice to get a huge number of comments going to give people all views on this.
