A few days ago you published an article entitled: I am the main victim. In that article you talked about why the negative vote was necessary. I remember that when I came to Hive you also spoke out on the subject. I bring up that post, because this one relates to it.

Both posts have caused me intrigue. In my case genre manual heals, others to trails I follow and authors in fanbase. I have wondered if this distribution is correct, but I did it this way, because I trust projects and I like the content of the authors that are there. I even have them in my favorites list, which reports Ecency.

I try to vote manual and interact with the content I like. The truth is that I am always faced with the fact that I like a lot of things.

I've always wondered why people have a hard time commenting, but it's a relative thing. I wouldn't stop following someone because they stop following me. :P There are users who follow to be informed of what's going on in the ecosystem, others because they complement with their tastes and others for quality content. 

I enjoy my writing and reading time with a cup of coffee and listening to music. To some it may seem like I'm an old man in a young body, hahaha.

Abusers usually look for the larger votes, so most smaller stakeholders with smaller votes, trails and fanbase's are usually quite "safe". At those smaller levels the abuse is more apparent, i.e. literal farms posting copypasted stuff and those get usually found quickly by hivewatchers or other stakeholders spending time reporting them. 

I guess this post is about more "clever" tactics to earn more author rewards and make sure you're profiting off of your activities at the cost of others. This user for instance jumpstarted his journey on hive quick by leasing HP, and that's fine in and of itself, but doing well on Hive means you have to put in effort and get votes and attention because you've put in the work - if you're going to pay for it (by leasing HP in this case) it shouldn't also be profitable because you're now avoiding all the grind and activity and effort many others have put into to get to a place where they earn their votes. Instead they are now a top x author on the monthly chart and getting a lot of votes from different users because they're trending mainly by having used the leased stake to encourage other similar sized stakeholders to trade votes based on their greed.

That's just my opinion on it, some people may say that's fine and fair use of the blockchain and system.

From what I understand, it is about using fanbase correctly and distributing votes fairly, despite being a small account. In the case of growers, I understand what you are saying and I have seen it. The good thing is that they are quickly detected by hivewatchers.

I see renting as a quick option that doesn't allow you to build something solid in the long term. In Hive the hardest thing to get is followers, gaining the trust of another person, it's not just about the content but the work you do and how you manage your process here.

I have always respected the freedom of action of each person, but the quick options are not the ones I like the most. Mainly because they are not long-lasting.  Regarding the last part, my position is similar.

Mainly, I like to find diverse content in trends. Not monofunctionality. The interesting thing about this is to see what another person can give from their intrinsic talents and abilities. Rewards for healing should be directed that way. It is a particular position, it may be supported by some and opposed for others, as you argue at the end.
