>So, now, no one has to upvote the group account if he just wants to join and sit quietly with his thumb where your recently highlighted appliance can wash it for him. But if he wants votes from us, he needs to ante up.

I think that's fair enough. If they don't want to vote, they don't receive the vote. There's other places they can go if they don't like the rules.

>While you're here ---> Thank you so much for all that you do. You're one of the exceptions that makes life better. You always go the extra mile and more. You're a real inspiration.

I should be back to writing soon, as I'm back from the highlands now. STEEM is approaching $2 again, so does that mean we get better quality again? We will have to see.
