I'd prefer you trail another project so it doesn't seem like that's why I'm doing this. I suggest @curangel.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt if all you wanted was to curate and thus leased HP from dlease but found out it was too expensive (since people leasing there earn a much higher APR) and that's why you started trading votes to maintain the leased HP, unfortunately that's not a fair way to do things. There are some other project hope people leasing out HP and the only reason delegators receive such high rewards by leasing there (not to mention the 10% cut dlease takes in the middle), is because most of them abuse post rewards for their own gain thus still coming up on profit at the end for both parties. This ultimately just means that the rest of stakeholders lose out because most of what they curate is themselves on content no one consumes or is just placeholder for their activity and others have to then tend to take shortcuts and gray areas such as votetrading to compete.
