Upvoting Dispute (A reminder to everyone) Hello guys, how are you doing? Hope you're all doing fine. I just wanna share you some issue regarding upvoting system. I think everyone should know this because you might do this in the future, and you'll be surprise for receiving a penalty message which you never did. So, yesterday, it was a good day for me actually, but something came up which ruined my night. I got this important message from RC, I though it was really important, but I guess it's more annoying one. The dispute is about "You upvote, I upvote you."

I was in dazed yesterday that I didn't read it well. I thought it was about upvoting myself which is absurd πŸ˜… (embarrassed here for misunderstanding the message). And @Jdine somewhat gave me explanation about the issue. Then when I checked it again just this night, it's actually about "you upvote me, I upvote you" system. I think many, perhaps majority, doesn't know about this, not unless they encounter the same issue. So here's the scenario: When user A upvoted user B, then user B upvoted user A ***at the same day***, both of you will receive penalty like that ☝️☝️. That means, ***users can't upvote themselves at the same time*** because RC system would consider it as cheating, eventhough you guys didn't do it for points purposes. So, when user A upvoted user B, user B shouldn't upvote back, you can do it on the next day if you want. Because if you'll do it, you will automatically receive a penalty message (congratulations πŸ‘πŸ‘). It's a lesson to learn for everyone who got penalty about this matter. I hope it's a clear explanation to those who got the same penalty. P.S. Btw guys, have you ever tried to comment on your own article? Just like tagging someone on your own article's comment section? Because I experienced tagging someone on my own article's comment section, then a few seconds later, I got notification that me myself commented on my own article. Is it normal, or should I worry as well about that matter? Here's an example:

Kindly comment your response to my question. Thank you!!
