I get loads of notifications informing me that well meaning users have up voted my posts.
While I do appreciate the efforts put in I just want to say that a mere up vote benefits no one not even the one who spends time to up vote.
I am not sure whether Virily benefits when a user merely up votes a post without opening it.
For earning virils one should view the post and if in a mood go further and respond. Just viewing also generates virils. One needs to open the post and not just click on that up vote icon one sees on the bottom left corner without opening the post. I have circled it red in my image.
Most users here know this rule but this is for those who do not and particularly new users. One newbie up voted well over hundred of my posts (lol).

Did you know a mere up vote generates no virils?

Yes

No

The upvote othat I have circled in my image if that is clicked then you just upvote witthout viewing or opening the post.
That user is not there now but I had got over 100 upvoted notifications but no views notifications. You can give it a try You can go to the ‘latest’ tab and click on that upvote button on any post and see if you get paid.
No notifications on views because they were not viewed. They were only upvoted. . Please test one post as I have suggested. One can upvote without viewing
I don’t know we can upvote a post without opening it. Even if so, I think we have to be thankful that our post was noticed. If our post is truly interesting, it can be opened by anybody even outside the site.
If you read comments here you will see that up voting a post is possible without viewing it I got about 100 up votes and none of those posts were opened. It is only when we open a post can one get views and earnings.
If you go to ‘Latest’ in the drop down Menu Tab there you will find posts with up vote and down vote arrows on the bottom left side Just click on it and that is when an up vote is created without opening the post.
Given that someone liked a post of your without opening it, would it make you less productive? Would it make a deduction on your earnings? Besides, that person might not even be asking you to visit his or her posts. Why would you fret over little things like that? As if someone had caused you much trouble because he/she liked a post without opening it.
I don’t mean to offend you but as a writer, we must be responsible for what we post on the web. You shouldn’t be posting rants and complaints anywhere on the web. It only shows that you are too concerned about the views and the like or whatever you may call it.
I am more than satisfied with the meaningful comments I have received here and none of them have offended me. That is how an interaction should be.
And as far as your comment is concerned that is your view w but I will stick to mine.
I was amused however when you say that you do not mean to offend me
Have a nice day.
Of course, upvote without opening means nothing. Only opening the post we view adverts of Virily that generate money to all of us.
I hope those who do it will read my post (lol)
I upvote at times without commenting. Even to upvote, I need to open the post without which I cannot upvote.
One can up vote without opening the post. In the image I have shown where the up vote tab is there.
I agree with you, some up vote me but give no comment…. However, I appreciate the well wishing
OK if they have nothing to comment but they must view the post as that will get the earnings.
I am not sure if they do view the post …
They should really as just an up vote benefits none
Hmm well its the same here. I never knew someone could vote up your post without viewing until I saw my notification.
Some view and up vote but some just up vote which benefits no one not even the site.
Yup agreed. But some don’t want you to get the benefit.
Never heard of such a thing. Very mean really
Yes I knew you had to open the post to benefit anyone.
Yet there are those up vote and down vote buttons at the very start
There is someone who always upvotes my posts without opening them! I know who she is and I don’t care! She always did the same on all the sites I was on!?
It is not the question of not being bothered but it is a futile exercise even for the one who does it. That is what I was trying to point out It only clutters our notifications pages.
I know that! Maybe she thinks an upvote will bring more visitors to her posts! It’s just a guess!
Not everyone wants to open the publication itself
Just up voting does not benefit anyone not even the site It only clutters our notification pages.
