There's absolutely no reason for a user to "hoard" their votes. The more votes you give, the more you end up having to give. It's really simple. Burn through those upvotes. Encourage others' posts (by upvoting) and you'll be able to upvote more.

The irony is that the exact opposite of what you're describing is what people are doing. They throw their votes around in order to unlock more votes.
