RE: Details on Proposed Comment Reward Curve
speaking about that...
there was an idea, that... pool for comments in the posts could be proportional to value of a post. That of course would cause that only top-trending post would be commented... so what if we would create a pool for a comments which would be inversely proportional to value of a post?
I am thinking about designing a system of incentives, which would encourage people to leave a valuable feedback and comments under undervalued posts.
That would cause, that people would start to focus on commenting new users :)
Or...and hear me out on this one...it may not be easy to follow...
We could make things simpler and treat all posts the same? :)
if you would like to make things simpler, then you could make a proposition to set equal vote for everyone - that is simple! But wait! That would not be steem any more.
Things can be and should be simple when they proved that they are working.
Whole my concept described above would be actually easy to explain: Help those, who are weaker. They have the greatest potential to grow!
Actually the whole purpose of curation rewards were to encourage exactly this behavior. The problem is... that vote is not the best way to give a feedback. There is a reason why when people are flagged, they are always looking for explanation from a flagger.
That makes no sense.
because...?
I don't see how people spamming "Good post :)" on every bad post on the platform will create any long lasting value.
only the pool for comments under low-value post will be greater. Someone still would need to vote for that.
If someone would leave a great comment under average post and only X would vote for that, this comment should receive more reward comparing to situation when exactly the same comment would be posted under post which already has great value and also would be voted be the same X.
That would actually cause that "great post" comments (which were posted only to be rewarded) would almost never appear under great-value post.. because those comment would need to receive tons of votes to get meaningful payout from smaller pot.
