RE: What NEEDS to change NOW in order for Steemit to Survive. (Partial Payout Declined Self-Voting)
- This is very true luke! I agree that complicating a already complicated system is not really a good move. But I do feel change might be in order, its hard to say what, when there are so many opinions and hard evidence.
- I have read these articles and I do see the big picture on this as knozaki2015 continues to mention ;) but I do see this being gamed and especially with the sock puppet accounts , not only does that though my idea out the window, but it's almost impossible to defend against.
- Agree with you on this of course, I do think having the option to decline your self vote , keep your visibility but also show others that you believe in your content and have no need to self vote (The partial up vote decline is growing on me a bit) gives a chance for more pure content quality control (which I do feel can't be truly done by oneself) Being a good community member is to give more then you take.
- Good point to bring up and again is disheartening a bit, with people not contributing but cruelly trying to game the system.
- As a programmer myself with the knowledge of many many different languages fro malt of hard work and experience I simply didn't want to pretend to be an expert on everything and I know that some very intelligent people put good work in and other aspects as you say that are forint to me come into play.
Thank you very much for you comments Luke!
That's is a very good point. That you could just find away around self vote removal by creating one account to upvote the other.
About "Being a good community member is to give more then you take".
It seems that proportion of givers seem to deacrease according to the rise of their SP.
It seems that minnows are more likely to be generous than dolphins and whales, despite that they can offer so little with their miniscule voting power.
It seems that the more Steem Power some user acquires, the more greedy he/she becomes (with some few exceptions), and less likely to share with minnows but more likely to upvote sockpuppets or circle jerk.
How about if all voting bots not allowed, then self-voting award limited to some degree. The biggest problem is "Account1 voting Account2 Same Owner" scenario, this may be solved by checking the source IP address, same IPs can not vote each other.
Haha I am no whale here, but may this idea solve the issue a bit. Regards all.
And VPN servers not allowed, if this can be done. I am just throwing ideas so that others might improve.
Yeah VPNS are the problem. I don't think there is a way to block it :-)
Hey man, just a dummy question as I am new to this platform: If I reply to you, is this automatically seen by the people above you in this chain? Or do I have to Reply at the topmost to be seen? Thanks.
Yes I think so. They probably won't see if you reply to the topmost comment.
Thanks man. If you can drop by ny posts I am now on my fifth as a newbie here. Regards.
NP, If you drop by my posts and upvote, you will get an upvote too.
I'm acting as admin temporarily for our band site @primatives-usa - this would mean I would get flagged for upvoting something on my personal page and vice-versa, even though the other band members are in full support of specific upvotes- same for when Jesse and Lila-suka return. I'm willing, for the greater good, to NOT do this, but I'm sure other people are in the same situation.
