RE: How about unflagging my posts?
Steemit as a whole provides a very unusual relation between views and rewards, it's earning that are pretty much impossible on any other platform with the same amount of views. So in a way his criticism is fair, but I don't think one can reasonable expect to find all posts that have an unreasonable relation between views and rewards because it's pretty much all of them. Additionally, it seems likely that there is a very strong bias towards this exact type of content heavily influencing his reaction, not just the mathematical relationship between the rewards and the views. But big rewards and low views are surely unsustainable.
Of course it's unsustainable. Maybe something to counter that? Something that prevents an upvote unless you're actually on the blog page itself?
That would also put a stop to bot voting too perhaps.
No, this would not stop bot voting, it wouldn't even make it more difficult and there is no practical way to implement it.
Perhaps taking away the vote button on the list pages would implement it? Then in order to vote, the account would have to visit the post.
This has no bearing on bots. Remember, this is just one interface, not the blockchain. Bots are interacting with the STEEM blockchain, not with the steemit interface.
Fair enough, I was looking at killing two birds with one stone.
I get loads of ideas. Some are really odd and way off into left-field and I make those ideas into stories. The other, more normal ideas sometimes help solve problems. Sometimes not.
That's how ideas work for most of use too :P
Yep and it's good that brains don't all work in the same way - method, outlook... For example, my husband is the Senior Design Engineer for Electronics and Electrics and he works with all kinds of confusing stuff... yet he couldn't write anything fictional because his brain works more logically.
