I have thought quite a ways beyond that. You, reasonably, do not think that stake based power is reasonable. Well, neither do I, alone. This is why we are putting reputation on an equal footing with stake. The individual vote is not going to help balance things in a situation with potential sockpuppet voting and bot voting. The point of stake regulating vote power is to put a risk for the bad actor. This is nullified by the fact that there is a small group of bad actors on this platform who have stake that cost them nearly nothing, and zero risk because they can just suppress their enemies with downvotes.

If you want to learn more about calibrae, come join the forum: http://calibrae.freeforums.net/ and you can also voice your opinions about what you learn. It is a work in progress and we haven't moved far beyond specifying the parameters of the system due to the aggressive suppression of my attempts to inform people about it. You will find that the plans are very reasonable and balanced, and you can ask questions to further clarify. The more voices speak, the more questions we hear, the more we can adjust our system to what it should be.

We do not want to repeat ANY mistakes here, no matter how well intentioned they were.
