Introducing our new Rating System: SmartStars
Hello everybody,
after quite some time, we finally reworked the SmartScore & Review-System.
Our goal was to make it easier for the Moderators to be able to review more Users in a short period of time (because as you might have seen, there are currently over 300 Users Pending) and to make it easier for the User to understand the metrics.
Introducing: SmartStars
While we previously worked with a points-system with 5 different categories (quality, value, uniqueness, motivation, engagement) where the maximum amount was at 25 - and below 10, the User would be reject and not whitelisted - we found that system to be too complex to review a high amount of users without wasting a lot of time.
That's why we decided to replace it with something we call SmartStars.
How does it work?
Well, it is actually fairly simple.
When a Moderator reviews a new User, this is what he / she sees.
The statistics at the top are not all relevant right now
Instead of having a lot of different checkboxes or other things that the moderator has to use for the specific user, there is now only 1 thing (besides the optional feedback box) that has to be changed.
The SmartStar Rating Box

And to give you an example, of what kind of Users we expect from a perfect 3 Star Rating
3 Stars - Excellent
@flauwy
Flauwy is an amazing Steemian, who is extremelly active and passionate on Steem.
He makes Videos and Blog-Posts, which are created with detail and hindsight on current trends.
We believe that @flauwy is one of the currently most influential Bloggers / Vloggers on STEEM without much of a STEEMPOWER capital.
Now, one thing that is always difficult, is to rate the User. And often times, people are not happy with the result.
But we believe that the new system will help to make it easier for the Moderators & the Users to understand it.
And this also means, that we are now finally able to bring new Moderators into the Team:
Do you want to be a Moderator?
As a Moderator you help to review the current pending Users. As a reward you will receive a lot of gratitude from @therealwolf and @smartsteem, but also a little compensation for your efforts.
