RE: No More Fear on Self-voting!

in #steem8 years ago

I don't see any harm in self-voting as it's a choice for authors when posting. They might as well acknowledge own posts..compared to 100 votes with 1% voting power. If i can vote 60-100% to other members' post, surely it's my choice to vote for my posts 100% with the time i spend making one.

Sort:  

The real self-voting problem is that I could write a bot that posts 40 empty posts per day, votes for all of them, and skims a bit of reward all day long while providing no benefit to the system.

Nobody is saying you shouldn't be voting on your own stuff; we just want to make sure you aren't incentivized to upvote your own spam. :)

There's no real "reward" from that was clayop's point. You are just maintaining your share of stake, not increasing. Maybe it would be better to offer an opt out "investor class" shares which don't pay rewards, can't vote, and don't earn anything. That way people who want to just invest (and support the value of the token which helps everyone) can opt out without needing to spam 40 votes on the chain. I think it is worth considering.

sounds like a good idea :) I was thinking along those lines too banking should be viable and supporting the growth outside of the platform should be incentivized. Staying just so you can spread your daily pool to combat the "inflation" being spread to everyone doesn't seem that appealing, however you've earned that "Power" being stuck with it seems like it's a bit of a let down. No wonder the price is dropping when it's a sin to use the tokens provided and do something with them apart from trading them.

I'm expecting steemit to pick back up when the currency becomes viable not only for curation but for normal spread of value and transfers. Currently the only people supporting comments are a few dolphins and a few whales. Many have expressed their opinions that the currency should be used for shopping and such, currently it's underdeveloped for use in anyplace outside of this closed of ecosystem.

The best thing is either a upvote from abit or a transfer from some of the others earners around here. Games seem to not work that well for long and nobody cares for playing when they can make money gaming systems and people. So good luck steem health fishes can't feed themselves.

I have to add that the narrative of bad whales and whatever is a bit harmful, do the actions from steemed seem like a conspiracy and a way to drain the pool, sure but to him it's justified based on what he thinks dan and other have done to put themselves well off on the top.

I'm still piecing things together haven't gotten to the mining part. I just know this platform is worth much more than it's used for and even then right now it's worth less than what it is supposed to. 5k active people is a small amount, we are like a small town or a big village at this stage.

Cheers mate :) and cheers to abit once again I'm off this thread :D

let us know what you figure out lol

oh a bot ok..i don't know much about those :)

Sure, but people have been caught scheming and colluding, now the accounts are powering down and off they go. @ SteeMED @ itsascam @ steemroller and whatnot, sure it was caused by some growing discontent I suppose and some hate for dan the man :D It's interesting to see the accounts still active and curating for themselves I suppose, check the steemd same time of votes, same posts, for rewards :|

A bit complicated for me ;)

https://steemd.com/@immarojas steemit/steemdb all work and you can change the name after the @ to check other profiles of in the case of steemd you can see the site and the blockhain as it is happening, so how much is the daily pool, the new posts and such,

there are other sites like http://steemitx.com/ if you want to be notified but I'm still thinking of weather I should use that and how to make it viable and easy

https://steem-ganymede.herokuapp.com/ is a nice app still learning it too

and https://steemviz.com/ is a great way to "enter the matrix" :P

Thank you! What does 'enter the matrix' mean? Will i find keanu there?

if you get the code :D

there was another scene, but this one is good enough, I'm just joking around trying to twist some minds :D

Steemit is the matrix :D you're already here on the digital frontier

I'm guessing I've watched too many movies and I have to spread that viral virus to other people :|

Enter TRON :D next stop :D

That movie makes no sense tho, the matrix is within the matrix and I don't get it by the end of it because the main character dies combating and making the matrix better in the end ?! :D

Lolsss that is so true..you could say that, how bout us illiterate?? Am glad somebody is having fun ;)

Wow...first day here and you are really helping me out thank you j3dy

It doesn't harm at all unless one write garbage and upvote it :)

that can happen lolssss
