RE: Proposal to make spam less profitable
or several small ones
I have votes with 7 upvotes and 0 payout. How many upvotes would you need?
https://steemit.com/steem/@krischik/seven-upvotes-and-no-payout
is it actually adding sufficient value to the network to warrant a payout?
Wrong question: Will the network be adding sufficient value for me to stay.
You are removing what make your network unique (monetisation for small accounts) while the competition (https://www.minds.com) is catching on.
Steem is a stake based systems. Votes from users with more stake are worth more.
Nobody is really entitled to rewards here. There are (unfortunately) lots of users that do add value that are under paid. Getting noticed is really one of the big struggles here. It is going to be the same on most platforms though. If anyone can just show up and start earning tons of money without adding value, then that is probably not a sustainable system.
Which is not a bad thing. For example on Minds all votes are the same and I am not sure that's a good idea. We see how that goes.
I am a bit on the middle ground here: I think a stake bases system is a good idea but I am unsure of an unlimited and linear stake based system because that is very difficult to balance.
