RE: Self-Upvoting – The scourge of HF 19? - Is there a solution?
Thanks for reading. I agree they can be invaluable services, however, what if you are upvoting poor content. I know this is subjective, but it can be and is being abused by some users.
As to changing the rewards curve, whales have been here a while and still need to keep their relative influence, I feel that some minnows are just posting poor quality too and upvoting themselves into oblivion. This is occurring across all levels of power as well though.
Absolutely whales should retain their overall power - but perhaps the distribution of their voting power can return closer to pre-hf19 levels relative to their overall sp. Minnows may try to self upvote to oblivion but my 100% is worth 7 cents so it wouldn't matter so much. This would mean more votes for whales before running out of power but less abolity to catapult with a single vote
As to using randowhale and whatnot on bad content - or even lots more bad content existing - yeah. I think adding communities to steemit will help with that - so communities or community mods can better manage their tags contents and crap can be weeded out
I like your thinking. I do see whales now being able to trend posts by themselves. Before the HF it took a group to get something trending.
I also think the communities will make things better and easier to manage.
