I won't be enforcing any policies at all my friend! It is simply a suggestion that hopefully makes some of us think a little more about what we are giving and what we are getting back from our time here and whether or not we should be giving more back or taking less out. :) A shower thought some would call it! :)
I have lived through the flag wars on steemit. Just wait for hardfork 19 is my suggestion. I already see potential problems with the new hardfork and I'm sure many of those "new accounts" we are seeing daily are actually fake accounts that will be used to auto vote for people, but we will see what happens. Currently the only way posts are going to be limited is by flagging and we lose that war I promise you. I still have posts that were flagged invisible for no reason whatsoever. Posts with a whole $1.50 payout were flagged by whale accounts for being "over valued." What you suggested, while I can say I partly agree with it, just isn't going to happen and if it did, it wouldn't be what you wanted. Right now stake weight determines power 100% and there's only a few people that matter in that war.
I agree. I am under no illusions that my post will change things around here but we all have to do our bit to make sure that we are all thinking clearly and not being distracted. I don't know the politics of steemit and don't have any inclination to know really I just want to do what I can to ensure that this platform doesn't become like the rest although those who know me a bit better know also that I am very skeptical of all social media platforms and this one especially! I don't expect things to turn out well here but I hope to try with the help of others to make it the place that the majority of us would like to see it become. An honest, helpful, respectful , friendly community!
Some members here that I would call friends believe this to be the case also and I trust their judgement in lieu of my own understanding and knowledge of the workings of the platform!
Those would be TROLLS.
There is plenty of room for corruption here,.. and it exists.
I run a news blog (all sourced) and I have come under dispute by a group called steemit cleaners.
They love flagging posts on CLINTON's, PEDOGATE and atrocities of ISRAEL. Odd they keep claiming plagiarism. I guess they think the same way about DRUDGE REPORT, AP news wire, and the likes.
Somehow my time of scouring the world news and posting what I think people may not see is not considered any way important.

Hope your day is going well @clayborn!

It's not a perfect system, but it's going to be working entirely differently soon, so I'm waiting for the new and not worrying about the old/current.
