RE: IT TAKES A VILLAGE! ($1579+ removed from @haejin's rewards!!!)

in #givingback6 years ago (edited)

Here's a valid question - if haejin's crypto predictions are so valuable, then a) he would be making huge money from trading and b) so will his fans.. so, therefore, how much money do he and his followers invest in steem from their trading profits? Maybe overall his posts would increase the price of steem and be good for everyone - if they are truly valuable. If they are not valuable and don't produce benefits and don't reflect proof of brain, then why does anyone support or upvote him ?

I just made a whole post on this subject.

I agree with you...smh...I am certain that a hard fork would have been done long ago to prevent such tactics, if it wasn't of extreme benefit to the owners of this platform. It's all just business in reality.

Btw, I have a solution to reward pool abuse. Feel free to let me know what you think.

I'm glad to see that you've written a post on the topic. I will take a look.

Best regards.

Peace.

Thanks - I read your post, but I'm not sure how that idea would prevent reward pool abuse.. Wouldn't the extra visibility of a user's other posts just result in more eyes on those posts, without actually affecting posting and voting patterns much?

more eyes

More eyes...more opportunity to make one's work more visible....more opportunity for a tip, as opposed to zero eyes....zero visibility...and zero opportunity to increase the payout.

I realize this could add power to @haejins everywhere to get more visibility for their work; but, they tend to just put all of their current posts in every article. So, I'm leaving them out of the equation.

As noted, I'm primarily interested in getting more visibility for everyone. As is, TRENDING is where the majority of attention is spotlighted; not to mention the rme/smh bot-buying.

I hope this helps.

Best regards.

Peace.
