RE: Voting Abuse and Ineffective Curation: A proposal for blockchain-level change

in #steem7 years ago

Even though my rewards are usually crazy low for my content, I can't imagine why you would want to eliminate them. What incentive at all would creators have to spend time on posts? Right now, my incentive is a couple of fractions of a reward and the hope that I can slowly build followers.

Sort:  

Without creator rewards the system would be more simple and those who create content just for the money will stop. Good creators create because they like to create and theyr creations to be seen by many, and voted only by good curators.

Well, you have a point. I participate in Quora and Reddit just because I enjoy it. The current system somehow doesn't generate that joy here for me. I appreciate your perspective, really. I'm still new, so I'm trying to figure this out. I remember being new on Reddit and being totally confused before it somehow clicked.

I still feel like that on Reddit. Not on Quora though, I love that system (note that it is above the community; I've even had my share of trolls and haters, but the fact remains being able to ask & answer like that is kind of priceless).

Agree, I also spend plenty of time on Quora just because it's interesting.

It is also well thought out, there are no loose ends anywhere to be found --that's what I think at least.
