RE: Solutions to Interactivity, Engagement and Comment Reward Problems
Interesting post, and a good summary of the problem of determining how much attention is being applied to commenting on a particular post. I have been a member of this site for about a month, and note that the vast majority of comment consists of a few words of encouragement, but nothing more substantial or sophisticated. It seems to me that the few people who have something to say will do it voluntarily, and paying for commenting will only result in flooding blogs with meaningless robotised commenting. Not every action a human being makes needs to be rewarded for it to occur. We are not Pavlovian dogs.

Yup, I mentioned that in my review, either 1) not good comments or 2) not being seen by people or SP holders to upvote and reward enough, that's why it was at 1% of total rewards to commenters that month. There are some people who put more effort. I think more interactivity features would get people to put more effort into commenting. Consciousness and attention needs the tools to be directed towards new comments anywhere, like the comment tab.
Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate it.
