RE: WOW!!! I found a much better decentralised social media network guys!!! It's better than Steem!!!
I'd personally be in favour of trying something in between linear and n^2. Or else maybe the default acceptable position for every account here is to somehow have a good chunk of SP like 90% somehow coming back to voters, and only 10% gets distributed to others. Now i'm still at about 2% vs 98%, hence the suckerish feeling lol.
you're a good man Kevin, but even a strong community builder like you must have some influence on him, 98% is not sustainable, and when people of influence and talent do it, it's almost worst, it telling other talent and also leaders like yourself, that if you are in profit, or if you succeed here, DO NOT re-invest to build the house that homes your great wealth, let it slowly collapse.
would it not be better if they just cash out now at 10x profit, let new blood, new whales will probably do more than just pull close to 100% resources out and slow down adoption, talent retention.... the last 4 months we have almost 350-400K new accounts and dropping posting and even a slight drop in active usage rate in the last 2 months, plateauing at best.....how is that even possible a certain % should naturally be talent..... that is unless people don't get incentivised to stay cause the rewards are being slowly and invisibly pulled away?
I think there needs to be a push on changing the reward curve that currently incentivices selfish-mining. Now that I'm doing ~1-2% self all along, I might have my SP 50% lower than a purely selfish miner with the same SP today, in maybe a year or two. So in effect, I'll be having less to support others in the future from doing what I do today. Plus the big thing is that it's an open platform and everyone's free to do whatever they want - there's no guarantee of rewards. It's not like getting hired for a job doing X, Y, and, Z.
Why would anyone now give more of their votes away to help grow the network when on the long-term, the reward curve isn't encouraging more investors to spread out the votes other than to themselves? Now that I've not been onto selfish-mining ever since most people are onto it since HF equality was introduced, imagine how much influence has been diluted on my side?
It's almost a crime not to have kept up with the rational move for the long-term game after hf equality has taken place. I was a bit naive thinking most would stay on course of distributing the stakes to grow the network. It's really not clear cut what the best move is @dj123.
Sorry to say, but it's also arguable that it's easy for most new users to complain while providing trivial contributions (to be fair, like 99.99% of us) on the network, which on the whole, any rewards would be a great bonus that shouldn't be taken at face value at current valuations. But all in all, the reward curve could change to make altruism equally profitable so more people will shift away from selfish-mining. Either that or a community where connections are made closer over time so effective altruism can take place.
