RE: Where is going Steemit popularity?
Having reputation is a component of RC isn't a bad idea but it then opens up a space for abuse because if im a large account I could just make alt accounts make a simple post, upvote it and drive my rep up and now have access to additional RC. We saw this with the whole byteball saga and we all know rep is a flawed system that why UA is being punted the way it is.
So perhaps it can be factored in but it should not have a large influence over the RC allocation
Dear @chekohler, thank you for your comment, i know there could be some liers but in front of a big problem we need to find the solution. Regarding UA i do not understand how it is working, the only thing i know is that i got more reputation in 2 week of power delegation to them than 9 months of daily use if Steemit, thats is free service or is a biz?
Well reputation doesn't mean much at the moment its more of a vanity metric than anything else. Like you could be a 60 by luck or you could be a 60+ because you worked hard or you bought upvotes, there is no way to differentiate between how you got there. Steem-UA is more an activity based model and looks at how you contribute to steem regularly and rewards you for it, its not really an alternative but a way to reward users and measure engagement between other active users
Well look at this:
This is my Smartsteem account and you can see there is my User Authority position since i started to give them 25SP and 25SP to Steem-UA 3 weeks ago.
Now my situation is:
So in 3 weeks i deserved almost what i got in 9 months?
I am not so sure...
The question would be:
Where is smartsteem pulling their data for the UA Score?
Is it being updated? If so, how often?
I would use the direct site from steem-ua to determine UA score. I have smartsteem on my personal account, and my ranking on the smartsteem site shows as 1 something. When steem-ua stopped by my post, my ranking showed as being around 3 something.
Going directly to the source with steem-ua is best, imo.
Dear @beeyou, i see it too, look at it:
But my real UA score is:
I think Smartsteem do not upgrade UA
exacly. that would open space for abuse
you're very right @chekohler
thx for great post @intellihandling. I hope you're not frustrated with HF20 so much anymore
yours,
