RE: Some Thoughts About the New Promoted Posts Feature
There is also another thing here, and that is how many people beside maybe "Whales" and people that also promote their content actually check the Promoted page... people need to visit it often and actually vote for content they like. I get the feeling that there are still not yet that much people doing that.
Adding a second page will only complicate things and then again will also bring the problem of people actually checking it and voting, especially when knowing that there will be no people with "sure rewards" for their votes... that goes for the people that still just vote for the curation rewards.
so no separate page, but maybe 2 days of the week set aside for users who have steem power worth less than $2000
So some people should be waiting for these two days of the week to promote their posts... and maybe not even post their good posts and save them for publishing just before the promotion window they get each week... don't think that this will be a solution either.
The best way will be just for the users with a lot of resources and established reputation to stop throwing huge amounts of SBD to promote their latest posts, most of them just don’t need it anyway… leaving the feature to these that actually need it and allowing the boost cost to normalize.
those with allot of money and no rules to govern how they spend it, will not care about what those who cant afford to spend it need or want... they will only play by the rules, not by concience
Precisely why things shold change, so that we will not have to depend on these people :D
