RE: A Declaration of Principles

in #steem6 years ago

There are a couple of things I do not fully agree with and others that I thin should be added.

One thing I am not agreeing with is the idea of votes, be it up or down, should always be worth equally. We love the idea of equality, but at the end of the day, we are not. Some people are smarter than others, some do value quality, others do not, some just don't care and some may just be super picky.

Some individuality in some way or form when it comes to the worth of an individual worth needs to be taken into account.

Another thing I would like to see being changed is the idea of having multiple accounts. I think that this is something that should be discouraged.

The idea of a vote being worth the same isn't about everyone's votes being with the same as each other. The basic concept of Steem is that your vote value grows either by investing or by participating and powering up, and I don't want to change that.

That principle is simply: when you're deciding whether to cast your vote on this post or some other post, it should be worth the same either way. You shouldn't have to make a decision that you could vote on this post, but the same vote would be worth 50% more if you voted on that other post, so now which one do you want to do?

Aaah, okay. That I can get behind a bit more.
