RE: Pre-Release: HF19 Linear Rewards!
Users won't have to ration their voting power. They can if they wish, but their network influence will be the same regardless of how many times they vote, so long as it's equal to or greater than 10/day.
Any active user would most certainly have to ration. The issue is an active user's influence will now be the same as an inactive user's influence as long as they vote 10 per day. So it doesn't matter if I spend 10 minutes voting on 10 posts/comments or I spend 3 hours voting on a 100. Overall, active users will be crowded out of the reward pool and disincentivized to curate actively.
And this is just now. What happens when there's 100,000 posts/comments per day? That's nothing - it could happen overnight if Steemit were to go viral. Are we really going to force users to target 10 votes out of 100,000? That's absurd.
I don't think it makes a difference how many users/posts we have each day. As we get more and more users, we also get that many more people voting.
I think we fundamentally disagree there. I can only speak for my experience curating. The number of votes I make is absolutely tied to activity. Especially now, there are probably 100 good posts by new comers every single day. And yes, a vast majority of these go unnoticed.
LOVE YOUR RESPONSES. NOW I SEE THE DANGER OF THIS HF. WHAT CAN BE DONE BEFORE ITS IMPLEMENTED?
MOST USERS, NOOBS LIKE ME, DONT CHANGE VOTING POWER PERCENTAGE AND WHEN WE KNOW 10 VOTES IS ALL THERE IS FOR THE DAY... THAT IS POWERFUL... WE GET REAL PICKY.
CONSEQUENCE: AUTHORS GO PUNISHED.
