RE: Gamification, influence: Importance of a level playing field
I upvoted your post/mine for the discussion but disagree that there should be different class of accounts / role. Whale will just split their account and will be harder to follow.
With great power comes great responsibility.
We should start by flattening the reward curve. A simple way that could help people not feel so small is to change the $0.00 into 0.0000
Whales would be highly discouraged to split because they won't receive any financial reward if they do.
The more whales do split the faster the ones who don't will build up their power.
If whales were to split and upvote their shit posts they would get moderated by other whales. The system would be a lot more scrutinized than it is now and posts would get paid based on their true value so users who want to cheat the system will have to post quality content to receive good payouts in which case they probably deserve it anyway
And yes I also think the curve should be flattened, removed actually. I'm not sure it would make much of a difference but we will see, it's in hard fork 17 apparently.
