RE: How is the Flagging Whale-Votes Experiment Going?
I agree with this to a certain extent, but the problem is they don't actually see what is fit since they are using bots most of the time. If they actually voted up or down using their own view of the subject then I would be cool with it. You are actually engaging with this post so even though I might not agree I would respect a downvote from you more.
Nobody deserves $100+/day re-writing shit and adding a flare of "consciousness" to it, plain and simple. If his ideas were so original they wouldn't all require half a dozen references at the end. The feeling of entitlement is what needs to stop here, not the flagging.
Sure I see things that get over $100 a day that do not deserve it, but that's just my opinion. We have to protect the platform and encourage user participation at the same time. Do you think putting a cap on the max reward would help to distribute rewards more evenly? Maybe $5 max per post or something
I believe there are posts that are deserving of more than that. What I don't believe in is people writing content ONLY for the rewards like we're seeing in this case.
I agree with engagement here. Krnel is here for only one reason, money. If his posts added value this would be ok. But in his current form he is of no benefit t the growth or health of the platform, quite the opposite actually. We could support 20 other users of equal or greater talent with the amount of rewards that Krnel gets. As we can all see now that the rewards are gone so is "4 post per day" Krnel. In addition to that most of his posts are full new age religious lies and circle jerk philosophy.
