Very good advice my friend! I think this can be of great help to the steemit community and can help all those new users. That's where this is needed and welcome!
You make some great points. I would love for this to become the norm. I think more clarity on voting is needed though for this to really take off. The average new user needs an intuitive understanding of exactly how much each vote counts beforehand. We are close, but not there yet. Again, this has super potential. Great insights.
Thanks! It'll always be a bit difficult based on the fact that other peoples votes on other content can influence everyone else's vote! That's just the nature of the reward pool system. There's always going to be a bit of a retroactive calculation. Todays changes make it much easier to calculate the contribution of a vote though as the linear system makes an individuals vote much more consistent.
I think eventually some great developer will come along and work out a User Interface for this type of use and we'll be off to the races!
This would be an amazing feature - I have like 5 kickstarter something or other type projects I just never get to because I just haven't built any rep up on those sites. It would be really nice to have everything in one place with a following that you have been slowly growing over time. All in one place. See, I could start something new there but projects do better if the backers know the creator. This would stop any mistrust and it would also stop "crap" that kickstarter has to deal with because creators would be hounded by their audience everyday to finish what was promised to them... IT creates a little something I like to call "hassle accountability" this is when the hassle of not completing something forces you to deliver. It would keep content creators locked in with their audience too.
Exactly! The growing SteemGigs movement adds to the ecosystem as well.
I really think I'll be able to promote a comic through Steemit, Zappl, & Steepshot, crowdfund it, and find, hire, & transact with freelance artists through an on blockchain smart contracts & escrow transfer system that replaces Fiverr and other creative freelancing sites.
All tied to the same reputation and online account/presence like you've described!

Interesting concept.
