RE: How I figured out, why SteemSports is better than I thought, but still, why it will continue to harm Steemit if few things won't be changed

"Rewards for voting" should be revisited

You made a point what I am thinking. The oritinal design for "gamable curation for better contents" became "profitable curation with lazy and collusive upvotes".

IMO, curation should not give financial profits. Without this, people (not bots!) still can gain psychological satisfactions, which will actually lead us to better society.

Sort:  

I guess initial idea for rewards for voting was introduced because of two reasons:

  • being paid for something what you are doing on facebook for free - in theory that sounds like a good PR phrase
  • there was a big problem with lack of interest in voting for worker proposals in BitShares

But Steem is different than Bitshares and IMO, it will never have problems like bitshares have... mostly because decision that those money for post will be spent, that decision was already made. You can only influence, how those funds will be distributed.

In Bitshares everyone wonder whether it is good idea to spent money in the first place.
