RE: Steemers won't waste their votes on comments … voting power is money, voting on comments doesn’t make money.

in #steemit8 years ago

The filtering of garbage is an absolute priority, I agree. But if would could have a system that doesn't hurt that filtering and incentivise people to comment more (because they also could have rewards accordingly to the time they spend) it would be amazing. There is not a lot of conversations on the comment section because people are spending all their time in the platform trying to make money and there is no money to be made in comments.

Even if there were no disadvantage to upvoting a comment it would be worlds better. Every click on a comment is disadvantageous to me in that I could have pushed something toward the front page, right? That's my understanding. Obviously content creation counts most. Not even quality content. I don't feel like I even have to do the math. Even content that is meh-received has a better return on time investment, which in turn gives you more voting power (==free money.) If the comment voting system were prioritized, better quality content will rise to the top and I, personally, would appreciate much more the creators that were being rewarded.

You got it augere !

Why would anyone vote a comment when they can click on any new post that speaks about steem or cryptocurrencies and probably get more money out of it ?

They would, against their own logic but only rarely when they are really "touched" by the comment. It's clearly not enought in this system !
