RE: More About the Promoted Posts and the New Voting Slider Feature
what about this ...
some of the reward of the post, should go to the commenters on that post ... and the authors gets to decide who gets how % by upvoting the comments ...
just my $0.02 SD ;-)
well, just a small part, 10% or so and ... if the author doesn't vote for any comments ... it's wasted
as in ... I'm just thinking out loud, it's just that it bothers me that many authors don't upvote any comments, while they do reply ...
but ok, never mind, it's just a small annoyance
This could work, however imaging being a popular author getting hundreds of comments under each post... it would take A LOT of time to go through all of them and decide by voting on each and every of them how much they should get. With the latest changes about voting power right on the second post you will most likely run out of voting power and then what...
Commenting and voting should just be separate as they are now, you cannot force people to leave a comment in order to be eligible to get a curation reward... and leaving a comment should not mean that you actually approve or like what is written by the author of the post.
in fact ... the voting slider might solve this, now that people can give smaller votes, they might give more of them, right?
I'm doing 1% votes for now, I'm saving up ... I went a bit wild the last couple of days, I was down to 24%, so now I'm waiting for it to refill, on 47% now
I'm curious to see what happens when I do vote 100%, while 100% full ...
Yes, the slider can help... but votign with the slider actually takes more time, especially if you want to give a different value for each and every post. I don't think many users will atually be willing to take the extra time required for doing that.
well, when you set it on 100%, you can basically vote 5 times, right?
while when you set it on 10%, you can basically vote 50 times, right?
so, people will set it according the amount of votes they tend to do daily,I guess ... because that's what I'll be doing
I think I'll set it at 10% default, use that 90% of the time, because I vote a lot, but when I do see some post that I want to give a little boost ... that's when I'll use the 100%, or ... now that I think of it ... my own post, haha!
