RE: Killer Whales: Self-Voting vs. the Bid-Bot (A Thought Experiment)
I know many will disagree, but I think the moral way to make money would be for #1 to:
- Do a smallish upvote on his post.
- Comment on his own post.
- Do a massive upvote on the comment.
Let me explain why. in the end it is the quality of content that determines the value of the platform. It is the integrity of curation that is crucial for the quality of content. Both the bid bots and the use of disproportional self-upvotes on blog posts will hurt the integrity of the curation system and with that the value of the platform.
Upvoting comments may be frowned upon by many as reward pool rape, and i think they are right about that part, it isn't the reward pool rape that is the real problem, it's destroying the curation system's integrity and allowing subpar content to get top listing that is a problem to the long-term value of the platform as a whole.
When in Sodom, be a Sodomite.
