RE: Just a thought: Getting paid for older posts
now if you got one viral post that kept paying, will you put effort in creating more? serving the search engines here is very organically key here and perhaps blockchain is better a tool if used to attain real human growth. as much as we want an audience etc real personal growth by mining the mind incessantly is key. in the past post paid out for 30 days, so perhaps there will be changes in the future. your older posts dont get lost and can still bring rewards and even opportunities. they stay reachable in the search engines and yes steem posts do a lot better in terms of ranking in search engines.
I believe it is shown so many other places that even though older posts generate a certain value people are still motivated to work more. (for example, if you have a blog website with ads) In fact, maybe people would put more effort into making actual valuable "timeless" posts if they knew they could keep generate revenue for them.
At least that seems to be the trend outside of Steem(it)
Just my humble opinion of course:)

for sure bro. I would love that too. I just try to seek out out good from even the not so good or at least testimonial use for good. this post is one in the right direction and this is among what stirs change. many have requested this. I am commending this while also painting light on options so one doesnt lose out on the other beauty. these are stuff developers can integrate but not necessarily on steemit currently, though that can happen is why I mentioned that in the past it was 30 days long and now seven and perhaps change can happen again in the near future. in the near term though I see this happening on smt level where coin creators can create their own parameters for coin distrubtion. I know there are developers seeking ways to implement just these. I can remember them currently, but if you explore steemprojects.com and say utopian.rocks yoy will see things in works and perhaps a pull request comment especially for the opeb source projects can help. my token is called the @teardrops smt and I di plan on rewarding past deeds too. my creation is ulogs.org and it is still in works to play some of these things out. the other one is steemgigs.org and the last is macrohard.
I started out in similar fashion as content creator. I also have a witness called "steemgigs".
the direction I came in with in this comment is simply to highlight other facets of steem as well, while indicating that it is possible what is being asked as change with regards to thid has happened in the past. in the past payout was 24 hours too. this is simply evidence that change can indeed happen. while a major step is discussion, exploring other facets of steem, will add to our effectivity in bringing about this change.
I am not exactly sure why rewards arent endless but in general I do think it is sustenable with the same reward pool as not many people end up on older post compared to active ones and this is the selling point of some other blockchain-based platform and I think we will see this happen over time but mostly with smt.
