RE: About the Whole Self-Upvoting Debate-- Let's Examine the BIGGER Perspective!

in #steemit7 years ago

To discourage the IMMEDIATE *good post follow me" shit we are getting on things that took us two hours to write....I think the developers should implement some timed mechanism so when someone clicks your post they have to be on it for say at least 2 minutes before they can comment to try and encourage people to READ

I totally agree!

Better yet, people should actually have to look at the article first in order to up-vote. Go look in the "Hot" and "Trending" sections, and you'll see all the top articles have more up-votes than views... so pathetic really.

Sort:  

So true. I say two minutes before they can comment. Because just in case they are a skimmer.....we don't want it to be too long or people might forget to comment at all. Lol

Ha ha, yeah, but somethings gotta change for sure.

All articles have an indication of how long read it is on Esteem. Maybe add the duration of embedded video into that and there you would have it. You could no longer comment or upvote on things you haven't seen. But:

The most common bots wouldn't be able to upvote anymore, trailing votes, automatically upvote your favorite bloggers wouldn't be possible anymore. You would change a very large part of what Steemit is today.

And I kinda love it here as it is, imperfect yeah, but still a great place.
