RE: Timeless Content versus Timely Content - Or How Steemit Can Lock Itself Out Of Business In One Easy Step

likely they found non-expiring rewards would be too 'gameable' in some way

such as gain more steempower, go back upvote yourself or other accounts, sock-puppet or friend. Could be incentive to power up, but maybe non-expiring payout could negate the investment anyway. Extending payout would be more complicated not less.

    I don't really think so. If you have a real example, I would be really happy to analyze it. The more we can model this thing before they will start implementing it, the better it will be.

      are they going to implement it? I would like it to work to still make steem currencies indefinitely. No example in mind to my previous comment, just musing at possible reason it is 30 days only atm.

        They are listening (look at the comments, there is one from @sneak, a developer) so they may start implementing it. We can help by making the issue clearer and prevent as much trouble as possible before getting into the coding stage. As I understand, you don't have yet an example of how this could be gamed. But if you find one, leave it in a comment, I'd love to play with it and see if I can break it down.
