Well how is it that you're going to remove the advantage auto voters have?
And for that matter why is it that you think shortening window is going to help you not be penalized for actually viewing and voting on your own schedule... If we took it all the way down due to ours that would prevent you from ever being able to vote on things unless it was immediately posted.
Honestly enough sounds great on paper going to end up really bad in the execution
If I spend five minutes talking to you, auto voters have already positioned themselves to earn more on the post I'm about to go look at once I'm done here. My late vote ensures they earn more, and they didn't even have to consume that content. My goal is to support content, not those who voted early without even looking at what they voted for.
If that window is increased, then I could spend all day here talking to you, then go visit that post whenever, and give/get a fair share.
Ok I like where you are going with this.
This has to be combined with the removal of early voting penalties. It's such a delicate balancing act. If there is a point where automated maximizers vote, I'm thinking those who got in early and voted manually should be the ones being rewarded along with the creator. Basically flipping what we do now. I don't even know if that's possible. I just know what we do now is backwards.
Ok I can see this. Change it so people that vote later make rewards.
Well wow.
Sounds great at the total cost of all of your communities.
And you are really showing more totalitarianism control exclusion behavior than you are showing inclusiveness.
But hey. Who am I? Just some idiot you are explaining this to.
If you and others would listen maybe we could retain more users. Instead of the low onboarding and low retention we have always experienced.
But hey I'm just an idiot. Too broke to change anything.
And honestly sorry I even spoke up.
Never mind. Do what ever you wish.
There's no need to sit here and call yourself names.
I didn't reply as well - I think nonames explained it better :)
Writing a bit of code isn't content curation. Catering to autovoters is anathema to the idea of a creative community where people interact.
