Excellent. This is helpful. I endeavor to include something similar when I introduce guidelines for plagiarism/moderation. The first release is for review and recommendations only. I need community input before submitting it for proposals. It will be vetted again after revision through the approval process. I expect the approval process to be the longest part.

It took me a long time to put together a lot of what you presented. I had my own ideas and I put pen to paper, but there's only so many searches through peakD that's possible. I've been through all of the POB-discussions at this point. I reviewed as many HW posts as possible.

There are some things that weren't common knowledge:

• Rewards belong to the reward pool until the 7th day (i.e., never guaranteed)
• Common usage and basis for the DV (i.e., why its free vs. based on stake)
• DV financial benefit to the caster. Yeah, it doesn't make friends. Jesus.

I am familiar with the DPOS term and significance. I am not familiar with the politics or some of its customs.

One goal of mine with POB is to keep these guidelines at the forefront of the interface. I imagine a time when users, for instance, utilizing the POB-Ecency front can just click on a convenient link to see the policies we develop. Mind you, it won't solve all the issues of communication, but I believe its a start.
