BAW is very good at math.
I'd suggest not running any schemes and stick to creating 'good' content.
Folks are real touchy about the reward pool that way.

Thanks for your help. I'm sure the OGs here have a ton of reasons for their actions, but I gotta say it's really discouraging to people like myself who come in new and try to "innovate" in this ecosystem. It seems whatever has been happening on Hive has not really led to huge success in terms of price lately (which has started a lot of different initiatives), but if this community doesn't appreciate any development outside of "creating good content", I guess I'll just leave you all to it. I didn't mean to extract any value from the pool (and I'm clearly not doing that), I was meaning to inject value into the ecosystem, spending my own time and money on building and running the app, and if this isn't wanted, fair enough.
You are not the first one to try something like this, they got shut down, too.
IF hive was easy, everybody would be doing it.
IF everybody does it, the pool doesn't spread as thick.
I don't know why baw has flagged you, I can only surmise.
I'm just saying that folks that make 'good' original content generally don't get flagged, but folks that promise votes in return for whatever often get zeroed.
Well, that's where I think it's going the wrong way. Hive SHOULD be easy, and everybody SHOULD be doing it. There's about 1000 other blockchains out there that don't discourage people from building on them / with them / for them, so I'll just take my motivation elsewhere, just like the other people who've had good intentions but got shut down. To me, I don't care about the rewards, but the negative reputation dramatically impacts the visibility of the service, so I won't be fighting windmills.
It would've been easy to just go and say "hey, appreciate the effort, but maybe you'd rather do things this or that way" (some people did that), but if building ANYTHING that interacts with Hive posts is not wanted here, like I said, I'm out.
It's not that you are not welcome, we need all the people we can get, but certain behaviors don't fly in this environment and we've had close to 10 years to figure all that out.
Make original content, every time, and you will likely have no further problems.
I'm not here to make content for a potential audience of a few thousand people just to get paid a few cents in a depreciating token. The ecosystem had those ten years to figure out how to grow, and that clearly hasn't been working. After I dug into all kinds of aspects of Hive, I was fascinated with the possibilities of creating products on this blockchain (specifically products that could inject value rather than just extract or redistribute tokens coming out of inflation). So that's what I tried doing, but there's absolutely no reason for me to continue trying if this isn't wanted. It's a lot easier to build with a blockchain that has more standardized tech (like any EVM) and that is generally on an upward trajectory, so I won't bother anymore trying to help with the Hive ecosystem and instead focus on the other things I've been building.
Ok, bye.
