I disagree. She posts, she is an author, she should receive post rewards. Much better than the alternative - no communication. Plus, "decline payout" also means no curation rewards, as far as I know.

I'd like to see Stinc reliant on post rewards for it's income, instead of programmatic sales of Steem.
That would provide some much needed incentive for them to produce good results.
Post rewards themselves are a sort of an indicator, maybe even better than comments, because they are quantifiable. And declined payouts produce an anomaly, because many will not waste their VP to vote on a post which has rewards declined, even if they like it.
I don't spend my VP burning Steem on such posts. I'm pretty sure those folks that seek rewards prefer my VP spent there instead.
It is exactly the power of rewards that enable Steem to provide society mechanisms to effect, not only discuss, governance. I suspect that this is exactly why Stinc doesn't rely on rewards to fund their governing of Steem, because they're governing that society for ninjaminers, and not the platform. Bad government will be poorly rewarded by such overlords, who seem to care only for their wallets. Were Stinc rationally based with intent to effect a just society, I reckon rewards would work well to fund it, but many things would be different were that the case, and none more than the ninjamine.
I agree with you, but some people will disagree. One day, when people are angry at Steemit, Inc, they will just throw random accusations and taking rewards will be one of them.
So why anger people needlessly? Even if they are wrong, she’s the Managing Director and should try making everyone happy. She doesn’t need the 5$ from this post so why not avoid making some guys angry?

Thanks - was going to post this same link, but I see you already did 🙂
Saw this post, they can dogfood without accepting rewards. Remember @ned’s selfupvote? Look up the amount of posts written about that.

without up /down votes that would be considered fake doggy food to me
When you try to make everyone happy, you end up making no one happy. People will people and some will complain. There is no reason for @elipowell to not accept rewards on posts she takes the time to write. People were complaining she wasn't posting, now she is they will find something else. Complaining will never end.
This is one of the last reasons one would have to be angry at (more like disappointed in) Steemit, Inc.
