RE: Self-voting, Vote Trading and Enlightened Game Theory

in #steemit7 years ago

I think if the standard reputation couldn't be affected by self-voting, then that might be a good idea, but unfortunately I think many existing reps have now been distorted by the self-voting problem itself.

It may not be popular, but actually if in the next hard-fork, the reputations were recalculated not to include self-voting, this may help. Of course though, it wouldn't do anything to solve the problems where reps had been artificially elevated though vote trading and sock puppets.

An additional curation rep is an interesting idea that I'd need to think about more, but it sounds intuitively like it might be good. It does have the disadvantage making thing seem more complex for the user, although I guess it could be hidden from the interface.

Indeed, I was thinking of curation rep as being hidden from the interface.

If the curve for curation was changed so that the more of it you did, the more rewarding it was over long periods of time, perhaps that would help too. Similar end achieved as adding a curation reputation.
