RE: Misconceptions About Steemit And Possible Solutions

in #steemit7 years ago

I think many people started realizing what is going on and we have to address this soon enough

Sort:  

Been punting a weekly reward cap for a month or two now... my version is that If your post payouts pass a certain threshold within the 7 day cycle any new posts are automatically payout declined...

No rewards are altered or votes removed... so if you can manage a viral biggie, then good for you... but then that's it for the rest of the week until that one is paid out

That would remove the “unattractivity” of having every single article capped, as well as give you the option to have a blast (like the guy who received 17k bucks for his surgery) and at the same time restrict you from doing this repeatedly at the expense of everyone else, with the reason being heavy drainage of the reward pool. If every article was capped, one could just spam them and he couldn’t care less about the limit.

Do you have any exact numbers in mind? What sounds like a reasonable “limit threshold” to a whale like you?

community consensus would be good to decide that and it would be easy to quantify, the weekly reward pool is a semi fixed amount of steem, just set a threshold at the consensus percentage

This one sounds good as well. Anything really to avoid the milking and consecutive trending. New people are yet again getting suspicious.
