Dear @steemingcurators

May I ask you how long have you been around? Did you use Steemit before non-linear curation rewards curve has been introduced?

It is very IMPORTANT question. After all - non-linear curve has been introduced to solve some particular problems, which were of real importance at that time.

I clearly remember, how much effort has been invested into implementing this change and going through math. And it all took place for one simple reason: TO FIGHT WITH BIDBOTS.`

Don't get me wrong, but saying 'Negatives of having NO extra rewards for voting early.: As you can see, I have blanks here people.' only proves to me, that you are not prepared and you didn't do homework. No offence, but this is the way it is.

If we want to go back to the way things were (which means, that we would move few steps backward) then we need to find ways of dealing with those problems. We need to figure out how to avoid new upvoting bots flourishing? How can we avoid buing upvotes?
Please, come with some solutions to this particular problem. I'm not saying that removing non-linear curve is wrong. But it NEED to come with solution to previous problems. We cannot simply move back and forth. And again back and forth.

It's a bit to optimistic and naive to assume, that previous problem will not come back. It surely will. And bidbots were perfect tool, which allows to milk this blockchain without many limitations.

Yours, Piotr
