RE: #1 Steem Lottery - A Weekly Jackpot
Everyone loves free stuff, but I'm wondering if this undermines the intent of giving awards to things that earn it the "old fashioned" way.
There is a fixed reward pool, if I'm not mistaken. I'm a bit new, so things are still not totally concrete for me just yet.
If your lottery becomes well-known and popular, and apparently there is another one that is -- doesn't it just drain the pool and under-served posts just languish because people wanted an easy payday?
If so, it makes me a bit sad that greed overrides quality content.
hmm I'm not sure. I personally don't feel that my idea came out of greed, more out of fun and curiosity to test the platforms possibilities. In the end its the community that votes and decide. So far not so much response so people might agree with you. I personally agree on the point that this should not undermine writers who put a lot of effort in great articles. Thanks for response @talltim :)
