RE: Partial Solution To Self-Upvote Stampede

in #selfvotes7 years ago

I disagree with self upvoting "SHUN LISTS" a great deal, and here is why.

First of all, do lists like this, REALLY ASSESS the quality of people's comments, they are upvoting for themselves?

Secondly, do they assess if the same up-voters are also spreading the love for others they are interacting with?

Thirdly, should the community be deciding these things as self-formed vigilante groups, or petitioning the developers of steemit, to change the self voting rules?

I could go on and on and on, but I think that pretty well sums up several of my ideas, and I will now self vote myself, as well as several others, that I liked that commented as well.

PS - please let me know if you plan to shun me, so I can be sure not to:

Sort:  

Yes, we have to look at:

  • Comments are 40% of payouts, Posts are xx%, etc. - does that need to change?
  • When I upvote my own comment; it goes higher in the sort order, I like that.. does that need to change?
