RE: HF Proposal - Is it time to decrease or remove the 30 minute author-curation reward window.
Thanks for the insight @j3dy. That makes a lot of sense, and the vote trails are very difficult to stop, and I suppose in that respect it is better to reward the author than the bots. Fron what I have seen, these trails only vote with a very small %, so would they have that much bigger an impact on those giving 100% votes if the time was reduced by even half?
it quickly drains voting power and people still do manual curation. the overall payout would be the same, they would probably get more rewards. It's stake based anyways. I don't know the reward algorithm but the earlier you catch the post the bigger the percentage of the reward for curation, it's still stake based so someone voting with 10usd on a post that's 0 lets say on the 30 minute mark, should get .00something(?5) if the post pays out 50 but the person that voted the 50 would get probably most of the rewards, so 10usd, it's how investors should be rewarded, for their buying in the stake of the platform.
I don't know the math tho. I did spend around 2 months voting and getting no rewards tho :D once when a post earned some decent payout and I caught it without any bots on it I did get my first reward, then I went on a hunt for steem, the rest is history :D I didn't make much :D
