RE: Assume a can opener -- A critique of the snowflake plan
The mirror image of this problem is that it would be exceptionally difficult, perhaps even impossible, to counter a whale downvote
One version of the proposal (maybe only discussed in chat) would allow whale upvoting to the extent of previous whale downvoting on the same content. So whale moderators (upvoting) could still cancel out other whale moderators (downvoting)
@smooth how about if the whales also just regulate their votes so no other whale will have to down vote the post that looks like overly rewarded - it's a waste of voting power doing that or I could be wrong. Anyway, please check your chat I sent you a reminder, thank you very much!
Yeah... SF mentioned that. You could also simply alter conversion of SP to Rshares for mod downvotes to make them more overcomable. Its really the most easy to address objection. though it bears pointing out that youre taking an already relatively complex system (steemit voting), making it more complex by differentiating moderators and regular voters both of which have seperate sets of voting rights and rewards, then making it even more complex by having the mod - on - mod vote canceling privelages (or the seperate rshare conversion or however you address it)
