RE: A New Scot Tribe On Steem! SteemAce.io For Gaming Content | Over 100k SP, 7.5k PAL And 120 Splinterlands Beta Booster To Reward Great Content and GG Stakers
With more communities, it is more of a mess to manage. If you just curate Pal you potentially alienate many users. Pal is also the best case scenario, when you start looking at other tribes that are niche, it becomes even more of a problem.
Imagine only curating SteemAce? You would be limited to only gaming posts, or you would waste your SteemAce voting power if you went outside of that niche as your Steem voting power would become out of sync.
Even more of a problem when you have a lot of stake, and don't want to vote everything for $3 on Steem, yet anything less than your 100% on SteemAce/Pal/SteemLeo and other tribes is pathetically low.
I've seen a lot of people start making alt accounts to handle their voting power on different tribes, but this means 2-10 additional accounts just to manage your voting power on these tribes. A good example, my PAL power was always 97-100%, yet my Steem voting power is usually 88%-100%. They usually differ by 10% and my PAL is frequently 100% for hours wasting a vast majority.
There is just so much cognitive load to handle these tribes, and that's not just min/maxing either, when you lose half your voting power it isn't about min-maxing.
Clearly you just need to buy a fuckton more of every coin in existence. :P
It actually really sucks when someone with a massive stake upvotes you with like 1% or something, and it's like a penny. Like how shitty was my comment? Even worse when they don't even reply. If you're gonna give a shitty vote that suggests that a comment is shit, then at least say something.
I guess the only solution is botted secondary accounts. But then how do you decide how much to vote? Maybe some kinda interface that shows what posts you upvoted that have certain tags, like with palnet or whatever, and let you set how much you upvote with your secondary?
I wouldn't take it personally, many people don't vote comments high.
It's a huge pain and stupid problem to have to deal with.
Yeah, I've moved to upvoting comments at like 30%, just so I have more VP for posts. But I pick and choose how much to upvote based on how I feel they contributed, whether or not I agree with them. Still trying to build up my SP so those upvotes suck a little less though in their actual payout though.
HF20 really made voting for comments suck.
In the past, if I voted you when I repies (which is usually well within 15 minutes, for example this is 6 minutes) I would give more to you, which is fine. Now it gets returned to the pool, so my influence is taxed based on how responsive I am.
That has been one of the things I have have really worried about. I understand why they did it...but also...it's really dumb for a number of reasons.
