RE: [SteemIt Poll] Does Anybody Browse The Promoted Tab? Would It Hurt To Have Advertising On The Front Page?
We should allow older posts to receive upvotes before we bring advertisements into Steemit, if we allow adds in without some sort of continued payments for older posts, then we will be in a situation where everyone receives the benefits of the revenue generated by an older article except for the original author or who controls their estate.
@gonzo I agree totally I find it strange the one month period for upvotes is a big detractor for Steem but luckily it doesn't seem to be common knowledge yet
this is not going to happen, at least not in the near future. To support 3rd voting period, memory usage of node would have to increase even more (and even right now it is huge). Moreover, it is better for platform to support authors which writes regularly. If you find good post of some author, but you cannot vote for him, you can always follow him and upvote him as soon as he will write another good article.
