RE: Change the Reputation algorithm or else get rid of it - It is ridiculous as it is
I have to say you make slot of sense. I understand that steemit encourages people to want to be like “rich” people by giving them more power on the platform, but that is truly not the best way forward for a community and social platform like this.
If that power is genuinely earned and deserved, we should have no problem, but when it is a result of some people gaming the system, then it becomes bad. Thanks for your thoughts, @leggy23
Totally on the point. Nevertheless @mirrors, much of this power is mostly not earned and deserved, i mean, we're talking about the famous whales around here and they know themselves very well who they are. I would mention all of them here but i'm way too afraid i'd get flagged and rendered to zero. Of them all i've read about Jerry Banfield's scams so for sure his reputation is not a well earned one. I wish we the minnows have some power as well, but as you see i only write poetry and it barely gets noticed anyway so, i can not even dream of having the power to change something. Thank you though.
You will get noticed, @oculussensori. I mean, it is not like i am saying it is easy, but as in everything, hard work and persistence are key. The game here is pretty much unbalanced in several ways, i agree. And we have 'faulty' technical controls such as Reputation as well as behavioral modulators, but we have to work within their 'unfair' rules and hope they will in due time be fixed.
Thanks for your thoughts. Much appreciated.
Thank you @mirrors, i appreciate your words. Yes indeed i will continue with what i like to do even though it gets appreciated or not. I feel so much relieved putting all this out....
And if there's anything i can do to help for the better, please let me know, and i will do my best. Greetings @mirrors .
I am glad. @oculussensori. Keep posting good content, engage, and stay in touch.
