RE: Why the Whale War might be good for Steemit
I think, Steemit should not only have the option to up&downvote posts but also to rate the Quality of the post. That would bring the advantage that posts which might leck of good content (because its only two lines of words or just a picture) could be grated "low Quality" e.g. five Start Rating System. This would mean that the received post earning showed at the recent time would not been paid out to 100% for "high Quality" but maybe only to 20% "low quality". While the amount of the post is depended on the Steempower Votes received, the Quality Index would be steempower neutral and only collects the Ratings from all viewers. What do you think would this help the situation?
I like your idea and it could be done at the website or condenser level. I think a lot of our issue is the culture, terminology and understanding of how the system is supposed to work. A flag here and a flag on facebook or reddit are two different things. I'm going to be thinking of some solutions in the coming weeks.
I like this idea! The quality of content is subjective and impossible to define by one individual. It would introduce a way for everyone to vote on quality with the same power. But then again, how do you prevent people from creating shittons of bots and pushing their quality upwards?
