RE: Now you see that STEEM POWER will always triumph because influence caps are dumb.

It seems to me they should have landed on something between quadratic and linear. I think Dan the man recommended a log function. I think something like n^1.1 would have done the trick. A self vote is worth less than getting others to agree but if you don’t even think what you write is worth a vote, why write it at all?

Sort:  

It ain't broke, why fix it? Linear isn't broken. Just because people won't flag doesn't mean we should abandon linear. So far, that's the only valid reason I've been presented. Abandon linear so that people with more voting power (but not me) have even more to work with. I don't think we need it if people would just do their job.

And if people won't do their job, that's also no reason to push the work to bigger stakeholders. If they think their job is that worthless, then that should be reflected in the market, which will show how worthless Proof of Brain is on the open market (low STEEM price).

I don't think Proof of Brain is worthless. I think we can get our act together and do our jobs.
