Hmmm I tend to agree that not change the linear curve for rewards is probably the best course of action right now, BUT I have also used bots to try and boost my posts for more visibility and found that while I may get a little better payout, I never seem to increase in reputation...
I am not sure why that is (been stuck at 48 for like 6+ months). It seems that 50+ reputation gets a flood of people voting for you for the curation rewards.
Damn... really trying to wrap my head around all the issues surrounding rewards and reputation, but im still confused!?!?
Looking forward to the live stream, maybe that will clear some things up.
