I disagree that we should either 100% allow self-voting or remove it completely but I foresee that there is possibly no solution to this "issue" because those who want to game the system will game it no matter what.
Even with KYC those who want to self-vote could simply create alt accounts and still self-vote as much as they want.
Every system that has ever been made by a human can be gamed by a human. You cannot possibly prevent it 100%. But you can make it more difficult, and by doing so, decrease the probability/percentage of such events.
Just because you can always think of ways how a certain system can be gamed, that doesn't mean we should stop trying to improve things, and just sink into the nihilism that nothing makes sense anyway.
But of course, I'm not that stupid to actually believe that STEEM ecosystem is about quality, fair play and growth.
Well said! I agree with you wholeheartedly.
I think that this system will always stay as is because Stinc obviously has no intention in fighting self-voting.
Self votes should not be allowed
