I think I could get behind the fact the haejin isn't the biggest issue. I think bid bots are overall more harmful. I think it would be hard to pinpoint a specific user that takes a piece of the reward pool like haejin does though.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Haejin does take a lot of the reward pool, there is no denying it. However, the number of people who follow him and upvote him is only going to increase, so it will only get worse.
Steem needs to come up with a solution, because it isn't haejin's fault.
Some say to limit his posts to a certain number a day, though this would not allow him to make time sensitive price predictions. There are a lot of coins he tries to cover.
I think the reward pool should simply be bigger, as it wouldn't take away from haejin's earnings.
Sounds kinda counter productive, if the pools were bigger, it wouldn't change the effective precentage of the pool, and what spending power that would be.
Imagine if instead of $1 for a candy bar it was $100 and for every 1 dollar you earn it is actually $100 does that change anything? The "cut" you get would be the same, even if the numbers change, because the numbers are arbitrary, if he wanted to do up to the minute predictions, start a livestream show or something, you don't have to spam post. What they should do is limit posts in a more serious manner to 4, after 4 posts your rewards will diminish until 6 where you basically are forced to deny payout. Anyone who actually has something to say should be able to do it in less than 6 posts a day.
If the reward pool is larger and haejin recieves the same amount he is currently getting he would recieve a smaller percent. I don't need the lesson on numbers, and I disagree that they should lower the number of posts.
Haejin shouldn't provide us with less content just because the system is broken. The system should be fixed.
Then you shouldn't be mad at the flags because the flags are designed to counter these things. It's not that it's broken it's that it is decentralized, and self-governance is an important role. Flags are not a bad thing. Why is someone upset that they'll make 10 grand a day instead of 30 grand
Flags are a bad thing if they are abused, which they are clearly being abused. Steem isn't perfect, it can be improved.
I can't help but think that no matter what anyone tells you, you'll always think haejin is worth more than 30 grand a day for his analysis and you feel that the steemit rewards pool is where that payment should come from.
sigh
It doesn't matter to me that much because I believe these things will get solved over time. and they will.
Have you seen systems like randowhale? buildawhale? The massive botting community?
I think other problems need to be fixed before we go on a massive witch hunt over one dude who is creating good content. Haejin will always make good money because he is producing good content. He is working within the bounds of the system.
sigh
Also you missed the fact if the if overall reward pool is increased that his revenue would increase because it is a percent of the pool, not a specific value of it.
Posts limits ehh? Brilliant! You have been deemed to have reached your limit of comments, Good Night!
Wonderful shit post, I was wondering why it just oozed personality, decided to check out your blog, it doesn't look like you've ever had an original thought in your body.
Have a good life, and have fun on steemit.
