one idea is to separate the rewards pool for posts and comments. It's not really abused through posts because it's too easy to catch and the whole community sees it. It's abused through comments. One option is to cap comments at 3% of the pool. That stops the amount of abuse accessible through there, but it also hurts actual comments. I'm not sure of a way to do this yet without unintended consequences.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Yeah, commenting is kind of how you get started on the platform. I have gotten a few $30+ comments which in turn boosted my followers when I had next to none. However, I feel like if you restrict it to posts, people will just make more posts. I don't think there are enough flags to go around.
Flag wars are destructive and best used only by the biggest set of whale balls around.
How about separating voting power between posts and comments. Everyone gets 10 (or 20 or whatever is a good number) % of their voting power to spend on comments, when it's used up it's used up. The rest is delegated to voting on posts.
I rather see the comments being worth more than 3% as we need both readers as creators to balance things out.
