No, seriously, these incentives are the kind of thing that encourage comments besides upvotes. It actually serves as one of the solutions to the curation rewards issue. I recently posted an article Entitlement vs Entitlement
on the importance of commenting in response to the discouragement resulting from low rewards.This is fantastic, @russellstockley ! It's the best addiction I've ever heard of hehe
I argued that content is not a matter of discussion in a political system, and since it's harder to change the system, we can look for ways around it, like giving recognizing the value of content by providing feedback to authors and be rewarded for doing so, not only through upvotes in comments but also to incentives such as what you are providing.
So thank you for doing this.
Your addition definitely pays out ;)
I think you raise some very good points that people need to be reminded ofThanks for your feedbak @lacrucita - I just read your article and will respond on the article,
The more encourage ment that can be given to people to curtate and comment the better.
With some of my posts I try to get people to give god engaged comment rather than just the one liners, Great Post, Good stuff, etc etc
I like to think that my posts engage people to engage
I couldn't agree more :)
