RE: Updates to Post Curation and Rewards + A Call for a Community Vote on Content Curation in the FreeCompliments Community

Agreed, despite the fact that I am fighting for them, on a personal level I also am not fond of those types of posts that offer very little content and are unoriginal. In fact, I'm hoping that my own content is reflective of the type of quality that I would prefer to contribute to the blockchain (at a minimum!). Nevertheless, I don't believe in the suppression of any type of content.

Now, when we're giving the benefit of the doubt of a valuable contribution, I think that in the case of a monetized platform, that may be a little bit generous of a presumption. I have no doubt that a lot of people who currently post here would not be doing so if not for the monetary rewards - and that's completely understandable! It is designed to have a financial incentive.

However, the realization that outstanding original work and interaction with people is what would lead to long-term success on the platform... well, that alone should be incentive to contribute quality work. And I did hope that my reward structure would help proliferate quality work. Fortunately, we seem to have a good mixture every month! Our quality posters ultimately get nice rewards, hopefully at least in proportion to their effort.
