RE: Why is Bitcoin so important?

in LeoFinance5 years ago

Thank you. I don't use @dbuzz. Sometimes I think @hivewatchers are just bullies and don't really help. People should be able to use whatever app they choose or what they want to post. Upvotes/downvotes can decide the rewards. Blacklists are just too much, unless of course there is clear scam.

Sort:  

Well, i've not personally experienced being bullied by them, just a couple if friendly headsup's and openness to discussion. More clear agreement/rules would be better so we know what's allowed and what's not. But this should imo be decided by consensus (not by stake), in a purely democratic way.

Upvotes/downvotes by users/stakeholders is the consensus. Hivewatchers don't own this blockchain. They need to realize that they are wrong sometimes too. If not, oh well.

Yeah, but the uovotes/downvotes are weighted by HP.

What if it was simply one person 1 vote?
The HP holders could be rewarded another way for locking in

It is a stakes based protocol. The rewards pool comes from the inflation on the total Hive supply and inflation dilutes the value of Hive. That's why it makes sense that stakeholders influence the distribution of the rewards.

1 person 1 vote probably wouldn't work because it can easily be gamed/abused. One person can easily control hundreds of accounts.

Just because it is a DPOS protocol and higher HP gives higher influence, doesn't mean lower HP users don't have a say. It is a social network, and it is in stakeholders' best interest to align with the overall users/community sentiment and consensus and what is best for better user experience.

IMO, DBuzz is no different dSpam app than dlike, Share2Steem, and partiko.
Incentivizing mass trash post spam in Hive ecosystem. Users can spam up to 5 times with complete trash and get rewarded up to $1 for each trash. Mostly getting curation/upvotes from automated voting. Almost none of the votes are manual.
Just wait until more users find out about it, particularly those scams groups that exploited dlike, partiko, and many other spam apps that popped up in Steemit. Soon there will be more apps like dBuzz coming in just as it happened on Steemit.
You are clueless and oblivious about the scope of scam and abuse on the platform. I am certain that you can't investigate basic post for simple plagiarism...

lol ok. I have spent years doing thorough curation which involved identifying plagiarism, re-post, spam, etc. Although, my focus was on positive curation. And I don't mean to disregard the fact you guys have done good service. I know it is a time consuming effort.

But sometimes you go beyond doing good for the platform and for me it looks like bullying. One thing is to blacklist continuous plagiarism and abuse. Another thing claiming authority over the platform and blacklisting legitimate and respected users.

I gave you feedback, do what you want with it. From my experience you guys don't really care about what people think and just keep saying 'oh community doesn't like this'. I disagree. Let community do the upvotes/downvotes. It is not for you to decide what the rewards should be.

Obvious scam, plagiarism - sure go after it and I will thank you every time.

Apps try to implement various aspects of Hive. Some work, some don't. Again, not for you to judge.

$1 post might be trash for you, but might be something fun for others. This is decentralized platform. Let the decentralization do its magic. You wouldn't care anyway. I just don't like when ordinary users are picked on for some nonsense.

All of @dbuzz's curation with 40,000 HP purchased by our team is 100% manual done by @chrisrice.

TAG: @guiltyparties

What do you think about the core earners who earn $30 - $40 USD per post, even if it's not always competitive with posts who earn exponentially less for better or equivalent content? @logic

You are tripping over pennies while people are sometimes over earning big dollars, and sometimes almost solely for being the first to the party.

You don't need to cc me in every response, just update me on the chat.

We're working together on getting the app resilient against scammers. We can keep doing that, which benefits your team and Hive in general.
