You got it. You could focus on solving the "single account abusers"; and all that would do is get the people who are intent on abuse to create multiple accounts.
that is true but them they would have to divide the amount of their steem powers as well.
I think the main problem with self-voting issue is whale which are clearing thousands a week for their votes
Lets talk about a whale that has brought $2M fiat to the platform. What is the "right" amount that that person should be ALLOWED to making from posting per week, compared to the person who brings $0 fiat to the platform and wants to grow just by blogging.
Who is going to decide what is ALLOWED?
Is that decision made by one person (a dictator), or made by a committee (communism)?
You start down a slippery slope when you let ENVY of the whales start to dictate what you think are the best policy options.
Don't be envious. Don't be greedy.
Do your own thing and be proud of what you can do. The community will reward you. If you don't trust the community to make that decision, you should leave.
I think you have misunderstood what I'm trying to said or might be I did not explained myself properly.
What I'm saying don't come from a place of jealousy for whales. They are whale for a reason! they have invested their money into this platform in order to I guess get more money! Which is their right.
Still Steemit is a platform in which the goal is generate money from content. However, a lot of great original content slips through the cracks because it cannot get enough traction when the top spots are filled with irrelevant post selfvoted by Whoever.
I realize that I don't have a strong voice in the community, because I fairly new to it. When I write sometime is because I'm interested in knowing the future of the platform and if there will be a chance for new player to reach dolphin or whale status from zero. because if the only way to make moeny on steemit is being a big player whats even the point of writting good content!
Ideally all people should make whatever the crowd thinks the content is worth, regardless of factors like author name, rewards, popularity, reputation, investment or any other irrelevant factors people could potentially base their actions on.
Certainly nobody should be treated differently because they invested heavily in STEEM. People invest in STEEM for selfish reasons (to potentially make a profit or to gain more power on the network), so there's no reason to reward them more than the revolutionary platform is already offering.
