RE: Self-voting user list since HF19

in #statistics7 years ago (edited)
Why should we kowtow to a warped sense of fictional internet morality?

Who says it was about moral? It is obvious that people will do what the system allows, so the system is to blame and not the people. Why to 'blame'? Because in my opinion the platform (and the value of Steem) won't benefit from excessive self-voting in the long run. HF 19 makes self-voting more beneficial which in my eyes doesn't contribute to a positive development of Steemit. People simply can write ten low quality articles every day now and upvote them themselves. There will be less motivation to write high quality articles and animate other members to upvote them and to communicate with each other. It will be kind of a dead platform which is less attractive for new users and potential investors.
