So, we are getting secret guilds, now?

How about we just use the weight responsibly?
If you don't have time to vote it yourself, how about not voting?
I mean, I use steemvoter to populate a list of favorites that I read first, so i'm not averse to bots, per se.

Instead of having all the rules favor the wealthy why don't we just raise the bottom and let the folks decide?
I'm betting that will be more popular with the folks.
When they figure out that the whales are still gaming the system, in secret this time, they are gonna leave, and the platform's reputation is going to be damaged.
Imo.

What are secret guilds? This will all be on the blockchain and transparent. It allows large accounts to distribute their voting power to more users (minnows).

Secret guilds are the curators in a current guild getting voting power from the whales on the down low?
IF the whales don't have time to engage the platform like a regular user why are we making rules that favor them to the detriment of those that get in here and make the platform?
(How about we let people build their own voting power? edit)

Perhaps, institutionalized guilds would be more accurate.
Even if we know who is voting the weight, that weight, if the 'owner' isn't available, should sit idle, imo.
Just like the little guys,...
