@ned - I am still undecided on how I feel about this feature. I keep seeing pros and cons, depending on how user's alter their behavior once the change is implemented. Right now, the biggest argument against it seems to be this. Do you have a good response?
While users can effectively still vote on 40 posts like they do today by reducing the voting power they spend on each vote - what is stopping the average 'heavyweight' voter from just finding the 4 posts that they think will have the best chance of curation rewards for the day, voting on those, and being done? Doesn't the new system encourage users to vote on less content?
Thats what i think. some voters may vote and curate less, and the problem we have is not enough voters and curators and too many posters trying to appease whales. we need a system with people having far more votes with less weight so theres more distribution to more users and less ridiculous amounts to single posts. this new idea may be trying to do that but because there is a choice then some people will choose to vote less. and what about users who when curating can only give a small reward like myself? my voting only gives 1cent. does that mean i only give 1 cent to 5 people now? all seems a bit too complex to solve the issue
