Rewards pool has drained 40%. Maybe more since HF19. That's why posts have been declining in value after they peak.

How much of that is due to this self voting massive amounts of their own comments that we are seeing?
I think I see 4x as many vests going into comments as before. So by old standards 5-6% is shady comment upvotes
Yeah. I up vote most comments 1% as I want to encourage commenting. So as of HF19 that is about $0.07 - $0.09 per comment where as before that would have been $0.
Yet, these self voters who appear to be doing their own comments at 100% and rapidly is a problem I think.
I do think we may need to revisit the separate reward pools idea.
What's that. Comments gets its own pool?
Yeah for awhile they were talking about comments being a separate pool. I am pulling these numbers out of the air but say comments were 20% of the total rewards, and posts 80%. If this comment draining activity is done at least it would stop at 20% of the total reward pool.
They were actually planning on implementing this at one point and Dan Larmier brought it up, but eventually it was shot down by the community.
I'm thinking it might not stop the current problem, but it would at least limit the overall damage it can do.
