Stinc forked out the 4 vote soft cap, decreased votes from 40 to 10, made rewards linear, and some other changes because smooth and abit had put a vote cap of 800mv on all whales.
They flagged votes that exceded this limit.
Over ~8 days my vote went from .0000something to .04 then .08 stu.
Stinc hurried up and and made things worse, presumably because it was their sock puppets raking in the pool.
And, here we are more than 2 years later.
I say we bring back proof of brain.
I'm not alone, but the abusers still have too much control.
