which will force them to analyze trash a bit closer.
I'm not sure it will do that. To me, downvotes which we can all do right now would be much more effective if that's the end goal. Tools like this could help right now: https://steemwhales.com/clean-trending/ (Edit: looks like the URL changed. See this post for more info)
If a large SP vote on a post was comparably much higher than the current total post value, more of that vote would go to the curators instead of the author
I like this idea. It would encourage large voters to go find low value posts to vote on in order to receive higher curation rewards. It could also lead to total crap getting large votes though. Interesting to consider all the unintended consequences this might have, but at first glance, I like it.
Thanks for looking at this. Even the first option has possibilities, just needs discussion and refinement.
On the large SP votes, more of the vote could also go straight SP instead SBD, again forcing more thought, less short term incentive and more investment into the platform.
Large SP voters would not likely vote on crap since, they 1) have to share the rewards with many others, and 2) the more investment into the platform, the more concern there is with quality
