Not to mention, who gets to decide what is quality content. Not to mention that nobody produces quality every time they blog. Sometimes people write content meant to be funny or perhaps sarcastic which lacks depth. Are they to be shoved aside because they choose not to be serious all the time? It just looks like a bunch of control freaks trying to dictate the output of the platform.
No. but then again, someone who posts a picture of a toothbrush he saw in CVS, or paraphrases the product description of an ALP product once a day shouldn't be getting consistently high rewards while people who are producing real original content get nothing or nearly nothing, just because the toothbrush guy is in curie, and therefore entitled.
Or maybe they should. But if they do, then people who actually create real, original content aren't going to stick around (and they havent been).
Its not really a question of "depth" its a question of whether content is being rewarded because its good content, or whether its cookie cutter, copy/paste content thats a mere pretext for upvoting authors that believe they are entitled to high payouts not because of their content quality, but because of their participation in some guild.
That's kind of the point I was trying to make. People who consistently post trash (like the toothbrush) shouldn't get rewarded. It seems the more thought I put into a post, the less I make. When I share a humorous anecdote, I reap the rewards.

Welcome to a glass ceiling.
If any one can explain what a 0.7% vote is all about within a 'Social Media' context, please do so because I am at a loss!@noganoo - no, you are not alone. I shall not say who - I am not that stupid - but having read through the post, which was well written and argued, then the comments ... this is just Game Theory - like you I spend a lot of time putting posts together, P1 on a Google news search. I write a post about @curie (complimentary) Daily Tribune (complimentary but with caveats). I get no replies from either. I made recommendations: let's see the most over-valued posts and let's see the value of everyone's vote if this is the transparent space it says it is.
