It would become extremely complicated and political to police. It would also be very subjective. At what point is a comment a legitimate comment vs an attempt to game the system? Should 20 minnows who all say something like "I really like what you did. Great post!" be flagged?
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I was musing about if comments with minimum word count and upvotes of comments could be factored in as well. not simply number of comments. So maybe it wouldnt be necessary to flag things like that. Rather, for example, if someone resonded to a post about philosophy from something they copypasta from a philosophy blog they didnt write, just to make comments. (but I realize it's still complicating and much work)
Any solutions dont make sense without steemit having a direction as either blogging or short-form (or split up as both with different guidlines). Posting guidines and expectations can mean implementing other features like minimum word count replies, which right now, would be limiting.
