People who have the power will always dictate the rules.
By the way why steemit don't make the rule where amount of articles that you can post is based on your rating. So new people will have to climb up the rating before being able to post more than a certain amount of articles per day. And there will be less spam.
I mean... it's not a complete restriction, just maximum of 1-3 posts per day before they get to higher rating.
@yaan I like this thought, so I up voted it to the top so others can see it too. Great IDEA!
