I could see how some bad actors would be jump at the opportunity of farming rewards with insincere comments.
"Great post!" - now send me money.
Maybe if they get muted it doesn't happen.
@acidyo bro. If this account that you muted, will it be getting rewards from this post from commentrewarder?
I find this to be a teaching moment for me, and for my friend Tranquility & Loot.
Yes it was that type of concern but not only that really. I am still a minnow and my stake is small but I delegate and in return I receive vote support, this helps me to grow my stake quicker. However, I still want to give out some type of meaningful vote even with a very low stake such as I have.
That's why I introduced VIPS, tips as votes, which means each week I ringfence 5-10% of my post rewards and send them out as tips on posts and comments. This was another reason I decided to discontinue using @commentrewarder.
It only distributes rewards based on your own votes in that post and on the strength you're voting. So if you think someone is just hunting @cr rewards you can just not vote the comment!
So my 11% vote in this comment for instance will give you that portion of the 10% beneficiaries I'm sending to it in the post. if I end up spending a total of 110% voting mana (but calculated in rshares) on the comment section you would get 10% of the total beneficiaries sent to @cr.
perfect. @peaceandmoney you don't have to worry muh dude. If you don't upvote the spammy account, they get nothing.
Yes, and that's an important built in security feature to the service.
the other cool thing with it is that it follows authors who've used it in the last 3 days, so curators could check @commentrewarder/feed to give those authors with genuine comments and curating them well some extra curation to make up for the rewards sent to @cr
Its a great idea, I'm glad its here.
