RE: Inactive and outdated Witnesses

in #witness-category5 years ago

I guess it’s related to the fact that witness votes don’t expire either, so inactive witnesses are still receiving votes and hence should stay in the list.

There have been suggestions to expire witness votes or at least to witnesses that have been inactive for a long period of time (years).

Hmm, yes maybe a revamp on how the witness system operates would be a good thing in terms of voting mechanics.

Say your witness vote is active for 6 months then you need to renew the vote or it stops? Perhaps a notification can be created where the bell is at the top. I dunno, it could be a way to keep interest and engagement about what witnesses do

Can be dangerous. Instead of it stops, the notification is safer. Or even reduce your RC to limit activities until you vote for witnesses.

Yes something needs to be put in place to increase the awareness and use of witness votes. I like the RC idea and notifications, even if it's just a wallet memo or reminder comment on a post (without it getting spammy).
