RE: Reward Pool Rape: Downside of Steem Blockchain innovate nature Or Abuse of Free will?
I think limiting the number of post won't do much good. I even doubt if there's any. The things is, this platform offers us the option either to lift up or pull down someone's work. We'll just have to choose which one we'll take.
The only thing that MIGHT have impact is to remove support from bad actors, and if you catch them doing negative things make a post exposing their acts without calling them names or bad names and they'll either choose to change or perhaps more and more people will stop supporting them based upon what you reveal.
The sad thing is some people will latch onto them regardless like a ramora (leech like fish attaches to sharks) in hopes of getting nice votes from them. These hangers on could become their only subsistance, but overtime these ramora like posts gain power too due to these posts and it shifts the power towards those that don't really give a damn about the system overall as long as they personally benefit.
(whispers...the 4% don't play by our rules or ethical standards....ever..)
Sure... but ramoras latching onto them in hope of getting scraps doesn't help either. It actually gives them more power.
the ramoras can be the 4 % also- sneaky twats, they get everywhere..
That's definitely one of the main things I dislike about Steemit. I find it a bit contrived the way people only ever comment positively on posts, even with certain content that isn't original and borders on shitpost. Everyone just wants the nice vote from the big whales. You have to acknowledge the real posts that benefit the community.
I want to believe that attempting to remove the bad actors from the platform will be a way to cleanse Steemit from the raping and pillaging.
It does seem counterproductive to limit new users to 4 daily posts, but maybe it would exclude them, or anyone under a certain age or Steem reputation.
Is there a happy solution out there that doesn't penalize the new users because some asshats out there are abusing the system? I would love to think so.
