RE: The current linear curation curve

I could never understand the 24 hour curation penalty, the rationale and purpose behind it. It assumes people are on Hive at least every 24 hours. Some people have a real life with real jobs and real family, why should they be penalised for that? It's just mind boggling

Sort:  

Myeah I think the idea was that most posts in general get most of the attention/curation in the first day anyway but I wasn't a fan of this either, especially knowing that with my and ocd's curation we often stumble upon posts or authors late and would like to still give them a proper vote. I would've been more in favor of a 2/4/6-7 day split than 1/2/3/4/5/6/7.

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense. The day 6-7 curation penalty is definitely needed to avoid people last minute abuse voting. Ultimately it's the genuine authors that lose out because of this and that's a pity
