indeed, that is what they don't do however, they encourage and enrich vote sellers to enrich themselves more than those actually earning it
just because not much is happening on hive or market-wise doesn't mean we should make the same mistakes of the past
A lot is happening. We are collectively writing a few novels a month as a block chain, but whether any of it is worth publishing and will bring an audience is another story.
I don't understand where you're going with this
we should just let people do what they want in terms of curation? Cause if that's what the majority here start to think i'm getting the fuck out of this place
Comment was not meant in terms of curation. In terms of creative output: a lot - people are writing books, some are producing their life's body of work illustration, art, painting. 100s of people are pouring their hearts in everyday, hive is a place they find friends and comfort.
and curation is meant to reward them without asking for payment/selfish reasons in exchange
Do you remember when the ratio was different for curators / authors? Or am I imagining that? Could be tweaked again in the future? Would be a hard fork, though.
To favor authors again? Wasn't a big reason that was changed cause people would create alts to self-vote with, though?
It is a distribution problem - and alt-account self-votes still happen by proxy, I think we both are smart enough to know that - through networks of individuals - and a relationship graph will often show that - where acct 1 spends the bulk of its vp on acct 2, and its a mirror!
