delegators won't earn any rewards for their delegations then.
The reward is seeing the rewards go to every other post that has a pending payout, no? Could it not be one of their own posts that benefits from this, a rising tide, lifting all ships, etc?
overrewarded content.
Hopefully by looking at the data, some trends can be identified to define what that might be :) Particularly with comparing apples vs apples within the same communities. ie, if someone who has "chops" goes into a community, breaks their rules, doesn't post stuff that's up to the normal quality of that community, the moderators of that community can mute that post, sure.
But the rest of the hive population shouldn't stand by someone "crashing the party" of that community (I know that rewards aren't distributed by communities, and are across the chain) - should then see that the post is rewarded ... eh, more appropriately?
It is hard to articulate.
Generally, people know if their content is shit or not. If they don't have any sense of self-awareness, It won't stop them farming rewards from it.
From my view, I just try to not generate shit content and not post shit on the chain anymore, because oh golly did I do that once upon a time. I can't dispute that, there's a blocklog that can't be modified. That's a good thing.
There's got to be some personal responsibility about "accepting" rewards, too, I guess. I see that some authors who may not really have anything to say might try for that post a day to try and get the juice from the autovoters.
That's abuse, in my mind.
True. But it is still an investment. And I often see that people want change, but not when they have to pay for it themselves.
I would delegate some of my stake for such an initiative if it is set up wel..
Some people might think they earned these auto-upvotes by investing in Hive (either financially or by spending time).
I think it would be difficult to get a lot of delegations from large stakeholders. But a lot of small delegations also adds up!
I think so too.
Maybe if I keep presenting this data, some people will start to change their ways. :)
One week is not a trend, after all. :) But a few months? That's a habit ;)
