RE: "New" Downvote Project

in #hive3 months ago

Managing downvotes through this project will really educate us and help us get more out of this tool 👍

How much should someone be paid to work on something like this?

I think this could be considered based on the type of posts and certain details related to them, such as the number of words or images used.

Sort:  

That is an interesting comp. I want to avoid paying people to downvote and really just pay them for their time.

Downvoting is super quick if there is no discussion about it. The education part is where I think the value is.

I have said in the past downvotes are used to reallocate the reward pool and are a form of communication.

I would like this to focus more on education so it will lean more heavily on the communication component of downvotes.

I understand. It's mainly about educating and having a clear idea about negative votes. And you're right, it's better to guide and teach so that the project has the desired effect 👍 I think there's a lot of work to be done, but it's worth it.

Because I did the @antiabuse1 project once I do already have some "sweat equity" in this for lack of a better term.

I think the hardest part will be finding good people to run it. I am not in a rush to find those people though. I need to work out the other details first.

I wish it was possible for there not to be a form of compensation but I do not think it is realistic based on how much back and forth usually happens with downvotes.

The important thing is not to rush these decisions. And as you refine the details, valid ideas and options for handling the issue may also arise, such as the exchange of downvotes. Perhaps don't think about how to eliminate it, but rather how to minimize it as much as possible.

For sure! I am going to do my best to avoid analysis paralysis.

I am also going to avoid making the downvote account used really big really fast because that will just be harder on the person(s) running the project.

Anything that helps those who will be managing the project is already a big step forward 💪. Even with the data you have now, you can already start doing some kind of field study and evaluate the work that will need to be implemented, at least at the beginning of the project. Maybe you already have something in place and here I am saying all this 😅
