RE: Minnows are in trouble ( Yes that mean's YOU )

in #nominpayout6 years ago

the original post stated above .01, somehow people are freaking out and reading 1.00, kind of like that old game telephone. lol
its for upvotes and comment awards but still the noobs are taking this and running with their hair on fire.
hopefully many of us (including minnows) that are saying this isnt a good to support the planks and platform will be heard. ive made some suggestions and maybe someone with power will notice.

Sort:  

The post linked in the thread has the suggestion of $1.00 min payouts in it. If something even close to that passes it's going to hurt this platform. It's discouraging enough for new members as it is.

the posts are people talking, that was not what tim cliff stated, nor that that would be what is happening Now. the only thing happening Now is the over .01

I never said the min. payout was happening ... I said that it currently is a suggestion. Here is a direct quote from his article where he mentions increasing the payouts to min. $1.00.

"If we increased this threshold up to 0.10 SBD, or even 0.25 or 1.00 SBD - then posts/comments that did not receive sufficient votes to pass this threshold would receive zero payout. This would likely decrease the incentive for users to create spam."

im referencing your title and first paragraph, then comments. the ones it will hurt most are planktons as commented by someone else. hopefully, people will do further research after reading this post. the suggestion by TC is confusing enough.

Your stance is confusing. You mention Tim but then say it was my title and first paragraph you were talking about. There is nothing false in either my title or paragraph. If the suggested $1.00 max payout becomes a reality, Minnows and new members ( or planktons ) will be in trouble. I hope people do further research as well. That is one of the points of me making this topic and leaving a link to the original suggestion in it.

from the beginning of my conversation ive stayed consistent and i was commenting on someone’s comment i believe not on your post directly. then i answered your last question from your direct question that did not include the $1.00 comment i initially pointed out!
i reference the NOW not the actual discussion of the “possible” 1.00 was not and is Not happening Now. so going back to my last few comments, people are very confused already then to read its $1 can be very vexing to a plank. (if they understand this part of steemit yet)

if anyone reads the original post from TC they will hopefully get the bog picture by reading the breakdown.

Yeah, I got all of that. I'm just trying to tell people that according to the last post on the matter by steemitblog back in late December, the next hard fork is supposed to eliminate the dust threshold completely, and make some kind of downward adjustment to payouts. Don't know how that would affect Tim Cliff's thinking out loud, but he should be aware of the changes coming, unless they've been rescinded, which I can't find evidence of (but then that's par for the course.)

i was not doubting you got it, i was stating that in this post, which did not reflect the original tim cliff post. the info that is current and not the comments in the post. he was askong everyone what they thought about future increases but not the actual. did you ask tim cliff on his post he made now 3 days ago? he is responding to all reactions to his post.
