Gotcha. In fact I totally agree with what you just said. I didn’t mention any of those aspects because I felt that the article already tackled them. I merely just tried to pin point another positive aspect of the project that I lacked in the introduction. Or don’t you think that the way how clients don’t directly reward the content (sort of advert) creators is a revolutionary concept?:) I firmly believe that using this method, (sort of) adverts about any given topic will be much more objective (or rather objective for the first time?).
About the "metadata policy" I could have made myself clearer I guess:P. What I meant is that since we are not posting through Oracle d’s platform, our stats won’t change whatsoever. As far as I know, you’re not going to subsequently attribute the metadata (stats we have rightfully acquired) after you successfully launch the platform (this opinion is based on a discussion with ppro via discord). That is shame I think. Am I understood now? What is the reasoning behind your decision if I may ask?
Well, technically, the platform launches on Monday. Yes, some people have made posts already, but onlythrough Steemit, not via the platform as you know.
The Rankings (which i think is what you're referring to) will be automated and based on performance through the oracle-d system, and will change dynamically. With the trail we have run this last couple of weeks, the amount of time it would take to work this out manually is huge. So, whilst we may at our disgression increase the rank of a few people, we aren't going to say definitely that we will do this, because frankly it's a ton of work, and we've spent the last few weeks on 16 hour days and no life whatsoever. I hope that answers it. It's no slight on anyone whatsoever, just impractical at this stage without devoting tons of hours.
And yes, the fact that the client doesn't directly engage with or reward the writer is revolutionary. Because we will be using multiple oracles, and thresholds for review are needed to gain an upvote, alongside using third party Quality checking, this makes it a very unique, and decentralised way of doing it, and this was always the intention.
Cool well that’s pretty much what I lacked in the introduction is all I’m saying regarding point 1:).
About the point 2, if it is difficult then I see why you wouldn’t want to do it. I didn’t imagine the metadata folder to be so complicated:) Anyway it’s just an effort of producing feedback. I don’t usually just lick asses of those that pay me – call it my ninja way:D. Your decisions regarding the feedback wont alter my feelings about the project in anyway:D
