Thanks for the mention.
Yes, I fear that such a platform can lead to a lot of unnecessary spam... but posting on the comments? I don't think it's the way to proceed as well. That would be unfair. Freedom should be the main thing in this platform...
Maybe we should simply allow the community to deal with those posts as they see fit. We already have tools like downvotes, limits to maximum rewards per post, declining payouts...
... and I'm sure it would be simple enough to change Hive Vote to ignore such posts... (@mahdiyari, @steemauto, is this possible?)
Thanks for taking in consideration my concerns.
I just realized that @nathansenn is right.. the max_payout route won't work, at least as it is now:
We are being told to fall in line with a political system when a fix at the blockchain level would fix this once and for all.. with the max_payout code as it is now, the solution mentioned by @holger08 would NOT work.
Hopefully the Community and stakeholders will come together to solve this once and for all, so that other DAPPs like ours can start building on $HIVE.
Yeah, and in the end, @nathansenn thinks it wouldn't even solve the problem since bots would be created to also upvote comments if our DAPP became successful enough.
Yeah, mamximum rewards per post would probably help a lot.. I am glad you are in favor of using that.
I contacted @mahdiyari via Discord and he was against it. Maybe he will change his mind though.
You're welcome.. we are here to create value, not damage the value that is already here.
