RE: Change the Reputation algorithm or else get rid of it - It is ridiculous as it is

[insideoutlet]

Very brave post @mirrors, the flag wars are something I try to avoid as I feel I would get stomped out in a second. Thanks for putting this suggestiion out there I think it would help with some of the issues we are having on here but not all of them as the curation trail of some of the whales, including he who shall not be named is huge so the amount of steemians upvoting would be huge which could still give them more power than necessary.

That is where the time-based factor comes in, you know,

• Putting a ceiling above/below which your reputation cannot rise/drop irrespective of how many upvotes/downvotes you get in a given period of time.
• Making sure one's reputation declines if his/her presence is not consistently appreciated.
• Varying/diminishing the extent by wich accounts raise/decrease your reputation depending on the frequency of their upvoting/downvoting....

These are just thoughts from which some concrete and specific measures can be constructed, i am hoping.

Another i did not talk up much, is making sure bot votes have no effect on the reputation.

Meanwhile i had a private conversation with some other member, who offered an alternative but interesting way modifying the REP algorithm. And we are working on something we hope to promote.....any suggestions will help
