I see no reason why anyone would stop (I repeat, only when it's necessary). It's a win - win -win for everyone

It can turn you off when a whale goes back and wipes every post and comment from your account for the past 7 days. Especially if you are a newer user that doesn't earn much any way.

I am sure whales will use their downvotes wisely, the very same way they do since yesterday and won't bother go after little guys...

This time feels different...at least I hope I am right.

Niceee. I hope this isn't just a hype...and people will continue to do so wherever is needed of course.

There are cases that bid bot promotion is a good way for people to expose their talents/efforts....but they are rare. Feels like a breeze of hope surrounds us again...

EDIT: FFS...my vote at 15% for a comment is only 1 cent. Looks like the new curve won't encourage people to vote the comments

Noticed the low commentvalue as well. Gonna adjust a bit also and do some more on the postvote.
