RE: SteemFlagRewards Project Update: Token Distribution + SFR Upvote Bot is now LIVE! 🚩🚩🚩

in #utopian-io5 years ago

Ahoy there, @anthonyadavisii!

We have been waiting for this update for some time. I know it took a while for you to bring this online as you had to juggle between work, family, and Steem.

There are some critiques about how the distribution of tokens should work. For one, it has to be sustainable, and I see you have addressed that via limited daily pool of tokens. For another, a fine balance between delegators and downvoters. The delegations make the project possible, and the downvotes are the driving force.

The upvote function works for the most part. I do see some occasional complaints from users where the bot did not respond.

As for HF21 changes, good luck on figuring out the math and incentives. It won't be an easy task. Even current bot owners would have to figure out how to sell their votes with a different curve. We may all have to move to a rshares model.

As for dealing with abusers with large stake, it is an age-old discussion. People need to realize that you need to counter stake for stake. Without more resources, you cannot hope to disincentivize undesirable behavior.

The power of stake is that it is a renewable resource. Unlike the use of bid bots, it is impossible to cut ROI without zeroing the rewards. Unfortunately, many in the community do not seem to grasp that idea.

Anyhow, thank you for your work and time in the #antiabuse community. The landscape would be very different without your contributions.

Hey almost forgot to reply here. 😬
The Utopian comment just reminded me.

On the critiques of the distribution system, totally understand and glad we got things in a better state now. Well it seems that way but I'll keep on it.

As for complaints on the upvote bot, looks like we have addressed that as well so that's a load off my shoulders. Still have a bit of reconciliation of flags during the transition that may have been missed but that work may be tough.. Will require database and blockchain cross referencing.

On HF21, sure you saw my somewhat dramatic comment on @steemitblog's post. It is what it is. I'm not happy about it but gotta roll with the punches.

Thanks for your review!
