My 0.2 SBD:
- Self voting should be abolished.
- Upvote bots/services should be abolished.
- It should only be possible to upvote a single account max 4 times per 24 hours and/or 4 per 24 hour posting limit for people under 50 rep score.
- Upvotes on comments should have no SBD reward. Should only be SP and rep points for comments. Nobody deserves money for posting comments.
I tend to agree but it's easier said than done unfortunately. You could abolish self-voting but then you'll just get sock puppet accounts circle-jerking each other. That is "next level" abuse that is also going on and harder to detect. Same with upvote bots. Payment for upvotes can be taken off-chain and not visible so detection becomes harder. I like your idea about comment rewards. That's an interesting one that might work to some degree.
