RE: Thirteenth Week as a Steem Representative - CW 48
Thank you for your feedback with the Make Noise tool, it is really incredible to read your opinions and they undoubtedly give me a clear vision of the things I should work on to improve the results.
Posts are awarded 2 points and comments 1 point. As long as I only comment and do not publish my own post, I will not appear in the list. You only qualify for this with at least one post of your own. Even if I only score more points for comments than very regular posters, I'm still left out of the ranking. I think that's a shame because there are quite a few users who interact more than they post themselves: they are what makes our platform so special! They should actually be especially recognised...
Well, this measure was applied to clean up the ranking a little because there are too many accounts that only comment on repetitive things but do not publish anything, having to include all of them on the blacklist is a really tedious and complicated task. In the same way, there are users who make 800 posts a week but do not comment once. Considering that we want to see people who generally participate in the Steemit Engagement Challenge or the communities supported by Steemitblog, a post and a comment is something that anyone can easily reach and saves hours and hours of reviewing the data.
It is important to mention that if you search for your name in the search bar you will appear even if you do not have posts, the filter only applies to the initial ranking.
When recording posts within a Community (or a category), unfortunately muted posts there are also counted. Although these are definitely activities in some form, they are undesirable because rules have been broken. Perhaps an additional condition could be added to help avoid this...?
Really grateful for this comment, in fact I have been thinking about adding this reduction mechanism because if someone edits a post to delete it, it is also registered. I’ll see if there’s any way to detect when a post is silenced as well.
As you probably noticed , there is a blacklist that I can control manually, if you see someone doing useless comments you can always report with me!
If you have other suggestions don’t hesitate to let me know,
