This is true - and once the Steem interfaces are as good as Facebook they are sure to come flocking across for 50% - but no doubt they will come quicker for 75%.

50% is still way bigger than 0%. Anyone who will pass up that chance may not be cut out for this place.

You are right holybranches - and you know what... 25% is also better than 0% - so is 15%. You know what - f@#k the authors - let's pay them 10% and us curators can keep 90% for ourselves. And if they don't want to work for their 10%... well they just weren't cut out for Steem - lazy f@#ks.

Yeah. And if they want the 90% share, they should power up and vote others. No need getting all emotional. With 50/50, you make posts to compete with 50% author rewards then go out and VOTE OTHERS to get back the other 50%. Simple vicious circle.

Truth is, you will never find a percentage that everyone is happy with anyway. I have always thought 25/75 was a reasonable split.

Gotta agree here. The more deeply into this post's comments I delve, the more I think, there may be problems, but this is not a solution to them, mathematically.

The problem is not, how to financially incentivize readers, but rather, how to attract users. I'm in comedy, and this problem shows up in our communities. So many shows are just comedians watching other comedians. You get real audiences not by bribing them, but by doing good work consistently.

Again, not sure what the solution is, but if 80% of rewards are going to small fry, I think we're on the right path.
