RE: Is Steem built to last? is the latest HF working
I'm seeing a lot of enthusiasm for the changes. Most of the grumbling seems to be coming from people claiming their rewards have dropped. Check their posts though, and it's low-effort, low value, throwaway stuff.
It's a good thing that those rewards have dropped. It should be worth putting in the time and thought to craft a deliberate post. The EIP didn't go as far as I wanted, I'd personally love to go back to full n2; but as compromises go, I'm really glad it happened.
Some really good points and happy to see crappy posts dropping down - we want to reward those posts where people put in hours - nothing puts you of worse then doing your best work and then seeing someone cut and paste a picture from pukebook and they earn more then you..
...it normally means a series of compromises and you get where you hoped anyways...sometimes just the long way, but its still moving forward
Fingers crossed.
My biggest concern with the changes was how the downvote pool would be used, or abused, and how hard it would be to get good posts past the initial reward curve to earning. The predictions about the reward curve weren't as bad as some were saying and on the whole, the downvotes are being targeted at abusers. Admittedly, there are some throwing downvotes wherever they can, but they aren't doing much damage. I guess its not the code, it's how you choose to use it.

I think there are mostly good people here; its just that the incentives were skewed heavily toward bad behaviour. Hard to stay good when you're punished for it.
