RE: The Steemit Tragedy of The Commons
I definitely agree. Every time someone is rewarded for a garbage copy paste post, this is disingenuous to someone who spent hours on making something original, and will turn them off from the site -- leaving only garbage posters to post in a garbage bin.
Just as we speak, i realize for one more type of posts, i am personally agianst.
They are written by the author, but its things like "happy birthday to kylie minogue" or "compare the childhood pictures of ant and dec" and so on.
Once again, its just almost copied (as the information in took out from a source), and once again it makes people not wanting to post for no reward.
How do you think we can influence this?
People are doing this because they see it was rewarded highly in the past. We need to influence people, to be careful with content curation, and have whales follow in the footsteps of @smooth with manual curation to find gem posts.
Alone, we don't have much influence, but if the community shouts loud enough people will pay attention... I hope.
