Your comment loudly asserts a bad idea. Maybe he thought that would be obvious.

Sort:  

I agree it was a bad idea, and I'd say the same even if I were a minnow. I disagree it should have been downvoted.

think about it ... if we didn't eliminate those accounts, but the whales were to agree with each other to stop voting at 100%, but vote at max 1% for the next 100 days ... which would have the same effect ...

what would happen?
the dolphin will get a lot more voting power!

which would actually solve the problem and there would be no more need for projects like the robinhoodwhale, because 20-30 dolphins voting for the same post would result in that post making enough money rather than just pennies, as it is now, because ... the whales are consuming way too much voting power; it's skewing the results!

I know, I said it very crue ... to get attention, (and it worked!)
but the idea behind it; no more whale votes ... that would actually solve the problem!

be it, not by actually eliminating them, but by convincing them that they have to stop skewing the result by consuming way too much voting power ...

so, what I'm actually suggestion and writing a post about right now; 100 days moratorium on the whales votes; they can still vote at 1%, just so they get to play like everybody else, but no more than 1%, because now ... the whales are skewing the results!

and thanks for upvoting my comment, I really appreciate that!

or ... it's in fact a good idea, be it poorly presented, but no matter what it is ... it's not a reason to downvote me!
