RE: Introducing Promoted Content
Ok, so I just attempted to do a promote this post and one main issue I have is this: I want to pay the author not the shareholders. I think this is not a good thing after all, as I don't want my hard-earned SBD's burned. That is not a good feeling at all actually. Is there any way to add our SBD's to a post, in such a way that we can boost the post with our own money? That's what I'd like to see implemented.
Author gets more attention thus gets paid indirectly. You can tip author easily via transfer.
burning SBD is not a deeply gratifying experience and it doesn't tap into human desires.
perhaps a dividend on Steem Power would work better ;)
In any case, the reason we cannot just tip authors and use total tips as a ranking is because it would be abused by people tipping themselves via sock puppets.
Oh, I see. Good point, sometimes I forget about all the abusers. How would the dividend on SP work? I'd love to transfer SP to others like @thecryptofiend who are amazing commenters, big value users....
what exchange rate would be used if something like this would be implemented?
Would't something like this allow a skipping of the one week SBD to Steem standard process?
I guess not if you mark that dividend exchange for 1 week after the transaction is submitted
Also, I'm seeing the promote button when looking at standalone comment pages. Is that meant to be?

You can do exactly that. Choose "Power Up" in the wallet, then "Advanced". You can then specify who you want to power up. Be careful there is no "undo".
I think she want to transfer their SP to others which is not possible
dan, sort of on a side note, have you seen your latest breakdancing video? I had nothing to do with its production....I found it via @tuck-fheman on yogi.artist's post
If only the author recieved the SBD from promotion and not the shareholders, couldn't anyone promote their own content at no cost since they'd recieve everything they put into it?
Good question!!!
