RE: Can Your Witness Vote Really Make a Difference? See for yourself. (Part 2)
Perhaps we need an expiry date on witness votes. So if an account hasn’t had any posts for 90 days their witness votes expire.
I'm not sure what our governance would accept as a fair and reasonable solution, however one idea that I proposed was:
Solution:
Add a ticker to the Witness votes and to the Proxy.
i.e. either a 180 day or 365 day timer (whatever the top20 witnesses/governance agree upon)
When an owner of Steem (in Steempower) votes or sets a proxy, the code changes from "0" to "1" and automatically sets off a countdown timer (ticker).
Once that timer hits 00:00:00 the "1" automatically goes back to a "0" on the witness vote/proxy.

It is definitely in our best interests to ensure this issue is taken care of sooner than later.
