99% of hivers DO NOT earn as much as edicted does.
But... who cares? There's a pretty lop-sided reward pool for any of the longer-time big-name users.
Is is fair for edicted to give some out for the community? Do something for others?
Dude tosses out 100% weight votes to smaller users regularly, and has always been supportive and returns comments in any interaction I've ever had with him.
It's not his fault he gets a lot of auto-votes, that's not something he can control, and honestly? Self-voting for the like 4$ feels like a non-issue to me. There's tons of big accounts that self-vote all the time and nobody says shit to them.
Do I think more folks should get better rewards? Shit yeah! I would love to see more folks getting 30-40$ posts than a lot of concentrated 100+ posts to a minor set of users, but, end of the day @edicted supports Hive and Hivians and it feels janky as fuck to mass downvote him for being recognized and rewarded with how much he comments and posts (generally) fairly high-quality content.
After all, isn't that the whole goal?
We punish success and wonder why folks don't adopt lol wtf are you whales thinking.
I have a long discussion with edicted, publicly, right here on this post. I am quite certain he doesn't agree with you.
Consider the fact. Please try to use the word 'fuck' in moderation. Its just polite.
Fair enough, I didn't read the entire thread as it's a ton of comments. If there's been an understanding made already then I'm sorry for reviving an already ended argument.
