That upvoting old content does not reward is disturbing.
I can see past author and curator rewards that were paid out.
Upvoting such a blog indeed does not add anything.
That misguides into bringing sensational blogs that catch attention today which nobody cares for next week.

Yes, I too don't like the fact that there is this 7 day expiration date, as it would seem to encourage sensationalism just to grab attention to cash in quickly. Fortunately, I haven't actually seen too much of this behavior, but I would like to know what the reason is for the 7 day time limit. Does anyone know what its intended purpose is?
Yes it is, i hate it. It makes me stop working on my articles way way faster. I still work on them for hours though hehe.
You have good quality content. Keep it up bro.
Yeah, that's a shame. I didn't know that. I wonder if they will change it in the future. .. So , does that mean that older posts can't earn you anything?
Yea, it makes the posts much more ethereal and much more important to get hot or trending. It doesn't ready reward keeping good content on steemit.
