RE: Time to go on your Hive Tour
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Dont you think they are robbing the reward pool at present from the people that need it, and entered with an intro?
No, they aren't!
Posting using the #introduceyourself tag does not guarantee that your post will be upvoted and rewarded, unless there are dumb curators or misconfigured bots that blindly vote for such posts. But then the responsibility lies with the owners of those accounts, not the authors.
the HIVE TOUR can think about adding DECLINE to the introduceyourself...
I don't see the point of such a thing since we don't do any particular curation for these posts, nor do we pay special attention to people who do it multiple times. We just track if it's been done at least once.
Everyone is free to post what they want, when they want, using the tag(s) they want, and have any reward expectation for it. I see no problem with a Hive oldtimer that hasn't posted an intro post deciding to do so now. This is the case for me, for example.

Well hoodmoruto you aswell , I vote all the Introduceyourself and introduce posts
M A N U A L L Y !!!!!
My words were not aimed at you only.
I stand with my stance: it's all the curators who are deciding how the reward pool is distributed, not the authors.
I would also add that when Hive was launched, there were a number of people who felt it was time for everyone to do a new #introduceyourself post as this was technically a new community. I saw some posts by longtime users that had payouts of $40 and $50, but I don't recall anyone having an issue with that at the time, or accusing them of robbing the rewards pool. I don't see this situation being any different. That's my two cents. 😊
This will forever remain an issue as long as actions are able to happen without any layer of privacy .... our whales would fear the community if the community had a private layer to fight back ... the fact we can track votes and flags publicly means people are bullied into submission or silenced when speaking up ... rings of voting which often have nothing to do with author or content extend from the top down profiting the followers with the rest of us fighting over stupid crap like intro post rewards(which in the grand scheme of things are m00t)
Seems to me like it’s time for “curation” to evolve not to support the whales misbehaviours as no one can fight abuse without putting themselves in the place of being abused.
The lack of privacy in reward is imposing on my freedom of speech and freedom of expression as to participate in flagging abusive contributions exposes my account to retaliation.
But I guess that fear of a community driven curation system they can’t control will stop it from ever existing.
