LMFAO you have 1.3 MILLION SP, most people have under a 100. I hope you were trolling ;)

yeah, me too - curating and doing it just fine - no need to pay me for an upvote.

That is awesome @ned! Looking forward to it!

@ned but linear rewards is only a very small step in the right direction, unless i'm misunderstanding the article. It's of course still better than it is now so that's good! Anyway, the rewards are only 1 of a few other basic problems with the algorithms. They all need to be tweaked so they all work together, right now content isn't curated properly, people don't get penalized for curating improperly (upvoting bad content, downvoting good content and sheep behavior for example), the reputation system is just a popularity system and it makes very little sense to allow voting from the first second of publication without giving the curators the opportunity to read the content at their own speed.

hmm @abit  would you mind sharing your reason of flagging @ned's comment?

this is fantastic @ned . Did not know about the tokens

Thanks for the updates @ned - many are hysterical on here but fail to realise we are still in Beta mode. I myself have probed the underbelly of Steemit today in my Daily Dose, but that is the role of philosophy: to destroy our idols. Not in they way you might think, but to make us stronger in the long term so our Alpha game is never found lacking!!  ... Steady as she goes @ned ... blue skies ahead :)
