For one i think @randowhale or services that are riskier or on the gamble side is a better form when it comes to the game aspects of voting. Services that offer higher payouts (compared to the required service fee) coming from the rewards pools seems like it removes some kind of value. Not sure if im making sense here but my gut is telling me the economics of such an arrangement is kinda punishing the rest of the network since some really do offer much greater short term rewards without any risk..

I would agree....it does hurt the rest of the network.  Anytime gaming the system enables one (or many) to get a disproportionate part of the reward that means that those not gaming the system are affected.  It is one thing to upvote your own content since you still have only one vote.  However, when votes are bought then you are confronted with a situation where that person has multiplied their votes. 

And that hurts the entire system.
