Clash of Steem

How I visualize the pool is as a shared wallet where (based on stake) users can direct STEEM toward something, kind of like a purchase. For the next 7 days, other owners of the wallet can negotiate and direct more toward or redirect away from the purchase and this negotiation decides how much of the contents of the shared wallet will go toward that purchase, if anything at all.

This happens often in any household, and normally, the wife negotiates better than the husband.

good explanation :)

People got very comfortable for a long time watching that reward counter under their post only move in one direction. Now that the opportunity cost for downvotes has been removed, they are in shock to see more downvotes. I don't think less downvoting as many appeal for will actually help the situation. I think time and normalization of the practice is the only remedy.

Yep. Perhaps one day there will be enough distribution that the balance makes it less extreme.

It is definitely a complex, estranged and highly dysfunctional household :)
