The reputation system already works.
This post will not get noticed.
It will further drop the price of STEEM - there is less incencive to buy it.
I predicted that straight away.
The reputation system destroyed what i liked about steem.
Critical posts will not get upvoted, because everybody fears the flag.

And, if this is a valuable post, why don't you up-vote it? Are you afraid of the flag on this one? I strongly, strongly doubt that it will happen and I will work hard to negotiate it off if it does happen.

I don't upvote because of this:
It's against my moral standards.

Interesting. And I was about to ask why -- but I think that I get it . . . .
I'm guessing that it strikes you as vote-buying. We look at it as paying for (and not profiting excessively from our request for) attention. The former we see as anti-community, the latter we see as self-centered but not selfish (the distinction being whether it is anti-community or not).

It's considered 'cheating' in this community.
A solution would be for you, to power up a second account and upvote your own 'alias'. That's accepted - Look at the cheetah bot.
And that's 'paying for attention', but within the rules.

Hit the depth limit, my apologies (but this isn't going to get rich anyways ;-).
Say what? That type of "paying for attention" is exactly what makes the rich get richer. What is the poor woman's equivalent? I'm trying to "grind" my way on to get some idea of what it takes. The only answer seems to be extreme luck or money. Effort needs to count somewhere and I think that its pretty clear that I'm putting a lot of effort into this. Will you up-vote me if I promise to keep your share (or, better yet, send it on to Mark)?

We feel that the reputation scheme is necessary for the survival of steem https://steemit.com/reputation/@august-newbie/reputation-and-the-fight-against-anti-social-behavior-not-just-bots and merely needs some small adjustments to get it functioning properly. We're not at all worried about the long term prospects of steem as long as the developers keep being so quick to respond.
