Problems are created unnecessarily by trying to control how people vote. Issues related to curation gaming, spam, and author reward steering will not be solved by more layers of bureaucratic control mechanisms. Increasing current voting mana limitation to 1000% and scrapping the curation timing mechanism will reduce spam and problems with curation gamification. Combined with flattening EIP reward curve to a direct ratio of SP to reward vests could eliminate most problems. But then how would the blacklist operators and spam police survive?
