Hello, me again...

I understand what you mean, and I get the logic behind the idea that an increase in the supply of authors should bring new talents who would eventually displace empty content.

But, we could also apply the logic that HIVE is currently a small sample of a much more larger population, and more people joining doesn't guarante us that we'll be flooded with quality authors and content. On the contrary, it might become harder to us to find them as the waters get denser and denser. Since currently there's no mechanism for rewards to value quality over quantity, the most likely outcome would be an influx of content and users merely seeking to obtain the maximum possible in the shortest amount of time.

That being said, I'd also like to offer my grain of salt, if post rewards were someway linked to reputation, and its calculation were based on recent performance, people would be forced to spend 'x' amount of months building their reputation before the rewards become 'juicy,' so to speak.

Something similar could apply if the RC cost to publish a post were much much higher, this would limit compulsive posting from new accounts and would require users to adapt our accounts or publishing schedules accordingly, more content need more RC, but also mean that all that contet shlould be good to keep a good grade (talking in reputation terms), so people invest (Hive in this case) to publish daily and make good content daily or post weekly which give you more time to make good content.

But hey, these are just ideas that come to me while I´m writing these paragraphs, and as I said before, it's very difficult for someone like me to make a change in such a large ecosystem.
