I claimed a bunch of Moxie token over the past few days – this appears to have accumulated organically as a result of my casts and interactions. I cannot tell what the mechanism is by which this occurs but it seems to be that when certain people respond to you it generates a lot of Moxie, whereas others do not. So you may have a trending and popular post but if the more powerful accounts don't engage with it there is not much Moxie generated. I think it would be more democratic and come closer to achieving organic economic viability if the mechanism were more based on engagement agnostically rather than favoring certain accounts. At least the favoritism should not be so wildly disproportionate and can allow for posts enjoyed by lowbies to generate rewards rather than building around a few power users.

I think it’s a fair representation of how social capital works. You build it up over time. Those who have built it up over time have more to distribute. Splitting everything equally is not fair and it’s like having equality for equalities sake. Now if you come in and contribute everyday and aren’t building up your value fast enough that is a valid argument. How fast or slow that happens can and should be adjusted. Slow makes it less likely to be manipulated but could have new people feeling jaded. You don’t want to cater too much to new people though because they have no skin in the game yet and could churn in a day regardless of social capital accumulation. But I’ve never bought this, “just make it equal, that’s fair.” Wouldn’t be an accurate modal of how things work in reality.

I agree with you Syed, splitting everything equally won't be fair to those who've built up their social capital over time. However, I agree with @mazmhussain in that the difference should be so wildly disproportionate. It's a good system, but it could be better.
