So the hardfork scheduled at 2016-07-26 15:00:00 UTC has occured and it brings good news for all the steemers ( except spammers)
We are targeting 4 posts in 24 hours. Your first 4 posts in 24 hours will not be penalized. After that, they weight is decreased from 100% based on your average posting frequency. Having a frequency just barely higher than 1 every 6 hours will have very little impact, while spamming will be penalized heavily. This change is aimed to increase the quality of content at the cost of quantity.
So now the influx of posts will reduce and we will concentrate more on quality rather than quantity because every poster will have only 4 posts to make an impact.
Keep on steeming Guys!
