It's a good concept to fix the peg but I do have an objection to seeing them taking over the trending page for outsiders to see. Would there be a way to split them down into smaller posts to keep it off the trending page? Just something to think about as i don't think it's a good look.

This is a good suggestion. I vote late to reduce the trending effect, but I'm also going to start voting for the comments instead of the main post.

That said, as with @burnpost, Trending is the symptom, not the cause. Stakeholders are voting for these because they believe they are a better use of reward funds than much of the mediocre to crappy content. Sure there is some content that is really compelling and regularly lands above potato or burnpost on Trending, but not that much. What we really need is more of it, to attract more votes and therefore push these down, not blaming the messenger because you don't like the message.

Sure. I'm with people using their stake in any way that doesn't hurt the system. While the project itself is good for STEEM the visuals aren't and as any major company will tell you, it's all about the visuals. It all about the perception of what you are doing regardless of it being right or wrong.

I'm glad that a few people are taking a look at it and hopefully there is a better way to achieve the same outcome. Even the comments section is a good way to spread the votes and keep the main post at a reasonable level.
