I respect your occasional contributions to the community but don't be too greedy. Voters don't vote for free. They need to buy and hold LSK to vote for you. It comes at a cost in USD and huge opportunity cost. You earn a lot from your delegate. If it is considered your monthly salary, think about it. Is it too high? And think about voters who pay you

You're only looking at one method to give back to voters.  What if my Android App increases the value of Lisk?  or what would have happened to the value if network was down for longer after past bugs because gr33ndrag0n didn't have his great snapshots available to every delegate?
By voting for contributing delegates, you are getting a return on your vote by the extra value we give Lisk.

A better question is what have the pools done to earn the 10%-50% that they keep for themselves?  Would you rather I switched to a 50% pool and stopped all my contributions to Lisk?  That would be easier for me  Grin

Edit: Or better yet, I can pull a robinhood (btw, I respect liber for his strategy here Smiley ).  I can make another delegate that gives 80% if you vote for it and 110% if you vote for it and me Smiley  I'll put a cap at 50k to help smaller voters and provide a one time reimbursement to voters holding 100-2000LSK of 1LSK for their vote, so that doesn't take away from their profits.  That way you get your nice pool payments and I keep 90% for providing that delegate for you  Grin
Notable contributions to the LISK network should be rewarded by the LISK team imho. Otherwise only delegates would be interested in doing anything for LISK and we have to think about much bigger audience here.
