<h3>Should we be able to reward posts older than 7 days?</h3>
Currently if you make a post on Steemit the community has 1 week to reward you for that post.

It does not matter if you spend 10 minutes creating the post or 10 hours.. you better hope that your followers log in and _happen_ to see it as they glance at their "feed" page , and then move on.. or you can become creative enough to find ways to get others to find your posts (Ex: Twitter, Facebook, Youtube..) during that 7 day period.

How about other posts that you may have spent a lot of time, and are still being commented on and useful to people to this day?

I don't know about anyone else, but I still have posts from a year ago that people still use and comment on!

Should there be a way for  the Steemit community to be able to still _upvote_ these older posts?

If you have been here awhile then you probably remember a time when we were paid within 24 hours, and I even think there was a brief time where we were paid within 12 hours from a post, which still had a second payout after 30 days.

Technically we all get 10 **100%** upvotes per day, and if we find value in older posts we should be able to support them.

I am sure there is more back end stuff on the blockchain that could get *cramped*, but if it was a possibilty should we be able to reward older posts if they are past the 7 day period?

Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Post - Vote - Earn :D
