IMHO, a one day upvote lockout is too long. Why not align with Steemit current value which is 12 hours?
@VIM-Arcange issue description is fixed. In the code there is already 12 hours: https://github.com/GolosChain/golos/commit/39da2496ac5949a9b263a9d09485c590ad321e4a#diff-95d4da2aa9bffe9044cd7d846ec6f435R269
Please stop adding new features into Release Candidate branch.

Why for the sake of god are you opening so many issues for the same topic?
The main description of this issue mentioned a 1 day lockout and has been edited to replace it with "12 hours" later, This is bad practice and doesn't help for discussion. How can one follow this with such a inconsistent management?
@primusd I think this should not be considered as a new feature has it is already implemented in the current HF. Raising the issue was a good idea.
Anyway, I agree that there should be a discussion with the community before changing it. Moreover, this is likely the intention of @afalaleev as he wrote "Here I propose we increase STEEMIT_UPVOTE_LOCKOUT ..."
Shouldn't be a proposal be discussed before implementation? To be honest, I have been surprised that my single comment was taken into consideration and implemented so fast.
Then, why moving in one direction, then heading back to another. I can only see poor management, if any!
@VIM-Arcange there was actually another discussions regarding this in telegram chats. At first, @gropox pointed about steemit initiative to increase STEEMIT_UPVOTE_LOCKOUT while they switched to 7-day window, but then witnesses asked "why this change introduced after HF features agreement?", so core finally removed it.
Because the payout time is fixed after HF17, it's possible that some people will upvote posts just before the payout time, which could be abusing. STEEMIT_UPVOTE_LOCKOUT is currently 1 minute, which means others have little chance to find that kind of abusing or downvote accordingly.
Here I propose we increase STEEMIT_UPVOTE_LOCKOUT to 12 hours or so, during that period people can still upvote and downvote, but only downvotes take effect, let the upvotes be no-op.
