50 sats \ 10 replies \ @Scoresby 24 Jul \ parent \ on: Bot & Slop we should mute meta

@k00b has interesting thoughts about debt.

I like the idea of freebie posts appearing as "anon" -- even better if the sats zapped to such posts go to the reward pool or territory owner.

Unfortunately, pretty much the only reason freebies exist is to help a user who is not familiar with bitcoin and who doesn't have any lightning sats to get started. It might make more sense just to remove freebies altogether.

It can be even stricter: The first freebie must be paid off (by the new anon or other zappers) before the second freebie is granted.

  • Zappers that pay off other's freebie debt get a bonus from the zap side of the rewards pool.
  • Downzappers whose moderation survives 24h gets a bonus from the downzap side of the rewards pool

Some kind of inclusion of downzapping in reward ranking may be merited.

Some kind of inclusion so you can circulate your own downzap sats? I'm sure that king downzapper from these past few days would appreciate the cashback. To suppress more posts and be a more efficient oligarch.

I say make them pay.

I believe that is why we haven't included downzap in reward ranking thus far, but it means that downzapping is entirely altruistic.

In the case of the recent wave of bots, it'd be nice if there was a way to incentivize hunting them down and downzapping them.

@DarthCoin is always tagging plankers and shitcoiners with memes in their bios. It is indeed useful and fun lol.

How about we start upzapping and downzapping profiles? So downzapped profiles will need to create much better content to be able to rise on the LIT homepage.

New account costs nothing. Doesn't scale.

I don't get how is that related? Stackers are already scored, so downzaps could lower the profile score and upzaps will increase it.

Because all the bots will get negative score, create a new account, start at 0. All they do is fish for sats by accident or by trick. So all you need is some visibility. First comment on a post is the top comment for as long that it is the only one.
