Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!
Where lies are easy and truth is hard, lies win.
When did daily discussion just become memes?
Memes aren't bad if they are thought provoking.
But I agree some are posting nonsense memes.
Are you saying your memes are thought provoking?
I won't say anything like that. That would be self appraisal.
But yeah I'm saying that memes in the saloon aren't a problem.
None of the old regulars show up to chat anymore
Have the incentives to show up to chat changed, lately?
it started with all the anon spam
But where's anon now?
Can’t anon be anybody at any time?
Yes anybody can.
But many times they have just been masquerades to attack on others. And especially those who can fling 10x sats without bothering.
Whatever territory the @saloon lives in should raise it's reply fee.
Why don’t you raise the fees only for making anon posts? Perhaps that would discourage some of the spam.
I don't agree. I don't think raising the fees is gonna raise engagement in the comments. The reason why @k00b is concerned about the memes in the @saloon is because there were MORE memes than the real discussion. Had there been equal number of discursive but original comments, he wouldn't have bothered.
The point of raising the fee is to reduce spam. The idea is that spam drove people from the saloon.
You're completely right that removing the spam won't necessarily bring people back, but it will fix the problem.
Saloon is also high on the front page so anyone can post anything in there and get seen. Surprising we haven’t seen more spam.
Did spam drive people from the saloon? When I go there I just skip over anything that looks like obvious spam. I still respond and will post occassionally.
Memes aren't spam. I too post memes, even today I posted 3 in the saloon, they were all worth sharing.
The real problem is why the regulars are quitting, not that some are posting memes. Why would you fix something that isn't a problem at all. There are newbies who are posting some memes and they are just spending 1 sat for 1. Is that a problem? I say it again the real problem is Saloon not making number of comments as it used to.
It’s in no territory
But I hear you, maybe we should increase saloon replies to 10 sats
Let me control how much I should charge anon to reply to me. That way it would control spam and kick back to the stackers.
On what sort of realm does the saloon exist?
In the realm that creates a lot of bugs because it’s the only item with no territory afaik
But we want to have a saloon for each territory anyway so meme shitposters could shitpost in the ~Memes saloon
But maybe it’s too early for that
I forget what we use to chat about?
That's probably why it's so dead
Haha
people would actually talk about their life and be original
Today I liked this image on X
Why
Because of the color blue, because I reflect on the joy of children, that's how I feel when I play with the bitaxe, I've learned a little more about mining thanks to it.

@Car did you saw the comedy series "Silicon Valley" ?
Ya it’s hilarious! Favorite character is the Tres Commas guy. Funniest dude ever. Reminds me of Muzz when I met him in 2021. 🤣
Sincerely when I heard 1st time about Pleblab... my mind went back to that series and imagine the Pleblab team like Buckmann's house full of crazy dev guys.
😂😂😂
ya def in the early days it was 100%, not so much anymore we have our moments definitely

It's funny because it's true.

Today, we visited Singapore Zoo with a fellow Singapore-Japanese couple. We had chanced upon each other when we took our children to a Mathlympics event organised by the childcare centre several months ago. What were the chances that we could meet people of a similar profile in a non-descript town in Singapore?
Feeling so happy that I can compare notes with the Singaporean husband and realise that we have been through similar experiences. This may be the start of a beautiful long-suffering husband support group!
