Data

easiest way to build on farcaster @ neynar.com | /neynar

The problem with the Warpcast Power Badge is that many spammers have it. Here's a list of the top 100 casts with the most recasts in the last 24 hours, made by users with the Power Badge  data.hubs.neynar.com/public/dashboards/b1FfpKPs0IPEVvsopekEgCrlJK7a8CqARAeMRSvC

To create a clean list, I had to manually filter out 145 FIDs that are spamming but still have the Power Badge. You can find the list of these accounts here docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SMqs9VqucNo93k9doDJZMBtUwp4OjuzdwLjBo22MnNA

If I can identify these accounts with a reasonable amount of effort, then so can the Warpcast team. As it stands, the Power Badge is not very useful. Don’t just take my word for it, analyze the data via @neynar

I was curious who they are so I made a query:
https://dune.com/queries/3849118

Are you sure they're spammers? 
I see a few I held in high regard:
- Nikolai, the builder of the best Degen dashboard
- the Aerodrome company account
- some ppl I interacted with on FC for a long time

I reviewed each of their profiles and personally determined whether they were engaging in spam. While some people might disagree and argue that a few FIDs on this list are not spamming, I believe that only a handful of the 145 can be considered non-spam

It’s time to rise from the ashes and become great. Again.

I dont know
Just the first dune page had 50% legit casters
The are shillers or project accounts
But would not categorise them as spam

We can see why he called us spammers by his excellent follower/engagement rate. No need to talk more. I just muted him.

I followed him instead. He has a point. I tried to do the same and ended up ditching the data because not reliable and had to verify by hand as he did.
There is bots and spam acounts. Fact. By taking any metric into account it is difficult to make a reliable list.
Sometimes warpcast has glitches and does not show every cas a user did. If you were checking by gand on any of those days you will end up with incorrect assesment.
We should try to find a way to mark bots as such and leave the rest to organic growth. 
There were always court clowns, spamers and pick pocketers
Each and everyone of us can be his own judge and report or mute accounts that are too invasive.
And maybe a list such as this can help somebody.
From my point of view it was too strict and collected to many harmless accounts

True. As @samo.eth pointed out it depends on how we define spam.
I believe the system will level itself out. And true content will prevail.
In my opinion bots will be the biggest challenge

I think I interacted with most of them
And would categorise them as prolificient power users.
They manage to extract most of what projects on warpcast have to offer
Often pewpwing and farming
But i recognise a lot of true builders in there. Some successful some less

exactly my point.

but it doesn't make sense to talk about SPAM if we don't define what is SPAM. In the current case it seems to be more "I don't like it" than real data definitions...
