Degen

People are suddenly acting irrational about tipping and @mcdegen, misjudging its benefits due to farmers. Here are some key points to consider:

1. Is the degen tipping system, solely based on Open Rank, really better? If high daily tippers never need to buy $degen and recipients just sell, who is actually buying $degen?

2. What about the L3 chain? Will Degen abandon it after this drama? Mint Club and @mcdegen have played a key role in L3, locking in significant value. Without this, L3 may struggle to sustain itself.

3. Spammers and abusers will always exist. They often outsmart the system, so instead of eliminating them at the cost of good users, the system should make their actions beneficial. The discussion should focus on this rather than attacking @mcdegen users.

there's something wrong with the comms, because it's only now that i realize there's a group of people that are convinced the allowance is theirs to take (and that they're somehow different from farmers)

we should probably adjust degen's mission to "reward quality content creators OR yourself"

(ok, i get that locking implies interest, but then let's give it to everyone pro rata)

here's a "shocking" revelation: if the only way the L3 works is if someone gives you free money to play with it, then there's no point in having it

(but i agree openrank is not the way to go)

There needs to be a clear definition of a farmer. At what point does tipping become farming and who decides that. Is there fairness when we move the line just far enough so that certain people are not considered farmers?

Using a spam label is not a good way to catch farmers. As you’ve seen, you can be not spammy and still farm.

i don't think it can be clearly defined, it's one of those "i know it when i see it" kind of situations.

of course, some actions are more obviously farmer-like than others, but the situation with mcdegen clearly shows the consensus is not easy to achieve.
