GN Degens, Bans Update We're applying bans as we wrap up Season 12. In Season 13, all bans will be reset, giving everyone a fresh opportunity to earn tips. At the end of each season, we'll reevaluate activity using a rule-based analysis of our choosing to weed out behavior that closely aligns with farming. To prevent gaming the system, we won't announce rules in advance but will use various techniques to monitor how tips are being distributed.

For Season 13, we’re lowering the daily allowance pool from 5M DEGEN per day to 1M DEGEN. This change aims to reduce token inflation and extend airdrop sustainability for years. Additionally, we’re removing the tip4tip rule since it hasn’t been effective at curbing farming.

Gn Jacek! I think for the artist community, the reciprocity is where folks will always get caught up - some of us only have so much to spread in tips and we are often tipping other artists for sharing their art or sharing our art out to their followers. Not everyone can keep track of this math through the month and we cannot control the tips we receive.

So just to clarify, all artists that I know that were wrongfully banned will lose their points this season?

I appreciated all your efforts to prevent farming. However, unfortunately, you also ended up banning the artist community. We, as artists, have always valued art, support each other and shared tips in a meaningful way. We buy art from friends, support each other in every possible way, and tipping is just another form of that support. This is never going to change. We are the ones who have helped bring almost all the artists from X to FC. These bans raise serious trust issues regarding the DEGEN project and your decisions. If you are unwilling to reconsider, please ensure the following: Rewrite the contract to unlock all locked DEGENs or implement a solution to release them before the next season starts. It is unfair to keep DEGENs locked without announcing the rules before the season. Please don’t play with artists—we have already endured a lot. We still believe DEGEN is one of the best things to happen on FC, and we don’t want to see it drift FARTHER away.

Jacek I lost all my tips because I was working on my art and I was a full-time artist. Shouldn't an artist be supported and support other artists? I am sad from the bottom of my heart that I saw my name on the list of banned persons today. After three years of hard work in the field of art, this deeply upset me. You should warn me to pay attention more. I didn't have time at all

I get the point, but I don't get the approach. I definitely sent over 60% of my tips to mcdegen this season But I also used that Degen to lock up more TWICE in this season too. My plan with the tips I earned - lock more degen I'll be honest and say I also used some of the tips to buy a dGen1 - obviously a consumer purchase so probably not what mcdegen was intended before but it supports my point I used an accepted and promoted system to access my Degen early in order to contribute more to the Degen eco Now I'm banned. And I'm regretful of those lock extensions.

This was very unfair. I have been one of the people who has supported the project the most in recent months. you just have to watch my casts. I hope the situation is resolved. I only supported the friends who make me still here… https://warpcast.com/alemac/0x2253d237

Please, reconsider my ban. I believed in the project. Put my money. Don't become degen in your toy. There are lives behind the project, who have put their money. Most of the time I received the tip first. I returned the same amount to my friends as a form of appreciation. This was allowed, I didn't do it more than 15 times. It's not fair! Put yourself in our situation, being banned for doing something allowed. Wouldn't you feel angry after trusting in the project? https://warpcast.com/alemac/0x2253d237

Certainly understand your frustration and your good intentions behind it all. But, for every honest person on blockchain there is a scumbag waiting to exploit the system. Filtering out the bad element while *not* punishing the honest users is the key. Changing rules at will or keeping them secret will not inspire confidence. It will drive many people away. The thieves however, will remain - looking for new loopholes.

I collected casts from folks I follow as a vibe check this afternoon > they are all shared in the comments of the quoted cast. Hope you'll take a moment to consider the feedback. Personally always thought McDegen was a lame way to use tips yet would have much preferred this was conveyed in some way in advance before the ban hammer was struck - especially since you had previously supported the mint McDegen in prior seasons/casts. Will settle with your decisions; though I think would have been better to have considered offering some sort of carrot rather than resorting to the stick as a way to award the folks who were tipping in the spirit of Degen. Specifically feel there are quite a few community members who have supported Degen through the year and may have lost their path; and I worry you'll be pushing too many folks the wrong direction with this decision, when at this time Degen needs all the allies it can get to be strong voices in the community. @cadillion https://warpcast.com/brixbounty/0x09728c02

This stinks a little, you know? Half of the degen community got banned moments before the claim and they don't even know why. Very bad decision and a bad look.

Jacek, punishing the majority for a small mistake is not the solution. You announced rules at the beginning of the season and now you say they weren't valid. He invents new ones on the last day of the session and turns his back on a large part of the community that has supported the project since the beginning. More than values, there is a clear breach of trust here. I hope that when you go to bed tonight you reflect that this path only alienates those who are truly involved in the project. Establish clear rules and those who do not comply are punished. But it's not the way we're seeing it happen. The point is, will you have a new chance in the next session. It's not about that, you're assuming that many legitimate supporters of the project are fake and that they failed to comply with something that was never stated as an impediment. The question is, more than you "giving another chance" will those who are real community builders want to continue under these conditions.

Honestly, I thought the rules were clear and straightforward. You had said that no one should tip more than 15 times to the same person, and we followed that. We didn’t use bots for tipping. But when I tip a fellow artist for the beautiful work they create, I never count how much I’ve received or how much I’ve given, and this matter is beyond our control! I believe your actions have caused distrust and disappointment within the community. I can no longer trust because I was an honest user, followed the rules, but was unaware of these hidden rules.

I think the intentions are good but the drastic execution is not. We assess the rules and then decide to lock away our degen based on those stated rules. When rules change on the fly and become retroactive, it deflates the enthusiasm of wanting to stay involved. It's ok to adjust parameters, so if the t4t rule didn't work to your satisfaction, announce changes that will go into effect for the next season. But punishing those who followed rules as stated on the official FAQ doesn't sit well. I don't tend to have conviction in a project that will vaguely assess rules that have a direct monetary impact to me.
