Degen

My big issue wrt Season 12 bans...

AFAIK @laladeedah was NOT banned, which is truly inexplicable. This account made 350k+ in tips, 6th on the leaderboard, most of any "regular" profile -- they have 15 followers, averaging 0 engagement besides microsub tips all from the same user! @degen133.eth

This was the easiest 356k degen to claw back and these profiles should obviously be permanently banned. How many artists and small farmers had to be robbed to make up for this one massive extractor? Is this a VC or insider profile? I don't get it. Inexplicable is really the best word I have for it. Super discouraging.

It would be simple to ban actual bad faith users like this:
- perma-ban any FID who received over 50k in tips solely from 1 or 2 or 3 donors
- perma-ban any FIDs who only tipped 1 or 2 recipients the entire season
That is low hanging fruit to ban tipping rings and purely extractive farmers. But instead we're targeting users who tip "reciprocally" (by a largely arbitrary definition).

It would be good if we could introduce some kind of “report a farmer” feature.

It could even come with a bounty! If you report a scammer and then the degen dao or whoever reviews them agrees that extraction is taking place then the person who found them receives a reward.

I think this is a really good idea, it is more important to focus on the most obvious and biggest farmers than banning everybody.
