Re:  dedegen and my position on the mod squad

Dear @jacek,

In season 6, you rolled out a new system you hadn't quite properly thought through.  Last minute, you caved to the biggest whales.  You told users to lock up their precious degen and receive an allowance to do what they want with. 

So they did.  They opened up channels for "tip-for-tip" and "401k matching" (which you condoned).

You misaligned incentives with the site's most active users, and now degen is being exploited by the people you bent the knee to.

NOW, you have appointed a select group of people to clean up this mess with subjective standards and burdened us with the responsibility of deciding "what's right."

If you want to unlock people's money and change the rules, fine.  

But I won't be a part of this.

Sincerely, 
Burr

I’m actually really enjoying this season because there’s less pressure to be active 24/7 to move up the ranks. It was never realistic to maintain the pace of previous seasons. Some casters that weren’t getting allowance are now in the game, I’m happy to see that.
