reply guys

binji is right and maybe i do too much yelling. but evidently the yelling is not enough to get it through to people. so it will be mass bans. i dont know what to do about degen allos. they are the only thing you people are capable of talking about. post after post of nothing else. no content at all. it blows

"post after post of nothing" is exactly why social incentives are so dangerous - they are incredibly effective for generating *volume*, but algorithms can only approximate what "good" volume really is

so, eventually people find a meta of minimum input -> max incentive reward, and the ecosystem goes sideways. (cont)

i think @tervo is suffering from an amplified version of this due to the success of /replyguys , and prob feels this is a problem with level of replyguy effort, but i think it's much moreso a systemic issue

keep fighting the good fight. very respectable. crap content, tft and bots are rampant. unfortunately that's what gets amplified and it's snowball effect. good content gets buried. one idea -- you lose points to post and need to earn it back with reactions. people may think twice. and /lp is testing tomatoes for this.
