Warpcast

Popular channels get a lot of spam and manual moderation is hard to scale and decentralize. 

Proposal: 

- Hosts can turn on a fee in settings
- Users must pay 100 warps before they can post
- If banned, user must pay the fee again before posting
- Fees go to hosts

If you are a channel lead, would you use this?

I would not use this - primary incentive is for less activity in the channel, not necessarily higher quality activity. 

Generally not a fan of the gas model for contributing to a network (vs. ETH's gas model of *using* the network).

I'm biased, but strongly prefer a reputation-based model.

Curious what others think?

If you go the route of rep, how would you define good rep vs bad rep? 

A fee could potentially be useful especially if you can redistribute said fee back to good actors within a channel

I don’t have a bias either way but just curious how you are thinking about it

There are fairly established ways of calculating reputation on an existing platform based on contribution. 

Most models are based on peer-to-peer gradation. 

If you get moderated, you lose rep. Likes/warps/recasts increase rep.
