Deboosting Engagement Rings We're seeing more rings of users promoting "slop" - typically generic images produced by llm or copied from other places on the internet several times a day. Will be aggressively deboosting these with algo changes and also marking such users with stronger spam labels.

Fixing reward delays We have a bug where reward scores display incorrectly (even though the rewards are sent our correctly) and another bug where payouts get delayed for several hours on Tuesdays. Fixing both of these issues.

I paint in the sand along with my daily workout. I am also developing an art collection called O-te-te, which transforms the PFP hands of others into motifs. As far as O-te-te is concerned, each additional piece of artwork is cast together as a tiled group image. I am concerned that the images of the workout, the collective artwork, may be what you call a "slop". These pieces are not created at the push of a button. It is made over time and through trial and error. So we don't want to be disposable just once. We hope that consideration will be given so that spam will not be judged simply because the same image is used over and over again. May this place be a place where artists can express themselves freely.

It is difficult to define "slop". I am working on a project to turn everyone's PFP into my PFP character, Eggman. This is based on the story of PFPs being infected with the Eggman virus by Reaction, and their PFPs becoming Eggmanized. The latest 137th patient is this one. https://warpcast.com/eggcooker/0xe089190c The infected people are happy with it, but it may be shoddy for some viewers. In other words, would it be a “slop?” Not knowing what constitutes a “slop” is very frightening.

Wow! Great. I imagine it's hard work, but I've already seen the odd user who copies photos from the internet and they are very rewarded for it, we have to end this

Will this update apply to GIFs in the future as well? I’d like to know if using the same GIF repeatedly in replies throughout the day could be considered spammy.
