Disliking the idea that questions born from curiosity can be interpreted as “engagement farming”.

Feeling it can tip communities or societies into different paths.

engagement farming via questions is totally ok

We’ve been through the “engagement farming” debate before when the network was small and the only incentive for asking questions was to get on the highlight tab. 

Now that financial incentives like Moxie exist:

What do you think?

If a question is thoughtful and adds value to the conversation for either the OP or other participants, does it matter if it was incentivized financially or not?

I lean towards "no", but my bar for adding value is pretty high. 

Even in this thread, a reply or like from you is worth something, but I could never move myself to engage simply for the financial incentive. I care about my time and life too much. But that's me.

In all seriousness, it's a bit hard if you squint, but still distinguishable between value-adding engagement and value-extracting engagement.

The roughest thing I've seen with the new system is founder time being wasted by meaningless requests for clarification.

Thank you for the 2k moxie and in return please have my 5 moxie (it's the best I can do!)
