Reduce tipping rewards by 80%

Voting ended about 2 years agoSucceeded

Objective To address the lack of clarity regarding tipping rules and what constitutes 'tip spamming'.

The Problem In the grand scheme of things, it seems totally backwards that users should be reprimanded for tipping. However, when you introduce bonuses (with monetary value) for tipping, you introduce bad actors that try to 'game' the system.

The Solution Reduce tipping bonuses (both for sending tips and receiving tips) by 80%. With this change, we would still incentive tipping, but the bonus reward would be reduced enough so that mods would no longer need to police tip spamming. This brings clarity that many users say is currently lacking regarding tipping. The donuts that would be removed from the overall tipping bonus pool (~400k per distribution) would simply not be minted/distributed. We can address how these funds could be used in a future proposal.

Advantages: Tipping is still incentivized Helps to reduce/eliminate bad actors 'gaming the system' Clarity regarding tipping rules (No more risk of 'tip spamming') - meaning there will be no limits as to how many tips you can send/receive.
