RE: Proposal To Effectively Eliminate Ad-Free Viewing Staking Reward
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I am against this proposal, but I will abstain from voting and let the majority decide. If you want to raise the stake to 20 to 30 million I would vote yes, as this would give an incentive to up your stake not to see ads....

I can certainly understand the objection which is why I did not want to make any changes unilaterally in this instance. I thank you for voicing your concerns with the change and I shared them to a degree. I certainly didn't want to limit anyone's interest in staking into our community.
The reason I ended up not asking for an inflation adjusted change was mainly due to my belief that the ad-free reward wasn't driving staking interest for the token for the most part. I hadn't really seen posts about users breaking that barrier and enjoying the perks of their new rankings. It seems that some users have even been still shown ads despite being past the 500,000 for some reason and I would assume didn't even realize there was this benefit to be had.
If this proposal were to not pass I would gladly revisit with a PR for a differing amount that we can look at. I just figured by eliminating it for all it would reduce disagreements on where the bar was dropped.
I have 600k sports and had indeed not noticed the absence of the ads. I do indeed not see an ad at the moment. I just didn’t realize why that was the case.
I will happily look at some ads, as that will increase the value of my stake in the long run.
If you raised it to 20 million, 98% of the tribe would still get ads. Being ad free was not the reason I acquired 60 million tokens but I do see it as a perk not to see the ads.
It could be used as a incentive to stake more sports if you don't want to see ads. But I just think that we right now need the revenue more than the incentives, but we can always change it later on. But I respect your decision
