Trying to think how we'll phrase it to users who use our site to delegate RC to others
- You are not simply sending the user RC (Resource credits) to do a limited number of transactions, you are giving that user a pool of RC that has the ability to regenerate each day.
- Their pool will start at 100% potential RC (according to what you delegate) and as it gets used will regenerate at a rate of roughly 20% a day.
- When you stop the delegation the total remaining RC (transactional ability) is in a sense burned however the full regeneration abilities will be back in your account immediately. (It will start regenerating RC in your own account immediately)
First draft hopefully we can make it much shorter

Can you delegate RC that is delegated to you?
No
Also something interesting is that delegating RC requires only posting auth, so I envision a service where you can "lend" your RC, you give give posting auth to that service and it would do rc delegations on your behalf. I know I would be more than happy to lend my rc to help newcomers/dapps like peakd. Realistically a few dolphins or a whale could probably power tens of thousand of users
