RE: SPS Governance Proposal - Solutions to Minimize Bot Farms

in #spsproposal • 6 months ago

  • I don't agree with using CP. Matt said it's not a good metric and it's going to be removed

  • It will probably hurt card rentals because it excludes rentals from the CP requirement. I think the rental systems in SPL is one of it's strengths and we shouldn't take steps to make it less effective

  • It's a band-aid solution that doesn't solve the underlying issue. Fundamentally the problem is that large numbers of low-value accounts out-earn fewer, high-value accounts. In other words, horizontal expansion (number of accounts) is better than vertical expansion (upgrading collection).
    There's solutions to this that don't add arbitrary rules or hurt the rental market.

    Yes? Let's hear a few...

    I agree that this is the underlying reason why people bot:

    Fundamentally the problem is that large numbers of low-value accounts out-earn fewer, high-value accounts.

    I believe that one solution would be to adjust the distribution of rewards so that people with higher rating, or in higher leagues, are more rewarded. (Even more than now.)

    Owning more assets means you have more cards and have them on a higher level. This gives you more options in battles and more powerful cards, and should allow you to rise higher in rating and leagues.

      Sylar, you're making it really hard for me to even respond to your ..... anymore, so I'll just leave it.
      And next time just try a different account so your motives aren't immediately obvious.

        I brought up 3 valid concerns.

        Why would I use a different account? I have nothing to hide and have been open about what I'm doing.

        Please keep your personal feud out of this and respond to the points I brought up.

          1. someone has said something.
          2. an assertion which, based on experience in modern and calculated figures, is very unlikely to come true.
          3. you have a thousand solutions. so why are we waiting so long for them?

          we have already discussed the proposal in the discord and i think everyone has seen that you only want to protect your botfarm.

          good night sylar

          Again you're trying to make it personal instead of talking about the arguments.

          1. That someone is the CEO. And what he said makes your proposal redundant. Once CP is removed in the future, it completely negates this proposal.

          2. Why is it unlikely? It makes sense that the rental market will suffer if we add a CP requirement that excludes rentals.

            You are attacking this game with a cheating program. It's called play to earn not cheat to earn. It is a natural reaction to be disgusted and angry at a criminal trying to act like a normal person ignoring the very unethical behavior they are engaged in.
