I had no idea RCs could be monetised. I thought it was we all had them and they replenished on their own. You're saying that RCs can be given and taken away by the big guys?
Aspects do sound more devious than "advertised". I guess only time will tell. I hope there won't be abuse on the site.
Yes they can adjust the amount of RCs we get... That's why they had to scramble to release 10x more because they miscalculated in the beginning... They definitely have plans to monetize the RCs, and as long as they let the users of the platform comment, vote, and do simple things like that, then I don't see a big issue. My only worry is them stepping over the line, like some people justified in those few days (the arguments were, this place isn't free and everyone should pay their fair share... stuff like that).
And yes I agree that time will tell and I hope as well that they are aware of this issue and don't let it ever get to that point again!
Thanks again for the comments @binkyprod, and have a wonderful day!
Oh wow! That makes a big difference knowing that.
This place IS supposed to be free, and what we PAY for our fair share is we contribute content, time, and we allow the platform to thrive by our continued involvement in it. We contribute every time we interact, because without us, the platform would be dead.
Thanks for the insightful information :)
I agree.... Without us, the platform would simple be a niche tech chat hangout. And btw, maybe they do everything right going forward, I'm hopeful and still here ;)
Here's to hoping. There's a lot of good they can still do.
