RE: dMania: 2017 Statistics

in #dmania7 years ago (edited)

Nice analysis.
For 2018 I don't want to see myself at the top authors on dMania anymore.
You guys will definitely receive more rewards in 2018.
Go fun(d) yourself 😁

Sort:  

I hope that as a dMania's founder you'll have a lot of support from the community. And may be some day dMania will crash 9GAG ;)

I entered 9gag.com once. Once.

The problem that is bugging me is that very few people get the lionshare of the rewards, I wish there were multiple tiers of bot upvote strength because as it stands now if a whale upvotes your post you have a strong chance that the bot will upvote you as well; this way most people will get absolutely nothing which is a shame.

I can't give everyone upvotes from the bot. That would only encourage spamming. I thought about giving smaller upvotes to some people, but for that posts have to get more upvotes and rewards in general. Otherwise I can't make a distinction between a good post and a very good post.

It will probably always be that a lot of posts don't receive an upvote from the bot. The bot can't give upvotes to posts with $0.01 rewards and 1 upvote. The bot doesn't know it the post is good or bad. Only if other people upvote a post does the bot know the community likes a post. Otherwise the bot would upvote shitposts nonstop.

I'm not saying everybody should get an upvote. But an 100% upvote from the bot is a lot and only a handful of people get to enjoy that. All I'm saying is that more people should get rewarded with a smaller upvote. Otherwise people will boost their meme using booster for example to increase their chance of getting an vote from the dMania bot, and I don't think that's fair.

The bot upvotes with 40% atm. Thats 24 upvotes a day, 168 upvotes a week.
Thats's quite a lot and I think it's fine for now.
For new users with no followers it is hard to get upvotes and rewards. That's why I still allow upvote bots. They won't give u guaranteed upvotes, just a higher chance.

I see, it is still really hard for new users though, even with upvote bots.
And even at 40%, 24 upvotes a day seem a bit too little especially at the rate dMania is growing. Maybe a max of 1 upvote per week or month will increase the chances of more people getting upvotes
