I would like to suggest that this be changed to where the automatic SPS drops stop immediately upon implementation of the ability to claim land tokens for land NFTs.
No need to vote on it later in my opinion.

Sounds like a plan
why would claiming land be the stopping point? why not when land is actually functional from a gameplay perspective?
I'm thinking at the point people start claiming lands and discovering rarity and such, there will be enough hype around it all so that the removal of the SPS will not really be noticed.
Also it would be the first major step toward land implementation and so it would make sense to stop the distribution because it's kind of a "thank you for holding through all the delays," which won't be needed once the delays are done.
Some things to consider here are that the claiming of lands is by far the easier part and we hope to have that live by the end of this year or early next year at the latest at this point (it is being actively worked on right now).
Whereas the next phase where land can be used to harvest resources and build buildings and all of that - which is where players would be able to earn SPS through working on land - will probably still be a bit further off.
So our thinking was that SPS rewards would be given out to land holders until they could start earning SPS through actually using the land in the game. That's why it is written in this way in the proposal.
If enough stakeholders want that changed here then we can change it, but I don't think I've heard that request from anyone else thus far. Additionally, keep in mind that when land is claimable, if the community feels like the SPS rewards should stop, they can always propose and vote for it at that time (or any other time). Nothing here is set in stone.
If a date for SPS airdrops to stop is set in stone it would give speculators a trading opportunity. What we want to incentivize is long term holders.
I am voting yes in its current form with no changes.
This!
Program the automatic stop of SPS rewards just for plots, which will then resume once land is active and only be paid to land that is activated / utilized per the original plan.
I have 150 land myself, and I completely agree with this suggestion (or at least to stop it once land begins to pay out anything). We don't want to sabotage the land plans from the devs!
