You are viewing a single comment's thread:

About half a year has passed since Melinda and some active #Ecency users noticed that some other Ecency users shot up to the top of the #Ecency Engagement Leaderboards quickly even with (very) short and similar comments, and nothing still apparently changed on how Ecency engagement leaders are displayed. 🧘‍♂️🤯

Indeed. I think that it would have been better to resolve the underlying mechanism that allowed useless comments to rise to the top, rather than changing the nature of the contest. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I think that Melinda could use (better if from the Ecency dev team) a script which determines the average number of words (or characters) on the comments of the Top 10 users on the #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaderboard such that users with very low averages won't get prizes, !INSTEAD of changing the way winners are selected. 🧘‍♂️🤯🤓

In that case, I would suggest one of Melinda and Bjorn talk to the other regarding such useful script, though I think that Melinda won't simply change back how #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaders are awarded just because of certain tools. 🤯😅

Didn’t hear about that one yet indeed…
I did write some scripts to make the payouts easier, and one of them (the publicly available one ;-) ) is https://hts.botlord.eu
If you say “help her be more fair”, is there a problem there now then? I’m just not aware of it..

@tydynrain literally said that he is pretty sure that you have already been in communication with Melinda and that you are already working on a script for her. 🤯🤯

How Melinda awards the #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaderboard has changed since several months ago because some Ecency users literally post very short comments and rise to the top of the leaderboard so quickly and get the corresponding reward (at least 2 HIVE and 300 Ecency Points for landing on the Top 10 or higher). 🤓

Yes indeed, I saw the issue with the leaderboard as well… Some people started abusing it, spamming all around. Not good. Not sure if this solution is the best way to go, but it did already improve the battle to spam…

I think that given Melinda's options that time, randomly selecting winners from active #Ecency users (within the Top 50 of the Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaderboard) was what was probably the best choice then to make the awarding more fair (or more accurately, less unfair). 🧘‍♂️🤯🤓

Of that I'm pretty certain as well... The issue is mostly people trying to trick the systems. Seeing the same with some of the bots...

I have the assumption that some active users were not trying to "trick the systems" directly (the #Ecency Weekly Engagement Leaderboard in this case), but rather simply want to get known (!HOPEfully not in a negative way) by other Hive users by engaging a lot. 🧘‍♂️🤯🤓

I said that I was pretty sure that he was in communication with her (at some point) about a script to make save her time (in token distributions), not that he was working on a script to make the contest more fair. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

It reminds of the !MEME about totally useless things, such as a handle inside a cup and a door intentionally placed in the middle of a path on an open field (though the cup may be four-dimensional and the door may be a teleporter in disguise)! 🤯🤣😂

Since you have some of those !MEMEs still in your "digital jungle" (which I assume is in one of your laptops or somewhere in the "cloud"), you might have difficulty determining which meme was the one you created first. 🤯😅
