> It's much easier to make a book sound epic, insightful and/or wonderful than it is to actually write something like that. It might take a while for the user to give up, but who cares if people only get 50-100 pages into your book before quitting if you can attract multiple times more people?
I don't see how that is any different with a per-user pot than the current system?
- kbenson 10y agoThe major difference is that it may force the current scam which seems to rely partially on getting people to download and click the last page and partially on a scammer network to do this for each other to move entirely to scamming real people to click the last page. That said, that's not a good reason in my mind, since we shouldn't be afraid of stopping abuse just because we are afraid it will shift to another area, as it's still progress. I retract that specific example (but I think the others are worth thinking about).
