Telegram bot provides time-based сurrency
- yosito 5y agoThis is a very interesting concept. The bot implementation seems a little too noisy to catch on in most of my group chats, but I love the concept and I hope moderation ideas like this get tighter integration with chat apps in the future.
- Animats 5y agoNot sure. It's one of those "the solution to everything is a market" fixes. See the "The “Why your anti-spam idea won’t work” checklist.[1] [1] https://trog.qgl.org/20081217/the-why-your-anti-spam-idea-wont-work-checklist/ https://trog.qgl.org/20081217/the-why-your-anti-spam-idea-wo...
- demidko 5y agoAll @timecobot notifications disappear after a few seconds and do not clog up the general chat
- tromp 5y agoAmong cryptocurrencies, there is one based on time: Grin's emission is one Grin per second, forever. So the supply always equals the time it existed (almost 2.5 years now).
- prox 5y agoWouldn’t this just lead to endless timecoin spam if there is a heated timecoin debate / argument?
- longlongstr 5y agoGreat idea, I think.
- jazu 5y agoThis is a bot, not something provided by telegram itself.
- alephnan 5y agoYeah, OP seems to be self promoting their project with a misleading association to Telegram official
- reformat 5y agoYes, this is a bot, but the time-based currency works for all Telegram users, regardless of the chat. This is not self-promotion: Telegram bots api is open for everyone.
- Dah00n 5y agoIf it is written by the author of the bot it is per definition advertising. Might be interesting but the title is still misleading.
- Hitton 5y agoObviously mobbing and multiple accounts break this, but it's still a fun little idea. If it's invite-only group which would eliminate sock-puppeting it could be interesting experiment.
- reformat 5y agoYes, it's can be invite-only group. Also, in @timecobot the time is carried over between chats. In other words, time is an attribute of the Telegram user, not the chat user.
- Y_Y 5y agoWhy do all the people in the examples hate RMS?
- reformat 5y agoThis is just an example of how time-based currency can help resolve disputes in chat.
- voodooism 5y agoThis bot doesn't have any relations with official Telegram. This topic is kind of an advertisement that misleads people.
- alert0 5y agoThis is not an advertisement. I would never consider someone talking about a Discord bot to be talking about an official bot released from Discord. It is incredibly common for users to write bots on these platforms.
- NiceWayToDoIT 5y agoI do not see how will this help, it will create opinionated groups that are close to different views. So, each time someone expresses his view, the entire group can act against that person, which is exactly what happens today on the twitter, if you express unpopular view about let say "gender" topic, there will be entire cohort of hate tweets... It seems like many other ideas, this was well intended, but devs have not considered many negative type of misuse and exploits...
- reformat 5y agoI prefer to give people as much freedom as possible to manage their community. It would be interesting to know what will come of this. No censorship of moderators like Twitter
