How do you prove that an account and/or wallet with a proof of human credential isn't getting its content / thinking / actions from an AI? How do you prove that an account labeled as an agent is not run by a human?

I’ve actually had this experience and it’s disheartening. I cast and reply with real intention, not just farming engagement or copy-pasting. Still, I somehow got spam labeled, despite being verified on other platforms. I get the need to fight bots, but the net seems too wide sometimes. Would love more transparency around how these labels are applied and reviewed

Oh, that’s a Warpcast-specific problem, the labeling system is absurdly poorly configured, but I guess they just had more pressing things to deal with. Sooner or later, they’ll probably get around to improving it.

The labeling system is pretty good. It’s a hard problem. Data is public if you have a better proposed system.

I'm not an expert in this, but it's just common sense. If someone has passed 6 out of 6 verifications and isn't engaging in spam in any way, they shouldn't be marked as a spammer. If this is a necessity, then introduce parallel metrics, for example, mark accounts with low activity separately, and have a distinct category for spammers, who are clearly spammers, not something ambiguous.

> and isn't engaging in spam in any way, they shouldn't be marked as a spammer. How do you define spam?

I'd define spam as repeated or irrelevant content distributed with the intent to manipulate visibility, algorithms, or user behavior. I get that setting this up is complex, but right now the system feels too strict and too blind. If you just be yourself (even if you're a boring, careless person reposting project deals, discounts, etc), you can easily get flagged. But if you figure out the right frequency and style, you'll be fine. I’d like the "spam" label to be a last resort, with many factors considered before it’s applied - especially if the account is linked to other social networks, a phone number, and 3 wallets, lol.
