Pretty positive Ted’s replies weight more on the protocol

I weirdly got more points today that most of last week, probably from a Ted reply?  Idk…feels like it’s very easy for new users to jump to the top right now.  I’ll be happy if I hit tier 7

🎩 first, but I like being part of this experiment that is Farcaster 🌶️

IMO this isn’t the kind of funnel that is gonna help uplift the community. 

It’s gonna become more segregated and the fact that I continually see the same folks in those top positions 

AND what’s gonna stop them from gaming in different ways and utilizing the tools here to stay up there, even if it’s engagement baiting from “contests” or “promising airdrops” or utilizing their network - yes weighted replies from some are still a thing for sure.

There are ways for those with this power (I totally want to be one of them) to stay on top of pushing the rest of us down. 

It really should be more of an even distribution, especially when it comes to the lower levels than having it be so top-heavy.

Yeah, it’s definitely strange with the top users thing, but honestly, I don’t think we’re the only ones who’ve noticed it. I think even if it needs a solid improvement now, I trust that the improvement will come.

I’m sorry I didn’t get this

“There are ways for those with this power (I totally want to be one of them) to stay on top of pushing the rest of us down”

Are you saying you want to be in this position while claiming users on top are pushing everyone else down? 

Would you be willing for the system to change as you are suggesting above if you were already in the top 3 - 10? 

I am very, very, very confused
