Farcaster

My rate of casting hasn't changed much over the past couple weeks but my rank on the leaderboard is absolutely tanking

The network is thriving, love to see it 🌐 💜

We noticed that some spam accounts were getting through our spam filter, which was slightly affecting this week's ratings. Will be fixing shortly by labelling them correctly.

It’s hard not to notice: when the African community speaks up, responses are slow or nonexistent. Yet, a single complaint from others can trigger immediate, drastic action. Why the disparity v?

so Some users raised concerns about the leaderboard rankings—how things feel off, how the system might not be working as intended. And the response from v and the warpcast team? Label them as spam? i honestly don’t thinks That’s the way to go about things.

Here’s what could’ve been done instead:
– Ask the community how they feel first. (cause i don’t think any of the users have been reported as spammy but any farcaster user)
– Freeze the points of users you suspect are gaming the system—if they’re actually gaming it, cause last i checked there were no rules surrounding the warpcast leaderboard except the top 100 cast rule (correct me if i’m wrong).
– Or at the very least, send a warning to users before slapping the “spam” label on them.
We’ve talked about that before as a community—warnings first, consequences after.

These are all valid, reasonable solutions.
But instead, the chosen move was to mark people as spam—no context, no transparency.
