Fixing reward delays

We have a bug where reward scores display incorrectly (even though the rewards are sent our correctly) and another bug where payouts get delayed for several hours on Tuesdays. 

Fixing both of these issues.

I paint in the sand along with my daily workout.
I am also developing an art collection called O-te-te, which transforms the PFP hands of others into motifs.
As far as O-te-te is concerned, each additional piece of artwork is cast together as a tiled group image.
I am concerned that the images of the workout, the collective artwork, may be what you call a "slop".
These pieces are not created at the push of a button. It is made over time and through trial and error.
So we don't want to be disposable just once.

We hope that consideration will be given so that spam will not be judged simply because the same image is used over and over again.

May this place be a place where artists can express themselves freely.

Your work is clearly real art. There were a few people on the leaderboard recently who casted beautiful images they stole from others is different channels. They also created a lot of new photos using AI tools very poorly and posted sometimes every 5/10 minutes. This is the behavior they want to discourage.

Deboosting Engagement Rings

We're seeing more rings of users promoting "slop" - typically generic images produced by llm or copied from other places on the internet several times a day. Will be aggressively deboosting these with algo changes and also marking such users with stronger spam labels.

I blocked them months ago when they were scamming /superrare let me find them

How about those users posting stolen art and still ranking top 10 consistently

@pichi fyi labels are updated multiple times a day, labels are only shared once a week

so it is possible the frames still show you as a 2 while you're already a 1 or 0

My mind is blown! @compez.eth and @mcilroyc this may explain why we feel crazy!!!!!

Thanks for keeping us up to date on the changes. Does this mean the spam label algorithm is running early or just every Thursday?

Yo can check my cast and reaction mate. Im real and check people who replied my cast. Most of them no2 tho

I think the spam label lowers post visibility, not sure though, but I think people with spam label 2 get more visibility, followed by label 1 then label 0 gets little to none, only visible to their followers. 
So this might be a reason

Score alway below 500 for label 1 no matter how many cast or reaction. Being active and being nice not work well cause may trigger spam bot

mfers i only have original slop not copied never duplicated never distributed 😂😆

How exactly deboosting works?? Is there any particular criteria?

Post bangers, simple as. You can check your rank in the Warpcast rewards frame

Thanks for the update. Could you share a ‘slop’ example? I don’t understand it!
