reply on: Reputation "Stickers" for SN? \ stacker news ~meta

What prevents someone from creating a bunch of sockpuppet accounts and awarding themselves a bunch of whatever emojis they want.

What prevents someone from tipping puppets to keep their hat from blowing away?

Could show the number of awards.

Proof of puppet show

Reminded of linkedin endorsements and all the requests to endorse people

Sybil fees. These cost monies?

Maybe you need to have tipped/stacked some threshold of sats before you can give stickers

There's stuff we can do for sure

but if it doesn't cost work, money, or reputation it will be abused.

Maybe the sticker "fades" and falls off after a while. Then at least you can convert sock puppets into monthly active users lol

I like this, also bad reputations can "fade away" too with good behaviour
