(changelog) giving a cosmetic award now grants the recipient 10% of its cost

People aren’t using cosmetic awards nearly as much as I’d like them to so now we’re doing this.

Cosmetic awards are things like fireflies, wholesome, stripper cake, glowie, etc.

Go forth and break threads.

It does, so as not to disincentivize controversialposting same as why a downvote also gives the same money as an upvote.

I’ve been trying to get rid of holes since before they were even implemented.

Who even wanted holes then? I thought you were the main proponent for them tbh.

Jump in the discussion.

This isn’t at all what holes were supposed to be. Holes were meant to be secondary feeds, admin-created, after we achieved critical mass of some specific theme or topic taking up too much of the main feed. It’s then a subforum, accessible via a graphic or dropdown from tbr mainpage, and via subdomain.

The other use for holes would be a more involved version wherein we rehome other communities under our umbrella. Take stupidpol, for example - in the original hole concept, it would be stupidpol.rdrama.net and it would have its own admins, its own graphics, its own unique functionality, awards, whatever. You’d also be able to use your rDrama account and currency there, and, likewise, stupidpollers would be able to use their accounts on the regular site. You could even add stupidpol threads to your main feeds if you’d like. Stupidpol jannies would have more or less complete autonomy over their hole, though. A site-within-a-site.

What we have here is a useless system that just adds what is essentially a flair to the posts within it and none of it serves any purpose aside from minimizing posts’ visibility and the userbase is r-slurred and doesn’t yet get that.

I think the main draw of holes is it lets people be jannies, which is a power trip for some people.

Can you imagine something so disgusting as wanting to be a jannie? Good thing there's nobody like that here.

Minimizing my posts' visibility is what I want, though. I want to keep my shit to the fellow r-slurs who also share my niche interests without clogging the main feed for those who don't.

So basically was deuxrama is/was?

Tbh I dont really think we need holes with the userbase as we have it yet, there just arent that many posts that spam of any kind is too annoying to scroll through. As you said, holes dont really serve a purpose except limiting visibility, and I think most stuff that gets posted to holes would have been posted to the main feed if holes didnt exist anyway (eg the slackernews hole), so the only new content holes might bring to the platform is the occasional anime picture or furry porn art.

I think the [community].rdrama.net idea is the best idea for holes, though of course it would depend on how many people would visit these communities.

As it is now I personally dont think Id ever actually use holes apart from the comment sections, cause why would I willingly miss out on those sweet updooterinos?

You know, I really have enough of you and your habit of taking a comment and making it about you. Noone here was talking to you. I was having a conversation, very civil and calm, but for some reason you come in, see my reply and somehow think it applies to you. It is incredibly rude and disrespectful. Maybe you could learn to hold yourself back and let people have conversations without barging in unasked.

If you wanted people to use cosmetic awards more, maybe you shouldn't have made them so goddarn hard to earn. Cosmetics are supposed to be fun, not another thing on our never-ending to-do list. This just feels like another way for you to control us and tell us what to do.

You should make another layer of systems, like alignment points, where we get good bussy points for doing good things (fire flies or whatever) and bad bussy points for bad things (flies), or better yet, make it multiple alignment not just good and evil, and you get special rewards for alignment, and could ultimately trade alignment points for dramacoin. Then everyone could argue about what actions should yield what alignment or just complain about the alignment system - then holes could be aligned too. Then start adding stuff to the houses, like house points and house reputation or rank - like based on how much you post in your house hole. Then there will be like 5 different currencies and then you start adding resources, like lumber and grain, and hole conquest points.

Then we can all just kill ourselves.

People aren’t using cosmetic awards nearly as much

Because the best way to get the DC for it is not by posting, but through bs like gambling and having all your rewards refunded for tens of thousands of DC. I've spent 90k+ DC, virtually all of it came from gambling and refunded awards after events. Takes weeks to grind a few thousand DC by comparison unless you post 24/7.
