Inflation of star prices

[split cradle]

Please can we up the prices, at least 50 or 40 stars
arguments for :

• The server grew a lot and channels are way more frequented
• Messages in #starboard are actually relevent and interesting.
• The channel becomes a second livestream chat during livestreams. It just gets filled up by messages that doesn't mean anything without context
• Getting starred will feel more rewarding and not just a "i am funny" award or "i am vedal" award

[umbral cloak]

wonder if we could quantify the inflation

[grim spire]

Probably. Someone just needs to do the work

I agree that livestream-chat stars requirement should be increased, 50 seems better than 30 (nowadays, 30 is too easy to reach)

15 stars required for the rest of the channels is enough

I like when starboard has funny messages

[vale lark]

starboard is supposed to be full of funny messages imo
its a part of server culture

[heady mirage]

idk most messages there seem relevant to me, other than the #ironmouse-canvas incident

[vale lark]

very much an outlier

theres hardly more people starring than there were previously. Like, 99% of the server doesnt talk and is here for emotes and schedule

we addressed this problem when we raised it to 30, and there hasnt been a noticible increase in starboard additions in #livestream-chat

also on the topic i originally brought up, funny quotes getting starred in #livestream-chat allows people who missed the stream still see the highlights of the stream interaction

you WANT a decent amount of things from starboard in there. It allows you to gauge things that happned without you being there.

or ppl who dont read that channel much and want to see some of the chat's reaction

[rocky salmon]

yeah tbh I wish more stuff from #livestream-chat made it to starboard, it's very nice if I miss a stream and watch the vod to see the key moments that happened there.

what if there was a separate starboard just for #livestream-chat posts? It could keep all the cool art and other important things easier to keep track of. And maybe a way to easily go to specific dates to see reactions to much older vods?

Tbh, I feel like starboard should increase to at least 40-50 for livestream chat and at least 20 for nn, and maybe lower to 10 for general network, as a way to balance things out according to their starring power. (And to those who say gn getting lowered isn’t fair, look at the attached ss’s. Putting the link to general-network in starboard yields 178 results, meanwhile putting the link to neurotic neurons yields 885 results and livestream chat yields 2,279 results)

so yea things need to be balanced definitely

I get starboard can be a way to see what ya missed in a livestream and stuff, but there’s clip channels for that, and there’s definitely a bunch of things that just shouldn’t make it to starboard that do because the numbers. Sure cool stuff makes it but then random stuff also does

[stiff mortar]

50 for livestream-chat, 20 for NN, and 15 for other channels sounds good but 50 global is just asking for the starboard to only be Livestream-chat and Vedal

[vale lark]

we accidentally experimented with 50 during a stream during the ironmouse canvas and results concluded that 50 was way too high. If it wasnt vedal it was almost NOTHING getting to starboard.

if I were to increase it I would raise it to 35-40

[hallow tree]

I find every single starboard message (except 25% of the ones from ironmouse canvas) interesting 🙏
