Complete Staking Revamp

[sickread23]

i agree with some of this but also disagree with some. obv if a person is asking or applying for a stake they are probably broke. they shouldnt have to put up points as insurance. they most likely wont have the points. staking is a money making venture and has risks. obv the staker is taking all the risks and they need to be careful on whom they choose to stake. just doenst seem like a very good idea to make them put up points to be staked.

That obviously makes a lot of sense. I do like the idea as a whole though.

It's a sort of insurance program, however, we could just do it as "buyer beware" as well. If you want a stake.. Then its up to you to convince others to stake you.. Whether that be by reputation, long standing member, ITM % etc..


Thoughts on getting rid of the insurance?

Not totally true with the person being broke asking for a stake, some do it for BR management

ok some may do for br management but what i wrote is also true

10 points regardless to apply to reduce spam. Maybe it would be the backer's decision on how much to charge as collateral.

10 pts is freakin 2 posts so i say just leave that, it will boost promotions too! There should be a link to player stats if possible too

Are you referring to the 10 points just to post a stake or the insurance of $5.00 stake = 500 points you must put up (Which you will get back)

if we want to offer some sort of insurance then maybe it should be something like to gain access to staking forum you put up a non refundable 5k points or something. 10$ basically and you get access but if you fuck a staker 1 you lose the 5k points. 2 you lose access to stakers forum forever. and 3 you get banned from site. that should defer most from screwing someone over and we have a nice pot to pay back the stakers with.
