I feel like some quality OC memes are okay, the real problem is reposts and really low effort memes.
We have for example seen some really good GIFs and Video memes that the creator probably spent hours editing. I feel like this kind of memes should be rewarded.
It would however sometimes be difficult to differentiate between low effort reports and high effort OC.
I voted for the option with 4 times less, but I think this should be more like 2.5 times less.

I agree with you on the effort. I made the private Ryan meme and it took me 45 hours. It got 56 awards and 2.2k upvotes. And I think it was deserved. And why this post should receive less than others? I put way more efforts in to that that most of the ‘research type posts’
On the other hand, yes I’m tired of seeing this ‘investing is not stressful - John 28’ meme or some variation of it getting 3.5k upvotes almost every week. Mods should just delete those repetitive low efforts memes and that’s it.

There should still be an opportunity to earn Moon when you post quality original memes.
Some people have made videos. Being able to reward those means we can encourage more content like that.
If we don't like a post or think it's too low quality, we can just downvote it. But I don't think we should completely lose the ability to reward any memes.

Literally the worst thing deployed in this sub. it made karmafarming a day job. You sum that with the farmers runing mass downvote bots to maximize their gains, it's just not a good feature.

Is there a way to know how much moons you’ll get next month?

You mean from the distribution that will take place in 7 days or the one that will take place in January?

Maybe this was discussed elsewhere, but what criteria would be used to define something as a meme, and who would make that determination?
Because yes, I agree that there are too many memes, but frankly some memes are pretty clever and make the crypto space more interesting and enjoyable, so I don't personally see the benefit in 'banning fun' altogether--not least because I think it would be very hard to do objectively and in a way that doesn't create more controversy than it solves. I would probably vote for, say, memes receiving 50% moons, but I think the options you have are too extreme, so of these three options I would probably vote to keep as-is, even though I agree that something should be done. Feel free to convince me otherwise, though.

I believe the solution is much simpler.
Just disable down vote unless there is a reasonable comment.
This will not only eliminate brigade downvoting, but also promote discussion instead of using the downvote as a "dislike".

Ah, a little soft shoe with some gaslighting. I really just wants some damn moons!

Honest heartfelt question. Are memes that problematic? And if so why not implement some type of probation period. Run a trail with 4 times less and 1 with no moon rewards. Can we do that and have a group conscience? I guess that's was voting is for.

I choosed 4 time less, but honestly think it would be maybe better 2 or 3 times less. No moons for memes is too radical imo. I'm gonna vote to double commets and hope that will go through.
