The cookie project

nameless

I'll see if I can find a forum plugin that would help.

Oh yes, please do that. Please let me know if you can figure something out. I'll check in in the morning and see where we are. Thread pollution is indeed a potential nono

haitch

@nameless Didn't find anything that really did what we're looking for, will keep looking.

However did find this, which I'll be testing: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-question-and-answer#readme

@nameless You need to start sending cookies over... my first ask mate: https://forums.burst-team.us/topic/1813/burst-lexitoshi-uk-new-pool-development-new-feature-discord-alerts/78

nameless

@gpedro , taken care of

@haitch , any progress?

nameless

btw folks, what do you think a good buyback price would be? i was thinking 50-100 burst per cookie would be reasonable. ideas?

gpedro

@nameless 100 Burst are like 0.05$ so yes looks like a good price to me xD Pricy cookies btw but they have quality due to reflect reputation ;D

gpedro

@nameless just noticed that @Propagandalf is selling 1 point of reputation (a cookie) at 200k Burst hahaha I guess that's right, reputation is everything these days xD

haitch

@nameless Not yet - there's plugins for doing likes, and leadership boards based on reputation, and up/down vote managers - but nothing that really fits the Cookie Project

nameless

@haitch , yeah...i know. tough cookie we have here :)

but i'm sure you'll figure something out.

gpedro

@haitch Maybe the Like system works if you change the button from "Like" to "Cookie" xD

haitch

@gpedro That should be doable, but would @nameless has to check every post to see if it's been cookied.

nameless

@haitch , @gpedro ... it could be done though... hear me out

we would just need someone to implement a string of code that when a ''like/upvote/cookie'' is detected, it sends a share to the person provided that they have their address in their signature. I've seen something similar a while ago (can't remember where) . Such a system would yet again prove the full versatility and power of BURST

haitch

@nameless If there is some capable of doing it, the code for the plugin is here: https://github.com/NicolasSiver/nodebb-plugin-ns-likes#readme

nameless

i'll ask arround

gpedro

@nameless let me call for backups and see if someone dib it xD
@Zeus @LithStud @Lexicon @ccminer this is something hard to accomplish?
The major problem i see is when someone is chosen to receive a cookie they have to have their address somewhere and unless they have it in the profile it could be the only flaw i can see in here from the top of my head... I'm sure its more than one string of code but i don't see any big issue since your experience with the API is not so small by now ;D

@haitch @nameless if you just setup the cookie button you can simply put it sending @nameless an email and if they have an address associated with the account here in the forum half the job is made from nameless... But that way you already end the Spamming posts in here and keep the same automation @nameless proposed (although i think this can easily be automated)! If we set up an easyer way to do the transfers is even better ...

nameless

lol, me and my stupid ideas...
but it would be cool to have it automated though...

haitch

@gpedro Good point about needing the recipients address. I guess people could put their address in one of the profile fields if they wish to be able to receive Cookies.

It would be some significant work to modify the like code - it'd need to be able to accept a wallet url and passphrase, determine the users address - if they have one - then send the cookie.

nameless

true @haitch , it would be very hard, but it can be done by the proper coder/s , and of course for a reward :)

a thing like this would make this the most fucking epic forum on the planet where you get assets as reward for your good posts. that is smart contracts for you and a middle finger to ethereum and more

and if you want to curse at somebody, please curse at @Propagandalf , because he inspired this stupid idea of mine with the cookies

haitch

@nameless I don't think it would be very hard, just more involved than I initially thought. And yes, it would make the forums epic!

nameless

200k BURST reward for the one that makes this possible!
