Content for money

Post by Tetchi »

Philosophical question: coins for content.

Well, that's the point: content in exchange for a few coins. It's not a way to make a living, but it's a way to contribute to life's various expenses.

In exchange for what kind of content? Well, content related to what one likes or does, from how a project is being developed (being able to learn more about the background of how it's done and with what), to functionality tests for what's created by those contributing coins, sharing tips and suggestions on how to do certain things, or the perspective on how to work with sprites, sounds, and coding, and of course, audiovisual content of the work created and stored there.

Of course, all this could be shared without expecting anything in return, but why not generate some coins? Greed is bad, but a few coins and at the same time sharing with like-minded people... I feel like everyone wins, and for just a few coins. But how much would be fair?

Really depends on how much "coin" you're putting into the content. Little amount are likely to be ignore (meaning, no one is going to join for it) while a bigger amount will draw their attention. The host decide what the amount is gonna be for the winner, and if 2nd place and 3rd place is going to get rewarded or not.

Its not about being greedy, its all about "protected work", and avoiding their work to be stolen by scammer ( !@#$ people that think money grows on tree by leeching on someone else work, pretending they made it themselves.) Now a day, everything is behind something rather then public, either by

  • support only.
Beside the stupid parent that can't do simple parenting on their own child, blaming website about their child being expose of 18+ material ( age restriction ID verification ) when parent control is a thing. Which is way almost everything is being private now a day~
