Steemit Reference Program?
I've noticed a lot of projects in crypto use reference links as a way to incentivize growing the community for it's users. I'm wondering how you all feel about that and if you think it would be helpful to the Steemit platform or is it something that we should try to keep away from our community?
Need to try
I find reference programs to be scammy, so I'm glad that steemit does not use one. However that's just my personal opinion.
It is a callous opinion to hold I feel. I understand how a reference program can be a scam but if it is detailed that the incentive only comes from their referee actually contributing and engaging the community I don't really understand how it is a scam..
Moreover, my point is that I don't think completely ignoring a potential great community builder due to a few people being able to do a little research is wasteful... Just my personal opinion!
Yes definitely. I'm surprised to see I couldn't find one.
As long as it's built on rewarding people who ACTUALLY contribute to the platform, and thus unable to game or detract from user experiences, I think this is a vital tool.
