RE: 100 DAYS OF STEEM : Day 9 - Gaming on Steem - a Community Challenge

in #steemit4 years ago

I want tell my opinion to the point "Encourage the existing Steemians to use the existing games more":

In my opinion Steemit should also ensure that you can do this and that it does not fail due to the lack of resource credits. It is f.e. very annoying when you lose a battle in Splinterlands and thus drop 36 rating points or even worse go out from a tournament just because you run out of resource credits.

Unfortunately, for whatever reason, Splinterlands deleted or reduced an extremely large number of delegations this month, and reassigning Steempower often does not work, allegedly because of problems with the blockchain.

In addition, Splinterlands has now divided accounts into "eligable for delegation" and "not eligable for delegation", according to which criteria I am not aware.

But I think it is strange when you sell starter packs for $ 10 and then suddenly tell the players that they also have to buy STEEM to be able to play at all. In my opinion this should be communicated properly, but this has not happened.

I mean if I already pay entry somewhere then at least the standard things (and starting a battle is the core of Splinterlands - without this the whole game makes no sense) must be free.

You could have made it transparent, f.e. by asking $ 20 instead of $ 10 for a starter pack and then $ 10 is for the starter pack and with the remaining $ 10 you can buy STEEM and add a PERMANENT delegation, so that you can play the game.

Since this was not done in my opinion, assume that the standing delegation is already included in the 10 euros for the starter package, i.e. is priced in.

The problems with ressource credits exist not only in gaming, but also if you want post at the blockchain you need this ressource credits and I can remember that when I start to post here regularly I often could not post, could not reply and also could not correct mistakes I done by writing just because I had not enough ressource credits.

Would be very nice to listen if you have any plans to solve this existing issue with ressource credits - thank you very much for your attention and an reply !

This is a business decision of Splinterlands for the delegations. You might to talk with the Splinterlands team for more information.

When Steemit sets up new accounts it delegates some Steem Power so new users can make some posts and comments straight away. Hopefully then they earn rewards to help them keep posting.

This is an area that is kept under review.

Thank you

" Hopefully then they earn rewards to help them keep posting."

I know from the very beginning of posting at steemit that sometimes it's even hard to reach the payout limit with a post if nobody know you and especially with the steem-price in the moment it's even more hard to reach this limit.

You have any idea to change this minimum limit for payouts ?
