Yooo guys, finally decided to post about this. Many know about this exploit, and how unfair it is.
For those that don't know the details, or have never even realized it was happening..
I wanted to lay it all out and start pushing stake to do something about it.
I don't think they deserve any of our hard-earned money if this disgusting practice continues.
OK... here is the gist:
Do you know which language the majority of stake users speak primarily?
English of course. (So much so, that the rules for English chat would normally be attributed to a global chat on other websites.)
It is safe to assume then, that the most of the money coming in, is coming from the an English speaking player base.
Now, English chat has by far the most amount of concurrent chatters.
We can say 1000 give or take, even though it is almost certainly an underestimate.
I can imagine the funding for rain bot comes out of stakes overall net profit, which as we established, most of which comes from an English speaking player base.
According to a mod I am not going to name, rain bot distributes rain evenly among all the chatrooms
Problem with that is: Korean chat, for example, has 10-15 active users MAX
Which in terms of income for stake, is dust compared to the income generated from English users.
Now.. I know for a fact the top 10 rain farmers in Korean chat make upwards of 1500$ USD per player each and every single week.
It is guaranteed for them because of the amount of active users and the gate-keeping done by the people who benefit from this exploit.
Compare that to English chat where the top 10 rain farmers usually range from 200$-300$ per week, which is BY FAR the least out of all the languages.
It is the same story for other chatrooms besides Korean but Korean is a guaranteed 1500$ each per week, so it's the best example.
So, even though most of the funding (in one way or another) comes from English chatters.
It is funneled directly to a chatroom(s) where the profit made from them is negligible at best.
This is no small amount. This is a GUARANTEED 6000$ a month for each individual.
I do not know about you guys, but when I look at this after losing thousands of dollars it makes me sick to my stomach.
6000$/month-- no, let's round down 1k. Even if it was 5000$/month
That is more $ than a lot of people who play here religiously, make working a full-time 9-5 job.
Think about that for a second...
The effort you put in for a paycheck, so you can deposit, vs. the effort one of those rain farmers puts in, and where that rain comes from.
If this does not make you feel like stake is disrespecting your loyalty to a sickening degree.
I don't know what to tell you.
Personally, I do not know how QA overlooked this blatant problem with how rain bot works.
I work in QA, and when it is your job to ensure the quality of a product or system, a red flag that obvious is a lay-up.
It is the type of problem I will not even write up because I know that one of my colleagues is already on it.
So either the people who are supposed to make the website better are laughably incompetent, or stake knows what is going on, but for some reason it is in their best interest to keep it the way it is.
Please vote this up, so someone at stake who actually matters will see this and be forced to address it.
Let me know your thoughts, because calling this system unfair would be an understatement, businesses get boycotted for MUCH less.
