mircea_popescu: kakobrekla it's how you manage muppets, a la bitcointalk forum crowd.
mircea_popescu: nubbins`: i don't think borrowing and repaying is a particularly good way of building trust. < it's awful really, more likely to diminish the trust of the rater than to improve that of the rate'ed.
mircea_popescu: and before you make the kneejerk decision that you'd rather go where the people are, let me remind you that this is bitcoin, and that nonsense already took you to bf once, and then to havelock.
mircea_popescu: the20year1 it's all a question of who do you want to deal with. to me, forum trust means exactly zero. to the forum, wel... they don't even know whjat the wot is, they're barely discovering chan logs these days.
mircea_popescu: so what's the neobee announcement ?
mircea_popescu: nubbins` you're deluding yourself. whether there's a fee for participation or not, the defendant's risking something participating.

mircea_popescu: i think perhaps you may be optimising for a differen tproblem.

mircea_popescu: MisterE was a self-nomination thing, originally. see the article
mircea_popescu: that'll never work.
mircea_popescu: do they make 3 btc if defendant wins, and 0 if plaintiff wins ?

mircea_popescu: the loser's goes to judges and 1 btc left over.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` no dood. 2parties contribute 10 btc each. the winner gets his 10 btc back
mircea_popescu: that fat tail ended up costing a pretty penny, but hey.
mircea_popescu: i was privately underwriting the risk that judges may not get 30 cases/year

mircea_popescu: and if you recall, the 10 btc - 3x3 = 1 leftover.
mircea_popescu: iffy.
mircea_popescu: and im merely arguing that since every top job out there pays a salary + bonuses, that model is unavoidable.
mircea_popescu: nubbins` and how do you pay the 30 btc ?
mircea_popescu: such as judges no longer actually wish to judge. it becomes morel ike jury duty

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform the correct solution to the fan problem is to use fanned tubes
mircea_popescu: well you are. inasmuch the defendant passively receives X btc and is then required to return X+e, the entire thing is an extraction engine
mircea_popescu: nubbins` ...
