I will be brewing some wine soon on video  (Microbiology) I will be doing an experimental run first with: Organic Raisins Granulated Sugar Distillers Yeast Ammonium Phosphate (Yeast food) Urea (Yeast food) Amylase Enzyme Formula (Turns Starches into Sugars) 1 Gallon Jug + Fermenting Top Potassium Metabisulfite (Halts Fermentation when you want it to be done) Isinglass (To make everything solid fall to the bottom before siphoning) Then 8oz of Granulated Honey to put in when I am done and some Lemon Grass. I just want to see what happens. |

I suggest limiting the posts per user to forty per month. Also, duplicate posts will be removed.
Are there are objections to either suggestion? Should the posts per user be limited to a smaller number?
Any way of implementing diminishing returns? I support this. Do you mean the shares per user? I might support that, what happens to the extra coins? It would just be part of the algorithm. There wouldn't be extra coins. Like views or rating. |

Any way of implementing diminishing returns? I support this. Same, but only if bounties start being given for answering posts from people with questions, not just talking to each other about how great holding is. Since none of you do that (mods aside), and that is why I am here all the time. I post about Devcoin all over the internet and about how people are writing and coding and show them the bounty page. They don't just want to be told to buy and hold when they get here. Talk about your articles, your current projects, your ideas,etc. |

It also prevents learning. On my FinShaggy account I had tons of newbs thank me because I was the only one that would answer right away, while all the old schoolers bitched at me for being present too often.
So it is give and take.
You also know that ban evasion results in more bans right? I didn't evade a ban, a robot did it, not a mod. And I didn't know that I wasn't allowed to PM people telling them about writing for Devcoins. I was just trying to PM people in the noob section to teach them, and I didn't even get a chance to appeal the ban. It wouldn't let me back on the site to email a mod or anything for an appeal, so I made a new account when I moved. I no longer PM hardly at all, I am currently in a discussion with 1 person via PM and nothing more. |

40 a month is way too few. There are already too many noob questions that go unanswered for days. It prevents thread bloating. It also prevents learning. On my FinShaggy account I had tons of newbs thank me because I was the only one that would answer right away, while all the old schoolers bitched at me for being present too often. So it is give and take. You can start by stopping to repost your own posts for the purpose of bumping. I don't do it just to bump, I do it to educate. I made a list of like 100 bounty ideas, if you read that and it does not inspire some ideas of your own, then you should probably stop writing. I bring new people to Devcoin all the time, sorry if I have some stuff I'd like people to learn and try. |

Fin - you've already listed multiple suggestions. Please stop with just posting whatever comes to mind. I appreciate that you believe your approach is the best one, but when almost everybody else disagrees - within a group endeavour - surely it's time to take a step back and consider those other opinions. There was a period earlier this year when pushback against your posts grew to the extent of real animosity and the devcoin thread centred only on such attitude. It's beginning to return to that vibe so many of us would really appreciate keeping things on point. If you want to pursue some of the ideas you suggest then just do them - you're getting paid via devtome so put that compensation to good use.
Unthinkingbit - Maybe just eliminating duplicates would be a start. Not sure how/why broad interest could/should be curtailed to address a narrower problem.
None of them were 50 words. So, no this is my first suggestion |

Bounty: Brewing Dreams
Description:
Using fermentation and multiple herbal spices including "Dream Herb" aka "Cheech", create a legal alcoholic beverage that also has the ability to aid in dreaming and sleep. Not meant for sale, recipe & procedure must be open source. Beverage also must be a mixture of herbals, so as not to be a mimic homeopathic sleep aides (which usually only have one or 2 herbs), but supersede them. And remember, sleep is not the main focus, dreaming is. Lucid preferred.
Must include Dream herb
Must include at least 2 other Dream/Sleep herbs
Must be drinkable by the creator
Must induce dreaming
Must be made from Home Brew, not bought

On Monday evening when there was that little bubble btcnCNY went to over 7000CNY, which is well over $1000. Thus, in effect, it actually already has gone to $1000.
Nice. |

Today....watch the charts any second , it will happen , don't move from your computer , stay connected Don't blame me afterwards for ending in a hospital  Lol, I could see it happening today. |

And how is dog breeding "out of the DVC range" but building a rocket seems ok. lol.
Because unwanted rockets don't still need to be fed and taken out for potty They require MUCH more storage funds though. So I think it more than evens out. |

The breeding idea is dumb, no offense. People who do not professionally breed dogs (or cats) should not try to be breeders. Its a little more involved than "cross breed a few breeds a few times" and will cost MUCH MUCH more than any DVC bounty could ever pay.
How the hell do you think people become professionals? Practice makes perfect. Do you breed? Plants. I have the base genetics for a new strain of MJ. Plants are a good place to start. Plant crossbreeding and canine eugenics are two very different things. I don't mean to discourage anyone from trying science, but this country doesn't need anymore doggles that aren't getting taken care of. Dog breeding isn't a "hobby," its a full time gig. I wasn't suggesting people do it willy nilly. The goal of bounties is to help you continue forward on the project, correct? Yes, you're right, but to successfully breed a new dog takes many generations. Its not like you can just get a daschund to mate with a labrador and get a daschador out of it. You have to have a litter, choose specimens which have your feature traits, start over with other dogs of the same original breed stock and do it again, and again. You have to account for ALL of the puppies, and you can't just call it good if one litter "looks right." You've got to go back and rebreed, and let them age to see if genetic defects become apparent, etc. I know there are some very ambitious bounties on the list but I still feel the same. Dog breeding's beyond the scope of DVC bounties--we should certainly encourage science (it should be a huge focus, DEV doesn't mean writer) but encouraging reckless breeding for DVC is just bad in general. Good place to start with plants though, if you do breed a successful fourth phenotype of marijuana you should get a nice big bounty of DVC. I thought that the name of that "inbreeding for good" was crossbreeding. Maybe I am wrong. And how is dog breeding "out of the DVC range" but building a rocket seems ok. lol. |

I suggest a bounty for anyone that can synthesize any chemical through a route that has not been recorded. People discover new and easier ways to make things every day and sometimes even find papers where someone made something but only recorded the modern desired product as a byproduct.
I also suggest a bounty for photographs of important locations, buildings and natural landmarks. Like national monuments and mountain ranges.

I sent this to Unthinkingbit, but thought I would post it here as well. Because I am not sure how suggesting bounties works.
I suggest a bounty for Classification of Bacteria and other microbes. Either an entire catalog, or just a payout every time someone catalogs something we have never cataloged on devtome. Eventually we will start discovering new things.
There are 1000x Digital Microscopes on Amazon for $124.00 and you can get Amazon gift cards on Gyft.com
I also suggest bounties for educational videos. Each made, or each series of 5 or 10, and maybe a time minimum included. This way people can start getting paid in Devcoins to teach people about coding, or devcoin itself. As well as a variety of other educational aspects.
I suggest a bounty for inventions. If someone can invent ANYTHING that doesn't have a patent, they should be able to at least get a small bounty. Because even if it is a small invention and seems useless, it could end up being the key component to something larger.
I have more, but I will wait for a reply.
