In the past two days, I have been complaining about the point system of Vader Yapping. Due to the black box nature, my account is basically in a 'ban' state. I originally thought that Virtual @virtuals_io was M attribute, and cursing a few times wouldn’t give any points.

Yesterday, @VaderResearch mentioned the issue of fixing it for the first time in the $VADER points topic on the fourth day. The community should have this kind of 'transparency' because trust is the cornerstone of community development.

From the user's perspective, the points given in the first two days were indeed a bit exaggerated. Even with a relatively high base score, the points I received were very low. As a result, I intended to change the daily topic from 'Newcomer Post' to something else in the early stages. Through the data testing over the past two days, I found that the points have shown significant positive corrections.

Below is my Yapping data for 4 days since @Vader_AI_ launched Vader Yapping points.

I have drawn the following conclusions and thoughts for everyone's Yapping reference:

1️⃣ From the Virtual Yapping data, I can see that I have three days with a score of 8415, and one day the data was good at 9277. This actually corresponds to the reward level of Yapping, which means that the final ranking of good or bad data is not determined by daily data, because my daily tweet data actually varies quite randomly. It can only indicate that my Yapping rewards are in 'a certain tier,' and the tier is ranked based on a comprehensive calculation of historical data. Users in the same tier have consistent Yapping amounts. Otherwise, my score should also vary randomly, and the probability of having three consecutive 8415s is lower than winning the lottery.

2️⃣ The above Vader Yapping points and staking technology are 10,000 $VADER, which corresponds to approximately 500 points. This means that my real points for the past four days are 700, 200, 1300, and 2000. From my own perception, there must have been a problem in the first two days; otherwise, with a reward base of 1.25 existing and continuously outputting, the probability of a decrease instead of an increase is almost zero. A positive growth should never encounter a deduction. The data from yesterday to today confirms this statement, with continuous growth. The feeling of going from 0 to 1 is the source of motivation for Keep Building. So 'perseverance' is still very important.

3️⃣ Of course, it is worth noting that @VaderResearch also mentioned that starting yesterday, VADER Yapping rewards the top 1000 users.

Assuming a real gradient hypothesis, for example, if my current real Yapping points are 2000, then under the same staking conditions, the VADER score higher than mine must be ranked higher in the VADER leaderboard, which results in points above mine.

Although I shed envious tears 😭, I still want to tell this part of users to cherish the opportunity. This means that under the current algorithm, your content needs to be of higher quality than mine. If VADER's content continues to grow in daily output, then Virtual Yapping may not be that important to you, and Vader Yapping is your path.

Additionally, it has been announced that a Yapping leaderboard will be prepared before next week. The rules will be more 'transparent,' and users can refer to the style of discussions about Virtual or VADER on the leaderboard for 'imitation learning' to make the algorithm favor you more.

I hope everyone can gain something from participating in Virtual.
