Nice improvement @sapwood. But I believe the Rep shouldn't have been upgraded to that extent. Rep 65 is quite hard to achieve, very hard. Diligent authors might be unable to participate, but yet they don't power down and have been powering up. I don't know if you get my point. The increment should be 2 or 3, but 5 is too much. The main to note, are authors powering down?
I feel Rep shouldn't be changed from Season to Season, but SP requirements should be changed and even by large difference from previous season, then we will notice progressive change. Lots and lots of Advanced authors that participated last season and that are diligent won't be able to participate this season, because it would be quite impossible to achieve Rep 65 even by doing every Fixed course and Intermediate courses.
Note: I'm not even affected but I feel for others that are. I'm only trying to express myself and not arguing with the excellent team behind this community. I hope you consider this @sapwood.
(1) First, it should not be viewed as whether the users are powering it down or not. Keeping it 65 is an iteration from Season 1 to Season 4. And to give a chance to those users who have been consistently participating and virtually have created an Academic community.
(2) Second, once upon a time users were asking what is the use of 50, 55, 60 or even 70 reputation, we just want to make the reputation as valuable as SP. People should recognize how important is reputation and most importantly whether the reputation has been gained through organic curation or not. In short, we are giving a new lease of life and true justice to PoB, HF21 was ideally implemented to boost organic curation. Steemit Crypto Academy is making that a reality.
(3) Third, @steemcurator01 and @steemcurator02 votes are generous, but not unlimited. We have limited resources and we have to manage the entire umbrella of Steemit lead initiatives along with community support programs within the available resources. Creating 10 Tasks in Fixed Beginner Tier will help users to not just become minnows in the earliest possible time but also to make them familiar with the day to day crypto use-cases(particularly those which are necessities), those who participate in Beginner[Fixed] need not have to depend on the CR or any helping hand from their country for the basic use-case of transacting STEEM or TRX with Exchanges(to/fro).
From here on there won't be any huge jump in terms of rep, because we have carefully engineered this framework, taking into account community size.
If you participate in all Tasks of a Season and put all the best possible effort, then you can easily cross the barrier of 60 rep. I think that is quite reasonable. We have many advanced tier users in last season, true, but they did not create a trail of consistency despite being good in their approach. There could be personal reasons or busy-ness. But for this reason, we want to bring new faces so that contour of the competition will have a new shape and that will also further the talent hunt. We don't want to make the contour of competition predictable, if there is no inflow of New users, then the curve of competition is going to harden, which is not a healthy state of affairs for the Academy.
No Sir, we are really happy that you asked and we got an opportunity to make you familiar with our policies, set of rules, principles, and operating model of Crypto Academy. We are glad that you asked this. Thank you for that.
Steem on.
