Hey Rob, SEO_Account was attempting to create a Proposal on the Pool website but he noticed this message:
"** Note: Each new Proposal costs 2500 BBP. Please do not Save the proposal unless you agree to pay 2500 BBP **"
Does the proposal fee come out of the pool account? How does this work?
(If it does come out of the pool account, is there a way to send funds to ones pool account?)
If BBP price is about $0.01 per BBP, thats about ~$25?
My understanding is that proposal fee is to help reduce spamming of proposals?
Thanks!, Togo

Yeah, someone tried to create a proposal pointed to a web site that had a virus on the page. I think theyve tried pretty much everything now.
(That almost beats the one where they uploaded a virus into an orphans letter).
So I had to raise the bar a little bit to enter proposals.
You know, in Dash, its 5 dash to create a proposal, and since that is like $5000, over there the proposer usually asks for reimbursement inside the proposal.
So I recommend doing the same thing here, pad the 2500 bbp on top of your proposal amount.
The amount is deducted from the users pool balance.
Its also there to help reduce proposals down to serious proposals only, the least I would expect is someone to spend $25 up front to ask us to evaluate the proposal (as it takes all of our time to vote on it and read it and discuss it) etc.
I could deposit BBP into ones pool account if a person sends me BBP, Ill credit the pool account if need be.
Awesome!, oh man so many terrible people in the world... ugh
The 5 Dash fee has been interesting to watch given how much it costs now, its hard for the average joe to create proposals over there,
I think theyve been debating a lower fee, but also theyve debating ideas like sub DAOs, and having organizations that vet projects and fund the fee,
very interesting to watch unfold. There was one pretty awesome team that I saw that proposed creating a hardware wallet device for Dash and they got rejected, RIP $5k
Currently I only have ~400 BBP in my pool account and I guess SEO_Account doesnt have much BBP in his either,
I know your pool site abstracts the complexity of creating the proposal in the blockchain, which is awesome!,
but yeah It would be cool to be able to fund my pool account if possible!
I think this is going to cause it to be harder for individuals who want to do work with us who dont mine on the pool or who dont have any coins
(especially new charities/nonprofits and such), and I believe it also centralizes the process and causes you to have to do more work
(which Id like to lift as much extra work as possible from you!), but I do think the proposal fee is totally necessary.
Is there a way to enter the proposal into the blockchain without using the pool?
I believe there is, I can dig into it and write instructions, but not sure if it would show up on the pool website, hmmm
