Too many people abuse the faucets, so its still a good thing if faucets is removed..
I disagree. I believe that quite a lot of people can see how such a site works and decide if he likes it with the pennies from faucets. Some will stay, some will go.
The problem is the implementation of such a faucet. Because it's not OK to give 500 sat unlimited times and quite often. Maybe 500 sat / week (!) / IP, with the timer reset after every deposit (?).
just add the option to play with some fun points, instead of bitcoins from faucets.
