We need an actual referral system. They work.

This from hiveonboard is fun, but it's for fun. We need to use some of those community funds to put some actually money into this. The incentive for the referrer is that they tell the person who got the new account they should give 3% of their rewards to the referrer. So nice you get 3% of no upvotes because they are new. Plus you are supposed to delegate to them. So maybe you get 3% of your own upvote. So basically invite people and then spend time helping them get started for free. How is a big content creator going to get any use of putting this in their description? It barely even looks appealing for the person being referred.

Aren't we good enough of this website to stop having these pseudo ideas? We need actual functional programs or we are going to be left behind in the dust.

We've been struggling to attract new users. We need some new ideas.

Why don't you say "sign up for free with my link to make $$$ on Hive" (or whatever you want . Emphasize it's free because of link. That is the benefit for the person who is referred) and give an actual referral bonus to the referrer ($$$$. Not ask the person you referred for money)! Verify the referrers because they are the ones who get $$$. A small few will be carrying the pack numbers wise so it won't be impossible to manage given how small the community is. Avoid bots that way.

Could be a flaw in that idea, but man this stuff is always a step behind where we should be. I don't know who is behind this project. Regardless this post isn't at them. It's for the whole community.
