Reactions Are Useless (Or unicode shrug) - 1.5, XL, Pony

Tl;dr: Post images, get buzz. SOL

Edit 2: I've been informed that crossposts reward nothing, and each user only grants at most 50 buzz for a lifetime. The proposed method below is unfortunately also an inviable solution.

Greetings. In light of the recent announcement regarding the changes to buzz accumulation (https://civitai.com/articles/5799/buzz-changes-rewards-and-botting), I would like to illustrate a certain point.

- A daily 25 buzz may be claimed (down from 50).

- A daily 25 buzz is earned for a single image (let's not mention ).

- Reactions grant 2 buzz to the reactor (down from 5), up to 100 daily.

- Posting articles (or models for that matter) grants 0 buzz.

- Posting comments grants 0 buzz.

- Having images posted on one's model grants 50 buzz to the model creator, up to 50000 monthly.

As I see it, a user who does not post content, or prefers to interact with others via language instead of media, must now put in quite a bit of effort to earn very little credit, realistically. Meanwhile, popular checkpoint and some lora creators are flooded with this currency (and see little use for it due to lack of a means to cash out as yet).

To that effect, I propose the following to you:

If you need buzz for generation, post images to this model. I care not which. Whatever buzz I earn from your images, I shall give back to you. (Unless I'm banned, hopefully not.)

I do not care for buzz. I do not care for popularity. I like to help people if I can. As some may know, I am something of an accomplished scripter and bookkeeper, so it will not be difficult for me to keep track of the counts using the API. However, I will not auto donate, as that may be considered botting (and most likely against article 11.4); I'm willing to provide that bit manually (so please don't abuse that or get mad at any delays, I'm not here too often).

To the moderators: I have reviewed the buzz terms of service (https://civitai.com/content/buzz/terms) and do not believe that this model / proposal infringes on them in any way. If I am mistaken, please inform me as such and I shall cease. I'm not normally one to make a fuss but actions seem to speak louder than words. If this is an attempt to cut back on the public's generation time due to server stress, I think it would be better to be honest about it. Otherwise, this false motivation is little better than generating or buying fake followers likes etc, IMO.

Technical notes: This model was trained on civitai's trainer, a single image of a unicode shrugging emote, on SD1.5, using the default settings. It took ~10 minutes of compute time (about an hour for XL & pony).

PS: I received "Buzz Reward: You made your first post of the day () - 8 minutes ago" for this post. >.>

Edit: Added XL and Pony versions, yikes.
