Hello,
I have been participating in the Japanese challenges for the last year or two and I noticed there is always a couple of accounts at the top with ridiculous amounts of coins. I don’t want to accuse anyone of abusing the system to get these large amounts of coins, but I looked through some of these profiles and they seem a little suspicious. Millions of words read every challenge, thousands and thousands of new lingqs created and also thousands of words learned, much higher than the other participants.
I consider myself to be a pretty active user reading 1-3+ hours a day often, but I don’t amass anywhere close to the amount of coins they get.
I don’t have a problem with people using LingQ however they want, but I’ve become a little suspicious of these accounts that are ahead of other participants by over 100,000 coins. Again, I don’t want to make claims that people are cheating the system, I just want to make sure that people who are using the app as intended are getting an honest shot in the challenges.
I hope my suspicions are misplaced.
