If OPR is to be used as part of the reference, those licensed to be staked will need to Opt-In on Stars to have their OPR stats freely viewable.

So, ive only been following this thread half heartedly as it was going.
Im confused at what the £10 is for?
I know its to "process your application", but what is it to be used for (please say Team Winners Medals from last year?!!?!? ;) )
I just find it unusual to see why the charge is there, if you want to deter idiots flooding the forums, then you could still have the application AND the 1% fee, and just dont give status to those you dont want to hold it.
CMU, PTP etc didnt require a Join Up Fee?
Ive always held APAT in good regards due to the value they offer to their members, dont understand why all of a sudden you want to charge people to post a stake request?
If i have missed all these answers prior, apologies.

So not to derail particular staking threads, the guidelines indicate we should state the premium in terms of mark up (ie 1.1 etc) and i think this is the best way of being open about the premium being charged on the stake, whilst negating the need to state whether the return includes stake back or not. I also think it makes the 1% calculation easier that goes to APAT.
Current threads are stating in terms of 100% staking but with60/40 return etc. personally think the board should have a universal way of stating the premium (I would use decimal method).
I mean 60/40 on a 100% stake is a HUGE markup (about 1.67) and established pros would struggle to sell at that rate and I think stakers should know this before this board gets established.

PTP (don"t/never used CMU) charge a lot more and IIRC, as it"s been a few years, charge both staker and stakee. They also charge per BAP.
The £10 seems to be mainly as a deterrent to stop grimmers. And as an added bonus, it helps APAT, when the sponsorship market right now is a bit poo, to say the least.
