The user deleted the Mironi music social app for two main reasons. First, the app's gamification system could be unfairly exploited by continuously playing music to earn points and badges. Second, the challenges and rewards did not differ enough for beginners versus experts, which made the app grow boring over time with limited opportunities for advancement. Alternative systems that stop repetitive plays and provide time-limited special badges for holidays or anniversaries could help address these issues.

8. Nevertheless the mironi has gamification,
Why did I delete this app?

9. Reason 1 : Gaming the system
I unfairly used the mironi app to collect badges and to be ‘Best
Fan’ more than others. Nonstop playing music etc…
( Best fan title is given to a user who has played the most each
songs and musicians)
Alternative>> Grooveshark’s System
In case that a user contiously
listens to only one song, this
system stops playing the song
and recommends other songs.

10. Reason 2 : Challenges and rewards
I.
Beginners and masters are little different in rewards
II.
There is a limit to the amount of badges and points, then the
mironi increasingly grow boring
III. Few challenges and rewards for masters
Alternative>> Provide unique badges and Events
For example, the mironi can give ‘Epik High
10th debut anniversary badge’ to Top 20
players in ‘Epik high’ category on Oct. 23,
2013.
