Adds up fast with lots of referrals, don't want to break the bank.
Can lower the rewards significantly and up the referral percent, if you want to bitch.
Now, now, be nice to your users. They just want to get aomething more decent from your faucet. Some pwople don't actually use them but then they promote it to get referrals. They get coins from that and not from actually from using the faucet. I even know some faucets where you can get decent amount of referral commision and people do earn more from refs than the faucet itself.
More decent?
You can claim 251 Satoshi every 5 minutes.
60 Minutes / 5 Minutes = 12 Claims per Hour.
12 x 251 = 3,012 Satoshi per hour.
That's one of the highest paying faucets online.
1 Referral claims 12 times in an hour, 12 x 25.1 = 301.2.
100 referrals and that's an easy 30,102 Satoshi / Hour if they actively claim.
It's a faucet, not a way to get rich quick. If the users want to complain regardless of getting a decent amount if effort is put in to it, then I can shut down the faucet and not have to give away anything.
