Even responding to valid comments here and those from insane people takes time out of our day.

But us crazies love to be responded to. 😅
I'm glad to see that your working in a positive direction and we know that a lot of work goes on behind the scenes. I'm sure that you could enlist more help from the community to do the slower more basic work. I'm happy to volunteer for a couple of smaller tasks if you need.

We need more people willing to contribute.

You could manage a group of people doing the smaller tasks while you spend more time planning and coordinating. The community is full of good users who would get involved if they knew what was needed.

When the splinterlands DAO requested people to cover positions they got a huge response so if there was a list of simple but time consuming roles that could be advertised i think that users would jump in. Especially long term users who can be depended on to stay active in a role.

Personally i would much rather hire a couple of the community to work full time on these tasks ahead of certain other projects with a team of volunteers working alongside them but since it's not the case then i hope that you can find a way to spread the workload to a few more people and take the pressure off as well as see more results.

Haha. You know fair well that didnt apply to you. 😅

What would you be interested in doing? @guiltyparties was looking for someone to write a article about Hive. Im sure he could use help with that.

Even the best guys I know that do minor tasks I still end up having to pay. And they need management. I mean I could make a post asking people to do certain things which again needs quality control. lol. Might be some stuff that wont need it... Im just thinking as I write.
Maybe if we had a group on Discord someone wants to create and then kind of recruit volunteers that we could come to with some tasks to do? Maybe would work? But you see how that would also need management.

I mean Splinterlands pays Clay for this type of work. I think its like 60k a year. And Splinterlands is much smaller than Hive. If there was actual pay I could even do corporate talk with no profanity. 😂. Maybe. No promise.
But it would realistically allow us to be more structured because it would be a job. Right now its kinda, "are you grabbing this? Do you want me to grab this? Who can get on this?"
But realistically it wont happen. I can speculate on why. I have my opinions that i shared on why I think it is but it doesnt matter really. It is waht it is.

It is what it is for now but who knows what the future will hold. Until then I think that a discord is a good idea. A select group of interested users ready to help when they can.

Who knows where that might be but it could be handy when your organizing an event or activity to see how is free for 5 hours this week to jump in and help. Or if there is an article to write or graphics to draw up who can take it on.

I have only basic computer skills so can only help where it makes sense. Write articles if needed, to the best of my abilities.
I would be happy to take on the twitter account or another media account that we think could gain exposure. Push hive information to a wider audience or share interesting content to more people. Especially as peakd are now trialing ads onsite more views could have an impact on price and brand image. Nothing will bring in users faster than a big rise in price over the next year or two.

Many hands make light work so if you did have a support group of 10-20 people in a discord chat, surely it could accomplish something and lighten the load on the three for you.

I can see that a discord would need to be managed from helping with the inleo team for a while. They had a great start but unfortunately were juggling too many projects and didn't stay on top of the group that they had willing to work on their behalf. It takes a lot of time to organize initiatives of any level.

again, work on this scale really needs a full time person as organizer with volunteers to help but maybe down the line it it could be shown to be effective and how much time goes into it.

Im not sure that would be possible for the Hiveblocks account but you could DM any dapp that should be posting more and ask them to take over. For example, Ecency and Peakd dont post nearly as often but VP cant give funds towards them because they already get DHF funding. Peakd for example was interested in it. They might be someone you can ask to help out.

For the discord, I dont want to manage it. Honestly. It would be more work. But if someone else wants to do it, and it works, would be great. Im cynical as in people willing to contribute for no pay. But again, this isnt something that even needs a VP blessing. Anyone can do it themselves and run it themselves.

For graphics stuff its usually Crim that does it when she has time or I think Hive creators are paid for stuff like it. Im not entirely sure.

The Inleo thing they did was a lot of work and if you remember they did pay people in the end.
