RE: Your Hopes and Expectations for COMMUNITIES? + My Thoughts
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I'd really like to know how the existing tokens can be incorporated into the community experience.
I'd like to know whether ownership can be transferred.
I'd like to know about how to clearly and easily search for them and whether they'll be listed in a date created or alphabetical way - alpabetical would be more fair I think. And of course a good way to search for them - not just by title, but by interest. For example, could the community list their interests (thinking Natural Medicine is not just 'herbalism' but also 'vegan' 'meditation' and so on as part of the broader experience). If you were a new user, how would you know what community you'd fit into with random or not so self explanatory names? I mean, kittens is clearly aobut kittens - I hope - and not some dporn thing. So if there the communities had 'tags' within the communities to find them eg Hypothetically, I arrive on Steemit, and I'm interested in 'yoga'. I search 'yoga' in communities and it throws me three choices: 'Yogis On Steem' 'Natural Medicine' 'Yoga Mamas' - because those communities have elected 'yoga' to be ONE of the tags that helps find them.. Does that make sense?
I definitely think that whatever community is made needs to be the same across all interfaces - can't even imagine the headf78k if it isn't.
By the way, it's @riverflows.
Yes communities can easily be incorporated into the community experience. SE or SMTs
The thing about SE token communities is that you'll still need the Scot Bot in order for it to distribute the tokens for you based on the tag trigger.
Communities provided by hivemind act more like a way to organize and moderate content and use hivemind to it's fullest extent.
I wonder if the scot bot could even be programmed to use the hive-0001 tag to trigger the scot bot to deliver tokens which means only those posts added to the community are really capable of getting tokens. (mostly)
So the big benefits in your case I would assume are that you can control who is abusing your communities posting stuff there that don't really belong. Meaning mute users or even just posts. Also the ability to make other users admins or moderators. Or in the future have communities where only those you've given access can post.
But for example if you don't want a certain bot to spam your users you now have control... or can LABEL the bot as "A friendly bot"
I was thinking.. how rude, you didn't reply.. but forgot that I commented under NM. Oops.
I imagine the scotbot could fo that easily enough. Been inside to play with the communities feature and there is definitely alot to be improved upon. I definitely see it as more of a forum - for example, a group discussion about a particular herb, for example, withouut the need to write an authoritative good post (I feel obligation to write decent content.. in a community this isnt necessary as there are no outside eyes I presume). Whilst people might belong to many communities most will only spend most time in small handful.
I would also like to see a search conversations function. In this case more like reddit i suppose. Say we have a long conversation in community about.. idk.. benefits of bananas, and 3 weeks later someone says 'hey, whats with bananas' .. do we have to scroll endlessly to find it or is it possible to have an archiving system easy searchable?
I can see huge benefits... quora like questions rewarded within community, contests etc... but I would like to vet members too, or have rules for entry.
Also would like a customisable header or side bars for images customisable by admin.. say an advertisement widget. Lots of ideas.
Would love early access to test. Been running NM Discord so long that it would be great to keep some of the things we have there on chain.
Oh god yeah.. the option to admit or kick bloody comment bots.
