How about electing a community manager?

General Discussion
#35

Hi mate, for clarify I’m from Spain (Actually now I;m in Bilbao my home town) but yeah I’m from the Nem Aussie team. Next week move to HK work for NEM there.
I mention Greeox but I;m not supporting or against it. My personal opinion is that they need to separate the community proposal from the ICO.
In Australia I was in touch with some agriX startups, they were interested in NEM apostille for certificates and messsaging for traceability and record information. Greeox is from Vietnam. In Spain agriculture is huge as well but so far they are not using a lot tech, IOT or blockchain.

If you enter into the thread we can discuss better than here

#36

Yes wrong thread, sorry.

#37

Thank you for the many and valuable contributions.

I apologize in advance for the huge block of text that comes now. I will try to create small paragraphs so that the Google Translator can be used.

  1. As mentioned above several times, this is not about Nem’s Youtube appear.
    I do not see any need for action there.

  2. The Community Manager should have more tasks than this position has normal.
    What I mean, I can show you using the example of @GodTanu @Julico .

So we have a vibrant, creative community in Japan with high output. Most of the things that are created there remain in the dark for most Western observers. How could the CM help now?

  • he / she is / are the representation officially chosen by the community there.

  • Now collect material and projects in Japan, evaluate them and work on translations. For this, someone who is capable of translating from the community would have to be looked up and recruited locally.

  • After he knows the language and understands the traditions, it is easy for him to get the necessary information from the respective project participants.

  • In the last step, the translated, data with pictures and short keynotes would be transmitted to the Foundation. These could be integrated into nem.io. For this, the extra part NEM IN JAPAN would have to be created as an onepager.

  • Or the community, with the help of the Foundation, creates its own page presenting its projects to the world. Which in my opinion would be great.

But all this work requires an organizer in the community. This is just one example of a bit of a structure in which the community could help everyone.

P.S. With Projects, i do not mean the Project Proposal processes

必要ない方もいらっしゃるかとは存じますがざっくりと翻訳です。

多くのご意見感謝いたします。

グーグル翻訳を使用できるよう、小分けにして書こうと思いますが、
ここから長文になります、お許しください。

1.上で何度か触れられているように、この提案はNEMがYoutubeにもっと投稿するとかいう話ではありません、わたしはそこでアクションをとる必要を感じていません。

2.コミュニティー・マネージャーというのは、我々のような通常のコミュニティメンバーよりももっと多くのタスクをする必要があると考えています。
[@GodTanu]や [@Julico] が述べているような例だったりします。

密度が濃くて、活気ある創造的なコミュニティが日本にあって、そこで作られたもののほとんどは、西洋の目に入りません。
そこで、CMがいれば、何ができるでしょう？

・その人は、公式にそこのコミュニティによって代表者として選ばれた人（たち）となります。

・その地域の資料やプロジェクトを収集し、評価し、翻訳作業を行います。この作業のため、翻訳者は、その地域から探して採用しなくてはいけません。

・言語や伝統を理解している人たちなら、それぞれのプロジェクト参加者から必要な情報を簡単に入手することができます。

・そして翻訳された画像と簡潔な要点を含むデータを財団に送ります。これらはnem.ioのサイトに統合することができます。このため、NEM日本の余っている部分に進捗管理表を作る必要があります。

・それか、（日本の）コミュニティは、財団の助けを借りて、世界に日本のプロジェクトを示す独自サイトを作ったらよいのではないでしょうか、私の考えではすばらしいものになるかと思います。

このすべての作業には、コミュニティの主催者が必要です。これはコミュニティがみんなのことを助けることができる組織化の、ちょっとした一例に過ぎません。

P.S.「プロジェクト」といっていますが、プロジェクト提案プロセスそのものを意味していません。

In this discussion, it sounds like there is some dissatisfaction with the foundation from the community (e.g. slow moving). It would be helpful if the community could put together a list of things that the foundation could be doing better or should be doing that it is not.

If you put together such a list, I’ll make sure the foundation sees it.

Communicate your ideas, suggestions for improvement, criticism to the NEM Foundation
#41

I posted this in a thread.
It may not make any list but I just thought it may be of interest.
Link to thread.

It is glaringly obvious that the Devs/programmers supporting and using Nem have no home base.

I created this google form. Anybody can write feedback and ideas. It’s anonymous (if you want to put a nickname or email it’s up to you). Thanks @Jaguar0625 for the idea.

Let’s make NEM great again :wink:
I like the idea of the Google Form @Trikar_Blockchain @Jaguar0625

I’m sure at least 80% of the feedback will be total nonsense when I read the stuff in Nemberia. A list is the least appropriate way to communicate. But well, what the hell.

#45

Then why did you recently post a new topic with links to the list?

#46

Because sometimes you have to take in life what you are given and you have to make the best out of it. And this list is better than nothing. That’s what I basically summarized in “what the hell”. think and connect

What is an alternative to the list?
Quite frankly I really do not feel the need for anonominity myself to make suggestions as suggestions are only suggestions.
I can make them here, yet some people may need this anonominity for some reasons, I guess depending on their public profile.

Also what if someone or a group spammed the list with their own interests?
Who would discern what is legitimate and what is some sock puppet stuff?

So this list goes to the Foundation… do you think sock puppets could arise and fill the list with one sided objectives?

Rather risky when we do not get to see the content and it is guaranteed to go to the foundation.

#48

Annonymity is up to you. The point of the list is not about WHO, is about HOW and WHAT NEM can improve.
Anyway All the feedback is already here, but it’s easy and faster read that in a list. This forum is open and anybody can write any ideas, feedback and criticism.

#49

No this does not address sock puppets.
This is cyrpto and we are all well aware of shills and sock puppets.
There is no valid respond or argument here.
You are just reiterating what you posted hours ago.

#50

I’m happy to see a dev in here responding and the google form is not that bad of an idea - I’m not sure what you think may happen if someone uses a socket puppet to spam a certain idea. I would imagine the Foundation won’t take action on the idea if they believe it is a bad use of resources or would have a negative impact on the NEM community.

Maybe you could give some examples as I’m struggling to see a really bad outcome, maybe some issues getting overlooked? But I hope they will take all the feedback seriously.

Also want to say I really enjoyed the two NEM in Action videos this week, especially the last one. This is the kind of stuff I was talking about in regards to more YouTube content, I know some thought it wasn’t a big deal (and it’s not huge) but I think 150 videos a year will bring a lot more people to NEM than 25-30.

You did not reply to anyone, yet you asked for examples, well the Binance Nexus vote is one.

#52

Don’t be combative we should be constructive here. I didn’t dismiss your point, I just didn’t entirely understand it.

I don’t know much about the Binance Nexus vote, but I don’t see how a Binance coin listing vote (I’m guessing that is what it was) is relevant to a feedback form. It won’t be a vote where the problem with the most feedback gets solved and the rest are ignored.

We should try it this way, the foundation should come back with us with what they got from the process, give us a general plan as to how they will take action and we can continue the discussion from there.

#53

I am a little bit sad. Community started with the idea of creating community manager. We started discussing it, with interruptions about marketing stuff which is totally out of topic stuff. Then Trkar, NEM Foundation employee came here stating we don’t need community manager as NEM has few public figures that are fitting in the role. (No bad feelings @Trikar_Blockchain, you are one of the hardest working NEM employees)
Then in the topic in which we discuss the lack of community manager and community interaction you guys posted a google form asking what community lacks. I think it’s funny.

So did this thread die? Or is there any constructive feedback / progress?

I think the idea of having community managers (probably per region) is a good one. It is probably best for them to be independent of the foundation. But, they might be more likely to succeed with support from the foundation. So, if there are current hinderances/roadblocks, they would be good to identify and remove.
