Hello Everybody,
Happy Weekend!
I hope you all are staying safe and zen out there.
In the coming days, the SCC is bringing 2 topics of conversation for the Community to provide its opinions on.
These ideas are rough drafts, still being discussed by Mods & Superstonk Community Corps Members
These are by no means set in stone, which is why I come to you...The People, for your input. The Community here, is what runs Superstonk, nobody else.
I have one major rule in my Fireside Chats: Be respectful of one another & debate topics/ ideas in a respectful and genuine manner. I have no patience for disingenuous actors.
- Topic #1:
Many members have expressed in various ways that the sub is not what it once was, and the DD has diminished in quality.Our very own TiberiusWoodind believes they have diagnosed the problem, as the proliferation of misinformation, and has put forth a possible solution for you all to discuss.We are currently fleshing out this solution, ironing out the edges and will be presenting this solution to you all, in the coming days. So hold tight.

- Topic #2:
This is a proposal presented by me. I feel in light of the current state regarding the Gamestop Marketplace being put on ice, I felt there is a hole that can be plugged with something meaningful, while we await news of our beloved GMErica expansion. Something that brings the Community together & provides us a fun Community driven event.
By all means, all criticism is welcome. If you feel this should be scrapped/ continued/ put on hiatus, please voice your opinion!
I would like to propose the Superstonk Streamer Spotlight Raffle!
Substituting the Web3 Giveaways, each Friday we would provide the Community a chance to prop up several of their own, who thoroughly love Gaming.
Each Week, we would take in 5 Apes (this # is a rough draft and could be minimized or increased due to Community opinion), who would write a short summary of what Gaming & Gamestop mean to them. Present what Gaming itself means to you, how Gamestop has played a role in that aspect of your life, and a little bit about yourself, as a Gamer & Investor in GME. Share your passion for something we all love.
The Community could vote, or the SCC could randomly choose X number of Apes to present their short Gamer Bio, to promote their streams for that weekend. Allowing people who are passionate about Gamestop and Gaming, a platform to come together and share that passion.
I believe this could be Superstonk's way of taking that first major leap, towards what many of us believe Gamestop is attempting to achieve with Playr.
What better way to promote our own, for when the moment comes that GME releases their own Twitch Competitor, than to already have an Ape collective ready to support those within their Community and support Gamestop with a force ready to populate their rumored Gaming Streaming Service!!
I understand this does come with a small issue....Rule 10..
Now Rule 10 states that there shall be no Self-Monetization. However, I feel there is a bit of wiggle room when it comes to the Community / SCC, making the choice on randomly choosing who to promote.
We could post Streaming Names, without links.
We could specifically require these streams to disclose if they are monetized and allow the Community to choose to support them or not.
Either way, this would be US choosing to prop up who we felt earned our support & not people merely trying to leech off of this Community.
Free choice, free Market, in a sense.
I would greatly appreciate some feedback on these ideas. I serve the Community. Nobody else. My role as an SCC Member is simple:
Do EVERYTHING I can to make Superstonk bullet-proof to any bad actors, to help adapt the Sub to changes we may face (Reddit Admins/ IPO), and to best listen to YOU and what YOU all feel is best for the sub.
I fucking love this place. I love the debates, I love the tenacity, and the pure unwavering grit. Superstonk never steps aside from a fight, this place is an unstoppable force for the Company we love and the Markets we demand be released from corruption, & one day the World will recognize the work this place has done._______________________________________________________________________________________________________

"A river cuts through rock, not because of its power, but because of its persistence"
What kind of views, specifically
That's absolutely something we can continue, or I can add into the Fireside Chats
I'm going to ask you continue discussing, with respect for one another...
We don't gatekeep here.
Just because someone doesn't have an ETH wallet, does not mean they don't love this Company as much as someone who does.I appreciate your input though, but civil discourse is one of my only rules here....
I don't have an ETH wallet....can you milk me, Greg?
lol but really interesting take. Obviously it would be entries that are vetted and voted upon, utilizing their entry bio to make the choices.
The Community would be the ones doing the final vote on who to support, given the list of applicants.
You heard the man...Farts and Butts are guaranteed on their stream.
Yeah screw those people... 👀 lol
Just take some time away, this is just one interaction within an ocean of them. Sometimes it's best to step away and give yourself some air.
I'm not asking you to accept it, I'm just asking you both to table it for now.
Sorry you're having issues getting conversations started, my intentions for these posts are to foster discussion, without any issue.
I'll take your complaint to the SCC and Mods.
You both could have handled this a bit better, imo.
Let it settle, we'll handle things on our end.
I'm going to ask that you reread my only rule for the Fireside & you stop abusing the report button...
Take a moment, step away, and take a deep breath please.
Much appreciated.
This conversation is beyond its point
I understand how the process of allowing posts to stay or go, SCC is in these conversations, daily.
You've stated your opinion. Thanks. Your assumption of how I'm responding is incorrect, I welcome criticism. Sorry you feel that way.
You're the first, and only person, who has reacted this way with such negative passion.
Unless you have any other takes in the post, I'm going to step away 👍👍 You've stated your opinion and I appreciate it. I, however, will not engage with someone who throws a fit because I didn't react how you wanted me to and called my response "tasteless".
Do you realize how many posts that go up, that have nothing to do with the stock..? A lot.
This is about the Community.
This would be a one day thing, it wouldn't interfere with the sub, and you'd have every ability to ignore it. Nobody is throwing it down your throat, demanding you support. It would be a CHOICE, not mandatory.
It's something to bring the sub together, during a time of stagnation within the sub.
Have a good one.
...I feel like I addressed your issues within the post. Maybe you're misunderstanding?
Not "pushing" anyone. Rule 10 is regarding "Self-Monetization", not Community chosen support. There is no "false hope", it's merely to support others.
This is a sub for Gamestop stock. Gamestop is a gaming company & many of us are die hard gamers.
If you don't care, that's fine but so far you're the first person I've seen say anything negative.
I appreciate your input though.

Wholeheartedly agree.
This is definitely a conversation we will continue to flesh out within the SCC discord & alsothrough the Community.
I'd very much like to get the Communities opinions on this, too. So hopefully engagement picks up.
