[Closed] Increase funding request for the crossword puzzle challenge and community engagement activities

midoriya_crypto · August 31, 2022, 12:56pm

You uploaded this image but you failed to post the later response from it. Why?

You can see he made his decision and no one forced him so how did we shill and force him to buy?
He was speculative on shitzu and made his decision

You also clearly don’t know about shitzu, it’s a Decentralized token,a whale can do as he pleases because of that but a strong Community is stronger than a whale and you seem to ignore the fact they were proposing a fork which would make shitzu not Decentralized anymore as someone technically control it’s action to certain extent.
It also said people lost money but did it say people were forced to buy it? No.

Again this image doesn’t show that they forced people to buy

Did anyone force this fellow to buy?No
It’s like saying you bought near at the top and you are blaming them for your investment decision Which doesn’t make sense.

This image proves nothing at all also,he made a good statement. You are reporting shitzu because you lost on your investment,why don’t people report BTC for making them lose money from ATH,why don’t they report Near, Eth, avax,sol for making them lose money from ATH. He also said no one encouraged you to buy shitzu and that is right no one forced you too,we can all joke around and say “buy” as that’s what you see in meme token group but in the end no one is putting a knife to your throat forcing you to buy right?

He woke and chose to buy shitzu, what does this imply
It implies he made the decision on his own choice, I mean he literally said " he chose".

He said he only believes in buy,did he force you to buy?
Things like what he said are common things said in a meme token community

He just bought some here but I don’t see him telling you have to buy it. He said what he did and didn’t force you to buy

This again is a normal talk in a meme token Community and it doesn’t Force anyone to buy

He asked a question, this doesn’t indicate that he forced you to buy

Common words said in a meme token Community also and he didn’t say he was forced to buy it,his words even show he wants to buy it

This is actually showing support for shitzu,he spoke out because he wanted to add value to shitzu which isn’t a bad idea but the community turned down the proposal and he didn’t continue with it.

This is a common thing said everywhere right?
Will you blame michael saylor for saying buy the dip or elon musk for saying it,he said it jokingly and didn’t force you to take his actions seriously

You can clearly see lol at the end of it

This doesn’t show anything, he was joking as people do In meme token communities
This doesn’t show anything

This doesn’t prove anything either, @agt is a big supporter of shitzu and he responded with positivity someone say buy shitzu Which doesn’t mean you should invest

I have proved my point that no one was forced to buy shitzu

You seemed to not read this,he made a valid point, since he bought all those things at the top,he should call them out right?

You are the one who makes a decision.

I agree that this is just some spite on his side

midoriya_crypto · August 31, 2022, 1:27pm

Shitzu is a community for education, supporting near and aurora included

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 1:33pm

What does it mean, “supporting by Near”. By who in persons ? Thanks

agt · August 31, 2022, 1:33pm

Please visit our TG to see how our community aligns with the proposal submitted.

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 1:41pm

I couldn’t find any NF or Aurora employees in the Tg group.

I see @gonemultichain and @eviejugo in admins, but I believe they are unaware of the token model.

agt · August 31, 2022, 1:47pm

They are and are aware we do not actively shill the coin. The employee comment is irrelevant. Not sure if you understood @midoriya_crypto statement. We support near and aurora via the puzzles we make and fund. Have you looked at our reports and Twitter engagements? Inside the report, you will find all the relevant links showing our engagements. None, shill the token.

The offer still stands, refer those folks who lost money to dm me. We will work something out. We have multiple projects already lined up for September, and shutting us down will be a blow to our nascent community. Shitzu has been an active participant in the NearisNow movement.

David_NEAR · August 31, 2022, 1:57pm

Hey all,

I think, in this case, we shouldn’t get bogged down in the use case of a particular token.

All blockchains, at least the good ones, have meme tokens.

Are they useless in terms of utility? Probably. Most of the time.

Are they useless on the whole? No. We’ve seen time and time again that communities rally around the meme culture that thrives with these types of things.

The Shitzu team and community are loud on social media and have an active presence throughout the NEAR Ecosystem. Their crossword competitions have been well received by the wider NEAR community AFAIK.

The amount requested isn’t dramatically high. It’s not lining the pockets of the proposer. It’s being leveraged to engage the community. If it works, let’s encourage it.

gonemultichain · August 31, 2022, 1:58pm

hi @Dacha. I am very new to the community but in the 2-3 weeks I have been part of it, I have not felt they were “pump & dumping” the token. In fact they actively discussed about projects like Trisolaris, USN, NEX… and @agt is always encouraging users to use their knowledge to create themed crosswords (e.g Suahilasmat did recently a crossword about Cosmos to celebrate the recently passed NEP that enables IBC).

i am part of ~50 TG regional guilds and Shitzu is one of the most active communities I have seen, so kudos to them in that sense.

But I do understand your concern about potentially burning some newcomers, so perhaps we should request @agt that there is always a pinned post warning about NFA/ DYOR and the meme-nature of the coin itself.

agt · August 31, 2022, 2:03pm

NFA/DYOR message has been pinned

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 2:05pm

Good morning, I got, Thank you.

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 2:12pm

Please also add information that nobody from Official NF and Aurora team doesn’t support the token. Thanks.

David_NEAR · August 31, 2022, 2:15pm

I don’t think they implied that.

I believe they’re saying that Shitzu, and its platform, support NEAR and Aurora in education efforts, rather than NEAR/Aurora supporting Shitzu officially.

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 2:17pm

This education program (not supported by Aurora and NF) a substitute shilling. A little bit weird statement from the well-standing project.

David_NEAR · August 31, 2022, 2:19pm

May well be, but just making clear that I don’t think they ever implied NF/Aurora ever officially supported the project

midoriya_crypto · August 31, 2022, 2:47pm

Thank you for seeing it sir
We are just using the crossword for educational purposes and that’s what we use the grants for and sometimes for fun.

agt · August 31, 2022, 2:55pm

I Will revise the pinned message; so it emphasizes - not financial advice and do your own research. Also, will add that the token is not supported or endorsed by near or Aurora.

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 2:58pm

I believe it can an interesting, separate (from Shitzu token), project.

agt · August 31, 2022, 2:59pm

Why is it closed? Should we submit a new one?

Dacha · August 31, 2022, 3:00pm

Because 3 councils said no. Yes, feel free to re-submit later.

Please, don’t forget to include a disclaimer:

Nobody from Official NF and Aurora team doesn’t support the token;
Shitzu is meme token, DYOR

Remove all stickers with Aurora and Near core teams. Exclude Shitzu tokens as rewards and any links on Shitzu token groups. Thanks.
