Description

Fun and the opposite of boring. This could hinder our sadness (poor us) and lighten the views of the DAO. Just think getting an item on stream which is actually from the DAO. They will have to love the DAO then! "Thanks DAO" could be the future comments from citizens. This will give back to the community be it by the creators I slowly splurge on or the citizens that gain a free (good quality) item. I have a lot planned without the DAO, this would just make the participation more worth while, while also spreading the message that the DAO is a positive and fun thing and it is merely just personal human strife that gets in the way. From day 1 I have always given value back, be it 'WinMyFit' on X/twitter, tournaments that span up to 12 weeks long, my 12 published wearables used for giving to viewers or to winners of games, or given to other streamers to incentivise viewer retention and more. I would literally play non stop to get enough supplies to just give away. You can now also get my wearables for free in GolfCraft. I am a known member of decentraland, I even have my name on a GolfCraft wearable because of my prowess of golf and I think more so because of my commitment to dcl. I also sometimes smell bad so I'm probably the most relatable dcl streaming citizen. I am apart of no group or clique by design. I am Helpimstreaming xxx

yup same! past two years 100% dcl, 14 published wearables ect. I rejected this grant because of the small scope. My new grant is about creating almost daily events so that there is fun content to be made all the time for players and for content creators. I also post screen shots of twitch because it's what people want to see here. Thank you for your words

without the need to offend, I have done the same as you, but without asking for a single gram of money from the dao... rethink carefully what it is you want, because in my opinion you only want to get the money for free...and no, I'm not going to put screenshots of my numbers on Twitch... it makes me feel very low. Kind regards.

As we told you on Discord: thank you for your feedback. We would love it if, now that you understand how the grants program works, you could reapply in the category that best fits and with a better-considered budget. Hopefully, we can work together again on a future project; it's been a pleasure getting to know you. DAO committee (@HPrivakos @Tobik @rizk) : could you please proceed with contract revocation soon? Thanks!

[quote="Helpimstreaming, post:24, topic:20082"] But it ended up like a promised routine performance for the DAO which is too taxing. With this grant I wanted to give value by utilising the right moments, not churn something out just to please whoever needs pleasing. [/quote] I would love to hear more about your experience.

HelpimstreamingSep 07, 2023

Hello, unfortunately I will be rejecting this grant due to multiple reasons. The main one being that it's taken up more time and frustration than I anticipated as it got directed into something it wasn't meant to be due to trying to fit into the category. Because of this too much was promised by me. It originally was meant to be a fun free service I can provide for the DAO as and when the opportunity to connect with new users arose. But it ended up like a promised routine performance for the DAO which is too taxing. With this grant I wanted to give value by utilising the right moments, not churn something out just to please whoever needs pleasing. Thank you for gifting me the opportunity and it is unfortunate that I'm taking this potential value for the community away but this decision is right for me. In the future I will consider refining and posting another grant request but it may have to have me and my time in mind.

Dear Community, The[ Grant Support Squad](https://governance.decentraland.org/proposal/?id=7a236540-d305-11ec-b521-2f98ffa6ccb0) was created to support the grantees in achieving their goals and taking care of the DAO treasury. After thoroughly reviewing this project, the Squad wants to communicate that we recommend creating a new vesting contract. Based on the timeframe proposed by the grantee, we held a meeting with the team @Helpimstreaming and reached an agreement that the vesting contract should follow a newly proposed timeline. Therefore, we recommend that the DAO Committee (@HPrivakos @Tobik @rizk) create a new vesting contract that aligns with the presented schedule. **The suggested start date for the new vesting contract, allocating the funds, is Sept 1st, 2023, with a duration of 3 months (same starting date, 3 month duration).** Thank you, The Grant Support Squad

Thank you, I will always be (or try to be) the most active streamer and I am doing everything I can to put my whole life here.

jar0dAug 11, 2023

I have no qualms with the Dao paying the most active streamer promoting Decentraland $1k USD to support wearable creators and reward the community watching his content. even if it turns out you aren't the "most active" (which I think you are right now) It still seems like a good way to go. I do generally agree with @esteban that "100 people getting 5k is better than 5 people getting 100k"

HelpimstreamingAug 11, 2023

Bad timing and foresight I guess. We are all on a continuous path of learning and knowledge. If its not just the delivery of the grant but the grant itself you find silly then I'd love to have feedback!

jar0dAug 11, 2023

It would be hard to have not read this as sarcastic, given the other proposals you submitted around the same time. I'm not mad at you; I just think it's silly.

HelpimstreamingAug 11, 2023

Also this is 0% for me, if you feel it's my grant and not just me providing a service for free from the dao then I'll happily share the Doc with you in monthly intervals and discuss at length what is going on.

HelpimstreamingAug 11, 2023

I'm sorry you read it as passive-aggressive and sarcastic. Hope you can learn to understand brand recognition.

jar0dAug 11, 2023

The fact that your passive-aggressive, sarcastic, grant is going to pass is silly. It’d be more absurd, but there wasn't more money in budget for you to request.

HelpimstreamingAug 11, 2023

Since posting this proposal I have streamed 65 hours. I wish I had time to do more as I really am my true self. Thank you everyone for voting and sharing your opinions.

HelpimstreamingAug 11, 2023

For sure! This has all been considered and makes sense to do this. One thing I'm struggling on is if 2nd hand market is a good idea. I think its not, but maybe in some cases it is okay? One case is for actual none dcl native brands like Penguin or Tommy I'd rather only mint from individual creators or people building inside dcl, but if I see them ridiculously cheap on 2nd maybe that's okay as a one off? My own opinion is no it's not okay and I would just do that out of my own pocket to not sully this. Another case is something only minted from a game on second that may not be available anymore, I believe if this is a one off or kept at >5% and not focused on one game then it's okay. Still has to be a really good price and not from me or the same person or me with a hat on. Either way I am going to keep a Doc of how much, who to, what day ect... until the whole thing is gone. (could be a very long time) It will also have on it if it was an item bought out of my pocket too. (that's just for my knowledge but it's better for me to have them both together)

CanessaAug 09, 2023

Can you try and buy from as many different "active" wearable creators as possible? (Active meaning they are still in Decentraland and showing activity). I like the idea of injecting some capital into the wearables market, I like that you'll be able to spread some wearables to listeners, and I think this is a very small amount of $ to do something good with. Thanks for what you do :)

HelpimstreamingAug 03, 2023

![image|690x63](upload://4ZdYy2i0Fv8rjBDV2b31gPQixx1.png) @Morph I've only ever streamed dcl other than a few games of switch sports and I completed sonic adventure battle 2 again which was ez. But I had Decentrland on the screen during that time too. 99% of this is dcl and it was in the span of Dec 2021 to right this day. This also includes times where I would take upwards to a month off but I was always here.

PeterParker420Aug 02, 2023

I know you will def put the system in place and actully get some people smiling while they enjoy playing and learning about decentraland! I still have one of my first NFT wearables and it came from you in a stream you had when i first played almost 2 years ago! if not longer :pray: :fist_right: :muscle: :mechanical_arm:

HelpimstreamingAug 02, 2023

hello! 1. The schedule was made 2 years ago and not updated (which i should update) but I stream as and when my time allows me. I took a little break due to work and have been back on streaming almost daily. and been streaming dcl for 2 years. I dont save VODS because im some times playing music and daily streams being saved when those streams are 3+ hours long aint gonna bring anyone in, i dont give any technical incite im just the #1 metaverse chiller and I cant post the vod when theres an event on with copywrited music. 2. None of it will be pocketed, as mentioned this is only for what I stated and not for my services because I stream dcl anyway. 3. I'd rather not be responsible for other people or make it so someone who might never have streamed before be incentivised to stream because of some gain they think they will get from this. If someone wanted help from me for their stream (if this passes or not) I would be inclined to listen to help but theres nothing stopping anyone else asking the same of the dao and then its up to the citizens to vote if they think they are respected enough. 4. Yes indefinite, there could be a month where not much is minted or going on. I believe this ask and loose time frame is the only way it can be done without the fun being taken out of it. I cant say well ill only use x amount per month or week as its more about creating better value and relationship with the newer users and the events/games/comps/content I create. Streaming and being a streamer is spontaneous and holds a lot of character. I rely on my job and my own funds have ALWAYS been a one way thing, never coming out from the dcl ecosystem and only in. I really do understand being skeptical but this is how it has to be as my brand is being me and relating to the everyday user. I cant write up more info on when and how long it will last. This is a one time ask that i want to make the most out of. You might just have to judge my character and take a risk. sorry i really rushed this reply as on break but i will go over it again later.

MorphAug 02, 2023

Heya, have a few clarifying questions: 1.) Can we see some stream stats/analytics? I looked at your twitch but not seeing any recent streams on there, there is a schedule but it hasn't been upkept. 2.) Is all $1000 going towards buying wearables? Or would you be pocketing most of this? 3.) Do you think there is a way this could be formed to give more equal access to all streamers for giveaways, i.e. a giveaway system that streamers can sign up for to share with their viewers? 4.) The vesting schedule is 1 month, but it sounds like the intention is for the streaming to go on for an indefinite amount of time, can we have some more concrete timeframes here? I know you've been around a long time and it's always great to have you as a part of the community, however I'm a little skeptical of content creators that ask for funds/grants as opposed to relying on their own content creation income.

HelpimstreamingAug 02, 2023

(taken from dao discord) Anyone that publishes a wearable has a chance to be picked at any given moment. I believe if you have published a wearable you have a right to be chosen because of the commitment that shows to dcl. but.. peoples preferences and their own choice at that time when the option to choose is given is what makes it more powerful. it is a live experience. there are also other factors like what i deem as a good quality wearable, price and also if it relates to the event or the day (real worldly events like valentines, Christmas ect) Although I understand my opinions on wearables are subjective so my choice wouldn't be the be all and end all. Different mechanics can happen for different events relating to the event or time of the event (polls/asking participants or striaght up asking the winner or viewer) I think the fact I have zero relations to any wearable creator plays into this well too. I am not biased on any one in decentraland.
