I believe this could be something more useful once the Nouns holder base grows.
I don't know if Nouners are actually going to use this, I think the current mediums of Discord and Twitter are likely enough for folks who want to meet up together to do so.
thoughtful proposal from a talented team, however i think that given the size of nouns dao and the fragmented nature of communication that already exists, there won't be much pmf for a dedicated social network site
don't believe there's too much of a demand for something like this within Nouns
Only 500ish Nouns vs 20x as many for their other projects and I am not really sure there's PMF at a small size for this.

I don't think this sort of social network is valuable, certainly not more so than the constellation of tools that currently exist.
Grateful to the team for taking the time to put this proposal together, but I am voting against for a few reasons.
I'd like to see this as a nouniverse platform rather than just nouners, I think there'd be a larger userbase and it would be more valuable then.
I feel like this is redundant to the main nouns website. Maybe if there was an expansion to the main website to include some of these ideas but IMO seems redundant because there are so many discords and groups to chat with people.

Vote Reasons & Discussion
Josep | "I don’t think it’s necessary to pay 29ETH to integrate Nouns into a service like this. The should ask for less ETH"
Brook | "lessons from dissolution of Nouns' discord and failure of prop 200: - no re-skins; encourage native solutions to native problems are encouraged - established forms of communication such as Twitter, Farcaster, and DIscord suffice. hence voters don't see a reason to invest in another one. atleast for now"
.ZllW ⌐◨-◨ | "Don't really see a demand for this tool"
pemburux | "Agreed you all, with 29 ETH for the current state we can promote Nouns even more"
byhardy | "Cool concept, not sure it would get used or if there is a fit here. Don't love proposals that don't support wider Nounish ecosystem of non-holders. To this end, the prop feels a bit tone deaf. The prop does not even mention delegates, but the prop is from a delegate themselves?
I do think both skiff and this prop are on the right track, but they should adapt to accomodate other builders in the Nouns ecosystem (and delegates) who don't own a Noun yet."
andreitr | "Voting against this because it does not benefit the broader Nounish community nor does it help proliferate the Noun meme."
RyanMac ⌐◨-◨ | "great resource for nounders to always stay connected & up to date on the ecosystem"
0xDariush | "targeting only nouns holders is not nounish enough.
We have 340 holders atm and at this early stage even if 30% of them gonna use it it's going to be like a small gathering."
BENJAMIN LATSKO ⌐◧-◧ | "cute but no. nouners dont even buy nouns tshirts"
Benbodhi | "I'd like to see this as a nouniverse platform rather than just nouners, I think there'd be a larger userbase and it would be more valuable then."
Mach | "not a fan of the presented concept. Maybe a better proof of concept could sway me in future, but the project is potentially dead on arrival. Nouns risks spreading itself too thin over hundreds of communities, websites, and forums to continue funding more"
Mindtoasted | "I want to vote no on this, why? indeed there are many useful features in this proposal, do not forget to also see how punksclub runs. I think if it can only be used by nouners that's great, but it could be even crazier if all the sub-communities could participate in this, connecting various sub communities who are active in their respective fields. Really love the idea but I have to vote No."
kerimbonia | "i like the idea but if the scope of the proposal included other sub daos or nouns community members, i would lean more towards a yes."

I have used the product within the punks community, and it is incredible. Such a great way to connect with local punks and other punks while you're traveling.
I am a member of the PunksClub and they do a great job of enabling the Punks to connect and get together IRL, which makes for a great time and great networking.
If NounsClub can enable the same connections for Nouns that PunksClub enables for Punks, it will be well worth the 29 ETH.
Goal To connect and integrate Nouns holders online & irl. We will create NounsClub, a social platform dedicated for verified Nouns.
Why?
To grow …
In order for Nouns to grow to its full potential, the community must grow first and foremost, the holders must have strong ties. This also increases demand for Nouns, as new potential holders want to belong to a vibrant community that has a lot to offer.
Our motivation Our goal is to bring the Nouns community together, both online and offline, and help them extract maximum community value from the NFTs they hold. We offer them a social platform tailored to their specific needs that the current social media platforms don’t meet.
Our success story As of today, we have built two rapidly growing twin platforms, PunksClub, bringing together verified CryptoPunks holders, and ApeClub, for BAYC/MAYC holders.
Our efforts in numbers (5 months, fully organic growth):
800+ verified CryptoPunk, BAYC, MAYC holders registered on our platforms Over 200 Punk & Ape holder meetings IRL thanks to our map feature 70 holders’ projects listed on PunksClub and ApeClub 3 events for Punks & BAYC sponsored and organized by us (London, NYC, Miami) Our platform will need some adjustments to be rolled out for Nouns, however it’s already live on the market, so there is no execution risk involved.
NounsClub
The only such platform that brings together Nouns holders in one place and gives them the tools to communicate, collaborate, integrate irl. :point_down:
The interactive map of Nouns holders. You can see who is in your city, arrange meetings, chat together. Are you traveling? Check who’s at your destination location and let others know you’re willing to meet up. :point_down:
