Sorry my comment wasn’t the clearest. But also you’re welcome for the input which I used my time and brain to write

Definitely set up groups to get feelers for groups first, like Marlene has suggested but also set up a group for willing to travel and meet up because there are a lot of lonely people out there who actually have a burning passion to jet set and explore 😊

All these ideas are great, this is a project I am excited about ! Thank you Joel for everything!! And thank you community for being so nice ☺️

I don't always have time to interact here but anyone who needs to talk can always DM me :) Stay safe and have a great week gang🤍

All these ideas are great!! Maybe there could be a thread/section on Discord where people could introduce themselves. Just a idea, only if people want to interact in this way.

I am very excited to see where this goes. It will take a lot of hard work, as there is so much to consider and different ways to go about this; but, if you can find a way to make it work that would be incredible. You already have such a community here on Patreon and I think it's a fairly healthy one at that. The idea of adding in sharing artwork or music would be awesome. You are absolutely right when you say some people don't feel comfortable just talking and that's not a male thing. I'm one of those people, unless you get me talking about a topic I'm passionate about, but finding what topic that may be as a stranger may be hard. Some non-talking aspects would be nice, I'm just not sure if they'd really spark a conversation that would lead to a friendship or if it'd just be a lot of people saying something nice and that's it. In its own way that can feel not the best too. As far as mental health, I don't think Joel is in any way trying to create a form of therapy like that. He's forming a community. A place for people to connect and find others with similar interests. He's a huge advocate for therapy and mental health, from what I've seen. If someone is struggling severely they should absolutely seek out professional help, but a community like this could also benefit a lot of people and sometimes just meeting people who help make you not feel lonely is a good start to a mental health journey/ a good way to socialize instead of isolate. The amount of therapy I've been through, the number one thing they ask me is if I have people I can talk to. I can tell you, my answer has not always been yes.

Yes of course Emy! My reading was at fault there, it was at the end of my day. I apologize, it came out wrong. Loved your suggestions, that's why I put it in there!

Thank you for taking the time to pore through my long-winded aunty comments. Here's another round of my aunty thoughts. *deep breaths* I've read genuine concerns and think that you'll need to delve into setting clear framework on community guidelines and boundaries. I'm not an expert and my ideas are mostly based on my personal experiences, that had been safe and positive thankfully, so please sift through with care. If necessary, please seek legal advice. Online activities: Apart from modders, will you need volunteer facilitators to help out? Something like modder + facilitator duo working together. A rotating schedule between them can help ease each other because after all, community-based activities highly relies on voluntary help and attendance availability. There's so many good ideas from everyone. 😍 I would think the start of anything awesome can get overwhelming at first. And then, things become more manageable. (I don't know how to best explain this part.) Meet-up activities: I took the longest time to form my thoughts on this. I've read through comments and listen to your opinion. I feel like kicking myself, reading my previous statement: "create opportunities for people to see each other" and possibly put you in a compromised position with this suggestion. Please tread carefully and manage everyone's expectations. Joel, safety for yourself and the community will always be your utmost importance. There's only so much 1 lone Swede guy can handle. I hope that everyone continue to keep a look out for each other and lend support to Joel as I've always witnessed. I sincerely wish Joel's vision to help others to be a peaceful one. Till then, everyone... please take care~~💜

Thank you for adding this.. I had one bad encounter on SM and then irl, but sometimes that can be enough. It wasn't that serious, but it left me a bit paranoid when it comes to online and irl. This community feels very safe, but I'm a bit worried about a bigger community and maybe more vulnerable people who just want to have connections.

Big hugs to you! 💜 I'm glad you're putting yourself forward to try again and be a part of a community. I also had a scary encounter at 16+/17 years old at school. A schoolmate (same age group, different class) took a liking on me too much and becomes staIkerish. Thank god my classmates helped me, gave him a good scolding and he backed off. Things could have turn out more ugly if he was hell-bent to be harmful to me. That experience is enough to make me feel more introverted. Looking forward, I would think as the community becomes bigger, we should join hands to look out for ill-intentioned individuals, no matter how well a system is running, will find sneaky ways to get their preys. We should report to modders/Joel and help make the community space a great one. 🤗

Thank you, Aslyn ❤️ I'm so glad your classmates were looking out for you. You're right, that encounter may have made me feel more insecure and hesitant to meet new people. That person sent me my exact location when I was on a family vaccation 😧 ngl it scared the hell out of me. Everything is alright, and I didn't want to bring the buzz down about meeting up, just wanted to say that people like this also exist. I was just thinking that maybe some people wouldn't bring an additional person (even when it's advised), especially if they have no friends and feel so lonely that they would risk it.. and that worried me a lot. I really love your idea about looking out for each other even in a bigger community 🤗

I have goosebumps reading how creepy and scary! Actually, you brought up valid points. Thank you for sharing your insight. When Joel reads everyone's comments, he can make better decisions. He can't solve and eradicate every problem but at least there are efforts to minimise risks. Sheeshh.. I'm getting sleepy and hugging my pillow. It's my bedtime. Lol. Thank you, Nina, for conversing with me. 💜 I wish you have a good day/evening ahead. See you around! Bye~~💜

Thank you, Aslyn, for helping me to express this. I understand that people need and want to meet irl too, maybe the whole group could be nice (and fun). Have a good night and an amazing weekend 😊❤️

The way you talk about all of this just shows you have a healthy mindset. I don't know how else to explain it... But acknowledging your own commitments/what you can do and making it where you're just like... Ya know... Like a Youth Group leader as silly as that sounds. You're there for people who need it, but you are just facilitating a good community where others can find each other. And I love that. :) I know I'm a bit late in talking but I do think Smule is a great community. You get to sing with one another with feels like a great way to connect in another emotional level. I've made friends that way too! And I think being able to listen to other people sing with you and connect with them, commenting on the joins, creating groups to make group collabs is a great way to fellowship with others <3
