Announcing: Sharing Circle Hero Host Initiative 2.0
by ASilentObserver
Last post
February 11th
...See more Hello, community, We are excited to announce some updates to the Sharing Circle Hero Host initiative [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/General_2446/IntroducingHeroHosts_324125/] designed to encourage broader participation, recognize hosts’ contributions and efforts, and create a meaningful and inclusive experience. As we are about to complete a year of the initiative on Feb 25, we are rolling out some exciting changes and updates to improve the initiative. Our goal is to create a system that celebrates consistent contributions and opens doors for new hosts to step up and share their work. Here are a few new changes in store:  1. Dynamic leaderboard & tiered recognition system: We are rolling out a tiered leaderboard that tracks nomination frequency. It will allow us to celebrate consistent contributions without implying exclusivity. It will be a visual system using asterisks (*) or "X" to indicate multiple nominations (e.g., 6X Hero Host, 5X Hero Host). This way, everyone can see and appreciate the dedication of our most active hosts in a month, quarter, or even year. 2. "Hosting Belts" Certificate initiative We are also thrilled to introduce our "Hosting Belts" Certificate initiative that will complement the tiered recognition system. It will provide a tangible way to celebrate achievements: * Yellow Belt Certificate: 5X Nominations * Green Belt Certificate: 10X Nominations * Blue Belt Certificate: 15X Nominations * Brown Belt Certificate: 20X Nominations * Black Belt Certificate: 25X+ Nominations The count of nominations will be cumulative and not restricted to a week, month, or quarter. The goal is to recognize and appreciate the consistent support and hosting from our regular hosts.  3. Introduction of "Hero Supporters" recognition initiative: Hosting isn't the only way to contribute to Sharing circles. We are also introducing a "Hero Supporter" category to recognize and appreciate those who actively engage in sharing circles by providing encouragement, thoughtful comments, and creating a supportive atmosphere. We will implement a similar nomination process for "Hero Supporters" to celebrate their valuable contributions to Sharing Circle sessions. We believe these changes will create a more inclusive and dynamic environment for everyone. We are excited to witness the amazing contributions of both our seasoned hosts and our rising stars. Let's join hands and make the Sharing Circle sessions [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=2_e900fbcbe5db2b7bSaBpz_hkdPa6dGxRZeleXg] and shares even better together. If you are interested, apply here to join the Sharing Circle Host Team! [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfPe2N1QUjB_KEFF_EhAtZymtydkkIFlruU7u0lC35q4eTztA/viewform]

Advertising Discussions
by vivelespatates
Last post
January 24th, 2023
...See more Hey, wonderful discussion leaders! We all want more participants in our discussion, of course, we work so hard for offering a great and supportive time for members! We have different ways to advertise them for getting more participants: - Set a alert for announce your discussion/support session/event! I'm sure if you ask in the listener support room, someone would do it for you! - Announce our discussion in the other rooms ! it's an excellent way too! - Adding them on the calendar, feed and/or forum. - etc. How announce when there are already some discussions ongoing? - Being respectful of other ongoing discussions or events! - If there is already an event ongoing on a room, please, don't announce over them. - If you are 10 minutes in advance, there are strong changes that the event on this room end when your start. You can avoid announcing right now on this room, remember what room is it, and come back in 10 minutes and announce later when their event is over and you start, with a message like "Hey, If you like discussions, we will have the next one on.... ", You will probably get even more members interested by discussions of this way! - You also can ask the leader of current discussions to advertise your discussion when their own discussion is over. I'm sure they will be happy to do it for you! Thank you for giving a nice and supportive time for your members, increase participation and being a model. Enjoy your discussions! ❤️

Please Help, I Don't Know Where to Turn!!!
by blueAngel00
Last post
December 16th, 2022
...See more This is rather complicated, so I apologize for that. I joined 7 Cups the end of November. I applied as a Listener a couple days ago and could subsequently log in as one. Now that option is no longer available. My application submission was very unorthodox (long story) and in between the submission fiasco and learning I could log in as a Listener, I requested a member name change. I had to request it through 7 Cups because apparently I tried to change it too close to my two week membership mark, and the system got confused or something and wouldn't let me, saying it was having technical difficulties. In any case, one of the names I requested was the same as what I put on the Listener application. It was granted, only 7 Cups added two zeros at the end of the name. There are so many more idiosyncracies in this scenario it's almost easier to believe I made it all up, but I didn't. What I need to know is who do I contact about all this? I don't mind reapplying, I just don't want 7 Cups to think I'm messing around with them or that I'm a lunatic or worse yet, kick me out of 7 Cups altogether. Can anyone please point me in the right direction of who and how I should contact about all this? I'll be forever in your debt, thanks. ❤️ And thank you for reading this far! 🌹 🐻 .

Value of a Group Chatroom
by
Last post
August 22nd, 2022
...See more A Group Chatroom at 7cups, I believe, has the motive of improving mental health, one way or the other. To serve that motive we have many chatroom discussions and events. We even have open-chat sessions where there is a host directing the talk to go in a specific direction. Those, I wholeheartedly believe, and could see, are having a good impact on participants' mental health. Those group chats have value. But I have had a question, and I have been struggling to answer it. So I am asking here. What is the value of a group chatroom where people are just chatting casually? There are many different talks happening at the same time in the chatroom. It is like a classroom with no teacher and each bench is having their own chatter. What's more, this kind of chatter goes on for 24 hours. There are moderators to ensure no site rules are broken, but that does not prevent the noisy chatter from happening. The impact of such maddening chatter could only be toxic, negative, and dark. Hope I was able to share my concern, and that you help me find an answer to my question.
