Sequence to my article "The dominance of the Philippines in read.cash Communities" the reactions received triggered the idea for this article. From the comments generated on that article, a lot of users were of the opinion that having multitudes of fellow Country men in one Community could do more harm than good to read.cash.

Here, i want us to deal with the issue critically. Though i commended the Philippines for their job in referring their fellow Country men to read.cash, i know that this may not translate to success for this platform. I said may not, not will not.

Looking at it from a vantage point, i will like to throw a question here. IS IT RIGHT TO CREATE COMMUNITY FOR NATIVES?

My submissions

Positive effects

I like to deal with the positive effects of having nationals or native Communities in read.cash first before looking at the other side of the coin.

• Joining a native Community gives a feeling of belonging. It makes one feels as though you are at home with your people.

• It helps to quickly adapt to the system. By interacting with people of your nativity you quickly understand what you should do to adapt.

• Recieving guidance and encouragement. You can get guidance from your fellow country men and be encouraged directly through the comment section.

• Ability to publish in your native language. We cannot blame anyone who doesn't speak nor understand English. With a community of your natives you can publish your post in your local language and gain readership and engagement.

Negative effects

• Limitation in knowledge. The knowledge base of having a native community is restricted to only what your country men can offer. This hinders a person from expanding his or her knowledge horizon.

• Accepting below quality articles. There is a probability to accept any article without due consideration in terms of quality.

• Increasing spamming. Spamming can go uncontrolled in a native community. With the ability to publish in a native language, people can translate others work and republish them without being cought. Spamming rains freely in such communities.

• Forming upvote rings. This is the most devastating effects of the natives Communities. Abused on the upvote system has led to many changes on the upvote rules. This kind of practice is deflauding the raed.cash fund.

• Abuse on the platform. A native community can become a dumping site for garbage contents. Where anything is allowed such community is like a dump site, and thus abusive to read.cash

• Moderators compromise. Moderators in a native community can easily be compromise. The feeling that we are of the same country or tribes can easily leads to compromise.

The above are my own submissions about the natives Communities. You can add your submission in the comment box.
