Hey guys just a couple quick updates going into next week:

1. Discord Update: thanks for your patience while we worked on and played with our new community support agents. Ive fine-tuned the experience so going forward they should assist the community but not get in our way. They both have a wealth of knowledge about TMNT and the project and can assist new members as well as acting as a sort of one-of-a-kind interactive TMNT encyclopedia. Ive limited their involvement to only speaking when spoken to, and the more advanced of our bots (Mikey) will answer questions if no one else answers them for a period of time. Overall you'll see less of them going forward unless you interact with them, they are both designed to automate a lot of the onboarding process and watch over the chats for unattended new users and be a sort of TMNT Oracle, as they work with over 3000 TMNT articles from hundreds of sources in their knowldge base. Feel free to test them out!

2. We start our brand new schedule with our all new shows this week! Monday will be a lot like the pop ups weve been having but Tuesday is our issue 300 rip and ship show and thursday is our first show from jetpack comics! I hope to see all you dudes this week to show Jetpack what an awesome community we have!

Cant wait to hang out with you guys this week and get back into the swing of things! I hope you all had an awesome weekend and ill see you during our live show tomorrow!

Just a few quick updates today.

1. Ive officially launched our new schedule! Visit our whatnot profile by clicking the link below and bookmark as many as you can, its going to be a wild summer! Ive scheduled us out until 12/31 so expect to get back to our regular 3+ shows a week starting next week. Our shows run on Mondays (TMNT & Chill), Thursdays (Live from Jetpack Comics), and Saturdays (TMNT & Chill). I am also planning to reserve one pop up show a week which will probably land on friday nights, but we'll effectively have 3 acheduled and 1 floating shows per week. The schedule is up through the end of the year so be sure to bookmark as many as you can!

2. After the successful rollout of our community support agents bringing my vision for a safe, active, friendly, and automated TMNT server to completion im working on some different growth strategies for the community. You wont see a ton of new features going forward and ill be working to scale back my overkill work from the past two months and provide a sleeker and simpler community experience going forward, no more daily text-walls I promise, we just had to get through this growth period and we have! With that said ive decided to test some new advertising angles on top of our Discord marketing campaigns this week. I hopped on fiver and tossed a few bucks to some gamer girlies to promote our community. I thought that might be fun to see how effective that is, just one of the ways our #💥vip-access💥 funds are going right back into project growth 🙂

Hope everyone is having a great week. I know the updates were fast and furious this week but expect things to start to level off soon as my work laying our community foundations has neared completion with the last phase being Discord automation, which as of yesterday is now complete. From here we will coast on the platforms weve built and grown and focus on selling some funny books to push ou4 growth to even higher heights.

Thanks dudes!

Had another late night project last night and before I knew it its 4am 😭

Regardless, behold our communities new friend, assistant, and supporter. Ive created <@​&1526864063555047454> as a general AI assistant to the community (just tag or reply to her to get her attention). She is a little more free roaming than our other AI Characters, you can interact with her in most Turtle Lair channels, she'll also randomly engage in conversation she finds interesting so dont be alarmed when smoking hot Megan Fox joins in your conversation and starts randomly assisting you, there'll be no need to thank me. Shes been trained to be an expert on our project and community so she will be able to assist new members in the absence of our regular members and she should prove useful in assisting with any general questions ir concerns. Ill create some language to point new members to her to ask her for help or to answer any questions that new incoming members may have. She should be able to address most general questions about the project, community, and our goals and provide information on the server rules and topics.

Anyway dont be alarmed, I made myself a Megan Fox bot to provide me general assistance and by extension assistance to the community. Shes a free spirit so expect to see her around the Turtle Lair chats from time to time going forward. Thanks guys, love ya!

VIP's just got a pretty killer sneak peek but this update is for everyone. Rip or ship shows return to lookin4tmnt next TUESDAY! Celebrate this event with us and LET'S RIP!

Last notification for a while. I promise 🙂

Just noticed we're already up to 5 followers. Thanks so much to everyone helping out with this i think we can really take advantage of this platform.

That said if you wouldn't mind giving us a "vote" (right next to the follow button) that will further benefit us by moving us up the "most voted" list, we only need 8 to be on top!

Thank you thank you guys, it means a lot that I can call on the community like this and we can band together to make this whole thing more fun for all of us. Alright thats it! Promise!

Quick ask sorry for the notification but weve had a few updates for you to check out over the last day or so, so scroll up after reading!

Im putting out a call for help from the community to advertise on a new social network dedicated to communities that im trying out for us. What im asking is quick and easy, follow the link and vote for our community. The reason im asking is the platform is so new that the top community only has 7 votes, which means if im correct and we can get 8, we'll be the top listed community on the site which will help both our SEO and general visibility.

Here's the link, thanks in advance for the help guys, little stuff like this goes a long way!

Follow up heads up regarding the #🔉promote-other channel - you may notice ads for other discord servers posted by @Promy from time to time there and more regularly in the #commercials channel. We are not generating revenue from these ads, instead, our server is promoted in exchange in other servers. We're just testing it out, ill track its performance alongside the other @Server tools and will begin cutting the underperforming tools next month, this will go for the security bots as well, we'll be scaling back redundancies in our security system next month to hopefully further streamline our suite of apps running in the server. Thanks to everyone for your patience and understanding while I built this out to be the best it can be to accommodate a larger community in the long run.

Oh and I added some new emojis more to come

I know we have a special travel journal channel in the VIP section but wanted to give a full server-wide update. I made it to our new location in New Hampshire and will be spending the next week or so planning the next era of lookin4tmnt with a relaunch set to happen within the next two weeks. We may end up with different show dates and times going forward so keep an eye out for the new schedule. Once shows are scheduled our regular weekly Discord #🎉giveaways will resume with some cool new twists. Thanks again for your patience while we make this transition and I cant wait to get back to hanging out with you guys during our new live shows that will he like nothing else on WhatNot. Hope everyone is doing well and its awesome to see you guys hanging out and using the server even when im away, thanks for that i am happy to provide you guys a place to TMNT & Chill even when im not live. More updates to follow soon!

As an added security measure i have disabled DM's for the server. This will help prevent scammers from direct messaging our members with scam links. If you want to DM a member, send them a friend request first, once you are friends youll be able to DM. That said never accept a friend request from someone you do not know. Always feel free to tag a member in #🗨general and ask why they sent a friend request, if they do not answer it was likely a scam. If they do answer with something shady notify me immediately or use the report button in #🚨turtle-trap🚨 and the mods or myself will handle the issue. Once again this shouldn't affect your experience here in the server but this measure will further protect everyone from scams and scammers.
