The Man Cave | A New Social Community + New Coin Coming!
Welcome to The Man Cave
Yes you heard it right! It is called The Man Cave for a reason but before I continue to share with you this awesome new 2 week old community that I'm in, I would like to state that this social community is open to all genders and is not narrowed in to only males. In fact, we appreciate women who are looking to just socialize/contribute in the community and a women's perspective of things for men is also a very important thing. At the end of the day, this world doesn't just consist of men.
What Do We Do?
For starters, we are open to everyone! We are a social community in efforts to empower men. Where men can just come in and be themselves.
Why don't we focus on women as well? Well, first of all, maybe because we are not women and also mainly because when we focus and pinpoint a specific niche more deeply, there is where you'll find growth and hidden gems. We do also allow women as I've mentioned earlier because we really appreciate everyone who wants to be part of this community and share their thoughts and values. Every contribution is valuable to us.
In The Man Cave, we would have many channels that encourage growth and participation. There are already several members in the community contributing their specific skillsets like fishing, cooking and many more. But if you're looking just to chill and relax, kick your feet up with a pint of beer, by all means, we have the lounge, beer, BBQ section and many more where you can indulge yourself in chats.
The main aim is so that men can gather and empower one another.
My Gratitude
It is really my honour and privilege when @raymondspeaks invited me to join this community. I was invited about 3 weeks ago when the community just only started but only came into it 2 weeks ago. being swamped with work and all, I missed the invitation link from him previously.
The Man Cave is the brainchild of @raymondspeaks. An amazing, humble and genuine guy I've met on Steemit through the @steemitbloggers community. He runs multiple community projects and owns his own magazine and a team of writers under him. That being said, I know and believe that whatever he puts his hands on, will grow and succeed.
Not long after that, I was stoked because @raymondspeaks invited me to be part of his core development team for the community. I totally agree with him when he said that, 'a community cannot be built alone' and he is right. Over my 8 months time on Steemit, I've experienced and helped build communities over this span and have always encourage that the community be built with a team. I always encourage that the team leverage one another with individual strength covering each other's weaknesses.
Contribute & Earns SBDs
For now, when you level up by engaging in the community channel, you'll receive rewards for being active! These rewards are given out by @raymondspeaks and as we expand our Man Cave Rewardpool we hope to give out more reward/incentives in the future.
As the community is only 3 weeks in, we are constantly looking for Steemians who can contribute in a specific niche. For example, Art, psychology and whatever you think you would want to contribute. When you get into the server, just leave @raymondspeaks or me a DM and we'll get you sorted out. Oh and contributors will get paid when our new coin is launched.
We are planning to hold weekly contests as well and you can definitely earn SBDs from there. In the long run, who knows that we might even have our own talk show and what not.
Our New Coin!
I'm just as excited as you are! Having the backing from the #whaleshares platform, The Man Cave will launch it's own coin under the #whaleshares platform. With this, we are able to reward more and more activities planned out to give out these tokens.
For now, we have only begun building and developing the server, so give us some time till the coin is launch. Then we will definitely plan out a reward system for everyone who contributes, engage, host or for just being awesome. :)
Come Join Us!
If you haven't followed us, do give us a follow @mancave for latest updates, contests and awesomeness. And if reading this has sparked any interest at all, I would love to extend my offer to you to come join us in The Man Cave.

Awesome initiative gents. If I get a little extra time I will definitely try and join you over in the man cave
@jasonshick! Come on over bro! Would love to have you in The Man Cave :D
Good job @zord189 buddy and congrats to @raymondspeaks to the setting up of @mancave.
I do see one crack in the foundation though; the open invite to women to join. While I do agree that both sexes do indeed compliment each other, both sexes are made to be distinctly different.
This is most apparent where you might have a group of men discussing things openly e.g. the hot dates they have just had what they did after. The moment a woman walks in, the discussion awkwardly changes direction. The point is men will be open in a woman free zone.
You won't find women inviting men to the washroom when they go with their buddies to have a private conversation. ;) And that's completely fine.
Good point! But I've always been a fan of openness, truth and honesty. If you can't share your whole self in the open what type of man are you? :) Are you lying to others, or yourself? :)
Hahaha, are you're trying to use the emotional argument here to imply that
It is your forum man, so of course you have the option to run it any which way you choose.
However, note that there is always a price to openness. It means that you will need a very strong community to guide the direction of the forum or risk it being invaded by foreign elements.
Historically speaking, there is hardly any forum / group of humans that has survived being completely open from day one without first being strong. The native Indians were open initial Europeans and were wiped out long before the USA as a country was formed.
Any society must first have a very strong governance, working-culture and direction first before it opens up to "outsiders". This usually takes some time e.g. 1 year. Even then these new "outsides" should only allowed in at very low rates (say 5% of total population per quarter). Sudden high influx of any foreign elements will quickly disrupt and overrun the group/forum.
Honoured to have you say nice things about me my friend :)
this is so cool. i i guess my niche that i wanna share on the man cave is pick up lines. hehe. will join the group bro
Hehe welcome to the group bro :D

Wow interesting! Will let you know if I'm joining
Wow. Finally its on. Great job @raymondspeaks and thank you for the detail info bro
Proud to be a member of the Man Cave. Thanks for making it happen @raymondspeaks and @zord189.
Sounds interesting. I only wonder why you chose for the discrimination based on being male or female?
You’re inviting women too. Won’t they be empowered too?
Equal rights, equal priviliges, equal treatment??
