Alright, been getting 10 DMs a day about
@0xAlphaGEMs 💎
(and also daily DMs from current members asking me to invite people)
So let this post be the answer reference 📋
If you want to join GEMS, your chances go way up when people inside already know you and are willing to vouch for you 👈
If nobody knows you, then it's much harder 🔻
Not because we’re trying to be "exclusive" just for the sake of it.
But because GEMS was built on trust, familiarity, and family vibes, not random invites.
Less:
“hey, I’m new here” ❌
More:
“yooo, We met on X! We talked in spaces! in discord/telegram servers or private FnFs" ✅
That difference matters.
And another important thing: 👇
If you’re already deeply active in another community:
- showing up every day
- joining VC
- wearing their tag
- repping them in bio
- basically part of their home already
Then you’re probably not an ideal fit for GEMS ⛔️
Not because you’re bad.
Not because we don’t like you.
But because we don’t want to "steal" people who already have a home 🏠
We’d rather build with good people who are still looking for one "homeless, than pull active family members out of someone else’s house.
This isn’t Pokemon.
We don’t want to collect every server, every tag, and every high-value member.
Loyalty still matters. And it always will 💎
(Read the quoted post the reply for more info)
I don’t like to invite/accept:
→ People who are “team” in other groups.
I feel it’s not THAT ethical to “steal”
If you’re a team player, it means you’re a high-value asset.
And I have decent relationships with many founders.
So please don’t put me in a weird spot.
This isn’t Pokémon; you don’t need to be in every group.
Loyalty still matters. Ty for understanding.
