The gaming industry is not just about the games we play but also about the vibrant communities that form around them. These communities are often the unsung heroes of the gaming world, providing spaces for gamers to connect, discuss, and share their experiences.
The leaders of these communities work tirelessly behind the scenes to manage and grow these digital realms, spending their personal time and money without any compensation. Recognizing the importance of these community leaders, we are thrilled to announce the launch of the “Gaming Admins” Discord Community, an initiative by Jesper aka Flokie, one of our partners and the owner of the official VALORANT Discord community.
A Meeting Ground for the Minds Behind the Screens
Empowering communities is one of Gankster’s core values. So when Flokie came to us with the idea and told us about the hardships growing his community to more than 1.5M members, we knew it’s something that we want to stand behind.
That’s why we’ve decided to sponsor his efforts as well as allocate a $50K fund for initiatives of the community leaders, from graphic design, cross community events, moderation, bot development and more.
Uniting Community Leaders
At the core of the Gaming Admins community is the spirit of collaboration. This new server is designed as a central hub where admins from various gaming communities can come together to exchange ideas, strategies, and insights.
Here’s what our members can expect to find in the community:
Mentorship and Growth
Navigating the complexities of community management can be daunting. That's where mentorship comes in. Seasoned admins like Flokie will be part of this Discord server, offering guidance and mentorship to both new and experienced community leaders. Admins can learn how to foster engaging and healthy environments for their members.
Knowledge Transfer and Resources
We believe that knowledge should be shared. The community will host a plethora of resources, from community management best practices to dealing with conflict resolution and moderation. Community management veterans will offer direct support to those who need it. Admins can pose questions, present scenarios, and receive advice on challenges they’re facing.
Networking and Partnerships
Networking is invaluable in the world of gaming. This community will serve as a networking powerhouse, connecting admins across different games and platforms. These connections can lead to exciting collaborations and partnerships, expanding the reach and impact of each community involved.
Sponsorship Opportunities
As a sponsor of the Gaming Admins Discord Community, we are committed to facilitating connections that can lead to sponsorship opportunities for your communities. Members will be able to help each other take the first steps towards meaningful partnerships.
Gankster's $50K Community Fund
Members of the community will be eligible to apply for part of our community fund to support initiatives for their members or improve various aspects of their community.
