Welcome to the Neoxian City weekly

Welcome folks to your weekly installment of what's going down in the City of Neoxian. If you haven't already, come in and join us in our discord to see what the latest is.

Watch out for our new server in the midst of censorship

In the words of Mr Dragon himself:

"Ok guys, this is important. I'm seriously considering leaving Discord for a more decentralized chat. So far the best candidate is called Element. https://www.element.io/

It is decentralized and open source, and features encrypted messaging. It has clients on android, apple and desktop (windows and Linux). I would encourage everyone to sign up and give this a try. My id there is Hive account@neoxian:matrix.org I created a city chat: #cityofneoxian:matrix.org

Please join up and check it out."

Change is Coming. Brace yourself.

Sadly, I, Hive account@raymondspeaks, was struck down with the coronavirus the day after Christmas. Because of this I haven't been able to lay out my plans for the coming year with Neoxian City. In fact it has left my mind very fuzzy and I've barely been able to keep up with anything.

That being said I am fully recovered now and will start with my very first plan that I wish to roll out on the city as from today.

Okay, so I liked the premise of the Citizen of the Month and I wanted to keep it. I realised that having anything automated wouldn't be best served to our great members. It will all be done manually.

So, from now on The citizen of the month will be a prestigous award. Something that badge-wearers can shine with pride. There will be scrupulous selection process and selectees will have to have met a couple of conditions.

These conditions are (but not limited to):

Number of giveaways in the city
Number of neoxag bought (and also staked)

There will be other motivators if a member goes above and beyond, but mostly these two conditions will be prime motivators.

So, since I have no way to work out this months buy/sell and stake Rota, it will be based on giveaways solely. But only for this month.

Well done Hive account@xawi - you have led the pack with the top amount of giveaways this month. You win citzen of the month, and:

50 BRO
100 Hive
1 Neox
10 HBD
10,000 (staked) Neoxag

This is a combination of gifts from myself and Mr Dragon.

Citizen of the Month will run from the 10th of each Month

Guild of Neoxian looking for new members

In the words of Mr Dragon himself,

"Had to kick two people out of the guild, they are still posting on Steem. I will not tolerate that. I'll take this as far as I need to go. If I have to shut the guild down, shut the city down, then I will do it."

delegate your workerbee to Hive account@neoxianminer.

Neox

Please delegate your WORKERBEE to Hive account@neoxianminer if you would like to take part in our mining pool. The aim of this mining pool is to mine BEE whilst earning a little for the neoxian burn fund.

With the burn fund we will then buy back neoxag from the market and burn it.

You can use tip.cc as per usual now. Neoxag is safe to deposit and tip

After several days of hard work from mr Dragon and the tip.cc team, the neoxag tipping function is ready to go. You may deposit and tip as much (or as little) as you like.

Hive account@neoxiancityvb is back up.

You may use Hive account@neoxiancityvb again at it seems to be working.

MASSIVE MINETEST UPDATE

For those of you that have enjoyed playing in the minetest server then I have some good news for you. I will be hiding treasure and lots of it. Over the next few months I will be hiding neoxag, BRO, BEE, SIM, all over the minetest server. If you want to take part in the treasure hunts then you may check how to join below.

I will announce when this will be ready in the coming days - please check Hive account@brofund for updates.

Our Minetest server is up and running and ready to play. You may build whatever you want, when you want. Think of this as your own slice of the city.

You can join by downloading the version 5.3.0 client from https://www.minetest.net/

Once downloaded, open the zip file and your client should be in the "bin" folder. Load this up and connect to the server ip which is: 212.115.108.147 on port 30000

Have fun!

Our Neoxian City School is now officially open to citizens

Want to learn to write better? How about kicking ass on Discord? Maybe you just want a few tips and tricks on something or other. Whatever your splice of thought I'm sure we have it at the school.

You have to be a citizen or over. This is top grade education stuff that you would otherwise have to pay for. Free, in our awesome city.

Please also ask for tutorials. It's better if I have an idea what you want rather than stabbing in the dark.

Enjoy :)

We are one of the most active discords on Hive!!

Neoxian City is one of the most active Discords on Hive from what I have personally observed, and what other people keep telling me. We are active for the most part all around the clock. Our residents span from Australia right over to California; so our timezones cover a massive 21 hours!

Come in and say hi -- we don't bite :)

Where do you fit into the City of Neoxian?

A lot of people come here and get sucked into the friendliness of our server. Some people want to take on roles in the city, others just want to chat and have a good time. There's nothing wrong with either!

What we haven't seen many of though is those wanting to create new roles and responsibilities for themselves in Neoxian City. Our Dragonmaster Neoxian is always open to new ideas.

Do you have a special talent? Let us see! Come in and see if you can do something for us -- we encourage growth here. What benefits us, also benefits you.

We have already started a School, A minetest server, A banking service, games, and so much more.

What can you bring to us?

Curation Station!

Our curators regularly scour the whole of Neoxian to find the best and sometimes most undervalued work to send into planetary orbit with our humungous weighted curation trail. If you observe our tribe we have one of the best trending pages and that is because our administration team weight the trail down with their HUGE votes.

These are our picks:

Please note: We only support original content here.We will exact vengeance with extreme prejudice on plagiarists and spammers. So we want to see you unleash that creativity of yours. When you create you get better at what you do. When you plagiarise it is a wasted effort, and we don't like wastefulness or laziness here.

We also take our tags seriously. So please try and use the relevant tags as we will only vote on those with them. We won't be voting a picture of your cat with SPT for example. SPT is for Steemonsters.

Our best picks of the week will be featured on our weekly newspaper highlights.
