I think the biggest issue is the unknown factor of just hiring a marketing team. To me there are two proposals here. The adding the hive mention and further supporting of integrating hive awareness more into the game and then later once things are figured out and the onboarding is fixed to then ask for a marketing budget. That's just my opinion on how I see it from what others are saying.

I'd rather see a DHF proposal for this section "Promoting Hive" and help build some funding to help cover costs. Would have been more more well received to pass. However being a Splinterlands player, investor (outside of the board) and knowing what's going on I feel like I see more then what none Hive players would see so I can understand the confusion and the doubt with the current proposal. That being said I support the current proposal because I believe in the company and that they will bring more value then what is being asked and IMO that's worth my vote.
