Nouns

One Noun, every day, forever.

gifting folks with no prior record of action in governance nouns has proven to be unsuccessful

prop 542 - nouns to seth, eric, chris, neil
"Their participation in governance will have a significant impact on our community"
noun 336 - no votes :( 
noun 67 - 15 votes, 2 vwr
noun 774 - 6 votes, no vwrs
noun 69, no votes :(

prop 525 - noun to john hamon 
"If awarded noun 778, John is eager to participate in governance, expressing interest in delegating his Noun to community members who support creative initiatives." 
noun 778 - no votes :(

prop 521 - matt downey
noun 301 - 69 votes :), no vwrs :(
would still consider this a success though

prop 610 - lets play nouns 
noun 895 - 6 votes
noun 863 - 3 votes
noun 754 - 6 votes

Should we ask nouns and treasury funds parked in wallets for unrealized props back?

don't think I am the only person who holds this opinion but I suspect it may be the minority: gifted nouns can be treated like equity rather than a mandate to become an active member of governance. that being said, definitely should put it to work through delegation if you don't plan to vote.

agree with asking for funds back and probably should continue to name the people holding them for irresponsibly long times

Personally think its a bit bizarre that we say you only get Nouns if you vote with them, we want people to own Nouns for many many reasons governance, social signal, investment, patronage, access etc... I dont see why we should narrow the reasons for those rewarded/gifted via proposal.

agree that deleagation is the ideal for non voters. but also I dont think we should expect every noun controller to vote on every single proposal

I understand that take if the prop was specific about that, but I also think any sort of social pressure to "return" nouns to the treasury is just gonna be a lose-lose move.

💯% and personally see it the same as does not have to be only way to give noun but as everything should be specified in prop onchain, if in proposal is design for excellence in governance or being part of voting body shouldn’t it be measured with that metric and reclaimed if not aligned after time passes?
