There are good ways to get people onboarded, and this is not one of them. If we want anyone, it's interested/ interesting people who will be of some benefit to the community.
I don't consider myself, or my own content neccessary or overly valuable, but I take Hive seriously and really enjoy it. I wouldn't like to see a bunch of new users posting once, shit posting, or just plagarising and publishing AI content.
I went and looked at the proposal and the five people he got on here, and looked at their posts and all I could wonder was, "Why didn't he get any of them to write introduction posts so they could let the community know who they are and what they're interested in."Even if they are real, clearly he's the wrong person to onboard new users. Not one of them even posted into a community.
That is a really great point. Also thank you because it reminded me of something that I thought was a little strange about one of @lasseehlers' replies.

What does @lasseehlers mean by he will "...check for AI content and that will be rejected. They have to deliver a real post (No plagiarizing or AI)."?
@lasseehlers claims in his proposal:
@lasseehlers won't give any details about how he plans to onboard "real people" on to Hive or why it costs $16 per "new user". I've asked and he outright refuses to give details about that.
From his reply I cited it seems like maybe he is finding random people and paying them $16 each to create a Hive account. A stipulation of being paid $16 might be that before they make a post for their new account they have to send it to @lasseehlers for his review and approval. His review and approval before the "new user" posts might be how he justifies the 4 HBD in compensation for each "new user" onboarded.
That might actually explain a few things. As you noted all those accounts @lasseehlers claims to have onboarded didn't post an introduction. Rather those accounts posted about LasseCash. Maybe another stipulation for the $16 is that the "new user" has to post about LasseCash before getting the $16 for creating a new Hive account.
Is that what @lasseehlers' proposal is boiled down? @lasseehlers wants the DHF ti give him 1000 HBD so he can pay 50 random people to create an account and each one makes at least one post about his token and then the "new user" can either continue using their account or piss off, @lasseehlers doesn't give a damn because the deal to create a new Hive account and post about LasseCash for "onboarding" is complete.
I hope that's not what he plans to do. Some people assume cryptocurrency is a scam and if @lasseehlers goes around paying random people to create an account and post about his token then of course that's going to look like Hive is a scam.
Actually yeah, so essentially he'll get some randomers on Hive, proofread their drivel, check for AI or plagiarism, and ensure that they only post about LasseCash and leave. I think it would be more beneficial for LasseCash, if he got some people who were actually interested in sticking around, and then get them involved properly here, and then get them involved in LasseCash of their own free will at a later stage.
Absolutely. The last thing Hive needs is a bad reputation. Hive as a whole does need new people, especially ones who can become solid members of the community. We don't need dead accounts, or people forced to come here for 16 HBD.
It's a good shout that you pointed this out, it's a terrible idea when looking at the ramifications of this sort of behavior. Based solely off his rep, I doubt he'll get the proposal funded, but it's good to spread the word when something like this is spotted.
By the look of it all, I doubt they're real people - but if they are I wonder where he's finding them haha - in all seriousness, I'd say it's all him and he is just going to pocket the 20 HBD for the hassle of signing up and writing a post.
People shouldn't be paid to join anyway, the payment should be in making the account and getting involved properly; just by being a normal person here, you can earn more than twenty HBD.
