It's My Party and I'll Cry If I Want To
I believe that communities can and probably will be the driving force behind the growth of hive that we all want to see.
I believe that communities will need to be organized on the second level of the blockchain. The ideas I have reflect that.

1: I think there should be a cost to a community. People do much better with each other when they have some skin in the game. It makes people have a certain amount of respect for the community and gives the community leaders some investment to protect.
I'm not just completely sure that the 'cost' needs to be money but some sort of obligation to the chain.
2: I think any community that wants to organize and be part of the chain should be able to. If Q-Anon wants to move to Hive they should be allowed to. Muting and moderating will need to be bulletproof for this to work and it would have to work both ways. If, say, a Q-Anon member wanted a larger audience and published her drivel in an open blogging community there should be a method and means to remove the offending post AND have there be repercussions to the writer. Cost.
3: I don't think communities should necessarily be all about scale. Family sized communities to mega communities. Would play a part in what the 2nd level coins would function like.
I'd love to see a real time chat function (that would go away after a period of time-not chain based). I could envision communities that have single photo posts as the norm.
I know. That's really 4. My momma always said "under promise and over produce". Or something like that.
I would very much like to see what @bozz, @tarazkp and @galenkp have to say about communities and what they can and should be.
