Community Directory: Discover Upland Communities
Upland’s core tenets of “Play,” “Earn,” and “Connect” carry significant influence on how we develop and expand the Upland ecosystem. Although we have made huge strides regarding the “Play” and “Earn” pillars, we recognize a need to better support the “Connect” pillar. As a result, we are excited to announce the launch of the Community Directory on the Upland website, which will serve as a hub for Uplanders to discover the amazing communities that are driven by a shared passion for Upland!
What is the Community Directory?
Simply speaking, the directory is a living web page that will act as a central hub where players can discover communities with various interests and goals, including data and analytics, strategy, nodes (neighborhoods/cities), trading, and networking. Communities listed in the directory have been vetted and approved by the Upland team to ensure that each community is safe for our fellow community members.
Players viewing the directory can browse communities by category, view a brief description, and join each community via a website or Discord link. Please note that the current list of communities is not (and never will be) final. This is a living web page that will change and grow over time to support the diverse set of communities dedicated to the Upland metaverse.
Upland is a dynamic platform that is constantly growing to support a wide variety of players, gamers, and communities. Our goal is to make Upland a place where like-minded individuals can connect, grow, and earn together. The directory is a huge step forward in connecting players through the discovery of the communities that meet their needs and interests.
Listing a Community
Have a dedicated community that’s looking to grow? We’d love to hear from you!
If you’d like to have your community listed on the community directory, you can apply via the link listed below. Each community is evaluated on a case-by-case basis and is subject to approval from the community team.
Apply for the Community Directory
Note: Players who have already applied to the directory should have received an email regarding their application status. If you did not receive an email, please contact one of our community managers in Discord.
Eligibility Requirements
You guys spoke, and we listened! Previously, we communicated some baseline requirements for listing, however, we have decided to waive these requirements as we felt they were too restrictive and lacked context. Instead, each community will be evaluated with the following questions in mind:
- Is the community active and engaged?
- Is the community driven by Upland-related content?
- Is the community safe for our fellow Uplanders?
- Is the community open and accessible?
This new framework should allow for broader participation and inclusivity for all types of communities.
Thank you all once again for inspiring us every day with your passion for Upland. We’re looking forward to seeing how you all connect using the Directory!
