It's a nice sentiment, and your offer is certainly reasonable compared to what is available elsewhere in the coaching market, perhaps just not the demand on Blonde.

There's probably less complicated ways of giving something back to the Blonde community!

I guess my brain just works differently to others.My point of view was I was trying to be helpful by offering to give up some of my time without looking for anything in return to offer someone the chance to make a decent amount playing and thought it would be good to give a side interest for Blonde with the possibility of future staking.I guess it doesn't matter to the person whether the money went to me or Blonde so I can see people's point but my intentions where genuine to try and do something good for the forum but I guess people don't see it like that so fair enough.If you wanted coaching from elsewhere you'd have to give up more of a % only the coach would be making money.I've been asked by multiple sources if I'd do coaching and I said no as I wasn't interested,I just thought this was a good idea.

The offer is there and imo it's a good offer for someone so I won't be changing the terms.


It is a decent offer from yourself, ignore those that say do it for free, maybe they don't realise what you are giving away here.
If I had the time to put the volume in I would be interested myself.

I only put ask longy as he can probably give you some pointers on who he may feel will be the better prospects.

Thanks and much appreciated.Since I'm personally getting nothing from it and I'm giving away time plus strategy tips to play in the games I make my living from then I thought it was a decent offer.Maybe the conflicting idea of looking to give something back/want something for it maybe narks people even if that is also for Blonde.I think James nailed it on the head with the fact there just isn't that many people on Blonde who want to put in a decent amount of time/volume that don't already do so themselves.

There's also a good few who would be more than happy to put in the time and volume for what you're offering, but don't have the funds to get started. 

It's a catch 22.  The ones who have it are already doing it.  The ones who don't have would love to but can't.

Waiting to finalise everything with the person I picked.That person wants to keep things private so there won't be any updates but once everythings agreed I will put up what's happening for the % for Blonde and will be pm'ing a mod so they know of the details.
