With the Alert emails, is it possible for the links in the email to go directly to the actual item instead of all of them going to the My Alerts page? If I've already cleared the alert and then see the alert email, I click the link in the email and am like, WTH? Just a minor annoyance thing... ...

Admin replies on Mar 31, 2019:

Hmmm... it was going there before. I'll put it on the list to check.

Is there a way to set our profile so that posts show up, instead of comments we've made?

I'll code it up next week's. It'll show up on the settings page.

Is there any way to create a mediator bot for civil debates? Like type your arguement, then basically have to wait your turn until your opponent can make their rebuttals, and vice versa? Just to maintain the flow and ensure both sides can make their fair arguments and rebuttals? Not a computer guy ...

That's an interesting idea. The current site is basically that but you make a post and the world jumps on it.

Not sure about the coins, seems odd. However I never give to charities I give only to real individuals in need.

Admin replies on Mar 29, 2019:

Yes, the coin program is a work in progress. We have the funding already for the donations but are using the coins as a way to tell us where to give it.

Well first I think it would help to give users a clear picture of what this platform is for. Is it just for discussion, or are their plans to change this to a movement in support of the IDW key speakers?

Please note that this post was originally flagged for the term "r*tarded buffoon". We do have a fairly strict civility guideline for no name calling a particular person and as we're a new site, I wanted to be safe. I asked AlbertaKim to edit that term. I realize that, while not the nicest of ...

Admin replies on Mar 29, 2019:

@HereNow Yep, I totally hear you on this one. That's why I wanted to make this public and use it as a group discussion. I made some modifications to our flagging policy to address this.

I am seeing a movement on this board that is disturbing.

Admin comments on Mar 29, 2019:

Thanks for the heads up. I do want to bring in more people with Left voices who are willing to engage in civil discussions with people with different world views. I have to hurry up with software to help balance the discussions and promote voices who bring kindness and humanization along with ...

Hi and thank you for the add. 1st question... Facebook can't censor us here correct? I'm tired of my posts of the truth being blocked, while the incredible lies and double standards and the hijacking of our country are going unchecked.

Admin replies on Mar 29, 2019:

Facebook can't censor here but they may decide to ban us from their site. We do want to encourage facts and opinions but also requiring members to always humanize their thoughts.

I'm working on our first newsletter and would love to get your ideas on what to put in it.

Georgesblogforum comments on Mar 28, 2019:

One thing I'm running into is that people panic when they see Dark Web . They fear that they will be hacked and their identities stolen . I've written many messages explaining that IDW is independent and outside the control of Google and Facebook .

Admin replies on Mar 29, 2019:

That's a good point. We found that over half of members have not heard of the idw term before and perhaps we should tone it down and explain that it's just a silly name.

With Facebook doing this, you may want to really get the word out. A lot of people want to get the hell away from Facebook. Just my suggestion. ...

Admin replies on Mar 29, 2019:

Yes, this action of Facebook is scary as it not only takes a swing at free speech but ii singles out only white activists. While I don't agree with many of the conclusions of the white nationalists, I am concerned that deplatforming will increase their sense of persecution which often results in undesired consequences.

Something we need to keep in mind while improving the site is the upvoting/like system. While browsing reddit you can obviously see if an idea doesn’t fit the general “correct” view I gets downvoted to the very bottom of the page where no one can see it. This site needs to be different. We ...

Yes, I'm working on a gray paper idea (see, it would be called a white paper but this being a dark web thing...) now that could use insights gained here to bring together cohorts of people who would have the most impact on each other in terms of understand counter arguments. Will put it in a newsletter.

I find that a posting with no description, just an image or YouTube link, is very annoying. You have to click it just to discover it's something of no interest.

Do you also miss the "blink" tag and music that would randomly play when you went to home pages? As you can tell by the design here, my designs tend to be a bit retro and feature heavy. I do want to add some more customizations but it often can make a community look hodge-podge. We'll look at the group header image next .
