Finder Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) 1. Implement a "yes" button among the other reactions. It's only convenient when I can confirm sth that someone else is asking everyone on the thread with one click, instead of making a separate post (unless it offers details or sth). E.g. someone may ask sth like "has anyone else seen this or that in such and such location today or has anyone else had such and such tech issue/was not able to open this or that page/access a site or has anyone else experienced (any sensation of this kind) lately?, etc.- To react with "like" would be inappropriate in this case. A short and quick "yes answer" option would be great! 1.a) To have a reaction button that says someone's reply is a 100% unrelated to the original comment. e.g. Comment 1: walking in the forest/nature was a joyful and inspirational experience. Reply: nasa will never acknowledge the fake moon landing. Believe it or not, I spotted a few replies of this kind on the previous and current forum versions. 2. Definitely be provided with at least 24 hours editing option. Or an option that allows the user to choose how much time they give themselves (or maybe based of reputation?) to add sth or slightly reword what they have posted... or add a pic or a video. I do agree with others here who anticipate this maybe used in the wrong way. Well, then there could be 1 condition made for such option to be still available: if someone has already quoted the original post, maybe only minor changes can be made to it. Anyway, this like a knife that can be used in a good or bad way. To take into acc only the bad side is also incorrect. I-net is a dangerous thing too apart from all the advantages it offers, there should be a sensible balance between trust and control. It really depends on who is on the forum. 3. "Read only threads" that someone just mentioned is a great idea. Sth. like a reference/library resource. Or sth that you started and want to develop/explore, information wise. 4. An option for a member who starts a new topic to decide from the very start whether they want people to reply and chat or they only want others to join resources and post all the relevant to the topic info. 5. I would suggest to have 2 major sections of the forum in terms of info topics. 1) Consciousness, Perception, Awareness 2) Political & 3d Reality (On & Behind the Scene). Maybe we could vote or have a core management team to decide what's most appropriate, someone else on the now unavailable forum suggested sth similar to such branching. My branch name suggestion is slightly different, but I think it makes sense because different ppl gravitate more to one of these 2 topics and I think it would be more convenient for others to have these two topics separated, not mixed. 6. I don't mean it as punishment, but I have noticed there is a number of specific members who repeatedly derail other members topics. And that's not nice, because they basically take over someone else's thread, plus it confuses the readers. So, to somehow make such members aware- and those are mostly the same people, each and every time, maybe we can publicly flag/warn them/their actions so they will develop a better awareness of their behaviour in this particular regard? And it may also simplify the mods job))). E.g. you may see how "Shill Tactics" thread somehow ended up with DARPA technology +video, Flat Earth & chemtrails. I am not mentioning what happened to this thread and its original topic.... 7. Create a separate pinned section where all usual and unusual tech issues and glitches can be reported and promptly dealt with. This section could be checked on a regular basis by say, a webmaster or you or some other admin capable of addressing those issues. 8. Have a separate, pinned thread for questions to the site management. This implies that, like Grumpy O. has already suggested that the management would be more engaged and involved into what's happening here. We had a question section in the previous version of the forum, but we really need two, one for tech stuff, one for communication with the management, assuming that the section would be visited by the management and questions be answered.

Tinfoil Hat Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 (edited) When Sanctum Zone was on the go, we had a Swap Shop type thread that I thought was good. So if you had stuff to get rid of (no, not weed) you could put details on it and say the type of thing you would be prepared to swap it for - or you could just donate free of charge if you felt like it, and agree between you who would pay the postage cost if required. Books is a good example of that, as you could often sort out a straight swap and each pay the postage out for them. I don't know if anyone would be interested here? *Edit* The transactions would need to be with people you're comfortable trading postal addresses with via PM. Not just any old axe murdering muppet who appears for the 1st time. Edited June 1, 2020 by Tinfoil Hat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitochondrial Eve Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Some of my thoughts have already been posted, namely: upping the reaction limit, a members only section and private threads. I also loved KillBill's suggestion that Bitchute videos should embed. In addition, I would like to suggest: An ancient / hidden history subforum. Regarding the reaction limit, I think 20 would be better. No upper limit on the number of members that can be added to a group PM. Migrating existing profiles over including post count. I personally dislike the leaderboard (this may not be popular with other members). I think the forum should be about focused on exchanging ideas as opposed to your typical social media popularity dopamine hit. I think the Ickes should also mention the forum on videos / podcasts in order to try and grow the forum membership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No leaderboard, but the post total versus reactions can give some idea of members if you haven't engaged in discussion with them before..

This is the first forum I've ever been on in a meaningful manner, could have done with a sort of "procedures manual" ie warning some people are trolls/shills/ here derailing and what it is don't trust basket case that sort of thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bflat Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 2 hours ago, GarethIcke said: The new forum is very nearly complete. The new davidicke.com will go live today and so all focus then moves to getting the new forum live. New webmaster has asked me if there are any functions that are important to you guys. If you have anything you really want the new forum to be able to do, drop it in here and I'll pass it on. He reckons it can all be implemented and live by the end of the week, so hopefully that will be a nice bit of news for everyone, after what has been a complete ball ache few weeks. Not sure if mentioned, but numbering the posts would be helpful. When people keep asking the same questions over and over you can easily send them to a specific post.
