Hoping this site will attract young voters who need solid information - history, economics, virtue, and healthy relationships and recreation. Intellectual and spiritual growth require proper guidance and encouragement. Good conversation is essential in the human experience.

I think it would be hard for someone who is not already a fan of one of the main figures of the IDW to find a place on this site. I do not know how big your team is or what kind of resources you have, but perhaps some sort of video outlining each of the (biggest) IDW members' views (or a separate video for each one added to their bios) would help people to decide to join a group. And maybe the groups centered around specific people could be called something other than "fan" groups. I am part of a couple of such groups and I would not consider myself a fan of the figures, but I do like to see what kind of thought is going into the posts in these groups.

The site format should be akin to a Facebook clone. Not sure if you're going to get the traction you could with this model.

I am not likely to remember the name of this group but if I see posts from it in my feed I will be more active.

Having listened to Jordan Perterson and Ben Shapiro, for a man my age its is refreshing to hear that the whole world hasn't lost their collective minds, or is it us?

Hello. I am a Hispanic and agree with the conservatives views that I know. I live in Puerto Rico and lived in 4 different U.S. states. It really hurts me to see how my people are really dependent on the government and the government in here put many impediments for people to be self sufficient. It has turned slowly to a socialist island and people seems to think this is how the rest of the world is. There is no knowledge of what conservative ideas are even though the mayority of the country is Christian and Christianity is very well openly preached on the streets. I have found by talking to people in PR that many believe that the only party that is good is Democratic because if you are not a Democrat, then you don't believe in Democracy. I have found many people in conservative websites, claiming to be conservative that suggest with their comments that minorities are unimportant. I would like to know your opinion about this matter. I believe in less government control and in capitalism, although I agree with social programs that help the less fortunate, but I do not believe in healthy and capable people that are parasitic of others. I am a U.S. veteran and I believe if you served the U.S. country for one whole term, then you should be granted citizenship, but that is not the case, as I have seen with friends when I was in the military. Let me know your opinions as I do like to listen to other views.

There should be a message and it should read like this.

Welcome to The IDW Community. We humbly ask that you do not engage in trolling or shitposting. We do not threaten to censor you or ban you if you do decide to engage in these activities. We are simply asking that you do not. If (like us) you agree that there is little precious time to fine a solution to the empanding changes that threaten our civilisation (and make no mistake that is what we believe and what we are trying to do) then we are sure you agree the 100% of our energy must be dedicated to this task, this discipline.

Thank you in advance for adding to the discussion in good faith.

I am sure you guys could compose this with more eloquence.

Thanks for creating such a great platform for ideas to be addressed and discussed.

I am open minded and believe in individual liberty.

Do you have an app yet?

I just signed up a few minutes ago. I opened the email link to verify my account, but the idw page is telling me that it couldn't verify, and to try again.

I really want to get off Facebook. I hope this site can be free of sponsorship and shadow banning.

Hiring moderaters and staff? To lock topics, use banhammer on violators of rules, etc.

I used to be a moderator for a Yu-Gi-Oh forums called "Dueling Network". Other similar forums have admin roles by sections on a fourm(s) with general admin capabilities.

Share ways we can all get involved
Inform of bills they are trying to pass quietly that take away our rights and/or are immoral or against the Constitution, with the WH contact info and ways to fight it. Time to take back America!

Having listened, watched, and read hours of Jordan Peterson I can say that, if you think he is a dangerous alt-right zealot, you may need to reexamine your beliefs.

Like many others, I am still perusing the site to see what it holds for me. I have noticed most of the comments I am reading are written with some intellect behind them. What a refreshing thing to see. I hope to become an active participant in this experiment.

Let me get settled. I'm sure I'll have some insight soon.??

I worry most of all, about anonymity. I am media and on-line averse. I live a simple life; and, am old (almost 60) but I have a high IQ which makes me feel so enraged these days....at almost everything I am also, a conservative, and a Classical Liberal...so, my circle of friends is ever smaller with each month. I am very educated, ergo, the only reason I attempt to check this group out, is to see if it holds any value for me - I am happy alone - I am fine with my books, life, woods, animals.

Is there an App?

Keep the conversation open. This will be awesome. Different opinions, open conversations. No snowflakes.

We need an app for this .

As a new member, let me ask that things be simple, truthful, and timely.
Is there a feature to notify members of important and significant need to know information.?

I just joined, and I’m fiddling around trying to figure things out - very reddit feel as others have described. So far, I like the initial group prompts, but I feel like some of the posts are a few days old, and I feel left behind. I’d like to see newer, or “trending” on the site topics come up first (maybe this will get sorted out as I grow accustomed to the site). I was reading down a thread pretty far and visited someone’s profile; when I hit the back button it took me to the beginning of the thread, so I needed to scroll down for awhile to find where I left off. It’d be nice if that were fixed, but it’s not that big of a deal though. It’d be cool if trending/important Rogan, Peterson, Shapiro et al videos were uploaded daily - like a one stop shop for all your Peterson/Shapiro needs
I’m thrilled this platform FINALLY exists! Heck yeah, capitalism!

I love the place... the idea... the people are absolutely great.

just one thing .. Let's allow GiF Meme. they are fun to make.
That's my suggestion

FIrst and foremost, please de-clutter the page. I think there are many design patterns that I think could be incorporated to 'beautify' the page, but the first thing that jumped out to me was how busy my home page was when logging in. This was the first thing that jumped out at me.

Love the idea of the website though, and I am happy that something like this is being made! Looking forward to getting to know the community and site more!
