  1. Delete off topic posts. Most of the replies to this post are irrelevant to improving the site.
  2. Provide a facility for reporting functional problems (bugs) in site function.
  3. I'd be interested in an "About" page which reveals the funding sources that support the IDW community.

Use contact form for bug reports. Working on bio for the non profit behind this site. Me.

@Admin Maybe add the bug report process to the welcome pages?

An author of a post should not be able to 'Like' their own post.
Kinda of assumed already, having taken the time to post it, isn't it?

They’re not counted for likes.

I am a conservative in Australia. I have always been accepting, open-minded, optimistic etc etc...I was also uninformed. Of late, the more I see and read, the more I realise how corrupt our msm, politicians have become. I thought the NWO was a conspiracy theory by nut jobs but the more I educate myself, the more I realise what a dangerous situation the western world is in. If we don't start bucking the system, the worse situation we will find ourselves in. I was one that was flabbergasted when Trump was voted in....why would Americans vote for that egotistical, arrogant man? After all, everything is good, isnt it? Its only over the past 2-3 years I have realisied the implications of listening to the msm, with its hidden agendas such as open borders and the cost...countries losing their identity; increased violence and crime; the abolition of free speech; the increase of far leftist groups such as Antifa and now Extinction Rebellion whose actual agenda is the abolition of capitalism to be replaced by socialism/communism; the attempt to dismantle our Christian society ... chaos. The fact people voted for politicians like Trump, Scott Morrison, Boris Johnson shows an attempt by the general populations to fight back and fight we must. My daily listenings now are middle right conservative speakers...Alan Jones, Andrew Bolt, Ben Shappiro, Tommy Robinson, Imam Tawhidi, Boris, Trump, ScoMo, Jordan Peterson etc etc. They are the only ones who make any sense anymore and are our only hope.

Welcome!

How about a page that encourages debate on specific controversial subject matter? Could the format be changed from the Post and Comment format to a Debate Question above and Pro, Con, and Alt columns where each Argument (or non-argument in the Alt column) is moved to the top of the list based upon votes. I don't trust voting, but some method of raising to the top the best (adaptation, improvement) would help to judge the relative quality of the answers to the questions proposed.

Example
Is voting in Electoral Politics Democratic?
Pro: It is the only way - Con: It is unfortunately the only way - Alt: One of the first Democracies are on record against Electoral Politics because Electoral Politics lead to Oligarchy

Good idea. For now, just post a question with a pro or con leaving.

Totally agree as the MSM says we are a democracy when we are actually a representative republic.

@Admin I posted an example question. I posted not only a pro, but also a con, and also a Free Market Adaptive Alternative to Divided and Conquer (the default). Now you suggest that I do that again? My response is: Where? Where do you want me to "For now, just post a question with a pro or con leaving." ? Also, what it is meant with the word choice "leaving" in the above quote from Admin? Where am I leaving to or from?

@cisco22 Unfortunately the word republic has also been counterfeited from the original meaning. A republic is one if it is The Public Thing (res-publica), but if it (the government) is for special interests, such as an oligarchy, or corporatocracy, or any segment, division, majority, minority, other than the Public (the whole people as one), then it (the government) is not a republic. Representation in the original respublica (in America before 1789) was ensured through common law trial by jury. That fact is confirmed in the records. The Public Thing (republic) was turned into the Special Interest Thing in 1789.

Do you have an app? I confess I haven’t looked for it. But if you do, maybe advertise it better on other social media.

At first glance, this site seems awfully big. Not particularly intimate. A little unwieldy ...

A good logo?

Yes we’ve an app. Thanks for the feedback.

For some reason pictures are not uploading except for the primary picture. I'm using a cell phone as I have not a computer at this time.

Will check. Could have been a temporary issue.

How do I log in to this site if I leave it? Download the app?

The mobile app is helpful.

This isn’t a suggestion or critique, only I haven’t received a confirmation email although I have asked to have one resent 3 times. Not sure what the problem is. Email address is correct. Not in my junk folder.

Putting dates on posts would be a start.

So far so good! I would like it to be an anti-facebook group. I'm so paranoid about posting online and would like to think that data isn't being collected to use against us.

I don't think my Shares on facebook or other places are being properly recorded.

They are not being shared correctly and it amounts to censorship.

@drptree Why do you say that?

The screen is way to cluttered. Remove at least 1/2 of the shown items and let individuals select what they see and want to review.

You could make it easier to browse through memes, zoomed in and one at a time by swiping on mobile.

On the group selection boxes it would be helpful if you could give a shot biog of the group leader and their interests

Well, here's my first post. Let's see how this progresses. Hopefully, no plants who are hardcore free speech will appear here. This should, if it works out, be a true (and truly rare) lyceum online.

De-priotitize posts already seen and scrolled past without interaction.

I seem to see the same postings over and over while looking for something interesting.

Thanks for having me!
I'll have to "Test Drive" this site before I can make any recommendations.

I’m a bit techno-challenged with the digital world, in some regards. How can I, or CAN I, place IDW on my devices as an icon/appp?

Go to one of the app stores online. Amazon, Google play store, one of them. Search for the IDW.community app. When it shows up, make sure you pick the right one, then hit install.

Is it possible to make the IDW app available on tablets (I-pad) which can't access the higher iOS levels ? I have an I-pad 3
Having some form of app ( if necessary of a lower order) enables me direct access via an icon or similar.
Please advise.

Would suggest just use your browser on the app to access this site. It's more flexible.

The apps available on Google play.

Pleas if you don’t mind, let me have some time to answer your questions.
