I've talked with other mods and I am proposing the current changes I've implemented. I have changed the side bar from:
Warning: Some describe this as a "fringe" conspiracy forum. If you're afraid of the info you may encounter here, please confine yourself to Win's safe-space conspiracy forum, here.
Which oddly links to; c/GreatAwakening. Not sure why Clems did that, but, I don't like it, seems suspect. Further, not sure why they are trying to make out conspiracy theories as fringe or scary?
I replaced it with:
Conspiracies.win: This is a forum for free thinking and for discussing issues which have captured your imagination. Please respect other views and opinions, and keep an open mind. Our goal is to create a fairer and more transparent world for a better future.
and further outlined:
The Golden Rule: Be respectful. Attack the argument, not the person.
Thus, establishing the Ethos of this forum (set in stone). This was the Ethos I agreed upon when Axo made me a mod here first when we both were purged from Reddit. Me first, then him. Thank god for us creating Voat accounts back in the day. Still pissed some top mind took my original Putin_loves_cats original username here. Anwyays...
Clems had this as a general disclaimer:
Submissions of exceptionally low quality, trolling, spam, and those submissions determined to be intentionally misleading, may all be removed.
I built off this and replaced it with:
Disclaimer: Submissions/comments of exceptionally low quality, trolling, stalking, spam, and those submissions/comments determined to be intentionally misleading, calls to violence and/or abuse of other users here, may all be removed at moderator's discretion.
This is what I propose to the community and other mods here (ie. Axo, me, and Clems). The sidebar can always be reverted back if the response calls for it (from the community and my other co-mods) and I will concede.
Weigh in with your thoughts and opinions. Furthermore, you have a more artistic tongue in legalese, propose any alteration to the disclaimer to make it less ambiguous and more succinct. I suck at legalese.
Cool?
Yet, it's been here for how long?
Don't really care about mobile users, tbh. Last I checked, there is no app and these wins aren't mobile friendly. I'm going to go out on a limb and say the majority here use desktop like myself.
Anyways, care to chime in on the finer details, as a co-mod.
The site uses the "web app" function. You go to the domain on mobile device web browser, and an option pops up to "install website as app" or "install webapp" - something like that. Then "scored" or "win" shows up as an app on the device. The admin seemed to put a lot of their focus for a while into developing that mobile UI, I think they must have quite a lot of mobile users. It seems to be their intention to eventually get an actual app into app stores. I have used that mobile UI to moderate when I've been away.
Don't use the mobile app, so I have no idea what you are talking about, nor do I see how this is relevant to the conversation at hand. You are a mod here and I altered the sidebar, established ethos, and rules.... Yet, here you are talking to me about the mobile app and not the issue at hand.
It's relevant because probably half the users who use the site don't see a sidebar. I have no complaints or issues with the changes you've made. I will copy the txt into the manage rules section for mobile users.
I use mobile.
I think C just fixed the mobile sidebar thing 2-3 weeks ago, I see the proper sidebar now, on mobile
I doubt it's half, but, hey... What do I know, though? I'm on here via Desktop and TOR. Glad to hear you have no objections, though.
Duly noted.
