DISCUSSION: I don't know if you noticed this but some users in here are trying to get active moderation going in this forum. I think we need it in here, so we can act like a community, not every man for himself... You might be helping with suggestions, votes, ideas for a better community...

There are several existing posts about discussions on the moderation in this forum.

Thisisnotanexit has provided them here:

Here are the posts that (I'm aware) currently relate to this topic:

https://communities.win/c/Meta/p/1ARK0LXq6i/cconspiracies-has-had-no-active-/c

https://communities.win/c/Conspiracies/p/1ARK0NmhL7/cconspiracies-has-had-no-active-/c

https://communities.win/c/Conspiracies/p/1ARK0RBc7L/community-question-your-response/c

Also, we are silenced in this site in Trending, as Graphenium noticed.

This causes many issues, as we can't attract new people in this forum, our topics are not getting the fair attention as they deserve, and if we're shadowbanned, I think we need to know why... don't you?

There are posts with 1 upvote in there, but none of ours is - https://communities.win/c/trending

Please help this community to have active moderation. We have trolls, shills, and this is making us only work for ourselves... We have no community effort. And do you know what the enemy has?

Community... fkin... effort...

We had those round table posts and Graphenium tried to make this happen again. I think we would all benefit from good moderation and combining our efforts.

Some of you participated already in the discussion. But if you want a community effort, and fair moderation, as well as mods selected by you personally... Please review the links and answer there with your choices.

Now, it's clear for me that I want to vote for Graphenium and Thisisnotanexit as mods... But there are others, who offered themselves as mods, and I just want to be sure when we choose, so we can select our mods and make this place according to our wants.

Please take some time to help this community to become better than it currently is... And we currently are just pushing for our own topics... We need a common goal!

I'm looking at you u/pkvi and u/ThirdEyeVision ... Where are your applications to become mods? I think that the more mods are selected, then we have more ideas on how to move forward as a group... And we need bright minds!!!!

Sorry, if I miss someone, who has proven their potential to take this community to the next level. Please take some time to reply in the posts that Thisisnotanexit has compiled out of his free will.

No need to reply to this post, and you can make posts of your own with your wants and needs about this community, or just present why you think you're a proper mod for this community.

We need mods! And when the voting happens, I don't want you to miss it.

Please help this community to become better - any ideas are appreciated!

Because Scored started with, and its biggest component is still, what became patriots.win

That explains why thedonald.win and patriots.win were used. So GAW, conspriacies, etc. were founded when TheDonald.win was still the domain?

couple perks,

Like what? Besides the u/#picturesandgifs?

and they allow multiple entry for newcomers as well,

How so?

I don't know when the GreatAwakening and Conspiracies communities migrated from Reddit, but it was after r/TheDonald in 2019 and the platform was ready for them. I believe the first migration was to communities.win, with thedonald.win held by a connected individual who then declined to relinquish the domain, and patriots.win having been held as the backup for that eventuality. Not sure how long thedonald.win was a parallel domain to communities.win.

The idea was that new communities might be helped by having their own domains, and that multiple domains for the same community helps search (although the site is generally opposed to search so that's minimal). There are a few other coding bells and whistles, notably user flairs, some API tweaks that I have heard witnessed but can't describe, and unique formatting, allowing the one-community site to maintain a distinct look and feel, and also allowing those who never need to discover all of Scored to enjoy their niche. But that's 80% optics for those for whom optics are important. To me the core platform is exceptionally well-founded, like Gab is, and that's what's important.

All the nominally "20/12/31" communities in this nonscientific survey were founded around that time give or take a couple months. The specific names like ConsumeProduct and KotakuInAction(2) came earlier, the generic names like Animals and Christianity all came pretty much at once in Feb 2021. Add: Communities founded between Oct 2021 and 9 Feb 2022 were created in a second wave by established users getting special admin permission, after that community creation was open to everyone with a few contribs.
