Another great siggestion form Paola - the Code of Conduct wording
|
Code of Conduct Only civil contributions will be published. Be nice. No personal attacks, name calling, abusive language or hate speech. Moderators’ Role Moderators will screen all posts, responses and reports to ensure they meet the Code of Conduct and the Tech Platform Standards. Posts ruled unacceptable will not be published. Moderators may preempt overly lengthy debates if members do not proactively move to private communication. If a member reports a concern with a post, moderators will resolve the issue by revisiting that post, communicating with the poster and reporter, occasionally communicating with the entire membership, and possibly removing the offending post or requiring alterations to it.? Tech Platform’s Standards To use the??tech platform , members and moderators of The-Bridge must respect their standards,? even if we may not agree with all of them. The standards are: no pornography, nudity or adult content: no harassment; no copyright violations; no extreme or hateful content; no conspiracy theories; no anti-vaccination ideologies; no advertising ; no sharing of GIFs, stationary, tags, graphics or such. Guideline for Posting Be respectful! Use a clear, descriptive title for your posts and try to be brief (100 words or less). If you have more to say, consider including an attachment or linking to a blog, websites or other media. Avoid links to sources if you suspect their accuracy or credibility.?If overly lengthy debates arise, please move your conversation to private messaging. Members’ Tools? Members can ignore or mute posts which do not interest them. The tech platform allows muting, and instructions on how to mute a post and any ensuing replies will be made available. Members can report posts to the moderators if they feel that what has been published fails to adhere to the Code of Conduct or Tech Platform Standards. Reports should clearly identify what portion of a post is considered objectionable, and why.? ? |

I was surprised by that one too! I think that's a very valid topic for discussion. That's why I put in the bit about us (meaning the moderators) not necessarily agreeing with them all. I have no idea how the tech platform works. Maybe they have AI scanning for certain words and words strings. Maybe you get a warning before being in danger of losing your place on their platform. Probably just worth forging ahead until some sort of issue arises.

Hi Guys ?I'm guessing that Groups.io is not interested?in particular?individual posts about Covis etc.?but that they don't want newsgroups dedicated?to a single issue that appear in their?list (such as Anti-Covid or White Nationalism or ...as they define their scope) I don't think they would scan individual?posts - it is group?members?who could report egregious posts to them and then they would respond.? I think we'd be OK with that type of discussion and we do our moderating within?our group and can advise locally - but they do have the right as per terms of agreement to adjudicate?reports?and actually they?are obligated to do so by the terms of agreement. Let's just not launch with a lot of shit that would draw attention. Also for those people (Sean and Vagner and maybe me...) who have outside platforms - blogs - websites - podcasts - we should consider The-Bridge as a hub where we can promote and link to our spaces - space where we can go further and say more in unrestricted?fashion and at greater length. Let's think - about optimizing launch success and hub connections in our framework for The-Bridge |

Well - if we want to do a sub group then that is our only choice - we had said that we wanted to publish within WFN and the sub group seems to be the closest that we can get to that. If we have to go to a separate group then I will stick with Groups.io with the explanations?I've given before. I have done a lot of work on this and Groups.io will work just fine - all platforms have some boundaries unless one wants to go encrypted with the Nazis and other freaks. We'll be able to publish most everything directly and then members have external blogs and links to more detailed material. I won't spend any time looking for another platform - we have?a workable plan - people can join the plan or not - or people can indeed join this group as well as any other platform that they like - we need a focus and need to avoid?any scope-creep in this mission On Fri, Mar 15, 2024 at 9:29?AM sean butler via <seanthesea=[email protected]> wrote:
