Regarding promotion of other social sites on 12160

We have once again made a decision not to allow the promotion of other social sites here. For the newbies, we made this decision because there has been and are so many different members here with their own social sites that it has become an issue.

We see it as splitting up our members and hurting the growth of the site by replicating what's already available right here. We are a social network and we don't need more like us.


We see promotion of other social sites, going off site for our radio shows and seperate chat rooms as contrary to this sites goals such as growing membership, increasing member activities and dialog as well as retaining our current membership.

Over all our thought is it is intentionally or not divisive .

When some one new joins up, often they see our success, and whether concisely or not they want to replicate it in their own way by creating another social site.

The recent decision was prompted when a newer member to the site did promote a social network. They were asked to keep it on their profile page and not promote it on the main pages.

This member took this as direct censorship and violation of their rights.

We disagree. Its a public space versus private space issue. This site is private, like our home, and the family its members. We are not a public place like your local park, or your city hall and you simply do not have the right to claim such an infringement.

You certainly have rules for visitors to your house and it would not be violating their rights to ask them to leave if they were disrupting your exercise of freedom.

Would you demand your neighbor place a campaign ad in the window of their house for a candidate they would never vote for? Would they be infringing on your rights for saying no?

Don't take it personally, we don't.

It isn't about egos or personalities, its about a self preservation and advancement.

With three years under its belt, this site and a core group of people have decided that this is their home, to meet, organize and advance our common goals. And its our collective feeling that keeping people here on this site, and not having them diverted to other locations, particularly social networks is what's been part of our current success.

Your comments welcomed!

Hey! Ive got an Idea! Listen...why not have an area on the site specifically for linking
to other "truth" forums, most other web sites have this feature, they usually call them "links"
Anyways I'm gonna suggest this to the other forums I go to, We the People should not be bickering about this, its a no brainer, we the People have to work together, I go to 3 different forums because each one has something to offer that maybe the other doesn't, that does not mean I am going to choose any one over the other and forget about the others.
If you folks cant get it "together" and work with each other then I guess I'll hafta do it for you
and make a web site just for linking all you truth forums together, I have been thinking about doing that anyways for awhile just havent figured out how yet (but I will) anyways thats my 2 cents.
ps. and if anyone wants to "steal" this idea, then please do because coming together is whats really important to me, not the childish attitude of mine!, mine! only mine site!.

Tj the issue was never if they should or should not on their radio show. And had they precisely asked this, instead of going ballistic maybe things would be different. I would have preferred they didn't have another site and pimp it on air yet it was not my biggest concern. The site is, and thats all it ever was. See my reply to shadow for more on this. So not sure your rules idea would matter on this issue, for it was only the site not radio. I do like the idea of discussing radio policy.

This thought occurred to me tonight too. We shall examine it. Thanks.
RU, I appreciate the feedback, yet I see assertions and dont find any reason to accept them as true. Care to expound on this thought?
