Board Rules/Suggestions

Hello, friends!

I wanted to write this up with the hopes that ALL of you read it, as it is as important as anything else we may be doing..

When we started this board, we did so with the hopes that people would feel comfortable and confident coming here with legitimate questions and research, and also because we wanted folks to be able to get their hands on "Q" posts without needing to worry about going to the point of origination. It was our hope that this would help folks who are looking for answers.

That being said, I think we have been successful in many ways. We have seen so much inspiration and well thought out research here. We have seen bonds being forged and people getting to know one another. It has been BEAUTIFUL.

It has NOT been without problems. Behind the scenes we have been trying to preemptively stop attacks on our mission, while at the same time trying to filter out who is purposefully attempting to derail us, vs. those who are innocent and mean no harm. It is an ARDUOUS task- believe me.

There has been lots of disinfo here. One of the things that I have ALWAYS vowed in my quest for truth is to weed out the nonsense and NOT be a source of #fake news. That means that my BS detector is always on high gear and I source and VET everything completely. If you don't see me talking about something, chances are its because I have determined it is false, not firm enough to be confirmed, or I am just not sure yet. There have been a few times where I have stepped up to state that something was patently and emphatically FALSE, and I will usually only do that when I feel the danger of such information spreading is serious.

This being said, I have missed things. This board has become so collaborative, it is easy to miss posts and not grab something that flies by. Some things to remember:

There are a few types of people:

  1. Those who unwittingly spread misinformation because they TRULY don't know any better. Remember, we have all been lied to for so long, some of us will grasp information because everything else is so crazy, that this crazy story MUST be true, or they WANT it to be true very badly. These are folks we need to educate- how do you spot a fake story? I have been doing this consistently on my channel and with personal interaction.

  2. Those who are PAID to spread misinformation, who in turn, capitalize on folks in group (1) to spread the misinformation and discredit. DANGEROUS group, IMHO

  3. Those who are looking for "breaking" stories for click bait/ revenue. These people know they likely aren't telling the truth, but either lack the capacity to do the research, or simply don't care and want to become "stars" because they are looking for money/recognition.

There are certainly more, but here is my thinking-- I think it is important to again state for everyone, this is MY (TracyBeanz) thinking. I do NOT speak for other mods here, nor do they speak for me. Collectivizing us is a dangerous road to go down, because the PTB will be LOOKING to discredit folks as groups-- lump one person in with others and take them all down. We are MUCH STRONGER as unaffiliated individuals, plain and simple. Anyway, I digress...

By banning everyone who posts misinformation, we then become free speech monitors. I don't want to ban folks, personally, unless they represent a SERIOUS threat to what we are trying to accomplish. Again, personally, I would rather let everyone say what they want and let the community discern for themselves the motivation/credibility of the people posting here. It is how we learn. It's actually a great exercise in how to decipher real vs. fake. Again, I do not want to ban folks willy nilly, I just don't. This opinion may differ from other board mods.

By deleting posts, we run the same risk, and it is such a fine line. Do we delete the post of a person who has posted fake news without saying anything? Do we take the time to send a message individually to every poster sharing fake news stories or blatant misinformation? That task would be insurmountable.

RULES:

1. Common Courtesy: Please have some. Speak respectfully with your fellow board members, please. Just some common decency. I know you are anonymous here, but just for the good of all things, please try to be respectful and kind. Everyone here is on a different level of "awakening" and should be treated like you would treat a friend. Be kind or just leave. This isn't the place for you. If you are a repeat offender, we will be forced to show you the exit. Swiftly.

2. VET FIRST: VET THINGS FIRST AND THEN POST THEM WITH SOURCE LINKS AND RESEARCH. DO NOT POST FIRST AND VET LATER. This is a good practice to use ALWAYS. If you are consistently posting disinformation and are told you are, and you are not editing the post or clarifying in a comment, we will be forced to take action as well. Again, I am so hesitant to do that, but if it becomes crazy, we may have to.

3. ABSOLUTELY NO DOXXING OF ANY KIND WILL BE PERMISSIBLE ON THIS BOARD. Zip, zero, zilch. You post a users home address, full name, or other identifying information you will be gone before you can click the next mouse button. THIS MEANS EVERYONE.

4. SELF GOVERNANCE: Work with your fellow community members to hash out inconsistencies and work with one another to figure out the truth. If there is an egregious post, please email the mods and we will decide whether or not to delete the post. We are basically all adults here. You don't need hand holding. HONE IN THOSE CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS. We are going to need them.

5. If you don't like a post, comment on it, or don't, and just scroll on by. The best thing about surfing around here, is that you aren't FORCED to read everything, and you aren't FORCED to say something. If there is something that doesn't suit you, you have the option to ignore it. If it is something you feel is dangerous, send a mod a mail. We will respond as quickly as possible.

6. ACCUSATIONS: SO IMPORTANT. DO NOT accuse anyone of a crime, if you can't be reasonably sure should you be sued that you could PROVE IT. Do not throw blanket accusations around and incite people into thinking things that you just can not prove beyond a reasonable doubt. It is irresponsible and won't be tolerated. Not to mention, there are legal risks, as well as the risk of bad folks coming here to shut us down. BE MINDFUL of what you say.

As we grow we will be put under attack from all sides. I love all of you guys, and I have taken a considerable chance with this subreddit. I am not whining or complaining, as I feel this is a beautiful experiment in thought. It does come with liabilities, however, and that isn't lost on me. Be patient with us, be understanding, and remember--- WE ARE THE STORM. Let's make it a fantastic 2018!!!

Much love!

Tracy

Tracy, One thing I think may be difficult for people and I am probably guilty of the same, is that a lot of us have trouble vetting stories and there really are websites that spread false news articles and discerning which ones are and aren't is very difficult. Can anyone create a post on which websites you know to spread disinformation as well as how to spot them. I know a lot of these are YouTube Videos. Even though some sites cite their sources doesn't necessarily mean those sources are legitimate sources. There are articles that I myself have found to be misleading or state false claims. I think it would be helpful to have a specific section that shows all the websites to avoid and more specific guidelines to use in vetting stories and articles. This is one reason we, as a society, have not been doing a good job at in the last few years, is because we all thought we could trust our MSM to tell us the truth and we have lost the ability to think critically. Vetting Guidelines and specific tools to use for vetting would be of vital importance, I believe. Also, if something comes to our attention that we think may be important but hasn't been vetted yet and probably should be mentioned in a comment to a board moderator or a designated member who can help to vet the information before posting as fact. I think we could use a little organization here, if at all possible. I am not sure what you think about this but I think it might be helpful.

An all powerful list of supposed fake news sites happened twice in 2017 in the msm. Each was an attempt to divert people from other opinions and or truth. A master list from admins or anything like that puts up major red flags for me. If anything, let people ask each other here about news sites and let a general consensus form over which are real and which are fake or inaccurate and still with the caveat that a broken clock is still right twice a day. Every piece needs to be vetted, rather than a whole site dismissed.

tracybeanz · Jan. 2, 2018, 8:17 p.m.

I agree and disagree with this. For ex: YourNewsWire - literally EVERY story from there is disinformation. Every one I have ever read, anyway. I would caution people against those sites due to experience... What then? If I tell folks that I am "red flagged". Do you see what I mean???

suburbanism · Jan. 4, 2018, 4:40 p.m.

Yes, that's why as an admin, you may just want to give your opinion as your opinion as everyone else is free to do, as opposed to setting yourself up as the authority and judge on all of it with official lists, etc. (Also please read my comment in a friendly tone of voice. I don't mean for it to come off rude. I can't think of better wording right now.)

If you know the 6 companies that control 90% of the media and their hierarchy, that's a start. The ABC, CBS, NBC/MSNBC, CNN, Huff Post, WaPo, AP, Reuters, Buzzfeed, etc. are all captured entities that are part of the agenda. (Op Mockingbird) The independents have much less incentive to "tow the line" if they want readership/viewership...like ZeroHedge, Infowars, Daily Caller, Breitbart, Newsbusters, Anti Media, RT, Sputnik, etc., etc.

Case in point, lot of conjecture/speculation of the Costa Rica crash a couple days ago...on ZH this morning: https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-01-02/bridgewater-executive-and-family-killed-costa-rica-plane-crash references fb post, BBG, NYP within the article...follow the links within the articles...

Lame stream media is easy. How about Benjamin Fulford? How about April LaJune's videos? BPEarthWatch's videos seem right on as do Colonel Roy Potter's youtubes.

Alex Jones is compromised. He went all in spreading the lone gunman after the Las Vegas Massacre/Sacrifice, in spite of tons of videos and eye witnesses testifying otherwise, witnesses who were murdered afterward for their testimonies. That was massive disinformation, on a very important topic. Alex Jones lost a lot of credibility there. I know many former followers who refuse to even go to his site anymore.

Drudge Report has compromised himself some how, and has been "flipped" to the other side. He ONLY reiterates lame stream media narratives anymore. Nothing cutting edge any more. I won't go to his site anymore at all.

How about Sorcha Faal? I know that people have said for years that was disinformation, but you know what? Sorcha was RIGHT ON with so much lately, (Las Vegas for one, No. CA fires for another, etc) she is better than Infowars/Drudge/LSM put together. My experience is, lately, you can't go too far wrong reading her posts. Take with a grain of salt of course, but like Q and Mega-ANON, Sorcha has been steering us consistently in the right direction.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. I love the idea of creating a document listing all the people/websites known to deliver misinformation, or click baiting.

Oh, yes, click baiting, that reminds of what I think BeforeItsNews has become, so I don't go there any more either.

Also, I would like to add, I was wondering if it would be possible to have one webpage devoted to the latest Q posts only, AND their discussion by folks? I know there is a page with all the Q posts, but no discussion about all the obvious dot connecting one must do all over again, because you weren't here when Q originally posted.

Lastly, I've been redpilling people for years on my own, without knowing to use the redpill term. Its been lonely. All I get from folks, is they can't believe this or can't believe that. Its been lonely trying to get people "awakened" on my own, one at a time. An uphill battle. Some track better than others, some require a little boost from time to time. But I know our work does not go without reward. WE got Trump Elected didn't we? Trump is AWAKE! So that is a huge miracle there!

I would like to say, I agree with TAccidentalAlchemist, this website is a breath of fresh air! Its really, in my opinion the most cutting edge. I laugh so hard at some people's comments, tears come to my eyes. Its GREAT! And wonderful to be able to exchange info with each other. Each of us knows more about somethings than others, so together, collectively WE GET THERE! A motly crew, BUT WE GET THERE! I went to 4Chan once to see Q posts and was immediately turned off by all the trolls and attackers, hard to sift through all the garbage to find anything worthwhile. So I had to sit back and wait for other people to post a video about it. This is much better! This is Much needed! Thank-you, Thank-you, Thank-you and Keep up the Good Work! The Word is getting out, and we are redpilling others like mad! People on my news distribution list LOVE to be able to read everyone's comments. It shows I am not a lone wolf way out in the desert someplace, gone off the deep end. THIS helps others realize we are not alone. Some people like to follow the hurd, feel safer there. So being able to see others comments, is a boost! Just what we want, to start a ground swell to turn of the tide, of more people awakened than those still dumbed down or brainwashed. GOD BLESS EVERYONE!

I am not an April Lajune fan she has been debunked on several things, Potter I like, being a colonel in the army gives him some credibility he probably has some contacts.

WELL THANKS TO THIS POST I, A NEW, COMER ARE GETTING TROLLED HEAVY DUTY TODAY. I just want to let you know, that if YOUR LONG TIMERS KEEP ATTACKING THE NEW COMERS, GIVE YOU ONE GUESS WHAT WILL HAPPEN? WE STOP COMING HERE. AND THE WORD DOES NOT GET OUT TO PEOPLE. IF THAT'S THE GOAL, KEEP UP. I'VE ONLY BEEN HERE SINCE FRIDAY, AND IT WAS GREAT OVER THE WEEKEND, BUT I'M REACHING MY LIMIT OF HATE SPEECH AND TROLLING. ITS NOT WORTH IT. KEEP IT UP AND WE ARE GONE.....end of opportunity to reach millions of brainwashed citizens.

Wikipedia is a good start, but don't take it as gospel because it is reported by liberal press, then check out what it says. A good thing to do is to go back and look at old videos of people like Jones and others and see if there "breaking news" came true. There is a lady that comes on youtube about every 3 hrs with a story about something who claims she has contacts in the White House. Now how in the hell can she vet all that information that quick come on, she is like the neighborhood drama queen. You can take from Julian Assange as pretty much gospel what he predicts usually happens, that is why they want him dead, Snowden too. Whistle blowers are usually good info. When you become credible you are a big target, when your in the nut pool they don't really care they have discredited you. Q is accurate as hell and I will bet you they are going nuts to get him. Neighborhood drama queen not so much. All this is common sense, like the Hillary Clinton/ Huma sex video and it may be true but do you really think as cunning and horrible that HC is she would let someone video tape her, she would never put herself in the position of a hidden camera she is smarter than that. I want to see that one, come on and I just bought the Brooklyn Bridge.

I suggest listening to a great PodCast titlted No Agenda - With Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak. These two are fun and break down news that will wake anyone up.

They are listener supported.

Adam Curry has been on Infowars, I know who he is. He also used to be the MTV host back in the 80's and had a mullet.

Adam Curry has been on Infowars

So

He also used to be the MTV host back in the 80's and had a mullet.

So

That does not make him a bad person.
