↔️ How would you Categorize All Groups and Posts on SW? 🔃

Hello all! 🖐️
We have been moving ahead with plans of restructuring Similar World's Groups and Categories [i](for all Post types)[/i].

As most users may already know, the existing various groups that exist on SW, were imported [i](many hundreds of thousands)[/i] from the defunct website, EP.

To properly organize and improve Similar Worlds, we aim to provide a Category based Hierarchal structure, for all Posts on SW.

[b]This will allow posted content to be properly grouped and categorized,
so that users will finally be able to see more of the content they are looking for,
and less of the types of content they wish to not see.[/b]


To move another step closer towards having these changes made, we would now like to allow users the opportunity to suggest to us (the SW staff):

[c=#4C0073][b]What [u]Broad Categorization[/u] do you believe to be most accurate, for the various existing groups and categories that currently appear on our website.[/b][/c]


[c=#800055]We will be working on a feature, yet to be released,
likely a [u]Drop-Menu of Categories[/u], which will exist within each Group on this site, whereby any user can place their "Vote" for the correct categorization of that group, by making a selection from the Drop-Menu list of options.[/c]


Below is a sample [i](but not the final)[/i] list of Broad/Top-Level Categories we are considering, to group of all posts on SW within.

[i](Further categorized into sub-categories, but we will address this later.)[/i]

[quote][big]List of Broad / Top-Level Categories on SW[/big][i] (Incomplete / Pending)[/i]

[big][c=#004A59]• Career
• Fun & Questions
• Health & Fitness
• Identity
• Interests
• Life
• Politics
• Relationship
• Religion
• Self-Improvement
• Sports
• Struggles[/c][/big]
[sep]
[c=#804600][big]• Questionable[/big][/c] [c=#666666][i](suggested to be [u]Reviewed[/u])[/i][/c]
[c=#800000][big]• Illegal[/big][/c] [c=#666666][i](strongly suggested to be [u]Removed[/u])[/i][/c]
[/quote]


[c=#4C0073][b]You can assist us via the comments section below,
by proposing a final list for our Broad / Top-Level Categories
(or by simply suggested adjustments to our list).[/b][/c]


The options listed as:
[b]• Questionable
• Illegal[/b]

... can be utilized by users, to help bring to attention inappropriate groups more quickly,
so that we can sooner flush out unwanted and inappropriate groups and discussions, from our Similar Worlds community.

No scissor section?
I am sure anything Orange Man Good will be deemed illegal and removed. As well as anything else that doesn’t fit the Party Agenda. So what will be left? Oh, wait. That question answered itself: anything Left. So religion, heterosexuality, gender identity, anything pro gun, property rights and the Republican Party will no longer be permitted on this site. The list of course will grow as more whiners file more complaints about the things they don’t like: which is everything. Within a year you will have a dry barren wasteland that might as well be called Similar Deserts.@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout

@stratosranger paranoid much? I think questionable is aimed more at the perverse angle than the political one.

@stratosranger that sounds like a good idea, well done!

@MalteseFalconPunch My thoughts exactly - it's not rare to see the front page of SW filled with pro Trump stuff topics, and as a non US person this has been progressively driving me away from SW. It sounds like this site would have to be an only pro Trump echo chamber for these guys to sop whinging about that.
Guys guys.. just ask for a scissor section 😎👍✂️🕺🏻

@JdesDelices This problem should resolve itself after Tuesday.

@JdesDelices That is something of the goal for a lot of them. They want neutral people to show up and see that their point of view is popular in order to recruit through the bandwagon effect and the normalization of their world views.
Congress and the senate take big bags of money from big tech..
they talk a big game for the public. But will never pass anything anti big tech.. this will need an EO to fix..

Ted Cruz said himself he was on the phone with the Zucc and Dorsey the day before the hearing.. letting them know he’s gunna growl and jump up and down for his voters.. ‘ but we wont actually do anything’.. p

@stratosranger Well, if it does get that bad, people can move on. I came here from another question site but only because their notification system crapped out and it was too cumbersome to use.

CestManan · 46-50, F
@ScarletWitch That section would have an intro similar to this old commercial.
