What would you like to see updated in the SaidIt Policy? Feel free to discuss the following and add your own issue(s).

Here are a few to consider...

1) Use it or lose it subsaidits.

I propose: if a sub remains empty, say for a month (or your preferred time span), then the admins have the right to reclaim that sub to become the moderators of it, thereby able to delete it or run it as they see fit.

2) Be active or lose it subsaidits.

I propose: if a sub moderator remains unresponsive or inactive, say for a few months (or your preferred time span), then the admins have the right to reclaim their subs to become their moderators, able to run them as they see fit.

Reclaiming the moderation of vacant subs is one thing.

There should be further discussion on which subs to remove.

There could be further discussion on subs with few posts - an entirely different matter.

3) Batch addition of new subsaidits.

I propose: as a one time event, the admins add several specific subs to able to better classify our posts. I have been thinking on this for months now and I have narrowed it down to these topics that seem critically missing. Maybe you only think only some are good but not others. Perhaps you'd like a better title/name. Please discuss.

• Asia, Brazil, California, CentralAmerica, EuropeanUnion, NewZealand, Russia, SaudiArabia, SouthAmerica, UK, Vietnam

• Banksters, ClassWar, Corporatocracy, DeepState, MindControl, Monopolies, NewWorldOrder, PsyOps (ie. false flags), Technocracy

• GreenParty, Independents, InternetParty, LibertarianParty, Piracy, PirateParty,

• Fulfillment_WellBeing, Openness_Transparency, OpenSource, Progressivism, SharingEconomy, Solutions,

• PoliticalAnalysis, Race, Sex, SocialEngineering, VideoEssays, WorldHistory,

(Here is my much longer list: https://infogalactic.com/info/SaidIt#SaidIt_subs_wishlist including everything I could imagine. Some things cancel others out or are presently way to specific. For example, adding UK or MindControl would minimize any need for London, Britain, England, Wales, or Brainwashing, Hypnosis, Illusionism, MKUltra, PredictiveProgramming.)

(I'd be happy to eventually make custom banners for any/all of them that you like, though to begin I'd develop a simpler consistent design template to apply across them, temporarily or perhaps not. Don't feel any pressure to take my artwork or CSS - either way I win - either I get to make something pretty or I am not encumbered by another project. Examples: https://infogalactic.com/info/SaidIt_gallery#SaidIt_banners_gallery )

4) Who will be the new mods?

While I have no interest in being mod other than to beautify it with my banners and CSS, perhaps others have interest in becoming mods or co-mods of the "abandoned" subs and any of the new subs in my proposed batch-add list - or any new proposals to add to it. If this is the case speak up and discuss - or I expect the default mod will be magnora7 and/or d3rr. (M7, please turn on image thumbnails on all your subs.)

5) I propose: that the 70px wide thumbnail images be expanded to 100px thumbnail images increasing the resolution by 142.857%, in both the browsers and mobile app.

6) Dealing with potential threats to the future of SaidIt.

I propose: we discuss and start to develop policies regarding how to deal with present day activities that might become a potential threat to SaidIt in the future. If "they" want to censor our free speech the powerful will find ways - but the powers-that-be will likely first find excuses. For example, "The Jews did 9/11" is profoundly inaccurate and could be considered anti-Semitic and cause for censorship in the future. Contrastingly, "The Jews killed Jesus" and "The Jews intend to enslave the goyim according to their scriptures" are legitimate viewpoints. So limited to this example (for lack of others)... Is it fair to demand people use more precise words? Such as, "The Zionists did 9/11"? And then, of course, how would this be enforced?

To be clear, this is not about censoring thought or words, but being more precise about usage to prevent further censorship. This is not about using bad words either. "The niggers did 9/11" is also extremely inaccurate, and while "the niggers" may offend and trigger many alarms, alone those considered in the slurred identity could not censor SaidIt and are not powerfully running the banks, mainstream media, Washington, and the military. But those with real power can stomp us, now and in the future. So how much should we self-censor, monitor, and adjust ourselves?

7) I propose: that m7 and d3 pat themselves on the back for 5 minutes, then get back to saving the world.

Specific examples of empty subs:

1. The /s/canada moderator /u/metacanada has not posted one thing yet has been here for 6 months, and has not responded to /u/JasonCarswell 's request to create banner for it and/or be co-mod to add a CSS - even if just temporarily to beautify that sub. (See also: /s/canada/comments/ero/citizens_of_canada_unite_i_asked_the_mod_of/ )

2. Similarly the /s/death moderator /u/Diplomat has also posted one thing in the 3 months on SaidIt.

3. On January 1, 2019 this survey of subsaidits ( https://infogalactic.com/info/SaidIt_Subs_Ending_2018 ) revealed that roughly a third of the subs are heavily used, roughly a third have 1-20 posts, and roughly a third of the subsaidits were completely empty. The specific numbers have changed but not substantially.
