The Our Social Area

Our social area is present on various websites, various subdomains, on our platforms.

This is very important because it transforms DirectDemocracyS into a real system-wide social network.

Our social area has all the potential of all other social networks, and some unique and inimitable features, suitable for all our activities.

We've explained several times why we created our platforms, with all our systems, our web servers, and many other proprietary technologies. We simply reiterate that we value being free, independent, neutral, resilient, and protected, and this is achieved by having everything we need collectively owned by all our official members. We do it all through self-funding, without having to ask for favors or permissions, to express ourselves and work together, with shared rules that are proposed, discussed, chosen, tested, voted on, and implemented in an autonomous and truly democratic manner.

Our social network has its own place on many of our websites, based on specific activities, the types of users who can access them, and the importance of what is done in each social area.

Differences between us and others.

The personal profile.

Everyone who joins us must register and create a single personal profile by completing a simple registration form. After activation, they can customize their profile, avoiding posting unsolicited, and especially unauthorized, status updates, so as not to clutter public spaces with unnecessary content. If they wish to express themselves freely, while respecting the rules, they can do so within the group or in groups they are a member of, without disturbing other users, but allowing them to express their full potential. Each member will participate in at least one group and will have the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities.

Public spaces in our social areas.

In DirectDemocracyS, public spaces are reserved for our public spaces management group, which includes all our official members, who collectively own our entire system. While we embrace everyone's creativity and want to give everyone complete freedom to express themselves, posting or posting status updates without first requesting and, if you meet all requirements, receiving permission to post or post a status update from our public spaces management group is strictly prohibited.

How do I post something in the public areas? Use a support form at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/utility/extensions/submit-ticket

Please note: the above link only works after logging into our website with your credentials (username and password). The subject line should be: Public Area Management Group – Private Post in Public Area, or, as appropriate, Status Update in Public Area. You can leave the default priority (normal). For the message, write the post you want to write, and finally explain why your post is of public interest.

Explanation: We don't need posts that aren't of fundamental importance to everyone—cat photos, greetings, birthday wishes, or holiday greetings. Things of collective interest should be posted in everyone's space; specific things can be posted in private, confidential, invisible, or even secret areas, where they're visible only to those who are truly interested. This isn't a lack of freedom, but rather respect for the system and everyone in it. We have many free groups, in designated areas, where anyone can find whatever they're looking for, with very few restrictions based on the law, our rules, common sense, logic, good taste, and mutual respect.

Our public area management team can authorize or deny publication of your post or status update. If permission is denied, they will explain the reasons and recommend one or more groups, in your language and country or geographic area, from our free groups category, where you can post. If a group or page doesn't exist, you will be offered the option of creating one privately, with full instructions, allowing other people—your family, friends, contacts, and even strangers—to join your group or page. Naturally, you will create the group in the free social area and will be its manager, according to our implementing rules for creating groups and activities.

Rationale: Let's leave public areas for the general public's benefit, without taking away anyone's freedom of expression, but without forcing everyone to see posts and status updates, which aren't of interest to everyone.

Potential of our social areas.

In addition to the various profiles and groups (with numerous categories and subgroups), there are pages for various categories, events, videos, audio, and many other potential uses for endless activities. In the initial phases, almost all activities will be private, confidential, or secret, but in later phases, many public activities will be visible, in some cases based on internal decisions, even to those outside our system.

But how do you access our social area? Simply join us, register, and create a personal profile. After activation, you will be able to access our websites with your own login credentials, which are a username and password, chosen by each user on the registration form and which must not be shared with anyone for any reason. The username and password are used and entered only on the login form, and on the various websites based on your user type, the number of points earned, and various authorizations.

How do you get all the support, help, and information you need? Through our contact forms if you're a visitor, and through a support form after logging in if you're a user. The contact and support forms are available 24/7, 7 days a week, and in all languages. Responses are received faster, practically in real time, if you're a user, and you're a higher user type.

Is it fair to divide users into categories? Shouldn't everyone have the same rights? In DirectDemocracyS, the rules are the same for everyone, so there's no discrimination. Anyone who meets all the requirements can obtain a higher category of user, and roles of greater importance and responsibility. The division of our users is necessary because not all our users are the same; not everyone joins us with good intentions, and therefore, not everyone is reliable, sincere, loyal, honest, competent, and compatible with all our rules and methodologies. Therefore, not everyone meets the requirements for higher category users. Based on the specific activities performed, your behavior, and the time spent in our system, you earn points, both for individual activities and in various groups. These accumulated points demonstrate that you deserve higher category users. Each category user begins accumulating points immediately after joining us by completing the registration form. All our users, even free ones, earn 25 points just for joining us, and will continue to earn them based on very detailed implementation rules. The creation of "traditional" hierarchies, from top to bottom, in perfect balance, with shared leadership implementing bottom-up, horizontal hierarchies, is necessary to continuously implement equality and meritocracy for all, forever.

Is it right that official members have so much power? Anyone who respects all our rules, methodologies, and instructions, and meets our motivations and all the requirements, can join us at any time, without any invitation, voluntarily, without having to pay anything, without ever having to pay annual fees, without having to be present, and without having to volunteer in our system. All they need to do is choose a username (even a nickname or a random code), a password of at least 12 characters, and all they need is a personal email address (not temporary and protected by a secure password), and a personal phone number. Read the instructions for completing the registration form at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/law/rules/activity-rules/registration-rules/registration-form

and then register at this link:

https://free.directdemocracys.org/register

by choosing the free user type, or based on detailed rules, one of the other types available, in the registration form.

Anyone can join us, and if and when they meet all the requirements, every user—and therefore every person—can become our official member and have collective ownership of our entire system. Since our entire system is also their property, according to our implementation rules, they will have unlocked a wealth of potential and a tremendous amount of collective and shared power. No one is discriminated against. Everyone can achieve anything if they demonstrate their worthy status.

I don't know whether I can trust paying the annual fees. What can I do? Anyone who isn't confident can get a free user level, and then decide to upgrade to a higher level, or keep the free one forever. There are no obligations, and everyone decides as they prefer. Obviously, while you can do a lot of things with us, the free user level doesn't offer much potential, and it doesn't grant access to very important areas. This is logical; we can't allow just anyone to hold very important roles unless they prove they deserve it.

You always talk about merit. If I have little potential as a free user, how can I prove my worth? With the points I earn, everyone who joins us demonstrates their worth from the very first moment.

Why don't you clearly state how much each point is worth? Each point has a value in our system, which varies based on many specific rules. You can't buy points to gain access to secret areas or to obtain higher user levels. Points can't be used to pay annual fees. Points cannot be sold, transferred, or inherited. Each person accumulates their own points based on their activities and behavior, both individually and within various groups.

So if points have no cash value, how do you reward your top users? I read that 33% of all money coming in goes to rewarding your top users.

The answer is very simple: the top user management and review group, through the user rewards group, awards money, goods, services, and even jobs (project, fixed-term, or permanent) to the best users, based on very detailed, specific rules. Thirty-three percent of all money received is used to reward the best users. To determine how much money, rewards, goods, services, and jobs each of our users is entitled to, we take into account several criteria: 1. the time spent with us (those who have been with us longer are entitled to more rewards), 2. the number of points accumulated (those with more points are entitled to more rewards), 3. the specific activities performed (some activities are much more important than others), 4. the user's behavior (those who have received sanctions, been suspended, or been blocked will receive fewer rewards), 5. the user type (certain rewards, perks, and benefits are reserved for certain types of users, to create healthy, fair, useful, honest, orderly, organized, and safe competition).

The social space offers a wealth of potential and makes DirectDemocracyS the leading social network for politics, but also for countless other projects in various categories: economic, financial, multimedia, information, sports, social, and many others, and even our own charitable foundation. It's an ever-expanding universe made up of countless "galaxies" of projects , many of which have their own space on our platforms and, with our micro-groups, potentially physically anywhere.
