With the start of the local phases, DirectDemocracyS, has decided to implement a new security measure, to prevent any possible problem.
We have introduced, as a preventive measure, the payment of a small sum of money as a security deposit.
Attention: this security deposit does not concern registered users, who have already been activated, and who are in order, with the payment of the annual fee. Anyone who has an initial type, of access users, therefore free, without any obligation to be present, and without any obligation to carry out any activity with us, in order not to be blocked, if they have been with us for more than a year, they will have to choose a higher type of user, such as "partially verified users", and pay an annual fee, if they have not been with us for less than a year, they will have to pay the security deposit, at the first access, following the publication of this rule, and then within a year they will be able to choose a higher type of user, paying an annual fee, based on the type of user they want.
In this regard, to obtain some types of users, it is not enough to just pay the appropriate annual fee, but you must respect the rule and methodology of that type of user, therefore, before paying the annual fee, you must ask if you have the requirements, and the necessary authorizations, through a contact form.
Users who are on the waiting list, to receive an invitation, or, on the waiting list to be activated, whatever type of user they choose, will have to pay the security deposit, in order to continue the necessary activities, to be activated, within 30 days of the publication of our rule, with the payment of the security deposit.
Users who have been blocked, deactivated, or who have been expelled, in order to request to return to our political organization, must have paid the deposit, which in this case, will not be returned after a year, but will be considered "a tax" to be able to return to our political organization. The previous rule does not apply to those who have been declared persona non grata, who will never be readmitted to our immense family. The payment of the deposit does not guarantee the success of any request, but without it, the various requests will not even be taken into consideration.
Before making hasty judgments, or making theories without concrete evidence, read carefully, completely, even several times, with an open mind, this entire informative article. You must try to understand, not only all the content, but also all our motivations. As always, every single word, of every single sentence, represents our rules, which must always be respected by everyone. The most recent rule, as always happens, is the valid one, and modifies, without distorting their meaning, the previous rules.
Furthermore, no public word or phrase, which is an implementing rule, is not negotiable, and to change the implementing rules, other implementing rules must be followed, while the basic rules, can never be changed, nor distorted, for reasons based on logic, common sense, and mutual respect of all people. Additions can be made, based on our needs, without changing their effectiveness, and motivations.
At the end of the article, you will also find some questions and answers, on these topics.
Let's first look at the reasons.
Security deposit.
Due to the huge number of requests, of people who want to join us, to effectively prevent any possible problem, we are forced to ask for a security deposit, in money, to anyone who joins us. The single sum, to be paid before requesting our invitation, is 25 Euro, for those who are 31 years old and over, and 12.5 Euro, for those who are under 31.
The rules of this deposit are very simple, exactly one year after your deposit, you will recover the amount paid, according to specific rules, with the exception of bank charges, and the management costs of this money, which are approximately 3 Euros, for those who deposit 25, and approximately 1.5 Euros for those who deposit 12.5.
The money will be returned directly to the current account of the person who paid it, or to a new current account, decided by the person making the payment. The sums paid can be used to pay, possibly, the annual fee, to be part of our political organization, or, you can obtain debit cards, prepaid, registered in the name of the holder. The decision, on the method of return, or use of the money, in any case, is up to the person making the payment.
Reasons for this decision.
Security reasons.
Brief introduction.
So far, all the Internet Giants have tried to stop us, slow us down, or boycott us, making us practically invisible, both on search engines, but also on social networks, where less than 1% of the people who follow us, receive our posts. In many cases, for example on Facebook, our posts are not accepted, and once, for over 3 months, all our groups, and presentation pages, in all languages available at that time, were deleted, and every attempt to access our websites, from applications and Meta websites, gave an error page, and said that our website was not safe. We are the safest websites, and continuously monitored, on the Internet, with the best and most modern technologies, continuously updated, and with the best security measures. After 3 months they reactivated us, just before we reported them, in various Courts. On X, our official account, is currently limited, and no one is offered to visit us. Of course, we are sorry for those who follow us on social networks, or who search for us on the Internet. We recommend everyone to visit us only on our websites.
Their tactics, however, allowed us to grow slowly, but in a controlled, orderly, and organized manner in the best possible way. We thank them for this, thinking of hurting us, they helped us.
The situation could however be reversed, that is, they could make us known to many people, who if all together, joined us, would create short interruptions to our web servers, for technical times, to activate a new server, to add to the existing ones, to have all the power and space necessary, to welcome in the best way, all the new users / voters.
Even with all our good will, this situation would create unpleasant situations, for those who have already joined us, and for those who want to do so in the future.
These deposit amounts also allow us to have a guarantee that the people who join us will respect all our rules and all our methodology. For example, you do not publish anything in the public areas, but only in the groups you are a member of, you do not contact or make friend requests to strangers, you do not publish useless things, you do not waste time uselessly.
Even with these restrictions, which serve to keep everything tidy, clean, organized and safe, each of our users / voters has every opportunity to express their full potential, their ideas, with all possible means.
To some it may seem like a dictatorship, but instead we are the only truly free ones, and only we put authentic democracy into practice.
But let's see, why we ask for a security deposit.
To prevent any possible use of our potential in the wrong way.
Let's give you an example: do you like that every time you write something, someone disturbs you? Do you like watching pornographic videos, with links that often contain viruses? Do you like receiving friend requests, from complete strangers, who over time will lie to you in various ways, maybe ask you for money, or scam you? Do you like, while you talk about serious things, that some people make comments based on a presumed sympathy, that you do not find relevant, to what you were commenting on? Do you like seeing totally incompetent people, who talk about things they do not know, maybe publishing false news?
Effective prevention against fake profiles, multiple profiles, and against the feared and annoying robots, also called bots. These “applications” create many websites, often cloning real sites, but they also create non-human profiles, but perfectly similar to the profiles of real people, which fill the Internet and traditional social networks with materials, links, likes, and comments, which can negatively influence public opinion, as well as being dangerous and annoying.
Finally, there is a simple but very interesting reason. Even though thanks to our user types, the property rights we give to all our official members, and our security measures, it is impossible for anyone, rich, famous, and powerful person, business company, lobby, or other political force, to take control, and misuse, the enormous power, that we will share with anyone who joins us, there could be attempts, destined to fail, to boycott, or worse, to try to slow down, all our activities, with the infiltration of real people, controlled by others, with incorrect intentions. This deposit, will force all these people, to respect all our rules.
For these, and many other similar reasons, we have introduced the rule of this security deposit in cash.
At the first mistake, our expert groups, in the management of our websites, automatically block the user who has not respected all our rules, and take away all the money deposited. If he wants to publish again, he will have to change his name, surname, personal data, social security number, and ID, pay a new security deposit, make a new request to be invited, or fill out a new registration form, and hope that our computer system, our Artificial Intelligence, and our security groups, do not realize, that the person has already been registered, and has not respected our rules. Because as soon as they realize, they will automatically lose the security deposit, and will never be activated, by our activation groups, new users. And the same will happen, with every subsequent attempt to register, and join us.
There is a saying: you don't spit in the plate you eat from.
We have decided that every person who joins us, and is expelled, or leaves us, or does not carry out any activity, can never join us again. It is not a cruel choice, but as you must study and think carefully, before joining us, you must always behave well, in all our activities together, and think carefully before abandoning us, knowing that returning is practically impossible.
Are we too bad? Are we too demanding? We are just people, who know they have a huge responsibility, it is a very difficult task, who love to work in a calm, orderly manner, and without stupid distractions. No one forbids those who have joined us to go on traditional social networks, to see photos and videos of kittens, adorable, but not related, to our activities together.
At this point, many will be scared, and will not join us, for fear of losing their deposit money. We have taken all the security measures, so that anyone who joins us, never loses the money of their deposit. First, knowing all our rules, and our methodologies. Also, in case of doubt, before carrying out any activity, each of our users, after logging in, on our website, with our login form, will fill out a form called "can I?", explaining what they want to do, where, when, and how. The response is very fast, and once the authorization is obtained, the user can do what he explained, or in certain cases, he will receive information, to do what he wants to do, in a different way, that respects all our rules, and our methodologies, or, in certain cases, he will receive a refusal, usually, but not obligatory, motivated. So, no one can make mistakes, if not intentionally.
But are all these security measures really necessary? They have all been decided, with proposals, discussions, changes, and final votes, by our specialized groups, which can be part of, according to specific rules, all our official members. Each member also has the "power" to request a vote of all official members, or of all our registered users, with verified and guaranteed identity, on every single aspect of our implementing rules, while the basic rules can never be changed, or distorted, to give the right recognition, and to respect the work, of those who came before us, and to never forget, why we were born, how we have to work, which paths we have to take, and to always know, where we want to get to. It seems banal again, or dictatorial, but many of our basic rules, have been created, in over 13 years of very hard work, by very honest and competent people, from all over the world, so they cannot be changed, so as not to ever lose our identity.
To those who tell us that after one year, from the moment of paying the security deposit, after having received the money back, with the exception of bank charges and the costs for managing the money, the user will be completely free to carry out all the activities that we wanted to prevent, we must explain that within one year, each of our users must have activated a membership, which requires the payment of a very small annual fee. They can use the payment made as a security deposit to pay one or, as the case may be, more annual fees, or they can make a new payment, before requesting the refund of the amount previously paid. In any case, if after having received the security deposit money back, they carry out activities that are not authorized, they will be immediately blocked, and will also lose the money paid, as an annual fee. In any case, anyone who does not respect all our rules and all our methodology will be punished.
Our goal is certainly not to scare or lose potential users/voters, but to effectively prevent any possible problem.
Escrow Rules.
Each person who wishes to join DirectDemocracyS, in any user category, must pay, in advance, a security deposit, before requesting an invitation from us, or, as the case may be, before completing the registration form.
If you do not comply with all of our rules and methodologies, you will be immediately blocked and will lose your entire escrow forever.
This rule comes into effect immediately after its first publication, and applies to all our potential users, in all waiting lists, without any exceptions.
The detailed rules, and the implementing ones, will be presented, at the right time, in a dedicated information article.
Deposit payment link.
https://www.directdemocracys.org/register/membership/directdemocracys/deposit
How do you pay?
Select the form according to your age, if you are over 31 or under 31, make the payment, writing all your real personal data!
With your payment code, you can decide whether to join us by requesting an invitation (the fastest method, which we recommend to everyone), with our form to request an invitation, or by registering directly (which puts you on a waiting list, often very long), with our registration form.
In both cases, in the part of the 2 forms, where it says: guarantee deposit, you will enter the code obtained from our system, after the payment.
Warning: our system recognizes the personal data of the person making the payment, and the validity of each individual payment. To prevent any possible error, use your real personal data, both for payment, and in the invitation, request forms, and in the registration form.
Without a valid code, your requests, your forms, will not even be taken into consideration.
Now let's answer some questions.
Do you have financial problems if you ask everyone to pay to join you?
Unlike other political forces, we do not do politics to earn money, we are not corruptible, and we are not influenced by rich and powerful people. To survive, and to remain free and independent, we rely only on free, private and voluntary donations, or on annual fees paid by our users and members. Thanks to these revenues, our websites do not contain invasive advertising, and are clean, tidy, and safe. Anyone who joins us can become our official member, and request access to our accounting, and administration, income and expenditure groups. By doing so, anyone will realize that we have guaranteed the money needed to do an excellent job, for many more years, and that thanks to this method, we will never, and for any reason, have liquidity problems. We cannot fail, because we know how to earn, and spend in the right way. Therefore, we do not require a security deposit, to earn money, which we also return almost entirely. We keep for ourselves, the money for the bank commissions, for the transfer of deposits, and a couple of Euros, to pay the people who will manage these sums, and those who work in the groups, connected to these activities, who are all our official members. If we needed money, we would always be sincere, and we would ask for donations, explaining the situation well. We are not very rich, but we have no problems, of a financial and economic nature.
You are not consistent, with your rule, that anyone can join you, and register, absolutely free, without any obligation to be present, and without any obligation to carry out activities, together with you. Have you changed your mind?
The very detailed question also contains the answer. We do not ask for a single cent to join us, and to register, we only ask for a guarantee, that each person who joins us, respects all our rules, and all our methodology. If a person has a current account in a bank in our system, they will not pay a single cent in commissions, and we will only process a couple of Euros (2 for those who pay 25, and 1 for those who pay 12.5), for the management of the activation groups of new users, who have a lot of hard work to do, to be able to welcome in the best possible way, all those who join us. By hiring new staff, always among our best official members, the waiting lists that often exceed 6 months in length, will last a few weeks, maybe even a couple of days, until they become practically immediate, for those who meet our requirements. We believe that to evaluate whether someone likes or doesn't like working with us, a free year, with no obligation to be present, and without the obligation to do any activity with us, is enough. Then, after a year, you can decide whether to stay with us, at least with the partially verified user type, or, also based on the requirements, choose a higher one, based on our rules and methodologies, or, you can request the refund of the sum, and return to the old traditional political system, asking for the cancellation of your personal profile. If a couple of Euros in a year are too many, we are sorry for the economic and financial condition of anyone, in fact, we have funds, to help our best users / voters, who cannot pay annual fees, in many cases, not making them pay anything after a year, and also, depending on the case, finding them a job with us.
The basic rules can never be changed, but the rule of the initial user type, called access users, is an implementing rule of our activities, so it will be modified, adding a free duration for one year (with the security deposit), to then choose whether to stay with us, paying the annual fee, withholding the value of the annual fee, from the deposit payment, even partially, or, with a new payment, before the end of one year.
I am an elderly person. I read in an informative article on your website that at the first mistake, you lose all the money in the escrow, and you are automatically blocked. I will not join you, if you are so bad.
Anyone, young or old, can make a mistake, unintentionally. By following all our advice, no one will ever be able to make a mistake, but if it happens, every single person can delete, at any time, something they publish in the public space. In the groups, there are experienced people, who will help you, to correct any possible mistake. So, if you notice a mistake, or if you are reported by other users, or you are told that you have made a mistake, you can always correct it, or, as the case may be, delete the content, independently. If you have made any mistake, and you do not know how to delete the content, or how to correct the mistake, you just need to fill out a simple form, explaining the mistake, and our colleagues will help you, to solve any problem. The payment of the security deposit, is not a sneaky way, that we use, to take away your money, because no one in this period, can afford to throw away money. Our special security groups, are composed of understanding and very careful people. Our hope is to never have to block someone, and put their money in our pockets, but if some mistakes, if corrected in a reasonable time, are admissible, making many, in a short time, and not correcting them, will force us to proceed as we have written, in our articles. We have never had negative reviews, because no one has ever had valid reasons to do so. No one likes to be blocked, and especially to lose money, but security, cleanliness, organization, and order, must always be maintained.
Why is the security deposit paid in Euros, and the annual fee paid in US dollars?
Every payment, in our entire system, can be made in any currency, converting it into the currencies we accept. In this case, it is a decision, of our financial and economic management groups. The annual fees, and donations, are managed by our groups, connected to our official headquarters, in the United States of America. The guarantee deposits, are managed, mainly by groups connected, to our headquarters in Düsseldorf, Germany. For these reasons they are expressed in the 2 currencies, but anyone can pay in the currency they prefer. We will soon have available, also payments with our electronic currency, which through our systems, and our economic and financial projects, will have bank commissions practically close to 0, and in some cases free.
Are the payments safe, can I trust them?
All payments, of any kind, in all our activities are safe, encrypted, and untraceable. So, our entire system is undoubtedly reliable. Some transfers are made by money transfer companies, famous worldwide, so there will never be problems. You must always be very careful, to write your personal data, email address, and phone number, completely and accurately, to be able to prevent any problem, to be able to resolve quickly, any possible error, by those who pay. We, and our groups, are always available, to clarify and resolve everyone, in the best way.
What use do you make of our money, paid by us, as a security deposit?
All the money, from the security deposits, goes into our current account, in our bank, and remains blocked for a year. About a week before, you have to request the full refund, or partial refund, depending on the case, or use, to pay the annual fee, for the following year, based on the future type of user. In that case, we simply move the money, from our annual security deposit account, to our current account, for the annual fees.
Can I request the money in advance?
The money is always available, at any time, but there may be fees, in case of early withdrawal. Also, if by chance you send the money, before certain Holidays, or request refunds, during the Holidays, there are technical banking times, both to get the money to us, and to receive it back. Obviously, when you request to receive the money back, we will check the activities of each user, and if we find violations, not only will they be blocked immediately, but they will not receive a single cent back. In any case, when you request the money back, but also to use it, for example, to pay an annual fee, the user will be blocked until he decides, whether to stay with us, paying an annual fee, for the following year, or if he no longer wants to stay with us, freely deciding to leave, requesting the deletion, of his personal profile, receiving back the money from the security deposit.
Can I get my money back, if I am in good standing, by paying an annual fee?
Can I use the money in other ways if I am up to date with an annual fee?
The security deposit lasts for one year, but there are possible cases in which, for merits and good results obtained, a user can decide to pay an annual fee, to use the potential of a higher type of user. In that case, he will have to make a new payment, for the annual fee, and at the end of the year of the security deposit, he can receive his money back, or transfer it to the annual fees for subsequent periods.
In any case, the money entered into our system, as a security deposit, must remain blocked for a year, then it can be claimed, or used to pay annual fees, but it can be used, always at the end of a year, to pay annual fees for other users, or as a donation, or to buy gadgets, such as calendars, posters, and various official products, but even, if the person has the right type of user, it can be invested in our economic and financial activities.
