The Voat platform is 1) compromised 2) inefficient 3) ineffective
I have an idea to make a social platform specifically for pizzagate. It will be very easy for me to do, since I already have built a social network site for a different purpose, but can repurpose the code for this investigation.
The fact is, we have no organization here with what needs to be researched. We have diamond posts and stellar leads that are being buried beneath all the crap that is being posted.
The platform that I can make for Pizzagate would enable us to have a greater reach to the general public (you'll see how once it's built) and allow us to be much more effective and efficient with our investigatory process.
Before I go full speed ahead to put the website together, I need to hear your opinions.
1) Would you be willing to use the platform if I can successfully deliver (and yes, I can successfully deliver. I just need to make sure all the bases are covered, which I am discussing now).
2) How many of you would have time and interest to help moderate the site?
3) There are two potential domain names I've considered. We can keep pizzagate in the domain (pizzagatejustice.com) or we can do something more general (citizeninvestigators.com) Cast your vote for the name style you think would be best for this.
4) I am willing to put my time and effort into building this (and quickly too) however there obviously will be costs to maintain and improve the servers and maintain the site. I can't afford to pay for all this stuff as the site would grow and require more server space. Are you all willing to pitch in to help cover the costs of running the site once it grows?
I basically am looking for your commitment before I dive in. I think this will be really great for our cause, but I can't do it alone. I can promise that I can build a very kickass platform for us to improve and supercharge the public investigatory process, as well make it SUPER simple for us to spread information from the investigation to the masses. But I need your support. Let me know. If you're with me, I am ready to start doing this right now.

How so?
That sounds suspicioulsy like a way to get people to self seggregate themselves out of public attention and gather a whole bunch of traking data to hunt down people IRL.

Instead of causing a dilution of effort by creating yet-another-platform, why not create a solid gathering of all the best, well sourced info in one place that can be referred to as a media ready source?
A central repository of verified info that can be used by those awful "fact check" types and could help provide copypasta for forum people.
Think of it as a snopes for pizzagate, but one that all the diverse comminuties can contribute to when they dig out one of the diamonds. (btw, I hate snopes - they are full of shit shills)
Important things that can help lend credibility are the layout and formatting, meta tagging like "factual" or "silly conspiracy" and "disinformation" etc will make it clear that the site is a reliable reference.
I'll be sceptical, but open to observing how this progresses.
