Still thinking of posting that garbage?
More sites to watch out on (because there's a lot of bs out there) - i'm not going hard bans on these ones (yet) but other mods might, so you might want to watch out on them and avoid them:
RealRawNews
BenjaminFulford
Conservative Beaver
BeforeItsNews
Vancouver Times
NeonNettle
Qofficial.net
IngersollLockwood
amg-news
Note: if you have been banned for using these, it's not the end of the world. Appeal, and we will explain that these are clickbait sites with bad information that shouldn't be posted here, and work with you to get you unbanned.
Why?
NO CLICKBAIT (that is what these sites are)
I quit posting links and starting threads after my 3 day ban. Now all you'll hear from me is what I have to say and that's it.
just dig into the story a bit before posting it, or PM the mods about the source if you are concerned of it. The more you go you will learn to spot bait vs. legit stuff. We're all growing & nobody perfect, let the ego go, pick back up and carry on. If you get banned the worst that happens is you start a new account lol
Ditto, and to reiterate the point, my journey with NewsPunch/YourNewsWire began when, as a green anon in early 2018, I posted and promulgated a YourNewsWire story on reddit /r/GreatAwakening, only to be embarrassed later on when I looked a bit deeper and noticed I had been skunked.
It's a learning/growing process. I'd encourage Merk not to stop posting, but to hone your posting skills. if you are posting quality or value, bans may sting, but they'll disappear.

So you got upset that the mods removed your low info / disinfo post? By all means, that is your right. It's a shame, we need anons willing to put in the work. I'm certain you mean well and wish to help us research - all you have to do is check your sources.
Kek, why do I get the feeling that someone created 7 sock puppet accounts and downvoted this obviously based and appropriate comment?
Yeah, noticed. Hhmmm….check the guys below me.

Did it make you realize that you shared disinformation? Did it change the way you vet information for yourself?
It doesn't matter what I think. I don't own this place.
Every pafrticipant here SHOULD have the attitude and heart that "I own this place, so I'm going to be responsible about how I engage with it".
Do you think the mods own this place? kek. No.
The mods serve here, the purpose of the board, but the real owners are we, the participants. "owning" is about attitude and responsibility, not about control.
Of course it matters what you think! You are a voter, that alone means you should be as well informed as possible!
Also good for mental health, being able to communicate your thoughts and opinions with others, etc.
