On Social Media

On Self-Moderation and Moderation If you feel like the posts from a user are totally irrelevant to you, you might have no other option than simply block them temporarily by visiting their profile, and there is an option to block the profile (to unblock, there is a list of blocked people: https://plus.google.com/apps/activities/blocked_users ) -- it works, and will keep signal-to-noise ratio high. And, regarding moderation -- let's discuss criteria ( https://plus.google.com/112297796445914390564/posts/NheFcE9Dfrd ), let us know who would like to contribute the moderation. I would definitely love to contribute. (Posting from my auxiliary account, so that the blocked ones can also notice.)

HDR Photography community #signalflare Originally shared by Trey Ratcliff Like me, many of you loved Google+, it was an awesome social platform for creatives. I made a ton of friends on there and now I'm sad to see it will be shutting down soon. I realize Facebook is far from ideal but it's currently where the party's at so come join the fun in "Trey's Funky Lounge". It's a fun and safe community to meet other artists, share your photos, get feedback and much more. When you join be sure to share one of your favorite images and say hello. You'll have a ton of new friends in no time! Psst... don't tell anyone but each week we're giving away awesome stuff like Peak Design gear, my Lightroom Presets and more in the lounge... I'll see you there! Join the fun here --> https://www.facebook.com/groups/BecomingAnArtist/

Minecraft community #signalflare Originally shared by Ryan Hello Everyone. As most of you know Google Plus is closing in April. I won't go into the details of that because Mattias Johannessen when into that here: ( https://plus.google.com/u/4/102340491921205514686/posts/5LM2k83jZf3 ) Feel free to check that out as he provided a lot of useful information. So what will be happening to the community? We have decided it is in the best interest of the community to move over to discord, to promote a more real-time, closer community that may lead to even more great things in the future. We are currently working on updating the discord, so if you have any messages feel free to message me about them. In the meantime, please join the discord here: ( https://discord.gg/cUuhGs2 ). The same rules still apply there, but it is more of a relaxed environment where we can all get to know each other. There are plans for things to happen in the future with that discord so you don't wa...

The Knitting Lodge community #Signalflare Originally shared by Christina Blount Hello Everyone! So sad to see this community come to an end in a couple of weeks. It has been such a tremendous blessing in my life. You have supported my business, each other, and me personally over the last 7 years. You will be missed. Thank-you. What's next? Born out of this community was Hope Shack, a place for all of us to find encouragement as we travel through times of disorder or chaos in our lives. I am working to add a knitting circle/community/forum onto the existing site so that those that are finding comfort through handicraft, like Knitting for Therapy, have a place to gather and we can re-engage with our virtual knit nights. I absolutely love that idea, especially with all that you have taught me here. Follow along, if you'd like, so you'll be in the know.

Gaming community #signalflare Originally shared by Nathaniel Clay (Nat, Nathan, N8, NatT96) Please Join Us On MeWe: https://mewe.com/join/gaming4 Please Join Us On Amino: https://bit.ly/2GtljXA Please Join Us On r/PlusGames: https://goo.gl/QVCdfq My Goodbye To Gaming and Google+ (Still Migrate People!) Communty Archive Is In Progress I have had an amazing time moderating Google+ since 2015 and met amazing people in this community sharing great gaming related content. Google+ was a place I could always escape to and share content and opinions with people who have simular interest easily. While Google+ has had its site wide issues, I have been able to obtain so many online friends and have fun while doing so. I will miss this site more for the people ive grown it with, than the site itself.

#signalflare The R7 CNC router community has moved to https://forum.makerforums.info Originally shared by Michael K Johnson Time to move conversation to makerforums This community has been moved to https://forum.makerforums.info/c/cnc-routers/r7 — so any new posts or comments here won't be included in our historical record. Remember, log in at makerforums using the "use Google" button and the same account you use to log into Google+ now, and you will own the content you wrote here. See you there! https://forum.makerforums.info/c/cnc-routers/r7

#signalflare The OX CNC router community has moved to https://forum.makerforums.info along with years of content. Originally shared by Michael K Johnson Time to move to makerforums! Porting complete! This community has been ported to https://forum.makerforums.info/c/cnc-routers/ox — Thanks Anthony Bolgar for hosting! Just log in by clicking the "using Google" button with the same account you use to log into Google+ and you'll be recognized as owning all the content you wrote here!

#signalflare The K40 Laser community has moved from Google+ to makerforums, bringing its content along with it. Originally shared by Michael K Johnson This community's history has been ported to makerforums! This community has been ported to https://forum.makerforums.info/c/k40 — Thanks Anthony Bolgar for hosting! Just log in by clicking the "using Google" button with the same account you use to log into Google+ and you'll be recognized as owning all the content you wrote here! (Note that if you posted videos directly to Google+ they are not included in the import. To make them available on makerforums, post the videos to youtube, vimeo, or another video-sharing site and edit your post on makerforums to reference that video.) This is a one-shot migration of content from about a week ago, so this post, other new posts, and other comments won't make it to makerforums. https://forum.makerforums.info/c/k40

#signalflare The DIY CNC community has migrated to https://forum.makerforums.info Originally shared by Michael K Johnson This community, minus the tons of spam, has been ported to makerforums. Log into https://forum.makerforums.info/c/cnc-routers/DIY "with Google" using the same account you use for Google+ and you'll own all your content and be able to keep the conversation going — including past conversations! And you'll be able to stay connected to other maker communities there. If you are a spammer, you will find your account permanently blocked on makerforums. I might have missed one or two spammers in cleaning out the spam, but most of it is gone. With the spam out of the way, there's lots of interesting history there!

You'll have to get used to at-mentioning people (like almost everywhere else) instead of plus-mentioning them like you have here. You can also associate your login with other email addresses, and you can set up username/password accounts, including with two-factor authentication. You aren't tied to Googl...
