There is the OP, followed by level one of posts, which can have their own second level, but not a third - though a third, etc would be awesome because it would allow someone to have a full on conversation about that single higher idea - the main thing to be concerned about would be the eventual drifting of that conversation would would belong to a high yet post. It's not a bad concept. I've found that whatever FB does, though, results in just.... no meaningful conversation. It's very drifting and lost. Maybe it is because they don't have a good way to view it. But I never seen meaningful conversations there, just this weird meandering of comments. It makes it easy to respond and leave and never to engage or find closure. It's good for gossip, bad for peer review. I think that's just the way people treat it - I've had some (though very few) good fully engaged conversations on FB. Yeah, that's very possible. But I think the interface plays a role in encouraging behaviour. LIke it never shows what is relevant. yeah - I have no idea how FB decides what to show you? I use a filter that always pulls the page back to chronological order. Shit thing though - FB reposts the same thing like 4 times sometimes, it's ridiculous

No, for the things that happened at work that should have been recorded. That's how you get yourself beaten. They actually got security camera footage of a government official shoving an employee. Harder to beat up and intimidate a mounted camera in the corner.

No one will have a general interest or want to follow "all topics about birthdays." But they will want to follow "all topics about Windows 2016". While I do agree with this, why does this exist? I did not make said topic. https://mangolassi.it/tags/jared busch It's a tag for speakers and content creators. e.g. if someone is looking for content by "Jared Busch" in the context of conference speaker, book writer or so forth - not as community member. If that makes sense.

@WrCombs said in Getting Started for NTG Interns: Thank you for the advice! I look forward to learning more from you As you learn - don't forget that sometimes you have to question. There have been countless times that I have 'taught' something only to learn of a different and sometimes better way of doing the same task.

@RojoLoco So tempted to change my avatar...

I just received identical email. Not worth the time to even fill the web form.

@DustinB3403 said: I think the goal of this feature is to bury post that are inappropriate. That Facebook is attempting to filter out content based on user input, rather than everything getting posted to your wall. Or, more likely IMHO, it is to encourage debate making people spend more time no the site.
