Comment on Community Forums

The Community Forums are a place where we hope people will be able to explore issues in greater depths. This is a place where we all can educate and dialogue with each other online, and post what previously have been considered "SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS" or our "COMMUNITY PAGES" (things that do not fit the mold of exactly BEING an event yet still offer ways that people can participate like writing a letter to the editor, or a congressperson, a conference that might be happening in another state, reading an excellent inspiring book or learning more about a local issue.

Do you have a GREAT IDEA for a NEW FORUM TOPIC?

To add a new forum topic you need to be one of the following things:

• a) A Forum Moderator for The Dirt! (willing to help make sure spammers don't go crazy on the site with wierd posts)
• b) A Dirt Community Member Deemed Organizer * (ie. you post events with us )
• c) A Spreading Roots Spring Forth Editor willing to edit portions of the site
• d) Patient and Dedicated to propose your forum topic * to The Dirt!'s Web Administrators. To do this just:
  • email WebAdmin (at) thedirt.org
  • suggest the forum topic you are thinking of posting,
  • wait for them to post it up for you.

OR

• e) A SRSF Supporter*

*= these options are open to pretty much anyone
Thanks for your interest!

COMMENTING ON A PRE-EXISTING TOPIC

It is super easy to participate on an existing forum:

• a) Make sure you have an account and are logged in.
• b) At the bottom of a post you will see some blue links that might say something like "add new comment".
• c) Click on this, type your thoughts to your heart's content, and click "submit."
• d) Ta-DAH! That's it.
