Hi everyone!
Here is the info on my new forum/project.
Suggestions and questions would be appreciated.
From the announcement post:
># Read Before Posting
>## Forum Description And Statement of Purpose
>Note: This post was originally published here. I am republishing it here to serve as a general forum description. It has been modified slightly to better serve that purpose.
>I am starting a group dedicated to increasing group member SP so we can accomplish more and to fund a few projects I find worthy. These projects include supporting libertarian and anarchist content creators, helping Steemians from poorer parts of the world, and supporting other worthy projects on Steem. This forum will serve as home base. I also have a discord but not much is happening there until I get some help.

>The name is an homage to The Legion of Doom from the old Super Friends cartoon from the 80s. We will not actually be evil. :-p
>## Membership will be restricted based on the following criteria:
>1) What do you do with your SP?
If you aren't powering up a large percentage, then you are not eligible.
>2) What kind of curator are you?
Do you properly manage your SP so you aren't casting worthless votes? Are you even curating? If you are a poor curator then you are not eligible.
>3) Do you comment?
If you aren't making quality comments on at least a few blogs then you are not eligible.
>4) What kind of attitude do you have?
Negative Nancy need not apply. No time for whiners. Only positive people who are actively trying to make a difference in their lives, in the world, and on Steem are eligible.
>I am currently seeking like minded Steemians who are interested in leadership positions, I need help building this thing. This is a crucial time where we have the opportunity to build something great before Steem mass adoption happens. If you are new to Steem like me and haven't found a group or project that really resonates with you but aren't content to sit on the side lines, this may be the project for you.
>If you are interested leave a comment and I will get back to you when time permits. I work long hours so it may take a bit.

>You can support the project by making your post from this forum.
>You can also help upgrade the forum by sending any amount of Steem to @chainbb with the memo: ns:the-legion-of-evil-steemians
>The account @tloes has been created with the intention of being the official account for this project. If you would like to delegate or donate SP to this account it would be greatly appreciated.
>### Quality posts and comments that are made from within this forum will be upvoted.
>### Anarchist and libertarian content will be upvoted.

>My SP isn't huge yet but that will change. I am planning on conquering the world after all.
>Acceptable topics for posts in this forum include questions/discussion concerning this forum/group, group projects, anarchy/libertarian content, teaching new people how to increase SP in ways that are beneficial to the Steem ecosystem, and Steem citizenship i.e. how to be a good Steemian and get along well here.

>This forum does not exist to engage in flag wars. They are counterproductive. Please keep that sort of content elsewhere.

Nice, now I am starting to find my way around on SteemIt. Hello @wdougwatson, how are you. It looks like you have some big plans in the works. I found you through @nexusvortex777 and I identify closest with Anarcho-Primitivism and may be interested in helping out with your project. I'll read through your channel when I get some time to get a better understanding of your intentions. I hope you'll find a few minutes to take a peek at mine as well to see if I fit the criteria you list above. I am super new to blogging, so don't judge too harshly. I am still figuring everything out here. My channel says I have been a member since 2016, but I didn't start using the platform until about a month ago. I'll be posting an opinion piece on Freedom in a day or two you may enjoy. Nice to meet you and I hope to talk more about creating a free and voluntary society in the near future.

Firstly, I need all the help I can get.
Second, I don't want this to be my project. I thought of it, that is all. It isn't mine. It belongs to all of use who will work on it.
I'm familiar with anarcho-primitivism but I've never actually met someone on that path. This group is panarchist. All anarchists of all stripes are welcome. That includes anarcho-communist. Anarcho-communism not the same as state communism.
In the future when we finally get this message through to people, there will be many types of voluntary societies. Almost as many as there are people. That will be a good day.
We are working towards no masters, no slaves. Your particular flavor of anarchism is not an issue.

After looking through your profile, doing some thinking and reading your reply I am not sure I can be of the type of member you are looking for. I want to build a community, but don't feel having the word "evil" being associated with Anarchy is a very good idea. As a matter of fact, it's an awful idea. I am glad to follow, up vote good posts, etc., but I am not ready to delegate my SP away from myself or spend a bunch of time on a project other than mine. I am planning to backpack America living an Anarchist live and using SteemIt as the media platform to bring it to the masses. This takes up all of my time. I look forward to getting to know you and wish you luck with you project, my friend.
P.s. Communalism is compatible with Anarchy, but Communism isn't. As a matter of fact, the An-Coms are a very rigid and wild bunch. You'll be better off just calling it like it is: Communism is not compatible with freedom.

I actually don't expect that anyone will delegate sp. I figure this will be a long road. Good luck to you too man.
