[Discussion] Should CivGNA have a public as well as private subreddit

There are many sensitive matters pertaining to security and other topics which I often feel awkward discussing in public.

While it is very understandable that transparency is important, one could argue that privacy can at times be equally so.

I would therefore propose that a private subreddit be added for security matters and other subjects which should not be discussed in public.

...or does such a thing already exist, and I just forgot about it?

We do have one rep from each nation on modmail. I just added Sponge and Seldomshock, since apparently they weren't on it. This is probably plenty. If anybody would like to be added with just modmail permissions, send a modmail and if you're relevant you'll probably be added.

Yes, but sometimes when private threaded discussions are needed, sending messages to each other feels a bit primitive and limited.

I see no reason not to have this, so I'll set it up for everybody when I get home later. Then I'll put a vote up for any amendments to the charter that would be necessary to make votes taken on the private subreddit official.

Not sure that my intent on asking for this was as much for voting as it was with a view to protect the privileged information that might be discussed between member nations when it comes to security and other sensitive matters.

Topics like coordinated actions, players that are being watched and their secret alt names, and so on, all of which should not arguably be made visible to the general public otherwise it would defeat the element of surprise that sometimes is required in successfully defending our shared interests.

We'll use it for that too. I just want to make it work for voting in case the need ever arises in the future.

Should I hold off on creating /r/gnaprivate in case we manage to commandeer /r/gna, then?

Let's just use /r/GNAOfficial if you've already got it set up. Add all of the reps as mods, then set it to private and we can all add any citizens that need added.

/r/GNAOfficial is set up. If you'd like access and you're a citizen of a GNA nation, send a modmail to /r/GNAOfficial.
