Well, like with all blogs systems, you can create your own categories.

I forgot to mention that, parallel to the forums integrated blogs sub-system, I've been installing an independent full-featured blogs system. This will be further restricted to more serious bloggers.

This installation is also taking some testing of the usual configuration, and further tweaking in the configuration of the Apache web server to allow each blog to be a subdomain of Stirpes.

So that the final result will be in the form of blogname.stirpes.net.

Does this mean that anyone who doesnt fit the Stirpes profile (catholic ethno-nationalist) is disqualified? (just wondering, I dont need a blog myself)

Incorrect. European ethnic nationalism.

No, we have a dark secret here. We're all closet Catholics!

Of course. Everyone who wants to join the blog community will have to send a certificate issued by his local bishop ascertaining that he is a devout Catholic.

No. But I can see the malice in your comment.

It means that anyone who we cannot assure that he is politically serious and responsible, should not be left to jeopardize a project.

Off the top of my head, Errigal, Carnyx or Gnist are not, to the best of my knowledge, Catholic and they would be on top of my list to get one, at the two levels mentioned.

I don't plan to elect who should be given a blog. I will propose my candidates like all other members of the Staff should do. And then we should decide together. At a later stage, these decisions should be discussed and taken by the group of bloggers.

I hope that you won't have a problem if we set as a priority, that projects should have a viability and effectiveness. Instead of anarchically throwing resources to waste.

Some time ago some guys here realized an important and hightly effective quality project. Suddenly someone from the side of the lunatic fringe asked: "are you going to stay up on a pedestal, or are you going to give support to 'options'?"

Which translates to: "what an excellent project, I hope that you will let us trash it."

(just wondering, I dont need a blog myself)

Fine. FYI, there is still an alternative option, which is moderated blogs.

And also, if you have a problem with anyone's political or spiritual beliefs, including myself, it might be a good idea that you spoke it out in the open.

My Baptism certificate?

Alright, since all missing is the links in the forums navbar and in the user's profile, and a few other minor things, you can see what the blogs main page looks like, here:

Stirpes - Blogs

Or a user's blog with an entry article:

Stirpes - Gnist

Err, whats the difference except for Catholic? Well, I would correct that to European & ethno-nationalist to avoid any confusion.

I certainly dont have any problems with any specific group, but I was just curious as to who you see as responsible and serious. I mean, how you determine it, and one way to determine that is by not electing people that diverge too much from the general trends, and therefore would less likely be subject to moderation seeing as the trends also apply to the admins. (which would disqualify me)

Divergences and responsible thinking and acting are two different things.

I don't mind if you have an idea of Europe different to mine. Which is what I imagine a part of what you were getting at. So if you believe in some sort of homogeneized Europe where ethnic preservation and national sovereignty are secondary, my disagreement with you is not such that I should consider you a foe, for the time being. Nor a friend, for that matter.

But you have to realize that, as with everything in life, there are hierarchical orders and priorities. I wouldn't dream of telling you how you must put your house in order. And certainly I'm not going to admit that you tell me how to do it with mine.

Those are the basics. From that point on, we can discuss the terms upon which Europe should be built. And we would do it with the confidence that we would be building up from right and solid foundations.

This is an idea of Europeanism much different to the construction of a super-state, to the image of the United States of America. Which should not be called Europeanism but Pan-Europeanism.

In Europe, ethnic preservation and national sovereignty does not equal to less Europe. It equals Europe. No more and no less.

and therefore would less likely be subject to moderation seeing as the trends also apply to the admins. (which would disqualify me)

You are very wrong if you believe that my intention is to marginalize you. On the contrary, my intention, if any, would be to see at which point we can meet within the limits of what's reasonable and realistic, and converge; so that you can be accommodated in the project without this being a source for conflicts.

And where say you I mean others as well. Like, for example, Der.

The fact that we have different opinions doesnt mean I agree with any of what you said. But it is not the first time you try to demonize me by misrepresenting me as an advocate of some extreme kind of Pan-European super-state with the purpose of melting every national identity into some homogeneous mass, which is not at all what I stand for. I am open to discuss such ideas, but I dont advocate them.

That pretty much answers the question. Its not that I was unconfident as to where you stood, but I just wanted to hear it. I am not going to tell you how to "put your house in order", but things are a lot easier when I can at least ask you how you wish it to be put.

That's victimism.

I am clear as a crystal as to where I stand. I have always been. I am no good at hiding my feelings, or my thoughts. What you see is what you get.
