Topic
A continuing subject, question, person, event, list, issue, or timeline under which Logs are collected.
How TopicLogs Works
A Topic is a continuing subject or timeline. Logs are individual updates, facts, events, references, images, or videos collected beneath it. TopicLogs combines social participation with structured, growing knowledge timelines. Instead of disconnected posts, people create Topics and continuously add relevant Logs. Accuracy, relevance, evidence, and respectful discussion are expected.
What is what?
Log
One relevant contribution inside a Topic: an event, fact, update, source, image, video, or documented point. An approved Log is the canonical record even when linked to more than one Topic.
Feed
Use the feeds to discover structured content.
- Topics: discover Topics.
- Logs: see individual recent or relevant Logs.
- Following: see updates from Topics you follow.
Follow
Following a Topic helps you receive notifications and find its future approved updates.
Useful
The Useful control marks a Topic or Log as useful and shows its usefulness count. It is not a Like/Dislike rating. Comment reactions are a separate system.
Discussion
Topics and Logs each have a discussion. Users can comment and make one-level replies. Comments can be Liked or Disliked. Respectful disagreement is welcome; abusive comments can be reported.
Creator profile
A creator avatar or name opens that person’s public profile, which lists their public Topics and Logs.
Hashtags and categories
Topic hashtags help label Topics and can open a filtered Topics list. Topic owners can define Log categories for organizing Logs within that Topic. No trending-hashtag feature is promised.
Suggest another Topic
An approved canonical Log can be suggested for another relevant Topic. The target Topic owner, editor, or administrator reviews it. Approval reuses the original Log—no duplicate copy or discussion is created. A suggestion currently earns no reward. Do not suggest irrelevant Topics or spam the review queue.

Monitor notifications, your public profile contributions, and your wallet where applicable.
Create a good Topic
Search first, then define a subject that can grow coherently over time.
- Use a specific, understandable title and a clearly defined scope.
- Add a useful description and, where needed, Topic-specific Log guidelines.
- Use only relevant hashtags and categories.
- Do not recreate an existing Topic with slightly different wording.
- Do not state an allegation as established fact without reliable supporting material.
- A Topic may document competing claims, but distinguish allegations, opinions, confirmed facts, and disputed information.
Neutral examples
- City flood recovery timeline — official notices, verified damage reports, and dated recovery updates.
- Statements and court filings in a public case — attributed claims and documented rulings, not assumed guilt.
- Solar mission milestones — launches, published results, and agency updates.
Add a good Log
A strong Log explains what happened or what the documented point is, when and where it happened, who is involved, what supports it, and why it directly belongs in the selected Topic.
- Keep one focused point per Log, with a clear title and concise body.
- Add a source or reference where possible. Event date/time is distinct from the date the Log was posted.
- You may attach up to five genuine supporting images, each up to 20 MB. Respect copyright and privacy.
- You may upload one supported MP4, MOV, WebM, or 3GP video up to 100 MB and two minutes. Preview and confirm the crop (or Original); processing may continue after submission.
- Alternatively, add one supported external YouTube, Facebook, X/Twitter, or TikTok media link. Do not use both an uploaded video and video link.
- Images and videos must genuinely support the Log. Do not repeat an existing Log.
- A canonical Log linked to several Topics remains one Log with one Discussion thread.
- New Logs normally remain pending until reviewed. Pending Logs are not necessarily public and approval is not guaranteed.
Moderation, editors, and multi-Topic linking
Moderation protects relevance, safety, funding, and the canonical record.
- Submitted Logs can be approved or rejected by an authorized Topic owner, accepted Topic editor, or administrator. A rejected or pending Log does not automatically become public.
- Topic owners can invite registered users as editors. Editors can review Logs for assigned Topics; administrators retain platform-wide controls.
- Authorized users can link approved canonical Logs to multiple Topics. Ordinary users use Suggest another Topic; the target Topic’s owner, editor, or administrator decides.
- An approved link reuses the original Log, creator attribution, media, usefulness, and Discussion. It does not create a duplicate Log.
- Suggesting or approving another Topic link currently creates no reward transaction. Approval, publication, or income is never promised.
Prohibited Topics and Logs
The warning icon, border, heading, and text together identify this safety section. Do not create, upload, link to, or coordinate:
- Child sexual abuse or exploitation material; sexual exploitation; or non-consensual intimate content.
- Credible threats, incitement, or instructions facilitating violence; targeted harassment; or dehumanizing hate.
- Doxxing or private personal information; impersonation; or misleading identity claims.
- Illegal goods or services, instructions enabling serious wrongdoing, malware, phishing, scams, or fraud.
- Spam, mass promotion, irrelevant advertising, duplicate Topics, or duplicate Logs.
- Copyright-infringing uploads or extremely graphic material without legitimate public-interest context.
- Deliberately fabricated evidence, or manipulated media deceptively presented as authentic.
- False allegations presented as proven fact; Logs unrelated to the selected Topic; or content primarily intended to inflame hostility rather than document information.
- Attempts to exploit rewards, referrals, linking, usefulness, comment reactions, reporting, or moderation.
Sensitive subjects require care
Political, religious, historical, conflict, corruption, and human-rights Topics are not automatically prohibited. They require careful wording, relevant evidence, attribution, context, and compliance with safety and privacy rules.
“According to X,” “X alleged,” and “court records state” have different meanings from declaring an unverified allegation as fact. Label satire and opinion appropriately.
TopicLogs may reject, restrict, remove, or review content and accounts under its policies.
This Guidance summarizes the rules; the Terms control where applicable. Read the Terms.
How earning works
TopicLogs does not promise income. Most activity is not automatically rewarded.
- Some Topics are reward-enabled. Check the displayed reward status before submitting.
- For an eligible Log, a reward snapshot may be saved at submission from active funding available at that time. The Log must pass moderation.
- Approval does not override missing or invalid funding, eligibility, transaction, or anti-abuse safeguards. Rejected, duplicate, abusive, irrelevant, or ineligible Logs earn nothing.
- A direct inviter receives 10% of a qualifying approved-Log gross reward and the author receives the remainder. Signup alone, indirect referrals, and unrewarded activity earn no referral commission.
- Suggesting another Topic for a canonical Log currently earns no reward.
- Wallet balance and available withdrawal amount can differ. The current minimum withdrawal request is $10.00. Rewards, rates, and availability can vary and are not guaranteed.
Contribute because the information is accurate and useful—not merely to seek a reward.
Wallet and withdrawals
- Posted rewards and direct-referral commission appear in wallet history. Deposits and withdrawals are reviewed.
- Available balance can be lower than wallet balance because pending or approved withdrawals reserve funds; pending funded-Log commitments may also reserve a funder’s money.
- A withdrawal must be at least $10.00 and cannot exceed the available amount. Approval is not payment: an approved request stays reserved until paid or rejected.
