Wel­come to TheX­Fac­to­ry .com…
 

I am your host Tan­genT D.‘Noir. The past 2 months have been a roller­coster ride. After a long strug­gle of switch­ing our web­space and set­tling in here, TheX­Fac­to­ry .com has final­ly returned on this Fri­day Feb­ru­ary 28th, 2025 at 2.14am.

This year’s short term goal is $100/year(normally $20/year for one cer­tifi­cate at a time) for the cost of unlim­it­ed domain SSL cer­tifi­cates for mem­bers who host sites with 1st lev­el domain names(example: DJversion666.com). These 1st lev­el domain names usu­al­ly for­ward to TheX­Fac­to­ry .com web­space with­out error(example: Your­name .com for­wards to TheX­Fac­to­ry .com/YourName, etc). How­ev­er, domains now require SSL cer­tifi­cates in order to pre­vent some browsers from dis­play­ing an SSL error and requir­ing the user to click through before foward­ing to it’s des­ti­na­tion. So this short term goal is very impor­tant for smooth arrival to mem­ber web­sites. Our long term Annu­al dona­tion goal is $900 which includes the $100 short term goal.

DONATE DIRECTLY HERE if you wish to help sup­port these and many oth­er goals. Also feel free to sub­mit a PUBLIC ONLY Cre­ative, Do It your­self, Do It Togeth­er, and/or Small Busi­ness list­ing HERE in exchange for your dona­tion. Both help to keep our web­site alive and kickin’.

SITE UPDATES…

As of Febu­rary 28, 2025, the fol­low­ing site activ­i­ty happened;

  2. Imple­ment­ed read­able links for list­ings. Short­er more read­able urls. Links switch for­ward to direct sin­gle list­ing or links switch for­ward to a list of mul­ti­ple list­ings with the same name. EXAMPLE OF DIRECT READABLE LINK: Bluesky-listing.TheXFactory.com/tangent EXAMPE OF LISTING LIST: Listings.TheXFactory.com/tangent

As of August 28th 2024;

As of August 28th 2024, due to out of con­trol hyper­ac­tive auto­mat­ed A.I. rules, Face­book has evicted/banned my pro­file account at facebook.com/TangenTNoir (Tan­genT D. Noir). My off­i­cal face­book page at facebook.com/TheXFactorycom and it’s groups(although they may still be vis­i­ble and pub­lic). How­ev­er, due to my banned sta­tus, I am shut out from mod­er­at­ing my attached pro­file, page, and relat­ed groups. So, please do not expect to con­tact me(TangenT D. Noir), my web­site page (TheX­Fac­to­ry .com :: Cre­ative Net­work), or any of the relat­ed groups on Facebook.

So, I am look­ing for the next best pop­u­lar social media site with sim­u­lar func­tion­al­i­ty to Face­book where I might find my Face­book friends. In the mean time, CLICK HERE to con­tact me and link up via email and send your con­tacts, pro­mo­tions, links, events, etc. Hope­ful­ly, this will help to reduce all of our depen­den­cies on the socials. Don’t for­get to check your spam fold­er for my email replies. The sub­ject line should con­tain a one word greet­ing, my name, and come direct­ly from an offi­cial email address at TheXFactory.com. That is all. Peace.
