Conflingo in 30 seconds

Four principles explain how the platform organises conversations and protects participation.

Topic communities

People can create and follow topics. Active tags gradually develop into spaces around real interests.

Local conversations

Find posts for a nearby area, city, municipality or country without publishing a precise location.

Identity on your terms

Use a public profile when you want visibility, or an anonymous identity when the topic should come first.

Moderation and trust

Checks against harassment, spam, duplicates and scam-like content are designed to keep standards higher.

The shortest path to understanding what Conflingo is, what requires an account and how to begin.

Overview

What is Conflingo?

Conflingo is a moderated social discussion network where conversations are organised by user-created topics, places or both. Learn moreShow less

Conflingo is built around a simple idea: people should be able to find and create conversations based on what they care about and where the content is relevant.

Topics created by peopleA tag can gather posts and followers and gradually develop into a community of its own.
Local spacesCities, municipalities, nearby areas and countries can act as geographic gathering points.
Safer participationModeration and optional anonymity are designed to make participation easier without letting noise take over.

News, polls, tests, football, matching and chat are supporting parts of the same platform. You do not need to understand all of them before joining a conversation.

You can read without an account. Create one when you want to follow tags, vote, comment, publish or use social features.
No account needed

What can I do without an account?

You can browse public news, football content, discussions and many tests. An account is needed when an action must be saved or connected to you. Learn moreShow less

Public pages are designed to be useful before registration. You can normally read content and inspect public activity without creating an account.

An account is required for actions such as voting, commenting, publishing, saving progress, receiving account notifications or using matching and chat. Some actions may also require email verification or sufficient account access.

Registration should be a step toward participation—not a barrier to understanding what the platform offers.
Free access

Does it cost anything to use Conflingo?

Conflingo’s core public and social features are currently free to use. The platform is primarily funded through advertising and selected commercial partnerships. Learn moreShow less

You can browse and use the core Conflingo experience without paying a subscription. Advertising and selected affiliate relationships may help fund operation and development.

This help center describes the product as it works now. Any change that affects payment, access or eligibility should be communicated clearly where the relevant feature is used.

Multiple languages

Which languages are available?

English and Norwegian are supported across the main platform, while selected news and football experiences may also be available in Spanish. Learn moreShow less

Language versions are separated so that navigation, content and discussions remain understandable for each audience. In discussion areas, a language choice or filter can keep posts within the appropriate language community.

The selector on this page switches between the English and Norwegian help centers. Availability can vary between individual product areas.

Account

How do I create an account?

Register with an email address and password or continue with Google. Some participation features require email verification. Learn moreShow less
RegisterUse email and password or the Google sign-in option.
VerifyConfirm your email when a feature requires a verified account.
ChooseUse a public profile, anonymous participation or optional matching.

If you have forgotten your password, use Forgot Password. A reset link is time-limited and should only be used by the account owner.

Account control

What can I change in Settings?

Settings is where you manage account details, verification, profile visibility, matching preferences, password and account deletion. Learn moreShow less

Open your profile and use the gear icon to reach account settings. Available controls may include username, password, optional profile information, email verification, matching participation and deletion tools.

Go to Settings to view the controls currently available for your account.

Account deletion is a serious action. Read the confirmation text carefully so you understand which account information and public contributions are included.

Topics & places

How to find, create and follow user-defined topics and local areas.

Topics

How do user-created topic tags work?

Topic tags gather posts and followers around an interest. Existing tags are suggested first, and the system tries to prevent duplicates and spelling variants. Learn moreShow less

When publishing, you can choose existing topics or propose a new one. Autocomplete and similarity checks try to connect spelling variants and typos to the correct tag so the same community is not split unnecessarily.

World of Warcraft Personal finance Parenting

As more people use and follow the same tag, it gradually becomes a stronger signal in search, feeds and recommendations.

Places

How do location tags work?

A location tag describes where a post is relevant. It can represent a nearby area, city, municipality, region or country. Learn moreShow less

Location does not necessarily mean where the author is currently standing. Someone can select Torrevieja because the post concerns that area while planning a trip from another country.

Ciudad Quesada Torrevieja Spain

You normally choose a maximum of one location per post so geographic relevance stays clear.

Optional

What does “Near You” do?

Near You uses a location you actively approve to suggest existing Conflingo places in the surrounding area. Learn moreShow less

The feature starts only after you press the button and approve the browser request. Conflingo uses the result to suggest local tags that already exist, such as nearby cities or municipalities.

  • You can keep the section closed and use manual search instead.
  • You choose which suggested area is relevant.
  • Precise coordinates are not published as part of the post.
Near You is a shortcut to local tags—not a requirement to reveal or display where you are.
Combination

Does a post need both a topic and a location?

No. A post can use only a topic, only a location or both. At least one of the two is normally required. Learn moreShow less
Topic onlyUse this when the conversation concerns an interest without a geographic boundary.
Location onlyUse this for local questions where the subject is already clear from the title and content.
Topic + locationUse both when interest and place matter, such as “Families + Torrevieja”.
Personal feed

How do I follow a topic or place?

Use the star beside a tag to follow it. It can then become a persistent filter and a clear signal in your feed. Learn moreShow less

You can follow both topic and location tags. Following makes it easier to return to communities you care about without requiring a hidden algorithm to guess everything.

Feed behaviour and notifications can develop further as more active tags and local communities grow.

Explore Conflingo

How news, football, discussions, polls, tests and search work as products.

Core feature

How do news articles work?

Conflingo turns current stories into concise articles with source context, discussion and—when relevant—polls or AI-assisted summaries. Learn moreShow less

News is designed to be readable quickly while still giving you a path to deeper context. A story may include a concise article, source information, publication or update details, an open comment section and a relevant poll.

You can challenge the framing, add information or discuss implications below the article. Public discussion is intended to complement the article—not replace the underlying sources.

Visit the Norwegian news section at conflingo.com/no/nyheter or the English version at conflingo.com/news.

Technical and editorial details

Some articles may be created or summarized with AI assistance based on identified source material. The article should make source context and the role of automation understandable. Automated output can be wrong or incomplete, so correction and reporting mechanisms remain important.

Core feature

What does the football section provide?

Match pages can combine schedules, model probabilities, statistics, odds context, lineups, polls, analysis, results and discussion. Learn moreShow less

Before a match, a page may show kickoff information, teams, model probabilities, available statistics, expected lineups, a match poll and pre-match discussion. After the match, the same page can be updated with the result and post-match context.

How to interpret predictions

  • A probability is an estimate, not a guarantee.
  • A higher probability does not mean an outcome is certain.
  • Injuries, lineups, tactical changes and late information can alter the real-world situation.
  • Model output should be considered alongside supporting data and your own judgment.
Football predictions are informational. They should not be treated as risk-free advice or a promise of a betting outcome.
Feed

How does the discussion feed work?

The feed can be sorted and filtered by newest, trending, followed topics, locations and specific tags. Learn moreShow less

The discussion feed is designed for clearer user control. You can view new or popular posts, search for a tag, combine filters and follow communities you want to return to.

  • Topics: interests and communities created through use.
  • Places: local areas, cities, municipalities or countries.
  • Near You: optional suggestions based on browser location permission.
  • Controversial/NSFW: kept as a separate, explicit control.

This reduces dependence on rigid categories and makes what people actually follow increasingly important.

Interactive

How do polls work?

Polls provide a quick way to express a position on an article, match or discussion. Results represent participating users—not the wider population. Learn moreShow less

A poll should ask a clear question that is directly connected to the page. Depending on the poll, you may be able to vote while it is open and view the result after voting or after the poll closes.

Poll results are not scientific unless the poll explicitly uses a valid sampling method. They show the distribution among users who chose to participate.

When an AI summary includes poll information, the result should only be incorporated after the poll has closed. This avoids presenting an incomplete live result as a settled conclusion.
Interactive tools

How do tests and practice tools work?

Tests turn a series of answers into a result with an explanation. The result should be understood within the limits stated on the individual test. Learn moreShow less

Conflingo includes different types of tests and practice experiences. Some are entertainment or self-reflection tools; others are designed to practise a particular question format, such as matrix reasoning.

Important distinctions

  • A self-assessment result is not a medical or psychological diagnosis.
  • A practice test is not automatically equivalent to an official assessment.
  • A score is only meaningful in relation to the method, questions and comparison basis used by that test.
  • Individual test pages should explain whether an account is needed and whether results are stored.
For health, mental-health or safety concerns, use qualified professional advice rather than relying on an online test result.
Discovery

How does search work on Conflingo?

Search helps locate indexed posts and pages. Very new content may take time to appear when discovery depends on external indexing. Learn moreShow less

Search can be found in the discussion interface and in other site navigation areas. It is most reliable for public content that has already been indexed.

Technical details

The current search experience uses Google’s Custom Search API for public indexed content. Newly published pages may not appear immediately because external indexing is not instant.

Participate

Create posts, comment, vote and decide how your identity is shown to other users.

Your choice

What is the difference between anonymous and public participation?

A public profile shows the identity you chose for Conflingo. Anonymous participation uses an alias so your public profile is not displayed in that discussion. Learn moreShow less

Anonymous participation is intended to let you discuss sensitive, controversial or personal topics without displaying your public username and profile image to other participants.

An alias can remain consistent within the same post so replies are understandable, while a different discussion can use a different alias. This reduces casual cross-linking of your activity by other users.

Anonymous to other users does not mean invisible to the service. Conflingo may still need account, security and abuse-prevention data to operate the platform and enforce its rules.
Publishing

How do I create a post?

Write a clear title and content, then choose at least one topic or one location. You can use both. Learn moreShow less
Write the postUse a clear title and enough context for other people to understand the conversation.
Choose relevanceAdd 1–5 topic tags, one location or a combination.
Improve it when usefulAdd an image, video, YouTube link or poll when it adds value.
PublishAutomated checks review safety, quality, duplicates and valid tags.
Families Torrevieja
A selected location counts as a tag. You do not need a topic tag when the post already has a valid location.
Discussion

How do comments and replies work?

Comment below a post and reply within the discussion. Your alias stays consistent within that post so other readers can follow the conversation. Learn moreShow less

Comments are attached to the specific post. Replies preserve context, while the consistent alias makes it possible to recognise the same anonymous participant within that discussion.

Automatically blocked comments may be reviewed so moderation errors can be corrected when context changes the meaning.

You can review previous comments and received replies on your comments and replies page.

Feedback signal

How do likes, dislikes and post votes work?

Voting lets you react quickly to posts and comments. Other users see totals, while your individual choice is not publicly attached to your profile. Learn moreShow less

Votes can influence ranking, indicate agreement or disagreement, contribute to account progress and—if you opt into matching—help estimate compatibility.

You may be able to change or remove a vote. Bulk deletion of interaction data can be rate-limited to reduce manipulation and vote abuse.

A downvote should express disagreement or low value. It should not be used as a substitute for harassment, coordinated targeting or repeated abuse.
Public media

Who can see media in public posts?

Media attached to a public post should be treated as public. Anonymous posting hides your public profile, not the content you publish. Learn moreShow less

Images, video and embedded media in a public post can be viewed by anyone who can access that page. Do not upload private documents, personal identifiers or material you do not have permission to share.

Anonymous participation protects how your account is displayed to ordinary readers; it does not make public media private.

Safety & transparency

How moderation, AI, fact-checking, sources, privacy, advertising and reporting are handled.

Safety

How is content moderated?

Conflingo combines automated checks, rules and human review to reduce harassment, spam, duplicates and harmful content. Learn moreShow less

Moderation is designed to protect the conversation without making legitimate disagreement impossible. Checks can assess safety, meaningful content, duplication, suspicious links and basic quality requirements.

What strong moderation means in practice

  • Harassment and targeted bullying should not be normalised.
  • Spam, point farming and repeated duplicates can be blocked.
  • Controversial opinions may be allowed when expressed without illegal or harmful content.
  • Reported or uncertain cases can be routed for further review.
The goal is not to remove disagreement. It is to separate real discussion from abuse and noise.
User safety

What should I report?

Report content that may break the rules, expose private information, impersonate someone, contain dangerous material or require correction. Learn moreShow less

A report should identify the specific content and the reason it may be harmful or inaccurate. Disagreement alone is normally not a rules violation.

  • Threats, targeted harassment or encouragement of harm
  • Private personal information or non-consensual intimate material
  • Spam, scams, impersonation or coordinated manipulation
  • Illegal content or instructions that create immediate danger
  • Material factual errors in a Conflingo article or automated summary
Open the Trust & Safety center for reporting, blocked people and your own cases.
Transparent automation

Where is artificial intelligence used?

AI is used for distinct tasks such as moderation, article assistance, Quick Brief summaries, automated discussion prompts and source-based fact-checking. Learn moreShow less

“AI” does not describe one single system or one level of reliability. Conflingo uses automation for several separate purposes, and each purpose should be explained on its own terms.

Moderation assistance

AI can help identify harassment, spam, unsafe content and possible rule violations. This is a first-pass safety mechanism, not infallible human judgment.

AI-assisted news production

AI may help structure or summarize information from identified source material. Articles should provide enough source and publication context for readers to evaluate the information.

AI Quick Brief

A Quick Brief can summarize the article, describe the main themes in the comment discussion and summarize a poll after the poll has closed. It should not silently treat an open poll as a finished result.

Automated discussion content

Automated accounts may add questions or perspectives to low-activity discussions. This content is not a verified human opinion and should not be treated as evidence that a real user holds that view.

Automated fact-checking

AI can compare a claim with public sources and generate a source-backed explanation. The result is an aid to evaluation—not an unquestionable final verdict.

Transparency principle: automated summaries, analysis or discussion content should be distinguishable from ordinary user contributions and should never be presented as a specific real person’s independent judgment.
AI summary

What is an AI Quick Brief?

It is a concise orientation box that can summarize the article, the discussion and a completed poll without replacing the full page. Learn moreShow less

The brief is meant to help a reader understand the page quickly before deciding what to read in full. A useful brief keeps its information sources separate:

  • Article: the central facts or claims presented on the page.
  • Discussion: the main themes raised by participants, without pretending the comments are representative of everyone.
  • Poll: the final result only after voting has closed.
An AI brief can omit nuance or misunderstand context. It should be treated as navigation, not as a substitute for the article, comments, sources or final poll data.
Source-based analysis

How does fact-checking work?

A fact-check can compare a claim with public sources and show a concise assessment with links. It is automated analysis, not an absolute verdict. Learn moreShow less

Fact-checking can be triggered for news or user-created posts that contain claims requiring verification. The system compares the claim with accessible sources and produces a summary of what those sources support.

Readers should inspect cited sources, publication dates and whether the evidence actually addresses the claim. Users may also be able to react to the assessment, and substantial disagreement can be shown as a caution.

A strong fact-check explains its reasoning and sources. A label without evidence is not enough.
Privacy

What data can Conflingo store?

Conflingo can store account, security, content and optional profile data needed to operate the service. The privacy policy provides the controlling details. Learn moreShow less

Depending on the features you use, stored information can include:

  • Account identifiers such as email address and chosen username
  • Security information such as IP address, device data and abuse-prevention signals
  • Posts, comments, votes and other actions needed to provide platform functions
  • Optional profile and matching information you choose to provide
  • Cookie and analytics choices where applicable

Use account controls to manage available deletion and privacy options. Read the full Privacy Policy for the legal description of purposes, retention, processors and rights.

Avoid absolute assumptions about online privacy. Do not share passwords, government identifiers, financial credentials or highly sensitive media through a social platform.
Transparency

How are advertising and cookies used?

Advertising can fund the service, but it should remain clearly separate from user content and follow higher standards against deceptive and scam-like promotion. Learn moreShow less

Conflingo may use advertising and selected commercial relationships to fund operation and development. Ads should be labelled and visually separated from posts, comments and other user contributions.

Advertising principles

  • Ads should not impersonate user posts, system alerts or personal messages.
  • Misleading promises, false guarantees and scam-like investment claims are not an acceptable product standard.
  • Consent and cookies should follow the choices and privacy information presented to the user.

External advertising systems can change, but the product goal is clearer control and greater trust than advertising designed to trick someone into a click.

Points & progress

The difference between points, XP, levels, streaks and rewards—without stale hardcoded amounts.

Engagement rewards

How can I earn points?

Eligible activity can earn points, including participation, referrals, account milestones and selected features. Current amounts and limits are shown where the action occurs. Learn moreShow less

Points are intended to reward genuine participation rather than repetitive activity. Depending on current rules, qualifying actions can include voting, commenting, sharing, referrals, verification, streaks or other clearly identified contributions.

Because amounts, limits and eligibility rules can change, this help center does not hardcode point values. The current value should be displayed at the action, in your progress interface or in the rewards shop.

Referral tools and your current referral status are available through your profile.

If a displayed amount conflicts with another page, the live value shown in the relevant feature should be treated as current and the outdated text should be corrected.
Account progress

What is the difference between points and XP?

XP represents account progress and trust. Points are a separate reward balance. An activity may affect one, both or neither depending on current rules. Learn moreShow less

XP helps represent sustained participation and can determine level or feature access. Points are a reward balance that may be used where redemption is available.

Exact actions, limits and multipliers should come from the live reward configuration rather than static help text. View the current progress explanation at conflingo.com/levelup.

Trust controls

Why can some features require a level?

Gradual access makes automated abuse more expensive and gives new accounts time to establish normal activity before using higher-impact features. Learn moreShow less

Feature access can depend on account level, email verification, account standing or other anti-abuse requirements. This is intended to reduce spam without requiring payment.

Unlock rules can change as the platform learns which controls are effective. The current overview is shown at conflingo.com/levelup.

Motivation

What is a streak?

A streak recognises qualifying activity across consecutive days and can affect progress according to the current rules shown in your account. Learn moreShow less

Streaks are designed as a lightweight motivation tool. A qualifying daily action can continue the streak, while a missed qualifying period can reset it.

The live progress page explains current qualifying actions and effects at conflingo.com/levelup.

Abuse prevention

How can progress systems reduce bots and spam?

Requiring normal participation before high-impact actions makes instant mass abuse harder, especially when combined with verification and rate limits. Learn moreShow less

XP and levels are only one part of abuse prevention. Effective protection can also use email verification, action limits, content moderation, device or network signals and manual review.

No single control proves that an account is human. The purpose is to increase the cost of abuse while keeping ordinary participation straightforward. Current access requirements are described at conflingo.com/levelup.

Matching & chat

Optional compatibility matching, private chat, media controls and browser notifications.

Opt-in

How does matching work?

Matching is optional and can use your interaction patterns and selected profile information to suggest users who may share interests or viewpoints. Learn moreShow less

When you opt in, the matching system can compare relevant signals such as votes and interests to identify possible compatibility. A suggested match is only a recommendation; it does not prove that two people are safe, truthful or personally compatible.

You can enable or disable participation through account settings. Read the feature-specific explanation at matching.

Use normal online-safety judgment. Do not assume that matching verifies identity, background or intentions.
Private feature

How does private chat work?

After a match or accepted connection, participants can use a private chat to exchange supported messages and media. Learn moreShow less

Chat is available between connected users. Supported content can include text, links and media. Available controls may allow message deletion and ending the connection through unmatching.

Private chat is not the same as end-to-end encrypted messaging unless the product explicitly states and verifies that design. Conflingo uses technical access controls and encrypted network transport, but users should still avoid sharing highly sensitive credentials or documents.

Private media

Is it safe to share photos and media in chat?

Chat media is restricted to the relevant conversation, but no online sharing method can guarantee that another participant will not copy or record what they can see. Learn moreShow less

Access controls can prevent public discovery of chat media and limit access to members of the conversation. Deletion and unmatching controls may remove content from the active conversation according to the service’s current data-handling rules.

Disabling right-click or direct downloads is not complete protection. A recipient can still take a screenshot, photograph a screen or use other capture methods.

Only share media you can tolerate the recipient retaining. Never rely on interface restrictions as a guarantee against copying.
Browser notifications

How do notifications work?

While you are using Conflingo in a browser, the site can show unread chat activity through the message indicator and on-page notifications. Learn moreShow less

The web interface periodically checks for unread chat notifications when you are signed in. A message indicator can show the unread count, and an on-page notice can appear for a new message.

Delivery can depend on whether the page is open, the connection is active and the authentication token is valid.

Account & support

Password recovery, feedback, technical problems and direct support options.

Security

What should I do if I cannot access my account?

Start with password recovery. If the problem involves a changed email, suspicious activity or a technical error, contact support with specific details. Learn moreShow less

Use password recovery first and check spam or junk folders for the reset message. Do not share reset links or authentication codes with another person.

When contacting support, include the error message, approximate time, browser or device and the action you were trying to complete. Never include your password.

Product feedback

How can I suggest an improvement?

Use the feedback discussion for public ideas, the Conflingo profile for a direct message or the contact form for private and technical matters. Learn moreShow less

Public product ideas can be added to the feedback discussion. You can also send a message through the public Conflingo profile or use Contact Us for something private or technical.

The most useful feedback explains the goal, what happened, what you expected and why the change would improve the experience.

Technical help

What should I do if something does not work?

Retry once, record the exact error and contact Conflingo with the page, time, device and steps that caused the problem. Learn moreShow less

First refresh the page and confirm your connection is working. If the problem continues, avoid repeatedly submitting the same form or payment-related action.

Use Contact Us or message the public Conflingo profile.

Include these details

  • The page or feature where the problem occurred
  • The exact message shown on screen
  • The approximate date and time
  • Your browser, device and whether you were signed in
  • Steps that reliably reproduce the problem
