The current setup with the TOR node in-site creates an absurd fucking system that punishes rule-abiding posters twice over while offering literally zero reason for the most atrociously malignant posters to follow the rules.
People flagrantly break the rules and then ban-evade without even trying to hide what they're doing, going so far as to continue posting with the exact same static name, and their original IP ban doesn't even get a single minute of increased ban length from all I've seen so far.
So everyone else not only has to follow the rules, but they also get to watch as the people who break them on a repeat basis simply mock them for reporting them. The number of people who use it in good faith could be counted on one hand.
Not reporting is bourgeois is put on the very top of the screen on every fucking thread but
WHAT THE FUCK IS THE POINT OF REPORTING PEOPLE IF THEY CAN JUST CASUALLY EVADE ANY PUNISHMENT WHATSOEVER? Supposedly there's supposed to be a feature that helps prevent abuse of TOR in the future, but as it is it's a BROKEN FUCKING FEATURE that has only annoyed everyone who doesn't use it. FINISH your fucking project before you IMPLEMENT IT!

>>2314558>>2314568hey they ended up helping OP
it was even funny until they started spamming CP
>>2314902You do t have to like it but we have rules.
If you want a site without then go make it.
>>2314985>>2314986There will always be a way to ban evade, from changing your dynamic IP to getting free and paid VPNs to Tor to mobile data to public Wi-Fis which are everywhere nowadays etc. A moderation team, without an account-based system, can only set up friction in the ban evading process. Every imageboard suffers from this to some degree.
The most efficient way of dealing with bad posters is just deleting all of their posts, preferably before anyone else gives them attention. This works well with the slow pace of Leftypol, where users check it every few minutes/hours instead of every second like in 4chan.
>>2315005It's something that needs to be done carefully because posts are disembodied from identities here, most of the time at least. There are a few posters who are infamously shit and never contribute with anything, but the occasional ban from a regular user is like, two or three offending messages from a long post history of normal posts. Thankfully it's easy enough to select the bad apples from post history. I was more talking about dedicated trolls, who have all of their trollposts in a single IP. If you feel like you had your other posts deleted in a cross-fire, please report that on /meta/.
>>2315010>did it to protect against bansThat does not work LOL
>>2314985>It's a nice way to get all the people too stupid to use VPNs in one place.This is true but what is the point of that if you never use it to your advantage!
>one or two anons who actually need TorNo one needs it.
>>2314990>I use free ones and all they can do is track my activity They sell everything you do, including what you type.
>this website no one gives two fucks about.Yeah, surely the fascists looking for internal enemies will look the other way.
>>2315108>No one needs it.fyi as soon as the USA government decides leftypol is an extremest organization you can be arrested and jailed for up to 15 years for coordinating with and "abetting terrorists."

Western leftists are spoiled and seem to think they will never be disappeared despite what's happening with ICE. ICE is just the warm-up.
>>2315686It doesn't matter if you post or do anything currently illegal. Read into Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project. Even being associated with what the government considers "terrorists" will be enough. and they can expand the definition to anything they want as Trump has been doing. They are already trying to blame PSL for the riots and frame them as behind it. Eventually they will drive leftists underground. We should have a full understanding of encryption tech and be ready to use it.
>They'll probably go for the twitter users and streamers first.Sure at first. However leftypol is explicitly a leftist site and a boogeyman for /pol/tards. Even if it's nothing like they think eventually glowies will be looking in this direction.
>>2315726It's already happening.
Seriously western leftists are to stupid to live.
>>2316016And where is your glow moniker?
There is easy ways to hide yo ass
I do not say banning tor is optimal even but probably the best this gaggle of incompetents can do
for the moment
>>2315779>western leftists are too stupid to liveClearly. But are they a challenge to anything? Also clearly not.
So relax, enjoy your social outings and/or shitposting.
That reminds me I ran into a climate action by total coincidence once. These guys were blocking the road and all got taken into custody. Actually they just snapped pics of them and took down ID. Anyway, they are in the database, while most of you I can tell are not at all.
Point is, they don't care what's in your head, if anything they care about disruptive potential, that's all.
Paranoia is ok to some extent but keep it contained, productive.
>>2314155I hope this doesn't need to be explained to people here as most of us are or have been on the run from polyp infestation on some level. I haven't been on 4chan since 2016.
Garbage has a knock-on effect. People won't post good in a sea of trash.
I am only still here cause there is as far as I know nothing really better.
I would go on reddit, I don't care. I am not part of the "principled anti-reddit aktion". But there is nothing.
>>2318470<he believes in freedom of speechsorry anon, this is an 18+ website.
Go back to /pol/ or discord or wherever you came from.
>>2318477Not sure where you got that from. I don't, it evidently does not exist.
In fact, the total opposite. I made decisions some might call illegal. I'm saying put a limit on how nervous you are about that.
Also you can hide your ass easier and better anyway. Have you tried posting over the node lately? It's shit.
That specific formulation.
Well, there was a song supposed to go with it.
I'm not gonna post the same post yet again.
