what happened to /gulag/?

>it was fun to see some of the deranged shit that gets posted and people's reaction to it.
Well now we have 1 reason to keep it as a public matter and 0 to keep it as an internal one!

/gulag/ was made private since in some threads it contained links to illegal material or posts by spammers that are best not indexed by any search engine. /gulag/ was not intended for "public inspection", or put another way, the purpose of /gulag/ was not for auditing purposes. It was originally visible since there wasn't any reason for it not to. It was originally intended for threads to be "soft deleted". Usually from /pol/ or other reactionaries. Later on we started using it to collect spam and other stuff like that, and then we realized it was not a good idea to host spam, so the devs decided to make it inaccessible to the public.

 

>>25355
There we go! Finally, a proper answer. Now if only you had just said that earlier instead of all the condescending bratty responses.

That was unnecessarily rude. I was trying to put on the mod capcode, so you knew I was speaking as a mod. I did this for your benefit. Do better next time.

In order to further the production of native OC or other under-utilised memes, it is proposed to ban the following types of meme templates from /siberia/ (this may be extended to the entire board if the experiment is successful):

- Soyjak (excluding poljak)
- Pepe
- Wojak
- Chadface
- Stacy (etc)

The ban would only apply to content posted after the rule comes into effect. The punishment would be a simple deletion or short ban for repeat/egregious offenders. The rationale for the change is that these memes are incredibly tired and many of them are outright reactionary, and they allow /pol/ to have rent free real estate in all of our heads. They are derivative and dull and they stifle the production of any new material or effort posting and the like. This change is only a proposal at this point so please make your thoughts known (PS: posting these memes in response to this post is expected and will only prove the point so have fun).

So did mods pass this stupid rule or not?

They seem to be enforcing a frog ban inconsistently. This post (me) had the image removed with the stated reason of "frogposting": https://leftypol.org/siberia/res/391347.html#q391704

Yet there are three other frogs in that thread uncensored (one of which I also posted). I don't know why, I see no significant difference in terms of originality (neither frog I posted was OP). I was surprised that they took the time to remove the frog but not the time to direct me to this thread or some other resource indicating the ban was real, not sure what those priorities indicate. I thought the whole concept of banning frogs was probably just somebody making up drama until the mods actually removed a frog (but only one for some reason that I still don't understand). I would've imagined that a change like this would be reflected in the rules page or at least a sticky thread in meta. I don't even care about frogs, but a rule change like this seems like it belongs on the rule page. I'm still confused about what contexts the frog is banned in, because as far as I know nobody has said. I'm not running the place though, I just post here sometimes.

Look, no offense but do you have autism? Don't try to understand what the mod team is doing. Most of it will not make sense.

Please devs, do this

Ooh yeah I like #DD3232

 

I like the second proposal, do you think the post border colour should also be darkened? Hex suggestion welcomed. Also, any thoughts on the post highlight colors (when you click a post number)?

I'm happy to just do it and add a small announcement-bar notification (where it says join the matrix chat) so that people are nudged to show approval/disapproval/feedback.

Can mods acknowledge this instead of banning me? I don't want to make a thread talking about this if you're going to ban and delete me immediately, so I want to know genuinely why whoever banned me thinks talking about the left-ride divide being obsolete is a /pol/ position. Before any unnecessary confusion arises, left-right divide being obsolete does not mean
>Communsts and anti-communists don't exist
>Imperialists and anti-imperialists don't exist
>Fascism doesn't exist
So if you genuinely still believe that this topic is "/pol/", at the very least explain why and justify your ban. That way I don't waste my time making a thread talking about whatever I wanted to talk about if you're just going to ban and delete in the end.(Ban lifted, thread dismissed)

 

>>25075
The left-right divide never existed in a real sense cause its a framing mechanism to contrast political reaction (right) against political progress (left). Trying to say its "obsolete" is meaningless because the things it measures is still in place, though you can certainly say that it is not a helpful way of framing politics within certain situations (like measuring liberalism in the presence of both reaction and communism).

The severity of your ban (I think) is more from the specific points you tried to push while trying to discredit the distinction and also evading a ban.

 

>>25076
Acknowledging it doesn't exist is essentially the same as saying it's obsolete. Both positions believe it's a useless dichotomy. I didn't ban evade, I posted in the Ukraine thread and got quickly banned hours after posting in /isg/. And what points exactly did I try to push? I simply gave an example of how it's obsolete, didn't push for anything myself.

 

>>25077
Oh, if thats the case then this is mostly miscommunication then. Sorry, there was another guy who got banned for the same thing pushing red-brown stuff.

 

not so stupid, as was.

Are you guys ever setting up a dedicated matrix server that doesn't depend on matrix.org? I could let you use my home server if you want. The main matrix server is kinda sus.

 

>If you already have an account hosted on Matrix.org, please deactivate your account and create a new account on another homeserver immediately. Matrix.org is the largest Matrix homeserver, and most Matrix apps suggest it by default. Many users new to Matrix end up using this server because they don't know that other servers exist. Unfortunately, Matrix.org is far from the best choice. Due to its absurdly strict rules, the server is known for frequent bans of rooms and user accounts, and it does so without prior notice. Basically, Matrix.org uses its size and special status to impose censorship.

>>25050
Reading the rest of this article and on second thought maybe this wasn't the best link to use to support my thread.

 

The good things about the official server is that it doesn't go down if we go down. Homeservers are kind of volatile.

One month and no vetos. Testing ᴉuᴉlossnW

 

Proposal to filter "troon" to "poltroon". Adding in a week or something if I see no objection.

 

>>23811 good

there is idpol from right-wingers
and there is idpol from liberals as well
"polidpol" would give the false appearance that only right-wingers commit idpol

>>23708
as a maupin enjoy-er i approve

>>23425
>Twitter.com should word filter to Nitter.net so users can be directed to the front end whenever a twitter link gets posted to reduce potential data collection.
If that could be selectively applied on links that would be great.
We wouldn't want to create false impressions about Nitter when people are complaining about twidder

We seem to be getting flooded with surveys. Any idea who's behind it?
So it's
>>>/siberia/357481 (highjacked)
>Igotstandardsbro
>realitycalc
>>>/siberia/357467
>>>/siberia/357067
>idrlabs

Are these connected, and what can we do to cost them money?

 

Personally, I think you might be over-reading it

its just buzzfeed quizzes for gay nerds
