Proposal Agenda 27/09/21 - 01/10/21 Anonymous ## Mod 2021-09-28 (Tue) 03:01:04 No. 13278
Hello everyone. This is the thread to make this week's proposals. We have these proposals which failed previously, that perhaps we should discuss again this week (I won't put these on the docket, unless someone actually brings them up with amendments so they might pass this time):

PROPOSAL from a user >Moderator votes remain the counted votes in admin decisions, but users should let vote using strawpolls (or perhaps polling systems built into the site?) per topic to display general user attitude to a proposal. If majority User opinion directly opposes moderator majority vote then the proposals should be discussed and votes called on again after a break of 1-2 weeks to let people rethink positions on a topic. <obvious /pol/ trolling and spam should be taken into account in these user polls Problems >whats to stop pol from brigading? and how would you account for that in the polls? >How do we define a true leftypol user

>>13285 Some comments:
There is nothing really stopping anyone from making strawpolls.
>obvious /pol/ trolling and spam should be taken into account There is no way to take that into account, except to say everything that is easily manipulated should be regarded as manipulated.
Even putting aside foul play (and that is impossible, if done competently it is not possible to even identify), there is serious issues of selection. At different hours of the day, polls will have different results, depending where you put it, polls will have different results. Depending how questions are asked, results will differ (there is a reason people are paid for producing surveys).

>>13349 Note that youtube channels can be set up to allow multiple people to manage them, so this does not have to be reliant on one person. Maybe make the channel using a new google account tied to the site (if it's "official") and have a small team of trusted people to handle uploads and other things, to spread out the work a bit.

>>13285 I'm in support of mandating polling user interest (we would probably use another system like framapoll), at least for for things like wordfilters that affect the users and are non-essential. I'll formalize this proposal later tonight.
Caballo experimented with a polling thread back when the character limit proposal was made and I think it was a success.

Maybe we should start to think if we keep /lounge/, when was it launched already?
>>13349 I support this.

>>13349 I think that we should also keep the current userbase engaged, making things like weekly game tournaments, actual organized debates, movie nights followed by discussion and so on.
I've been thinking that a weekly leftypol podcast could be a good idea, just a couple of anons talking about what happened in the board and the world during the past week and inviting people to talk if they so desire, we could have debates there, and interviews and other things, and share it on spotify for others to see.
What do you think?

Someone do it already.

>>13285 Proposal from a mod Basically what they said.
>In cases where user polling indicates majority in opposition to the moderator vote outcome, the action will be limited to 2 weeks before it must be reconfirmed in the voting thread. Ideally opinions would be expressed in replies with actual discussion, rather than the 'yes/no' junk from users and mods, but I don't think we can do much about that.

>>13342 this is why you should have a union where all votes are identifiable to a user and there can be a vetting process.
If only somebody had thought of this

>>13463 Not with that attitude. If they have strong feelings, they can join. If they don’t, don’t join.

>>13428 I am heavy in favor of movie nights and would like to propose the utilization of the Syncplay software. This would however necessitate either distributing links to the files themselves via either BitTorrent or OCHs like catbox.moe. The latter would also allow users to stream the movie directly as that is a build in function of Syncplay.
I would also like to propose to kick the movie nights off with one of the translated Ogawa Pro documentaries.
