This is a thread to discuss the moderation of this website. Jannies can move it to /meta/, if it belongs there.

what do we do to curb behaviour in pic related?

I didn't think it was relevant. The exact topic doesn't matter, the point is that jannies can't be in a thread as anons and then delete the posts they don't like. what rule does that post break? I was banned for "false pretenses", whatever that means.

I was the one who posted the news article about Trudeau invoking the Emergencies Act. The first post in the image is the post right under the news article.

the point isn't the ban, but the principle of the matter. if you're a janny, and you want to participate in a discussion as an anon, you shouldn't then use your mod powers to silence those you disagree with once the thread/conversation doesn't go your way. I was in the middle of a discussion with a janny, when all of a sudden he decided he doesn't want to talk about it any more and just deleted my last response and banned me.

 No.17086

>>17072
I banned you because I thought you were raiding from another site as I explained to you in the chat and you agreed. You were on an IP range commonly used for spam and were essentially echoing what miamifag, a ban evading spammer, was saying at the same time he was posting in that thread. With the post I banned you for specifically I thought you were calling people fascists for disagreeing with you. I cleared this up with you in the chat, heard all of your concerns, and apologized twice, and I had already unbanned you. You asked if it was me talking to you and I said no, and then you mentioned your post and then I told you yes I had replied to that one specifically to be exact. Then you came back in 10 minutes with a schizo infographic where you just highlight "(you)" that you spammed everwhere and claimed that is evidence that I banned you for disagreeing with you.

>either these protestors are petit-boug fascists who want to take down the government OR they're dumb Facebook boomer yokels who got roped into it by CIA […] both because saying your enemy is at the same time dangerous and incompetent is a fascist talking point.
How is there any conflict between those things? Petty bourg fascists and idiot yokels manipulated by the feds is perfectly compatible.

Also this is a strange way to be arguing about the topic considering the government can do worrying (to us) overreach against people who are our enemies. The truckers don't have to be defensible at all for Trudeau's policies to be concerning to us.

This whole thing looks like you can't have an argument without resorting to weird bait. And it's bait because you're defending a group of people who are obviously against us in the class struggle. Saying that people having multiple (according to you) incompatible characterizations of these people (as if it's a perfectly homogeneous group lol) is "a fascist talking point" is further bait. IDK what the false pretenses rule means in this context. Your ban reason should have been baitposting.

I'm more interested in why the fuck m00dy is obfuscating with multiple mod accs ('wow' being an alt). Is it because they've fucked up so much lately that they are attempting damage control?
Step down. Same with the permanent furfag who pushes porn and liberalism. We've never had worse mods. At least before there was a good chance of them being principled communists making the decisions.

Also I recently found out that matrix (New Vector Inc.) is a fucking for-profit venture capital offshoot of a literal glowie corp. Both of the main people behind it previously worked for Amdocs, which is an Israeli company with Big Tech / MIC / telecom surveillance ties. https://www.hackea.org/notas/matrix.html The mods/admins also keep blowing off concerns about leftypol being hosted in the US (which, in addition to being literally the black hole of world imperialism, has gag order laws, which would prevent us from knowing if the server gets seized, even if you were to trust this group of literal IDpol pushing radlib narcissist coomers).

This whole thing is the identical MO of leftychan trying to manufacture controversy post-split, right down to the style of the screenshots. Seems like false pretenses to me, but the ban was reversed was it not? Your insistence on making a spectacle out of it now speaks further to false pretenses.

But how about this: what is it you want exactly? Because right now all you're doing it continuing to keep this thread bumped talking shit. So you don't like the mods. Ok, and? What are you trying to accomplish exactly?

I'll write it again:

But what is this "EXPOSED" tabloid image for?
Did you post the image after the mod explained their reasoning, apologized, and unbanned you, or did you post it after that. I can see why your post would be deleted because as the other anon says, you just seem to want to stir some drama up, unsuccessfully so far.

I made the image when I realised that the person I was disagreeing in the thread was a janny. I actually accepted the apology and everything was fine. But then moody was like "oh no wait that was me in the thread". Yes, talking to people in a thread and then banning them and deleting the posts when the conversation doesn't go your way is wrong to do.

Not if the conversation not going your way entails breaking rules. My way would include a worthwhile discussion that doesn't break the rules and derail.
>Think about it this way, would it be cool if I banned you right now if I had the ability?
I wouldn't be cool with you personally having any sort of mod powers. I'd want to know what rules I broke if somebody banned me and if it turns out the ban was an error I'd be satisfied if it got overturned on appeal.
>I say you're arguing under false pretenses because you have a different opinion.
The false pretenses thing seems pretty plausible given the whole "fascist talking point" thing and defending the honor of some reactionary idiots. But again the ban was overturned so what are you complaining about?

The thread was about the Canadian truckers. I posted a news article that said Trudeau is invoking the Emergencies Act, then we talked about truckers in the trucker thread. How do you derail something by staying on topic?

I wasn't banned for an one-off post or stupid OP in /siberia/. I was banned and my post deleted in the middle of a conversation with the janny. I actually wrote out a response to three different anons (one of whom was the janny), but then when I tried posting it I saw I was banned.

>Also the fact you mention we are hosted in America raises some alarm bells as to a certain party that had tried mass flagging our host.
Uygha geo/host is public information, literally anyone that gets triggered by the communist content of leftypol, especially in the anglophone part of the world you're hosted from, could be responsible for these flags. All you need is the ability to write "site geolocation" into a search engine and copy-paste the url into it to know you're hosting from the US. It was not me who flagged as I am hoping that principled communists have the time to take over before this site goes down.

Oh your behavior have caused me to start hatching plans alright. I think even starting over with a single /leftypol/ board could do it for most anons. As long as the foundation makes sense and the moderation is limited and consistent to communist principles.

why is this anchored? I (op) am not the anon talking about geolocation and I want this thread to be about how mods behave on the board, they should have some sort of distance and try to be objective, especially when they participate in a thread. That's when they should be hesitant to use their "powers" rather than use it as a knee-jerk reaction to something they don't like.

Also, mods should be using their tag when posting in /meta/, and they should keep each other to that. Because now we don't know if a response is an anon or a janny. Sometimes they do say, but not always.
