Oldfag here, it's been a while since I've used leftypol but it genuinely seems like the site has improved. Whatever happened to bunkerchan anyway? Maybe my memory of the 8gag days are fuzzy but the current leftypol seems like less of a neckbeard echochamber. Don't get me wrong, it's still an anonymous imageboard and with that comes a certain amount of toxicity, but now idpol threads seem rarer or at least there is definitely a certain amount of pushback when people use being "anti-idpol" as cover for being reactionary. I'm also glad users seem to have outgrown Muke and co.

Btw, I still remember that one time leftypol had a massive hardon for Jeremy Corbyn, there were so many memes and they're all saved on my phone.

You guys do realize dengoids are a problem on reddit and Twitter too right? In fact, I'd say dengoids are an even bigger problem on Twitter.

>The last coup was over a few different things at once, one of the mods (Zul) invited the tripfag sage and another non-mod into the staff chat (which included user IPs and dev details) without warning to be overseers or something,

it was to prove a point in some retarded argument, the mods really liked getting into weird petty arguments over running the site. also nobody could see the dev details or the IP addresses since matrix doesn't show you older messages, all i and sage saw were people soying out over each other and certain .org mods calling for eachother's purging, zer0 should've just given the main people involved in whatever the fuck the fight was about a timeout to cool their heads.

Zul and co were resistant to any attempts to improve board quality (for example the Haz ban), they persistently were claiming we had to allow shitty behaviour on the site because of 'muh Chan culture', and generally they were constantly causing drama, unnecessary 100+ message arguments, and huge stress. Zul also unbanned idpol trolls and other siteshitters without consultation with the rest of the mods even though that was made explicitly against the mod rules. Overall, their faction was usually in the minority yet couldn't deal with that fact so tried to browbeat everyone else into going along with them by causing drama and tantrums and refusing to adhere to the majority decisions. Worst of all, Zul and friends were running a seperate group chat (also made explicitly against mod rules) with the intent to get the mods they didn't like purged. Which in the end is what led to him being votekicked (he was the ringleader of all this). This is something we mods had the right to do according to the constitution which we all agreed to and Zer0 had no right to interfere (by the rules which we all agreed). That is why the coup happened when Zer0 (one of the Zul crew) removed all the mods outside of their clique and stole the site.

Moderation has been 100x easier and less stressful since Zul, Coma, and friends self-purged.

This is the fundamental problem I've been having, how did these fags get into leftism? Cause they've demonstrated they're both assholes and quite dumb. Usually you can be one of those things but not both to be any flavor of socialist. Best guess is they are "unorthodox".

If it's that easy for randos to infiltrate the modteam, then how about glowies?
Can the modfolks be sufficiently competent to defeat and gulag attempts of glowies at infiltration and takeover?

Well, you decide for yourself. There hasn't been a infiltration so much as a chain of unfortunate events that escalated into retardation.

Honestly effective moderation with how targeted this site is by people with nothing to do all day and spammers would be impossible without being able to see IPs or significantly raising the requirements for posting. We always recommend everyone use the tor node or a vpn. Glowies could probably piece together your posting even if we hashed IPs.

Yup and it is unreasonable to expect literal who hedoesitforfrees to clean shit every day and listen to criticism and try and take into account everyone's varying opinions about how moderation and site admin should work while also having to appease and clean up after dramafagging man toddlers that don't know how to follow rules or play nice with other people (let alone fulfill wny of their actual duties) while all around doing their best to make a toxic moderation environment that saps everyone's energy and willingness to volunteer under the pretense of being "anti-janny" (but more like drama-seeking antisocial behaviour). You can't make retarded impulsive fags with no team skills and several personality disorders moderators of any site and expect good results. It's frankly mind boggling to me that they managed to get selected to mod or last as long as they did, but this comes down to the immature former site admin pandering to them for the feeling of being in a highschool clique. I get the sense some of the users that initially played along with the shenanigans weren't necessarily the incel spammers and "nazbols" that were constantly getting banned, but rather saw the actions of this clique as giving the jannies some commupance for their obnoxious actions. Keep in mind however that these people are the same people getting in constant fights with the userbase and making dumb impulsive decisions that piss people off, like all the stupid bannings in the congress room and trying to interfere with banning literal spammers, while actually avoiding any of the tedious daily janny activities of cleaning poo and banning ban evaders etc, that the rest of us carried. It should come as no surpise then that the second they got their way they put the site through an asinine larp of their manic inner delusions, covering the site in stickies and banning dozens of random people they suspected of being former mods or gave them any criticism. When their plan immediately fell apart, instead of taking it as a learning experience and an opportunity for personal growth, they instead organized a dedicated thread and chat rooms to try and spam this site with all manner of gore and shock images as well as other things. Having achieved nothing they still spend every day coping and malding and seething at our every success. It's pitiful. I would just ask them, why bother? Just go do your own thing and get a life lmao.

This is false. I am more anti NATO than any dengist. Most of them are pro Fujimori, Mujihadeen and Marcos via duterte.

>>21914
i would like it noted that I was asking both sets of mods to do something entirely different to this, ( a union with me and another anon co-opted onto the mod team to oversee its fair treatment) and was randomly added to the mod chat without prior warning or consent, (although I can't say I didn't appreciate it) then left on request after just a lil trolling around for fun, ( a light bit of fun I may add, considering the years of shit the mods have done to myself and others)

>>21936
its nice of you to acknowledge this. The .org gas lighting is off the charts insane. I can't decide if its very calculated or they are actually really really ill people and don't realise it.

I laid out an entire plan to democratise the board. You mods deleted it, then blamed me for you guys having deleted it. Again, don’t bother to deny it, the screen shots have been posted over and over.

Sage m8 I'm not even liked by some of the vols and I got what I wanted this weekend by asking in advance politely

Moderating may be white collar work but it's real work, a major risk factor for moderators is PTSD and the janguard do it for free

You don't have to agree with them just listen to what they say, They're human beings volunteering their time for some hard work

He'll apply to be a vol if you want to fix policy so much they're organized in Democratic centralism so you get in do your job and get to give some input as a comrade at the coal face

>neckbeard
OP you are the redditor, you are the twittertard, and now your kind has hijacked leftypol congratulations.

It's like that meme about California. It's shit because of the people living in it, because it's shit they flee someplace else, doing it all over again.

In our case it's actually the case that fags like you have hijacked every cool place and subculture on the internet left because your own places, cultural products and memes leave much to be desired.

>b-b-but I was the oldfag!

And where pray tell were you during your absence? I think it's very clear from your derision of "neckbeards". That you did not acquire from leftypol, to be sure.

What can I say: congratulations! My alienation process is complete thanks to fags like you. The cool internet is on its way out, the only remnants being the friends I've made over the years. I pity the zoomers, I really do. They will never experience the joys of a bunch of humorous, ingenious and strange autists getting together and propelling shitposts to the heavens.
