Oh yeah, because jannies have zero integrity and are not even leftists, but hyperonline greyzone readers who became anti-NATO cargocultists where the absolute height of any political action is to be anti-US online and jack off to any enemies of US, no matter how reactionary they are.
No.22629
>>22628Agreed, it's honestly gotten to the point of complete absurdity and it was insufferable "tankie" bias shit like this that killed infinityleftypol when everyone got banned for not gobbling down Russian and Syrian propaganda against the PYD/YPG.
It's just the reality on leftypol at this moment, that Russian Nationalist Chauvinist retards can literally spout the most obscene Nationalist, rightoid, neocon shit without any repurcussions or evidence, and then even questioning them results in a "glow" ban. I mean for fuck sake come on, people in the Ukraine General thread are still arguing that the recent Ukrainian offensive didn't happen and it's just "natocel propaganda" and even questioning that bullshit gets them all screaming "glow glow" like that's an argument and you get banned. Z gang peddle outright rightoid conspiracy theories and don't get banned, yet again, questioning RIGHTOID conspiracy if it comes from a Vatnik's mouth is ban worthy?
The biggest irony here is, people literally posting, propaganda from outright Russian Glowies (confirmed FSB telegrams) is not "glowing", yet questioning that nonsense from a neutral position will 99% get you banned for Glowing.
Can the mods explain what rule is being breached by questioning Zgang bullshit? how is "glowing" determined? Is it a rule now you have to be a thin skinned Russian revanchist chuckefuck?

Anyway, its nice to see another anon be in the same boat as me mentally half a year ago and asking questions about what sort of rule mandate outside of "I just don't like it >:(" you use for banning anti-Russian (or more accurately, not pro-Russian, because we are at the euther you are with me or against me stage) sourcess.

No.22633
Here to appeal my absurd ban on the site for "idpoling" even though by that logic you should be banning every person in the thread this ban occurred in, since the topic itself is by default about idpol. Bans are not your personal argument stopper, Mods.
>>>/games/22463 is the post I received said ban for. Also the mod that did this didn't know that you don't include /meta/ in the crossboard bans, since you're fucking up the ability to appeal, since your ban appeal box has a tiny character limit.
No.22634
>>22631I'm just agreeing with you, the situation is absurd.
Most of the Z-retards are literally able to post actual propaganda from confirmed, admitted Russian glowies, and aren't banned for "glowing" despite posting little spook propaganda. While if you post anything that is based on the reality of the ground or the situation, even from an anti-Ukraine, but not Russian cocksucking Nationalist head in the sand position, you get banned for glowing.
Radio War Nerd in nobody's mind aside from the most deranged Z-cocksuckers is a "Natocel" or "pro-Ukraine", in fact, he is very much in Russia-camp being part of the eXile group yet they now call even RWN a "Natocel glowie" because he isn't spouting the most deranged Z-Gang propaganda and is talking about the war in a materialist, neutral, holistic analysis and the grim situation on the ground for the Russians rather than literal actual FSB glowing telegram talking points.
Perun "Natocel glowie" despite the guy having the most indepth, neutral analysis on Youtube and actually leans more towards a "ukraine is pretty much fucked and should negoitate" position.
It was obvious months ago the mods clearly picked a side when they said here "Go create your own Ukraine war thread then" and we did, we had decent neutral discussion in there despite all the Zgang spamming of it then we all got banned for "glowing" and the thread deleted.
Mayswell just change the background of leftypol to the Russian imperial eagle and play the Russian anthem as a MP3 in the background of that board at this point because Zgang retards are absolutely NOT socialists or Communists or care about the working class and actual communists and socialists are getting banned left and right for criticising or even just having a realistic outlook on Ukraine that isn't "Actually kiev has already fallen and Ukraine is completely conquered, Westoid glowie media just refuses to acknowledge it" or whatever nonsense Zgang spouts.

>>22636>People criticize Russia all the timeThey absolutely do not, the Z retards go fucking apeshit and spam glowie the moment anyone states on the ground reality of the Ukraine war. I was being told day after day after day that the Ukrainian counter offensive was crushed day one when it was obvious the Ukrainians had broken through, Z retards were then goalpost moving to "It's was done on purpose to draw the Ukrainians in to cause a cauldron and the massive Russian forces will crush the Ukrainians trapped in there" then when it all collapsed, Z retards for days argued it was all fake news or aksually losing thousands of square kilometers was done on purpose. 1GTA, Russia's elite breakthrough force made of Moscow's finest soldiers literally abandoned their vehicles, tanks, weapons and let DPR conscripts and forces get crushed and caputured for 4D chess reasons. Totally fucking believable and not just retarded cope. Oh tell me how K:D ratio matters now suddenly (Though doesn't matter in Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Syria) even though it's not even based on any evidence.

This war should have been over in 2 weeks, instead, Russia can't even fucking assert air dominance over ITS OWN BORDER and is getting steamrolled by Ukraine.
>As has been pointed out to you across dozens of threads at this point, they actually do care, a hell of a lot more than your dumb ass.Yeah man, circlejerking over Russian rightoid revanchism and celebrating civilians being massacred because of their nationality is totally what Socialists do.

Please Ukraine general is fucking cope central and you retards literally spout every piece of FSB glowie propaganda without any second thought or realistic evidence.
>Every idiot thinks themselves a wisemanNot a wiseman, just smarter than a bunch of chuckefuck revanchist reactionaries who simply cockgobble Russian imperialist propaganda because they're a bunch of edgy ass self hating emos who love Russia for the exact same reason /pol/ does.
>FTFY I've posted numerous times extremely indepth posts about how NATO lured Russia into this war and the extreme bad faith NATO has engaged with, in terms of Russia and European security architecture. Still not enough for you retards who think Russia is 100% winning this war and everything is going 100% according to plan. (which is why Putin now is dodging suicide attempts and the entire Russian media is in chaos with notable figures speaking out of line from Kremlin propaganda)
>LMFAOYou know what's really LMFAO. Ukraine was about to rout Russia and 1GTA using light mechanised infantry right up to the Russian border, and Russia didn't even use it's airforce to cover it's own troops and DPR/LPR retreat because the planes were getting BTFO'ed within minutes of taking off, at the Russian fucking border.

>The only countries opposing Russia's actions are their direct enemies in NATO, so your nonsense is blatantly false >Imagine being this ignorant of geopolitics and the meaning of such actions in the diplomatic and international stage. Both of these completely contradict eachother retard and cover by exactly what I said. Countries aren't supporting Russia in Ukraine, even China is outright "what the fuck are you doing?" and China is sending very clear signals it's extremely unhappy with Ukraine. What countries are doing is looting Russia of it's resources at a rate far below market value. Do you actually believe all these countries give a shit about Russia? What the fuck? It's called self-interest and playing both sides for gimmies.
>Projection because you got caught Oh yeah man, totally caught for being a glowie, because I don't cocksuck every piece of literal FSB agent cope and I'm realistic about the situation on the ground in Ukraine. Meanwhile YOU FAGS LITERALLY POST INFORMATION 1:1 FROM CONFIRMED, ADMITTED, FSB AGENTS.

Also you're ignoring my point, regardless of your opinion of the subject, being banned for this shit is hypocritical, I am not the only one to post an opinion regarding this subject, and if you're going to enforce a strict anti-idpol rule, than liberal idpol counts too.

Especially considering that I cited earlier trans people (in a screencap post) and cited the existence and lack of drama over Poison, a trans character that nobody has a problem with.
Retroactively confirming the idea that "you can groom a child into being another gender" and then changing the story so that "the character made this decision", is unironically similar to Dr.Money's experiments on the Reiner brothers, is gay erasure and also promotes the smear of trans grooming, not to mention the fact that this is defending corporate liberalism and deliberately misinterpreting Japanese cultural gender terms.
A three day ban is far in excess of the rule broken, especially compared to the 3 hour ban you gave that ban-evading NATO-shill; banning on Tor is just fucking it up for everyone else. I have no intention on continuing to post in that GuiltyG thread, the discussion already finished nearly a day before I got this arbitrary ban.

Industrial production Vs Bullshit jobs -> policy
Under industrial production there was tendency for workers to organize and take control of the factories, build city Soviets, then build the higher Soviet and produce by plan.
As you see, this tendency is bleak. I live in ex-USSR, I see remains of industrial production, huge factories that no longer operate.
The number of workers is declining and at the moment, depending on place, commodity production is done by 10-30% of workers, food, machinery, etc. 90-70% employed in services.
Not just the number of workers is declining, but it is no longer industrial production. I do not have numbers, but what I see is small companies with 10-100 workers.
Sometimes good percent of workers at a factory is formed from self-employed immigrants. In Poland, the immigrants, usually from Ukraine, is given a right to work for only 6 months, as I recall. So not just labor laws do not apply fully to them, since they work as self-employed, but they can't change this 6 months law by organizing at workplace.
The 70%-90% employed in services, although sometimes they can benefit from organizing, as nurses for example, but in many cases they will not benefit. How this affects they thinking, looking at everything as tiny individuals.
Note that it is irrelevant how many workers is there if they can organize. Since if they organize, they still can control the food supply and etc, so they can use this as power. But with declining number of workers, they less likely to organize on their own, so helping them is important.
All this and sure there is more, contribute to the decline in tendency.
So what do? Organize politically, but not for communism.
There was a referendum on UBI. UBI is a policy, it was not a party. UBI could change the workers to something new. But the policy was not accepted, I do not know why. But I've said it is not clear what is in heads of those who can't organize at work, may be this can be an example how their tiny individualistic mind can't grasp something like this.
The policy for less working time no wage cut, will not go. This is what workers should demand at their work places.
But policy: abandon right to decline a job at necessary production, sure for those who have qualification.. might be accepted.
What is necessary production? It is production or services necessary for modern biological living. A house of 3x3 meter is too small, 33 m^2, with heating, noise isolation, etc, good.
What is this policy? If you want to work at food production, in a hospital, etc necessary, you study and they can't decline you a job. It may reduce unemployment, allows more free time, allows old and disabled to work since some of them can't work 8 hours/day, but 2 hours/day or fewer days a week is ok, etc.
What will be the wage? Enough for modern biological living.
What will be the working time? 8-2 hours a day. Depends on how many people would like to work in a, f.e., hospital, more workers, less working hours, no wage cut. It may depend on work type, if work can be done in 2 hours/day shifts.
Will enough be produced? With number of people who want to work at these companies, the work time will be reducing individually, but working hours is not declining in sum. So the same number or more products is produced.
Can I work somewhere else and at the necessary production? Sure, this will be perfect.
How will company pay wages, sum(product prices) < sum(wages)? Companies that produce the same type of necessary product should form a monopoly and set prices so that they have enough money to pay the wages.
But supply and demand.. it is necessary production so demand will not be reduced.
But inflation.. production planning will help.
What do you think? If this looks like it can be implemented, may be work more on the policy, print it and distribute at meetings, etc. There is unlimited protest in my city.

Where there is disagreement among moderators, the matter will be decided by informal consensus of currently active moderators. If there is still disagreement, the matter should be escalated to a formal vote.>>22730This is highly subjective obviously.

It's stupid, misguided, difficult to read, a waste of time, dangerously revisionist, and your method is totally backwards (to imagine potential half-solutions - there are an infinite number btw, and ideas are cheap! - and try to implement it with 0 power, 0 analysis, 0 ambition), but it has heart and at least i see now it's not reactionary and not just ravings.
Repost it if you want. Though fr, get a substack or smth if u want to publish ur ideas, or just a text document, cause that's long as hell and you seem like you just need to get your ideas out in writing (to ponder on, amend, etc.). Those types of OPs don't tend to get much attention btw, and even less when it's "here's a political solution i thought up in my head - comments?"; cause no one cares, ideas are cheap. Analysis is hard. Learning is hard. If you have to ask, then the answer is probably that it's a bad idea.

I'm not even complaining that 'bait' is completely arbitrary, I'm complaining that removing anything inflammatory or controversial is literally destroying the purpose of this website.

>>22767I 100% disagree that this site should be given up to whatever bullshit ppl want to post since that just draws everything down to the lowest common denominator of edgy retards and ruins it for those who are not obnoxious and cynical. But I pretty much agree actually. Leftypol's format isn't very conducive to anything positive. Any good points about the site are basically accidental, and there's a constant push and pull between the people who want something less serious, and people who want to get something out of this site.
The nihilists piss me off but are basically right. My take is that leftypol only made sense in the context of opposing a /pol/. Outside of 8ch the idea of a 'leftist' imageboard (that tries to be large, accommodating, allow usual "chan culture" etc) doesnt make much sense. No leftist goals can be met with this format how it is now, and it fails to just be a place to chat and b comfy with other leftists, since the same people who claim to want that just so happen to think that arguing autistically about everything, taking sides on geopolitics like larping geeks, fantasizing about torture, complaining about women, and bitching at anyone who tells them to be better is comfy.

Seriously, someone says 'i don't care about this issue' and you think it's justified for someone to give them a ban because you think they should care? Should we be banning every post that fails to address how capitalism developed or that isn't a perfect proletarian revolutionary opinion? Bad opinions shouldn't be banned, nor chilled by staff powers.
I'm not saying you shouldn't be a moderator on leftist forums, but I have no reason why you are a moderator of a /leftypol/ board. You clearly want to steer it in a direction it wasn't meant to go, it seems masochistic to stay here rather than go to a more constructive social forum.

>>22926The OP was only the post which I banned from so it got the ban message applied, but the user was acting in bad faith in the replies (obnoxiously claiming to not be the person replied to, while being that person) and in general causing a disturbance. Shitposting and arguing is OK obviously, but when u make OPs just to shitfling in bad faith in the replies that gets more attention from mods, and if that's all it seems like you're doing based on IP history then a ban is warranted imo (and according to the rules, low quality posting) if only to cool that individual off and stop them shitting up the board temporarily. It was a combination of factors. The OP is ok and that's why it wasn't deleted, tampered with, or moved. It was the individual.
The only contentious thing i can see is the 3d instead of 1d ban, but that's because it was a pattern with them.

If you actually checked IPs you would see that the eco-socialist does not have the same IP as OP. It's impossible.
>shitflingingI do not recall "shitting up" any threads on that IP. Like I'm thinking and I'm drawing a total blank. I was mostly from memory passively participating in the /ukraine/ threads. Don't remember shitposting or arguing or anything. Just doomposting and asking questions.

Something like

Rambling incoming, not necessarily related to the site I just want to get it off my chest.
I got banned for "nazi apologia" and both-sideism". I wrote that war rape is real (true), that all sides did it (true), and the part I apparently fucked up is writing "except PERHAPS the Germans" (they did it too, as part of the Holocaust even, I just never heard of it until anons posted links). I'm like, OK I'm not happy but whatever, I'll sit out the ban.
But it occurred to me that you could make up the wildest shit about Nazi Germany and "some" would find it taboo to debunk it. That in "some" minds Nazis are cartoon villains. I'm autistically innocent to a fault apparently, as I operate under the assumption when it comes to history that feelings don't get in the way of the good science.
It's not about the Nazis however, screw them they're in the dustbin of history. Hitler had no testicles. Prove me wrong.
It's about the problematic thought process. Mainstream examples today are the 1619 Project and the rightoid conspiracies about certain billionaires like George Soros. "Some" find it taboo to debunk the rightoid conspiracies because it makes the billionaires "look good' or whatever. "Some" find it taboo to debunk the 1619 Project because slavery is a sensitive subject.
Is there an answer to this conundrum? Because the way I see it, if we cannot agree to stick to the facts no matter how politically "inconvenient" and fall for cheap populism (Critique of the Gotha Programme is relevant here), we implicitly reject the legacy of Marx & Engels thought and by extension the path to communism.

Remove my ban on /siberia/ - it is hypocritical and too damn long for a warning when you give Nazi posters 1 hour bans for blatant "muh sub-humans" rhetoric
Rape: unlawful sexual activity and usually sexual intercourse carried out forcibly or under threat of injury against a person's will
Nothing in that siberia thread OP describes this, I only talked about the OP subject and the only thing I denied is the unlikeliness of female rape considering the physical and social power men have over women, things other anons mostly agree on. Excluding blatant drugs, maiming violence, pedoshit and other non-consent from being involved - most "female rape" is typically men being ashamed for letting their dick think for them, and projecting that shame onto their sexual partners.
The supposed rape anon in that thread has only claimed to be a victim, but has provided no explanation, nor how it correlates to the OP situation - a coach (not even a teacher) having a consensual relationship with an of-age teen that then snitched her out to the police. The Anon then proceeded to gaslight about fat older men, displaying blatant misandry and poor-faith argument, called everyone they didn't like pedos, continuing with a shit-post tier rant about fat chick raping through vanilla sex - a laughable idea considering that to get the point of sex you'd have to consent into actually stripping and getting into bed, because there is no goddamn way some fat chick
A) is going to catch you if you run
B) People are going to stand idly by as she kidnaps you screaming and kicking, no matter her strength.
All this is just bad-faith argumentation, hysteria and concern trolling.
Also being an asshole is not a bannable offense on this site, and although I didn't engage in that at all, rape apologia is not actually a bannable offense on /siberia/ either. Moreover I have seen multiple posts about rape fantasies involving monarchs, white chicks, nazis and gays on /siberia/ and nobody banned those posters for that. Double standards much?
Finally I've been an avid anti-pedo and anti-rape activist for a long time, just because I'm not jumping to break out the torches and #Cancel a woman over her personal affairs that aren't even actual rape, isn't pro-rape.(Rape apologia is right wing retardation and that IS bannable)

>>23467 OK and that's still not a reason to ban someone, especially for a week, when an actual bait poster on the main board only got a day long ban by the same mod. I got 0 warning, especially since my post was barely offensive at all. I only stated my opinion, that idpol is idpol. And posted a silly meme. That did not break ANY site rules and therefore should not be banned. Users should and can defend themselves in an argument.

As for your question, no I do think blatant racism ought to be banned, my point is that people shouldn't use race, gender or anything else as a shield from criticism, of a method of influencing moderator decisions.

And no, context for imageboard posts doesn't matter. There are people who make shitposts on /siberia/ and then effortpost on /leftypol/. The anonymous imageboard format was created as an alternative to forums where your username, your "reputation" mattered and those who racked up posts had more "social capital" on the forum.
Imageboards do away with reputation, karma, post counts and your contribution, ideas, arguments are judged on their merits alone. I'm not surprised you don't understand this.
Now you're adding accounts, logins for TOR. Why does this website still use imageboard software, a classic forum like phpbb has all the stuff you want: post history, accounts, TOR filtering, etc. It doesn't make sense to take imageboard software and turn it into forum software by adding everything that forums have that makes them different.

you don't know what context means hahahaha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I'm genuinely embarrassed for you.
If a person posts in a /leftypol/ thread, their posts from /games/, /tech/, other /leftypol/ threads do not add context to their latest post because they are
unrelated. The only "context" they provide is about the person making the post, which as I said before is irrelevant if you judge posts and arguments on their own merits. Dismissing an argument based on the person making it is a logical fallacy anyway.

>>23485What is your problem? Context is everything that informs a mod about a user. When I see a post that is ban worthy, I check the history and read whether the poster has been doing nothing but flaming and trolling, or if it's a one off. Quality degrades very quickly when the lowest common denominator is allowed to post whateve they want as long as they don't cross the line on any individual post, but instead shit, fart, and cum all over the place in many small posts. Giving bad posts the benefit of the doubt very frequently gives bad results, and benefits crypto-reactionaries. Those edgy comments that are borderline bigoted or imperialist frequently turn out to be someone who is actually bigoted or some form of right winger.
You're angry that your post history aggravated your ban, but it could've just as well absolved you. More information means the mod team can make more informed decisions. This information isn't part of discussions per se, each post is judged individually by other posters. This is about bans. A ban is judged with as much context as possible.

Nevermind that this still ignores the fact that /meta/ is supposed to be exempt, never mind that by that metric nazi posters should be getting much, much longer bans instead of shorter bans and never mind that this is literally what reddit mods do to users, by banning by adding up unrelated small things and creating an arbitrary "rules broken" claim to ban on.
> edgy comments are totally /pol/This is LEFTYPOL you fucktard the entire point is that people don't need to pussyfoot around. Moreover that's not a breaking of the rules, as the rules YOU WROTE clearly state that only blatantly bad faith shit ought to be banned on the main boards AND that this is far less enforced on /siberia/. Your entire decision is based off of 2 posts I made out of hundreds, and ones that can barely be construed as offensive, and cannot in good faith be called right-wing.

My opinions on idpol consist of 2 harmless shitposts saying idpol is idpol regardless of side, and a detailed review of Bridget and the corporate liberalism and toxicity of the character change. This is all at worst a controversial opinion and if you're going to use all my poster history as a reference then you ought to consider the small amount of posts I've made regarding idpol.

And much like in Germany, the outraged working class rose up in rebellion against the corrupt and decadent government that sought pleasure over national prosperity. The grievances of the Bolsheviks had little to do at all with the Romanovs themselves, and when rogue agents had them killed against Lenin’s orders it cost the Bolsheviks a large amount of international support, due to giving the impression that the newly formed Soviet Union sought to abolish all stability in society in favor of mass hives of faceless slaves with no culture to call their own, which couldn’t be further from the truth

Why was Pelosi unguarded that night? The liberal media narrative doesn't address these. Answering them might push liberals to come up with a story early on, that they change later.

>>23686yes, it's just you
1. you should assume anything you post on the open internet is public (don't dox yourself!)
2. you should assume server owners can see all IPs, all packets, etc. Even if the server didn't have this functionality, it could be trivially created by anyone with access to the server.
2.5 I'll agree that 2 doesnt imply that all moderators should be assumed to have access to all IPs. A hash situation instead of showing the IPs would be preferable, tho rangebans would still require mods to know IP.
Use a VPN if you're worried, or never post personally identifying information (or anything the government would be obliged to follow up on like terrorist threats). Individuals don't have access to ISP knowledge of who owns what IP. If you're worried about a government employee infiltrating the staff, searching all IPs (which itself would be difficult, since there's no 'list' available of what IPs have posted, without server access at least) and scraping the posts, in order to subpoena all of our ISPs (assuming it's the US gov, and u live in a 14 eyes country and also not the EU) just to put us on their shitlist - i think you should re-evaluate your threat model.
Besides that tho posting histories are necessary for understanding the difference between a single post, and spam, or bait and disruption, or sarcasm and /pol/ shit. It not only helps us decide to ban, but it helps us decide to not ban if we see evidence that a person isn't a bad faith actor.

>>23691i think other mods should weigh in on this too, but personally my approach to this is: who and where do you think you are? This is not a supersecret underground members-only encrypted chat. It's also not a forum with accounts needed in order to post, so moderation and moderation based on IP is needed, as we regularly get automated spam. You are using a free platform for conversing and arguing with other leftists (and rabble), and all the mods believe in the (limited) mission of helping this space exist, and be clean and usable for the average poster. So while we do value the posters here, you are not a customer, and you have no ability to demand anything. We have pretty close to 0 ability to make changes to the backend right now btw, we have a dev, and they have a life outside of this. We appreciate the genuine constructive criticism, and we try to avoid stepping on the toes of good faith posters, but we have little ability to give any kinds of reforms to the site right now. Banners and flags are about it.

If you're not someone posting idpol, right-wing stuff, vitriol, and the like constantly, u have nothing to worry about. We're not combing through all the posts looking to see who's sus. It's only in the case that someone's shitting up the place that their post history becomes relevant. Obviously though one mod-action-worthy post will be dealt with, the same as a whole bunch of them. Just to reiterate, you're not penalized for having no post history - it only helps us make a decision when mod action consideration has already been triggered. If a single post is ambiguous, I leave it. If it's an ambiguous post but there's a history of nothing but flaming, then action might be taken. No history is not a strike against you.

If you're going to ban for idpol on leftypol, then don't be hypocrites and ban everyone in the conversation. I'm not even the last person to respond. And on the topic, ban people for drama. Someone made a shitpost referencing a meme about Gorky, the reaction to this is blatant hysteria.
Just for context regarding >>>/leftypol/1257827
>when someone posts some obvious idpol bait
1) Neither of the posts are mine
2) That's not obvious idpol bait, that's a screencap of liberal retardation regarding Azov and Ukraine (thread relevant) and the response is a meme based on leftypol memes, no different to lasalle memes. If it offends you and you can't handle it, then you're on the incorrect site because this is leftist politically incorrect, the site made for casual discussion and shitposting about leftist politics. You're not supposed to be molly-coddled by mods.
>retards start dogwhistling about how the fash are all homos actually
No. Retards started overreacting to a 5 word shitpost, frothing at the mouth to defend gay people that aren't in any form impacted or harmed by said post.
>how there's no such thing as a commie homo
Said nobody in the thread
>ignoring the actual history
<Akchually.png
>fascists treating LGBT like shit
Funny they ignore the "akchual" history of said nazis being homos themselves and that "LGBT" as a movement being a blatant CIA co-opt. Or that the "sexuality studies" by liberals are pseudoscience based in the same eugenic origins as Nazi racial pseudoscience. Liberals are just another form of fascist and have NEVER been communist, screencap rel.
>communists being their greater allies
Communists are not about gays or women or race, the entire point of PROLETARIAT is that there are NO divisions that matter here outside of class, and after class is abolished then any issues of specific people can be addressed, not BEFORE.
>because they did throw gays int
This has NO relevance to the post or thread at hand.
>then the "gorkyposters" want to pretend LGBT are all fans of fascism
The point of those posts is that this kind of identarian division is inherently a reactionary trait, and fascists are reactionary.
>ecause some glowies on twitter are drawing anime pics of azovites with rainbow flags
Out of context gaslighting.
So mods, if I broke the rules by pointing out the hypocrisy of liberalism, then by all means ban others for defending it. Thanks and have a good day.

Someone explain to me how moderators (wvobbly) can get away with deleting more than 4/5 of a thread which didn't even break any rules and the only thing it possibly did it veered a bit more into reactionary idpol territory, which other anons kept in check. Most of the users were discussing in good faith, sans a socdem shitposter, and even though the topic was bit touchy, no one went into all out transphobia, at most some causal bigotism which shouldn't be excused but is understandable.
This is seriously killing leftypol. The moderator should have tried to steer the discussion in the proper way, not just nuke the thread. He deleted a bunch of my posts where I was expressing my concerns and thinking – what for? I don't think that I was breaking any rules. This is childish behavior from the moderators.

Whatever action I was doing there after the fact was done mostly because another mod didn't have the time to clear it out, plus I like building up the ban list for idpolers cause it makes rangebanning them easier going into the future with a big example list to pull from.
For two we held a discussion about mod practices like a year ago and some users complained about leftover posts responding to deleted posts cluttering threads, so we adopted an initiative to delete those so long as it fell under a threshold of not effort-posty enough. The easiest way to not get your comments deleted is to not give b8ers and reactionaries (You)s, which is just something you should always be doing anyways. Like most things this is just how we've all been operating (sans cyclicals cause the dead link posts will just get recycled in time anyways), that thread was just particularly egregious cause you all decided to deep-throat some retards.

There is systematic, normalized mod abuse. Namely, many mods don't enforce the rules. As in, don't even attempt to. Banning and saging for them is arbitrary.
These are bans I found on the first page of the log, so it's not cherry-picking some rarity, this is normal. All in the last three days.
These ban reasons are just nonsense. Unconstructive and arbitrary, many amounting to nothing more substantial than 'I don't like your post'.
Furthermore, many appear to contradict the entire concept of /leftypol/, treating it like other online leftism communities instead of what it is and always has been, and what the rules describe it as.
I'm even seeing posts like last picrel, asking why mods aren't enforcing a non-existent rule that I'm guessing they were banned for, to which a mod has explained that the rule doesn't exist. Seriously…
I'm not saying that every single possible violation has to be in the rules, I understand the need for occasional flexibility, but these ban reasons defeat the entire purpose of public ban logs, consistently cause complaints of abuse (see: this thread) and utterly confuse false-positives.
Shitpost when you're a user, don't abuse privileges for your own ends.
Concrete draft proposals:
>don't allow insult ban reason
>require that all ban reasons, outside extreme cases, reference a specific rule (even if something like 'low effort sectarianism' which refers to 14 f) )
>have pre-fill ban reasons for 'Commercial spam', 'Raid spam', and other actual rules, instead of just 'spam' bans which is FREQUENTLY accused of being abused by regular users.
>publicly revise the rules with the community if you're consistently deleting posts they don't cover
>kick mods who are constantly complained about, who are better suited to other, less permissive websites
No.24164
>>24162NTA but I think it's because a new mod confused it for something against the rules.
Why would you give a shitty answer like this? You're a moderator, it's not on users to justify the ban. Are you intentionally just trying to annoy people by not answering direct questions with a simple, useful answer?

My hunch for why this happens is that u have to be a techoid to run and do all the dev work and upkeep on a standalone site like this, so it selects for a certain class strata, who for whatever 'unknown reason' hold very liberal (or conservative if you consider them socialist) outlooks.
Consider this website an act of charity by some misguided troglodytes, thank them kindly, and use their gifts or walk away. Leftypol is just a name. Seeing as there are 2 leftypols currently, and some unofficial and semi-official leftypol spaces and accounts, it's probably not the best to regard the name as a promise of quality. (not that it ever was?)
The mods currently don't see themselves as users of the site or members of the 'community', they see themselves as objective administrators of a more or less static machine (only to intervene when it breaks, or a mod or dev goes rogue and - causes the machine to break down, metpahorically). To the mods the desires users of this site are not meant to be represented in any way - which is really weird considering you'd expect the mods to at least see themselves as users, and value their own input. Not so, it seems. Mods hate leftypol. Why it still runs is anyone's guess. Probably because it provides an ego boost. I mean we all knew jannies have to be mentally ill to do what they do, right?

2) Its possible some innocent troll larped as me, got banned, perhaps ban evaded afterward, and now its seen as if I am ban evading. In that case, look at my post history. It should be some posts under anon, and the last post that got me banned where I made a Sherlock meme

No.24874
>>24867there's a mindset it seems like among some mods or just off and on with all of them (since its not consistent) of suppressing stuff that makes the site less fun (which is obviously subjective and will cause disputes like this - there's good reason to think bait has little to add, but personally i like the smug cartoon), instead of promoting stuff that they want.
You have some mods saying they are very hands off and don't want to impose top-down culture, and then you have the wobblys and misatos of the team who don't have any qualms, and so there's a different face for each accusation - under or over-moderation. I hope internally the mods can implement stricter adherence to the plain rules as stated, or stop trying to legislate every action altogether and allow the mods to have some fun, which is its own kind of positive contribution. The current state of the mod team, half deleting shit they dont like and suppressing, and half agreeing with the sentiment "sorry i just remove gore and nazis, i dont want to influence top-down", makes it highly dysfunctional for the users. I still applaud them for keeping the place CP-free and up and running though.
Mods: please just understand the actual demoralizing impact your actions can have on the boards. It only takes a few good people to make the place fun and lively. By the same token, it also only takes a few people leaving to make it dead and sterile. I think the natural oscillations in quality mask the fact that things are going downhill overall.
Think of it this way: what causes you to post? For me it's two things, either frustration (for lack of a better word), or genuine care to educate or be educated. With frustration, what's most enticing is good bait, or someone getting something just wrong enough to make it easy to jump in and feel good about answering a question, or someone making a challenge like "i'm x, i dont like communism cause [misunderstanding]". For being enticed to post for education, there have to be people who show their human side and not just be autistic, and show some real knowledge or desire to learn.
Considering the above, what happens when you remove bait threads or posts, is just that one source of interaction leaves. That's negative, quantitatively. Qualitatively i can't say, but personally everyone has their own view of what's tolerable and what's not. I know some people are more conflict averse than I am, I just laugh at weird trolls if theyre committed. If you do something to reduce interaction, you should then take a position on the opposite side to increase interaction, e.g. heavily promoting reading, praxis, etc. to the point of pinning the organizing thread for example, or even as a drastic measure moving the spectacle gawking to its own board, so more political things can be on leftypol (like about theory, or organizing, or just ppl complaining about life, or analysis of the current situation (lots of long OPs get close to 0 interaction before sliding off for "was [someone no one cares about] /ourguy/??)).
The other option is decide if you want to lean into allowing a more conflictual atmosphere, not moderating on ideology and just removing trash and really noxious stuff. But that would require binding the moderators to a code of conduct which has suspensions and eventually de-modding if not followed. Do you guys have the will and cohesion to be able to do that? Which way, leftypol jan?

0) Don't 3 hour the Tor node.
1) That post was a dumb take, but that is all. They were literally clarifying in reply to a question. Dumb takes are not against the rules. Dumb takes have never been against the rules.
2) That post is anti-Zionist and maybe anti-Judaism at worst, not even anti-semetic.
3) Even if it was, anti-semitism is not a rule violation.
3a) inb4: Racism is not against the rules either.
3b) inb5: Nazism isn't even against the rules. If you think it is, you are not fit to moderate this site.

Honestly, the solution isn't removing the feature for mods, because the problem is that people reckless enough to misuse it are given the power to list posts by IP. They'd most likely just do it by hand if the feature was removed.
No.25522
>>25520From context, I'm gonna go ahead and assume you're pasquale.
It's not 'raging autism' to be annoyed at authorities using indecipherable reasons when creating bans or deleting posts. The ban log is public by choice. with the intent of providing transparency.
I kind of assumed that someone choosing to be on a socialist imageboard would just intrinsically understand why the behavior of any privileged few is absolutely relevant and potentially dangerous. As you so used to identifying as a janny that you don't empathize with us anymore?
We have rules. The volunteers are expected to work within those rules, outside of rare unforeseen extreme exceptions. That's why they were written.
Both those two last reasons
are nonsense. Neither are connectable to a rule. Neither violate expectations we have for posters using the site. One of them appears to be (because you didn't give any reason) is a 15 minute ban for someone saying they liked Eugene's post. Now, if it was something that actually deserved moderator action (protip: no) then you would make a mod capcode reply, not fucking ban them for disagreeing with you.
And if you think I'm misinterpreting the situation with my guess of what happened, then it's just proof that the ban reason was useless. You just abused the redtext feature to raise high your opinion that someone was boring……. what the fuck kind of reason is that anyway? Someone
bored you? Just hide their post.
No, schizoposting is not defined. Nor is it something considered outside the expectations of /leftypol/, unless it's off-topic like the ANORECTAL VIOLENCE spammer. That's what schizoposting is. Given your warning for someone talking about someone else you found boring, schizoposting could be anything from cult O9A spam to an argument you felt wasn't explained well enough, or didn't fit your world view.
Critique of how a ruling class (and people who can delete our posts are absolutely privileged rulers) behaves and abuses its power isn't 'autism'. I shouldn't have to explain that to you. We're socialists.

The fact you have "called me out" and dropped a whole lot of 'tells' (too much knowledge, familiar expression etc.) suggests you expect a certain reaction from me, does it not? Well, I am way too polite for that. I am so polite after I fuck your mom I inquire about your well-being.
There is a lot of questions I have about this behavior. Really what keeps me engaging is not primarily anger (euphemistically called aggression by you) but a morbid curiosity. However, I think trying to get answers from you is like trying to get water from a stone. So let me ask a final question. What is the endgame of the laissez-faire philosophy? Cause as far as I can see, what inevitably has happened and would happen again is that the field would be totally taken over by repetitive maniacal 24/7 online posters. So in the end any relevant distinction to other places of similar design is gone. Then I think you'd look around and say "wow that was a waste of time, might as well have stayed on 4chan". That's what I predict would happen and I believe it to be a well-founded prediction.

critique of so-called ancaps. It wasn't reactionary, at all.
And, even if it was, the rule you're referring too says:
>and thus will be removed if they prove a nuisance or disrupt the normal functioning of the site.>Low-effort raiders will be banned.>Opening posts with liberalism or reactionary topics will be treated with far more scrutiny to prevent them filling the catalog.The rule is to stop the catalog being filled with 10 different threads of libs and lolberts saying "Marx didn't consider mudpies", "Sanders is better than AOC" and seriously unusable raid posts saying "SOCIALIST JOOS DID COVID9/11". The rule was made when we were getting constant raids and.visiting libs in the wake of the 2020 election, now it's basically just there for monthly raids.
So again, please don't put extra work on yourself. It's just confusing people.

The point of that rotating range ban is likely just to root out the users who try to appeal and it and kick up a fuss. A good user would trust the mod's judgement and wait out the ban. However a user who spams the /meta/ thread causing the mods a headache probably has something to hide or a pre-existing issue with the moderation. It's looking like you fall into the second category.

Hello,
why was the Graham Hancock thread saged/anchored? I thought mods had to explain their actions, or are you not doing that any more?
It's funny how human ice age history that can't be proven/disproven based on current evidence, is rejected in favour of the mainstream view, meanwhile Lysenko threads stay up, despite modern genetics disproving Lysenkoism once and for all.
At least move the thread to /siberia/ or /edu/ rather than anchoring it. I have responded to everyone in the thread, even those who came to mock and ridicule, rather than engage.
Why anchor it? It has more replies out of the top ~20 threads that aren't generals. It obviously strucka nerve with some and people were engaging with the topic.
Do you just anchor every popular thread or what?

Hello, mods, I come with another petition.
Can you move my thread back to /leftypol/? If anything, it should be moved to /hobby/, /tech/ or /edu/. (Yes, /edu/ because even if a topic starts with what you think is a wrong premise or statement, it is still an opportunity to educate. Not my fault the libs are failing at that.
Furthermore, the thread is not "off-topic" because:
>talks about how a lost civilisation relates to HistMat in the OP
>talks about liberals and their arguments against communism
>talks about liberal capitalist institutions and how they end up being gatekeepers
>talks about differences and measuring of scientific theories
>we even talked about Nazis and fascists, esoteric Nazism and stuff, that alone makes it "on-topic"
It is not reactionary either, even though the rules allow reactionary shit. No, going against liberal ideology does not make one a "reactionary".
The liberals in the thread posted the MiniMinuteman youtube "debunk" 3-4 times. The guy is obviously a fucking lib, complete with limp-wrists and lame jokes. I can't wait until he comes up with a youtube video why Marx was an idiot or how capitalism is actually super cool. Then posting his videos will be frowned upon, until then, let's all rally behind the fucking liberals, because that worked out for people in the past, right?
How do people on this board not get it by now that allying with liberals or carrying water for them does not help us one single bit?
No.25947
>>25946oops forgot the link to thread in question (it is the Lost Civilisation "schizo" one)

>>25947To add, I don't think it's cash money that one lib came into the thread and shouted "Nazi! Nazi! Nazi!" then after a few days incredulously asked how the thread is still going. As if everyone has the attention span of a youtube addict with a fried brain. Then the libs practically bullied the jannies to move the thread to /siberia/, effectively killing it, because God forbid 1 thread out of 350 threads is about something they don't like or don't agree with.
Where is the person who cares about Nazism so much now? Where are the truth-seekers and arbiters of science and pseudoscience?
It is obvious I was discussing in good faith, and bringing up various topics relevant to politics and our communist project. Yet people couldn't get past the title, despite the effort.
Then people ask "but why is it only soyjaks and shitposting???" Cause any time anyone puts effort into a slightly different or novel thread, it gets anchored, deleted or moved to /siberia/. Every thread has to fulfill a million requirements, so catalog is left with generals, simple questions from rightoids that have been answered a million times before, or bait/shitposts.
Like fuck you, go make effort posts about the topics you want. Don't fucking hang there on a rope like a fucking lazy mussel, opening your mouth, filtering what comes through, waiting for a tasty morsel in the form of an effortpost.

Here to appeal my ban as nothing I've posted violates any of the rules, let alone for a site-wide ban, includig /meta/. I have argued in good faith, cited sources/proofs, including posts from /leftypol/ & as stated, nowhere have I dehumanized, attacked or hurt trans people. By deleting my pot you are just hiding this fact. If anything peple have argued in bad faith with me, screaming ad hom, or purposely misrepresenting my argument.
For example
>>>/leftypol/1412651 claims that "nobody sez' the thing in pic posted, except that I have seen it, & earlier I posted proof in the form of screencaps of a feminist being told that their right to refusal in having sex with trans people is phobic. Nobody is obligated to do anything for you romantically or sexually, hell no-one even owes you friendship and for any reason they so desire. This is like saying a woman being raped by a man is asking for it because the reason for not consenting was that she wasn't interested in white men or black men and she was racist for denying their sexual advances.
My point has been & remains socialist: Most identity based oppression was created by material conditions, and all identity based oppression is perpetuated by material conditions. Of course the easy example is blacks and the prison industrial complex; all set up through CIA-orchestrated drug trade and ghetto system. You also have stuff like the replication of class character by porky, where porky creates certain rules that limits social mobility so that their offspring are more likely to stay as porkies and anyone who becomes porky will be of a similar character to them, so the existing mechanisms become self-perpetuating. Of course this means along identity lines because of nationalistic and other kinds of pragmatic reasoning, which is something that has only recently been challenged by "woke" liberalism. Woke liberalism instead has the exact same mechanism but just replace identity traits with corporate loyalty and ideological purity. There is also the suppression of class mobility of the lower classes through a million different mechanisms like gentrification, ghettoification, so on, and you get the point. Even things like racism are harnessed, used, and promoted by either petite-bourg reactionaries or porky to secure the existing class mechanisms and replicate it with their own self-image. The idea that there is a distinction between "identity oppression" and class oppression is a foolish one, there is always a material basis for these oppressions, albeit sometimes abstract. Thus the true reason for "why not just focus on the idpol" is to retard the development of actual social change and instead allow for the liberal's performative liberation politics, where there will be "de jure" social liberation but the maintenance of that oppression through other means, often bureaucratic or material.
TL;DR: Identity Politics are rarely legitimate and when they are its almost always issues that can be solved with 1 thing, eliminate capitalism and institute socialism, done; 90% of identity problems solved, the rest are just attention whoring. I'm saying that because the movements were inherently about victimhood (and still are) that they will attract the worst people ever. (SJW's and spiteful losers) There needs to be some kind of quality control and self-criticism

You call everyone schizo, yet it is all of you mods who need mental help.
I thought there was some /pol/ shit posted from it, but euthanasia?! Just call this Sovietchan and be done with it, because apparently Soviet Union, its history and its (former) satellite states are the only topics allowed.
I don't blame you though, just like I don't blame the down syndrome kid for not being a rocket scientist. The internet has turned your brain plastic, you can't think creatively, or abstractly, you're unable to make thematic connections between topics, everything must be spelled out for you.
Look at this thread, so many "false positives" because you've stopped looking at the merits of a thread and post, now it is a game to ban the reactionary. To you, every thread is made by a "cryptoreactionary" until proven otherwise. Your collective paranoia has turned the mod team into a bunch of ghouls who think their only purpose is to delete and ban.
When is the last time a mod wrote an effort post? When is the last time a mod contributed to the site? By your own admission there was only one "dev", who just recently quit. What the fuck do the other dozen mods do?
I don't need to see post IPs to recognise the same people thread to thread. And what is becoming obvious is that the IP numbers are inflated. You say this website gets 1000 visitors a month, I use 10-15 different IPs to post from, and I'm not the only one. This site is controlled by the matrix clique and I know my thread was anchored cause it offended dutch people.

>>26545Seethe honestly. I've never had a single issue with Pasq
Imagine getting this pissy with any other public facing volunteer because of their tone. If you aren't gonna put work in yourself then you can't both 1.whine constantly and attempt to create more work to be done or interpersonal conflict 2.be the good guy on the high horse just lookin out for the heckindowntrodden gulag archipelago unprivileged posters.
If there is a problem that need correcting point it out and if the system is working then it will be corrected. You can sometimes get a certain action changed by kicking up a stink for long enough but at a cetain point you are just stroking your own ego. A good janny can develop the ability to deduce in a moments time with minimal energy the difference between a real user offering constructive criticism in good faith even if it does not suit them well and creates more work for them. (Here complaining and public shaming can be useful sometimes)- a good janny can distinguish this within a sufficient lapse of time and energy from the dedicated spammers that will make the same complaints but without the focus on solutions and a pattern of behaviour that betrays ulterior motives. But as a legit person with legit concerns you wanna see resolved you gotta temper youself as well and if a janny is constantly stealing your bike and fucking your women and using nato psyops to hypnotize you to shove bottles up your ass, then you are making a you problem.Whether this is recognized as such by any given observer has consequences in the amount of butthurt and energy spent by all parties on arguing but it does not change the fundamental issues at hand, which are actually more simple than they+all the combined opinions people have on them are. Remember that you and me and everyone else are temporary actors on a public platform which interfaces with wider systems and novel creations. The focus in my understanding should be on fixing specific problems, not denouncing this person or that person or worshipping this person or that person. So why do I come to the defence of Pasq here? I am not an objective dr manhatten totally disconnected from the minutae of this leftypol system. Why would I be? I have my particular concerns as do you but anyways I think we both should be able to step back a minute and seriously consider the motives and consequences of our actions, in this case posting in this thread on leftypol,org. And yeah I say this as a person very much concerned with grander objectives and pinciples and critique of self and others, I am not attempting to flex or whatever.
More to the point I would suggest (in my opinion if you can believe that) do not complain about a volunteer on the site you use without a point, do not complain excessively, do not complain for any other reason than to solve a problem be it currently active or regularly recurring. To do otherwise is 1.to bite the hand that feeds you and 2.not going to solve the problem you wish to solve assuming that is why you are complaining
if it's not then it is up to the mod to deduce this and refuse to engage and invest energy and time into such an interaction. You see how this dynamic is bigger than one person?
Lastly this is not a salaried position. There is a dialectic between the interests of the moderator and the poster when common problems or divergent interests arise. Sometimes it is easily solved through mutual agreement, sometimes concessions from one or both parties are needed. But jannies are not paid in a customer service role. This is a volunteer position. Sometimes volunteers abuse positions of power given to them. Posters like I said are also volunteers. The point if I had one being that civility and a focus on solutions rather than personal character will usually lead to a more streamlined and perhaps satisfactory problem resolution. None of the current mods are set to be removed for unnacceptable behaviour so you are going to have to learn to live with them. If you refuse to do so and smugly change your ip to spout your righteous unfiltered and free speech then the ball is in the mods court and the dialectic of posting/removal comes into force in which the mods by design (as with any other site no?) have an advantage. It will cost you more energy and time and effort and in the end why are you bothering? I may be biased but imo volunteering with the motive of helping improve or maintain the quality of an online communication platform is 1 for 1 more meaningful than spending your time trying to undo that or decrease the quality of x place.

>>26574Lol, when the war is over (and really, before the war is over) anons will find other happenings and topics to occupy themselves with. They, like the war, will draw in new posters and perpetuate the cycle, like a current pushing a water mill. Jannies just keep the whole thing lubricated so it keeps spinning smoothly, we can't specifically direct the tide and people who try to resist it tend to get swept away.
>>2658499.9% of all bans administered are pre-defined reasons if only because we have tweaked the system to be the path of least resistance - it's like 2 clicks to ban someone using the predefined ban list, versus all the keystrokes it takes to administer a custom ban. Any custom bans are either slaps on the wrist for non-serious offenders, or someone doing a silly. Fighting industrial-grade schizophrenics spamming the place requires the fine-tuning of your systems to optimize banning such that, as a war of attrition, jannies can always come out on top. And that we have - taking care of routine spam is easier than ever, and they have less prominence than they ever have. The mechanical system of moderation is working perfectly, and the social system of moderation is still functional for inter-mod communications, so long as everyone is willing to engage with it.
As far as we're concerned, most of the big moderation problems of the last while are pretty much solved, we're recruiting new jannies and a few techies to build up so that some of the more veteran or otherwise occupied mods can worry less about being constantly active. The system is being actively passed on to a new generation, who we believe will execute on it with good measure.
No.26588
>>26584>>26587My point being, mods act upon the issues they see from their perspective. Is it possible there are things the mods cannot see from this perspective which are important? Sure, however if it is the case then you are not good at articulating what those things are. Like, people saying we should "ban less" is just - what? Ban less how? Ban less spamming schizos? Ban you less for being one such spamming schizo? The overwhelming amount of bans are just handfuls of chronic spammers. "Real users" have, on average, no bans on their history and will never need a ban because the rules are very lax and easy to comply to.
If there is some kind of systematic issue on the execution of moderation, now really is the time to voice them in an articulate and specific manner. There are bright-eyed recruits absorbing our procedures and practices to enforce it themselves, and saying something patently insane like "ban less" won't convince anyone to think about our practices because it just betrays how little the situation is understood.

I am asking not out of defensiveness. I am asking both 1 as a critique of your argument but also 2.to give you the opportunity to express specific complaints of yours and how you see they may be resolved. I am not talking to you right now specifically with an interest in the personal character of whatever personas and human beings are interacting here. This is not a social club where social capital can be exchanged for this or that and I frankly do not have time i my one and only life for denouncing petty squabbling over this person or that being cringe or whatever to no end. I am of course swayed by the sheer heat of emotion at times as are most if not all people, but this is not one of those times. If you complain for the sake of complaining my ears are shut, I only wanna hear problems and solutions, that is why I volunteer time and energy here, beyond any personal biases of you or me or anyone else.
>now what? you continue to complain and concern troll and effect no change whatsoever on vague and unactionable "criticisms" having expended energy and time that you cannot get back having not met any sort of goals you construct to yourself. And I reply with less energy and time replying to you but fundamentally in control of my emotions and actions and having fulfilled the duties of my volunteer position to a satisfactory (in my analysis/opinion) degree. Is it a waste of time? Perhaps, perhaps not.

>Then quit. Holy shit, no
>just because you do it for free doesn't make you better than the users, I implied via my "posters are also volunteers" comment that I do not see things in this way, jannies and non janny posters are both users. jannies have some duties that non posters do not have, to perform these duties they are trusted with certain powers and the work they must do is that which the non deputized posters and the site as a whole rely on to be healthy. this is why skilled interlopers trying to negatively effect a website will try and cause drama involving mods and aggravate relations between and within mods and non mod users.

>do you think you are jesus christ on the cross sent by the users to speak for them and be offended for them in the exact ways in which you yourself personally are offended and wish to speak? do you think anyone else believes that?I'm saying that many users rather than write complaints that fall on deaf ears will just leave. Now I see I'm an idiot for staying and trying to be a positive influence.
>actually I think it's you and I would suggest you not pick fights with people that you can only "lose" OK. Nobody is picking fights. You say things like "it's on you, I don't want to make you feel bad" and so on, yet you're the one who takes criticism personally. You're the only one talking about "losing" because of your adversarial attitude. It's the mods vs. "bad users", and all users could be bad users in disguise.

This is absolutely constructive. The site is being negatively impacted, we're posting evidence of rule violations from staff and explaining how they impact the site. You want bad faith? Look at any (and I mean approxiately 100%) of pasqs replies here. "Didn't read", "seethe", "im too busy to take feedback", those are textbook examples of bad faith.
By the way, you literally paraphrased "profiling".
>So why do I come to the defence of Pasq here?I'd wager class solidarity, as a forum moderator who is interpreting criticisms of pask's behaviour as an attack on the staff's image as a whole.
>Lastly this is not a salaried position.I know, I janny/mod three communities for years and haven't earned a dime. You ain't got the answers, Sway. I've been doing this more than you.
Work isn't automatically beneficial because it's done by volunteers.
If the person next to me serves raw chicken in a volunteer shelter and you complain its raw, you're not pointlessly complaining about something which isn't a problem, and if it keeps happening and you start shouting, you're not complaining excessively.

post 2 and 3 are serious, and not grounds for a ban, though I see you conveniently missed out posts that I know you saw where I mentioned that I am purposefully not consistent between threads (because idgaf about identity). Moreover disagreeing with you is not grounds for a ban.
In the case that you're being genuine, then I'm sorry that I made you feel weird, but your behaviour across threads is bordering on very ugly obsession and you're making the experience of the board a lot worse for other users who actually legitimately want to engage with my theory posts. I feel you're being very selfish and totalising in this regard by refusing to give other people space to engage. And I have to say your behaviour in many places comes across as pretty severe gaslighting, if not spamming.
I can tell that you're harbouring a pretty big grudge against me and I don't think it's justified, rational, or healthy. If it makes you feel better, I don't hold the same grudge back, I'm a pretty tolerant person. I think you'd feel differently if you took a breather and came back to my posts without this tension you've built up towards me.

>lot worse for other users who actually legitimately want to engage with my theory postsYou, and your cult, are in the minority in this regard. Most of the posters abhor your

For the record to the anfem poster none of the responses you've gotten so far are official responses from the moderating team who when posting on /meta/ will turn their mod flag on and identify themselves so the post is clearly from the volunteer team
What you're getting is other anons spitballing about the reasons
My guess is it's because the argument in the thread is going in circles and due to it being on feminism requires more effort and attention moderating and they are tired and don't have time
For what It's worth I'd prefer it to be unbumplocked since I'd like to give it a serious response next weekend
I would also recommend easing up on the moderation of it just let jackarses be jackarses in it and let the conversation flow less work for you and if it flows more freely it might break out of the circle it's in and if it doesn't it'll autosage and anchor itself at the 500 or 600 post mark anyway

Anfem poster I'd recommend if you're going to repost rewrite the OP attatch the .pdf of the book in question to the OP and engage in the thread in a way that avoids what lead to this since the topic is your baby
I'd also recommend a less conversational tone in your posting just respond to posts that seem substantive and engaging to you with substantive and engaging responses and if something seems too stupid or bad faith for words just leave it after all if you're correct in your assessment eventually someone else will find them so irritating that they'll respond

>a hundred repliesI don't count them of course. But here we are at the main point. Why is it that people should be allowed to slander me endlessly but when they get just the tiniest pushback, it's a big deal. Just think about that. Where is this dev? Why did he stop replying? All I wanted was to have a civilized talk. Or maybe a meta discussion. Like calling people cops is not a good idea in this milieu (if you want to have a civilized talk) which I also tried to impress upon him. I remember already telling him that a long time ago. Evidently, without any success.
So let me make suggestions for improvements. Either step the fuck up or back the fuck off. What this means is work to improve the site in whatever (limited) capacity without asking for things in return or don't try (trying here being following whatever instinct it is that compels you to try to pick a fight with me). Because, again, doing the same thing over and over again won't force reality to change. I have already laid all this out. There is no room for confusion here, only willful ignorance.

>>26932>Stop making things up>Pask made the commitment himself to stop posting in /meta/.The announcement "Pask has agreed to stop posting on /meta/." uses the word "agree" which implied it was a proposal from another that they accepted. If I'm wrong, then sure, I'm wrong, we can't see your meetings and rely on the little communication we get to try and figure out how this place works.
I'm not 'making things up', I'm reading what was written. And if that's a miscommunication and I'm wrong, then I retract that accusation, and replace it with:
>Speaking of hyperfixation, aren't you the mod who made literally a hundred replies to the dev resignation thread and then agreed not post on /meta/ but did anyway?
>or else don’t get upset when we don’t listen to you.Ignoring people because they gave feedback you think is false is an atrocious attitude. What the fuck.
>>26938Hey, I just didn't expect to see someone else so smug and defensive replying. Take it as a complement, or something.
>What's it [that] you what I want and don't want?Basic steps towards a decent user experience.
And that doesn't sound like much, but even super basic suggestions from other mods were ignored within a week, and complaints about posts deleted for no reason either ignored or mocked with shitposts.
Look at this blatant arrogance:
>If the Dev couldn't accomplish your goals, what chance do you have?Like someone said earlier, it's not even your fault. You blatantly don't give a fuck about the users, the site rules or the other staff's suggestions. If anything, you're doing the best you can to either get the other staff off their asses or to expose them as frauds. Sure, it's killing the site. And if the site is run by other mods who let you do it, then unfortunately the sooner it dies, the better.
>Why is it that people should be allowed to slander me endlessly but when they get just the tiniest pushback, it's a big deal.Because the slander is accusations of malpractice against an authority. Someone who has their posts deleted for no clear reason is bound to start accusing the people who deleted them. And when it's the same few names each time, with no sign of improvement over multiple years, it's going to become personal criticism sooner or later.
>Why did he stop replying? All I wanted was to have a civilized talk.You can't look at your posts in that thread and seriously tell me you were attempting civilized talk with anyone.
>k>my name only appeared once>jar jar>didn't read lolIn fact, this post I'm replying to, despite not being "a serious reply", is more civil than anything you wrote there.
>Like calling people cops is not a good idea in this milieuI'll agree. I get they were trying to make a comparison to authority but it's still in poor taste.
>step the fuck up>What this means is work to improve the site … without asking for things in return<If the Dev couldn't accomplish your goals, what chance do you have?A wonderful dilemma you've given us. Improve the site or don't try.
Our obvious, repeated complaint is mods are just deleting whatever they want.
So, the limited capacity to improve that aspect of the site is… complaining on /meta/ about it and hoping the mod team will finally listen. Because volunteering for the site obviously isn't an effective way forward if feedback here isn't.
Either that or incite users to split the site, and even I don't want that to happen. The site is dying fast enough already.

>because they gave feedback you think is falseReasonable reaction to someone blatantly misrepresenting reality constantly.
>bound to>going to becomeThese two sentences in general show a detachment from reality that impresses even me. Not only do you assume that the slander must be correct but there is not even agency assigned to those engaging in it! I have agency, you don't. Of course everything runs against you.
>didn't expect to see someone else so smug and defensive replying. Take it as a complimentThe height of mature civilized behavior. Disgusting. "I was wrong but this doesn't matter. And I'm right anyway because I feel vindicated. Also have more insults."
Is this the fabled me-me-me generation?
You're very committed (to being a twat) but all you do is backwards and wrong. These are facts. You don't have the mindset of wanting to improve this place in the least, only self-aggrandizement. Hence there is no way to have a civilized, serious talk.
>You can't look at your posts in that thread and seriously tell me you were attempting civilized talk with anyone.I have a lot of patience but even that runs out on occasion.
Sorry (for not passing the liberal civility test)
One time in this odyssey of a post you want the site to die, then next you don't want that to happen. You should decide on what you want.
>You blatantly don't give a fuckWhat is it with you people and lack of political education? Why are you trying to guess at other's intentions (which you are completely unqualified to do)? It doesn't matter.
This is a sure way to identify a liberal. I am not trying to be rude but it has to be said. We need to look out for liberal behavior and latent liberalism.
And I get that I am basically Satan to liberals (or left-identified people with no political education) but like come on. Try to hide it.
The two previous splits were directly caused by this. Space_ shirking any work but not letting go of his power. Zer0 believing wreckers uncritically.
So maybe that's why I am quick on the draw?
Why is tone so important to you anyway (serious question btw)?
>said not to post on /meta/ but did anywayI don't post unless people blatantly try to spread lies in which case I may (sometimes) be compelled to reply. Why is that a problem? I've already made this joke but I really could send someone else. It just so happens that I am an expert on the topic of discussion (maybe we can subsume it under liberal pathology).
>volunteering for the site obviously isn't an effective way forward if feedback here isn'tThis is
blatantly saying 'if crying is of no use actually doing anything obviously is of no use either"
>mods are just deleting whatever they want.What the fuck does that even mean? Why do you think stuff gets deleted? Why do you think people moderate? Why would anyone want to have anything to do with this sort of thing? Why engage in this discussion? What is whatever they want? Who decides that?
