Hello everyone, we have discussed the possibility of restarting /roulette/ in our latest meeting, we have come up with some idea for your consideration:
/grass/ - Board for everything non internet/screen/media related, eg cooking, sports, fitness, making friends, drugs, whatever. Cause we could all use a bit less internet.
/life/ - Pretty much the same as above but about only 'lifestyle' topics like cooking etc.
/tv/ - Television board since there are multiple active TV topics on /hobby/ and the general has gone to 500.
/antianglo/ - Board where no English language is allowed
OR
/antianglo/ - Board where nobody from the anglosphere is allowed (CANZUK+US) but English is allowed
OR
/antianglo/ - Board where everyone is allowed but discussion of Anglosphere-related things is not allowed. Learn a bit about other cultures and so on.
Any other ideas also welcomed. Please let us know any feedback on these ideas or your suggestions.
As for /x/ we have decided not to create it as a board due to the lack of popularity during the original 30 day run. But maybe we can try some old board ideas again in the future.
209 posts and 33 image replies omitted.>3 IPs circlejerking for hoursThis temper tantrum changes nothing. You don't have to love, hate or even respect the mod team. We are not here for that. You just have to accept it.
>>24046>derails thread to whine about moderation>doesn't want to participate when the people that agrees with him derails by airing their actual grievance with moderation andHow cute.
>>24045How would they know which idea would be like that unless they actually try it? We can cannibalize boards that slowed down. And more importantly why not?
You are shifting the goalposts. First you say Roulette wasn't made for flavour of the month, then you say people won't want it. Who is this 'people' you speak of? And where were there when we created roulette last year?
>>24052Roulette is going nowhere.
>>24035>>24007NSFW is staying in siberia. Coomers are contained.
>>24066Too much effort.
>>24065>>24067Yea no english sounds. You can still talk about Anglo things (since it is going to be nightmare defining it), but just not with English.
>>24075it's a sign of immaturity not to be able to take criticism, learn and grow. but instead insist you did nothing wrong or that your actions are impeccable. most mods are underage or still in their "young adult" stage of life and have no idea what they're doing beyond "I don't like it, therefore I can remove it because I have the power to do so"
how many users have left because of wvobbly, pasquale and moody and their knee-jerk reactions and "delete by IP"? moderation thread is full of "you got caught up when we were dealing with spammers" (or /pol/ or whatever). nobody wants to post on a website where if they say the wrong thing, or if a mod doesn't understand what the person wrote, all of their posts get deleted. it's worse than reddit, because at least you get banned from a single subreddit, here you get a site-wide ban, even /meta/. when you complain in /meta/ abort your ban, they ban you for "ban evasion", despite the OP of the moderation thread saying "dispute your bans here".
e.g.
>>>/meta/23777>Technically I have you by rights on ban evasion there's nothing worse than an internet forum moderator. they get a tiny bit of "power" on an insignificant corner of the internet and love abusing it. it's all the people who are bullied IRL, can't stand up to others, meekly say yes, sir, no sir, and avert their gaze. but as soon as they come here they pretend they're some big shot and take out their impotence and frustrations on users.
>>24076Exactly.
I honestly think I'm done with /leftypol/.
Years ago, when most of these mods probably weren't even in fucking high school, earlier iterations of this website had quality posters that did so much to educate others. The quality of the site has dropped like a rock as people who know better leave.
>>24079They have been doing this for a long time. I stopped posting in this thread because I realised I was reverting to the futile activity of trying to make them actually care about something beyond their own egos, but they literally do not and cannot.
They don't care about the site, the left, anything at all besides the fact they get to mod here and making it how they want.
Its honestly a sick parody of my experience with most IRL leftist groups. A group of people build something new and cool, attractive to lots of people, then some bunch of insane trots or whatever sink their teeth into it, suck the life out of it, destroy everything that made it good in the first place, and then double and triple down on everything. They have fanatical ideological beliefs and absolutely nothing matters but their implementation, even if it is to the obvious detriment of all.
Think the UK labour party under Keir Starmer.
>>24073>posts from bumped off by more active English posts but call it something else like /polygot/ or /lingo/Fine we will call it the politically correct /lingo/.
I think so far the new suggestions are
>/long/: Long posts only
>/jam/: Audio files only. No images
>/green/: Nature and environmentalism, horticulture, zoology and maybe agriculture
>/health/ or /life/: Fitness, mental health, diet, supplements, herbs, first aid info, drugs and biohacking in generalI will add them in the next iteration. Probably randomize which board gets it.
>>24075>>24076I don't really care about what you think about the bans.
>>24080>I stopped posting in this thread becauseOr maybe you stopped posting coz you got your facts wrong about the mod team's formation and relationship to NM.
> then some bunch of insane trots or whatever sink their teeth into it,You are the insane trots in this dynamic tbh fam. Whine all day everyday like some 21st century Orwell.
>>24082We will if /isg/ gets too big or too fast. It is probably the endgoal for such a general.
>>24085>>24087We will discuss cannibalizing slow boards and probably do so for AKM and draw. But again entries in roulette doesn't need to guarantee success, merely be interesting for a time.
>>24086当时我们在开会讨论这个主题时，大部分的版主不是盎格鲁。你也真傻，如果版主们都是盎格鲁，我们连这些字“盎格鲁”不会知道，还能愿意用那些字呢？！
>>24088>cannibalize /draw/Nah we can't give up on recruiting drawfriends
that shit is important for keeping the community alive and making dank propaganda. What it probably needs is its own identity, and promoting people to learn to draw. The tutorials there are a plus for that already.
Sorry, I accidenctally pressed the button. Ignore:
>>24112Anyway, I was just thinking: why not make the roulette board a bulkanize board? It would let us see if whether or not it's a good idea, we can still keep the original boards if things go bad, and we can give the balkanize board a head start by importing threads.
If we do that I'm pushing for the merge of /games/ and /anime/, maybe call it /entertainment/
>>24106>>24007I love porn, but we shouldn't do that. Porn boards don't actually contain conversations &'re just places to dump what you're into.
i>>1280561
We shouldn't. /siberia/ functions well as a higher quality of /b/, banning porn would hurt the board since what "should be deleted" will fall under a slippery slope.
Also porn makes the pph increase which encourages the use of the board, the problem with /games/, /anime/, and /tech/ – are that they feel/are dead and it no one wants to be the one person to revive the board(s).
