Just taking a poll of the users here. There always seems to be contradictory feedback on whether the mods are too strict, too lenient, or too inconsistent. So I'd like to make an unofficial poll to judge the userbase's opinions on the issue - and yes, VPNs are banned.

survey link: https://strawpoll.com/NMnQNpDBBg6

Poll closes on 2024-01-19.

ORDINANCES:
1. H*z is banned. Any mention of, depiction of, video, audio, or image (including memes) of, or related to, the individual known as Adam Tahir (more commonly known as Haz Al-Din), including associated projects such as the media collective "Infrared", or the US-based "American Communist Party" founded in 2024, etc. are BANNED.

2. No non O.C. Wojaks, Pepes, or Groypers. Any Wojaks, pepes, groypers, etc. which are not /leftypol/ original content are considered spam.

3. The Wojakifcation/wojak script is banned. This is a bit of javascript, commonly used on bunkerchan, which takes a post one is replying to and posts a greentext version of it in a pre-made wojak template, which is used as a reaction image.

4. 'Real Proletarian' rhetoric which implies a large percentage of wage workers are not proletarians is banned - per modocracy vote passed on 2024-12-25

5. For original posts outside of /siberia/, "coomer bait" images which are sexual, sexualizing, or appeal to the prurient interest in any way are BANNED and will be spoilered or removed. - per modocracy vote passed on 2025-01-02

6. Evading original post word minimum outside /siberia/ is BANNED. - per modocracy vote passed on 2025-01-02

7. Incel posts are banned site wide (i.e. incel talking points and making 9999 threads complaining about women, saying all women are bourgeoise/sluts/etc.) - per modocracy vote passed on 2025-01-02

8. "Feral" furry porn (i.e. drawn or cartoon pornography depicting a character that is a four-legged animal, or to a significant degree non-anthropomorphic) is BANNED, and will be spoilered or removed at the moderator's discretion - per modocracy vote passed on 2025-01-11

9. Climate change denial, especially to the extent of excessive doomerism and BP shill tier takes, is banned - per modocracy vote passed on 2025-01-11
143 posts and 9 image replies omitted.

is it possible for the meme responses to be removed? i didnt know that "other" would add my writings as a whole new voting part and now ive accidentally made the single largest text for a vote option.
idk if its cheating to directly tell you what i voted/made but fuck it, mods can just remove it if they care
>i joined around middle of '24. i may not have enough expiernce with this site but they have been adequate and i like you for the most part, infinetly better than 4chan (not much of a challenge tho). go with the plan (this is first im hearing about it tho) just be a 5% more strict with the new users and try advertising on different sites too, try youtube adds.

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN, MODDING IS TOO STRICT!

>>39339
The first order is to stop banning people for shitting on furries. being a furry is not like being any ethnicity nor sexuality nor gender identity, nor any actual idpol identity imaginable. it is literally a choice, a choice made primarily by the petit bourgeoisie.

Life is like a mountain and I'm falling down the mountain.

>>39340
there is already a partial furry ban per ordinance 8

>>39340
>what gets you off is a conscious choice
you know what, ban *me* from this hellsite

>>39339
What do you get when accounting for the 500 additional options that basically say the exact same thing as each-other?

Real talk, I can't imagine what a version of this site with less moderation would even look like, short of people starting outright porn threads on /leftypol/. We're at the point where 90% of posts are more or less
>Kill yourself 🥱

If things keep going the way they are, I can't see myself staying here much longer, and I doubt I'm the only one.

>>39340
>a choice made primarily by the petit bourgeoisie.
The first order (of business) is to start banning people for calling everything they personally dislike bourgeoisie.

>>39344
the poll was created with 3 options, the rest are user created

>new ordinances are on an entirely different board only used by people who never touch grass instead of right in front on the most popular board
This team's ineptitude knows no bounds.

Place really has gone to the dogs

>>39346
>never touch grass
>admits to visiting each board individually rather than using the overboard

>>39346
>>39348
its a fair point so i have added them

>>39347
Woof

>>39347
It seems as retarded as ever to me, but at least my posts calling out idiots don't get deleted these days.

>>39350
It's a doggy dog world.

>mods need to be way harder on /pol/ shit dressed up as leftism
That'd be nice if they were also hard on leftism dressed up as communism.

Since the ordinances are here too: Ordinance 8 needs to be reworked to make a distinction between zoo and feral, where if the character's sapience is for any reason questionable whilst being feral *then* it should be banned. A flat ban on any nsfw between 4 and 5 on the furry scale is rediculous and ignores the root issue.

>>39194
sounds good 2 me, especially the first three. thanks fellas

>>39329
>>39328
Typical lack of collective self-awareness

>>39321
retard

you should really be able to vote on multiple options in the poll given how many positions youve allowed there to be

>>39357
the positions are user created anon

are we gonna get mod feedback on the user feedback?

>>39359
Poll ain’t over yet

there are TOO MANY RULES and TOO FEW MODS and i have a sneaking suspicion that an indeterminate number of the current mod team may actually be incompetent!

why on earth are there so many rules for things that are not even RELEVANT to a *left-wing* *politics* *discussion* *board* ?

and what in tarnation is a "modocracy"???
if it is what i assume it is, why is the administration of this site sincerely TRYING to waste everybody's time with this ridiculous live action role play of bourgeois institutions? especially when it seems this "modocracy" would rather spend its days voting on meaningless and trivial virtue signaling glittering generality shitheap rules instead of ACTUALLY MODDING THE FUCKING FORUM. its simple, less rules = easier enforcement. so please stop making up new ordinances and just look at the fucking posts on YOUR SITE so you can REMOVE THEM if they break any EXISTING RULES instead of ENDLESSLY making up new rules that solve NON-EXISTENT PROBLEMS.

>>39361
Damn you sound new

The problem has always been inconsistent moderation. For example, you'll see people write huge polemics against less popular strands of Marxist or Anarchist thought and be fine but then lightly rib someone as a liberal and it's an 8-week ban.

There's a rogue janny that has this ideological hard-on for liberal terrorism so if you criticize adventurist events you get a long-to-permaban. This is always linked to identity politics such as "Muslim adventurism good, white adventurism bad (unless it's Luigi and that CEO that got replaced in two days)." This is connected to my next point.

Criticizing ethnostates isn't "Zionism" and any of the moderators that are confused about that need to differ judgement to someone that has actually read books. What they're doing is enforcing campism with a healthy serving of identity politics with it and we've already had threads where posters can debate campism, so just outright banning any dissent is another example of inconsistency.

I've also long since noticed that if you're a flag poster, you can just break every rule. I think we all know who and there was one event where they finally got a ban for advocating for the extermination of all remaining indigenous people and the mod got bullied into unbanning him because he was a "board character." Favoritism on an anonymous imageboard is poor practice.

Ordinance 1 needs to be an auto-temp ban so everyone can know it's not allowed because I'm seeing greater than 10 mentions of it on /isg/ because it was allowed there for so long, including a board banner referencing him. It gets completely ignored unless you report it, making it cumbersome and irregular to enforce. This also links to inconsistent moderation because people get banned for just uttering the word but then some guy made an entire thread about it and it just gets saged and he's not punished in any way.

It would cut down on ban evasion if people stopped getting banned for inconsistent and poorly thought-out reasons.

According to Danny Shaw it's Ali Hammoud not Adam Tahir as written in the OP.

>>39194
>you can only choose one option
way to make the poll useless i guess

>>2111905
Can we ban racist shit like this, please? Or are we just going to let these 4chan invaders corrupt the place?

>Incel posts are banned site wide (i.e. incel talking points and making 9999 threads complaining about women, saying all women are bourgeoise/sluts/etc.) - per modocracy vote passed on 2025-01-02
Bruh moment. You're going to kill si/b/eria. We need to be patient with the r9k rapefugees. Prolepilling them on economics is good enough no need to want to convert them wholesale to feminism.

>>39367
uygha there's no reasoning with these types. The sex and relationship thread is a dumpster fire the mods have given up on

>>39368
We drive them out and they'll have no place to go but retarded alternatives like /pol/. Do you want incels to be communists or fascist?
<I would prefer they stop existing
Yeah well tough luck the very idea of an incel "ideology" is a byproduct of extreme alienation due to late stage capitalism; you should expect to see more incels and not less as capitalism continues degrading.

The holier than thou mentality needs to stop it's bleeding us of potential sympathizers.

>>39369
Nobodies lamenting the loss of incel freak sympathisers. They're actively off putting to everyone and are dyed in the wool reactionaries. Fuck off with this disingenuous or extremely childish shit.

>>39367
I wish they specified more what is considered incel posts, in past I got my posts on /siberia/ deleted for inceloposting even though there was no misogyny.

>>39202
>let the TERFs off their leash and they'd drive them all off leftypol in 2 days
When the moderation got less strict a year ago and actually let you use racism and misoginy to take down bigots it let to the terfposter leaving from the bullying caused by the queeranons, not the opposite, you weak simp.

Queers make themselves weak and brittle on purpose by adopting that safe slave persona due to the current globo-liberalism social contract demanding it from them. When they don't do this christian bullshit you ends up with queer nazi eugenicist like Peter Thiel and Martine Rothblatt that manage to rape one billion proleslave radfem just by existing, be serious.


>>39372
>bullying caused by the queeranons
>Source: I made up

There aren't many queers here, most are cishet males

>>39374
I didnt say it was a bad thing anyway. Also i know there arent a lot of actual queer here but i include the pro faction among them for the sake of making shorter nuance-free posts.

>being a flag poster or tripfag doesn't let you break rules whenever you want!!!
>isg right now
Yes, they were reported. Either enforce it or remove the ordinance.

>>39378
i thought isg was the exception to the rule, besides, the rules don't exist to actually be enforce but just to signal the mods virtues while they circle jerk in their matrix chat.

>>39379
isg *used* to be the containment board that garbage but the new ordinances banned all mentions of him everywhere. I got warned for posting a response to someone else talking about him in isg, yet now, I look on there and ordinance 1 content is flooding the general and anyone with a flag or trip just gets a free pass.

So either it's still the containment board and everyone that's been banned/warned about ordinance 1 has been unjustly punished, or they're not enforcing it. If they don't want to enforce it, remove the rule. Rules should be consistent.

So apparently ordinance 1 has been temporarily "lifted" (no visible proclamation of this anywhere I'm just going off some anon) for some "drama." What happened is
>ordinance 1 until we want to gossip about him and only for a length of time that we will decide to enforce the rule again, once again at random
Hilarious

>>39376
Still waiting.
Can you fags stop bickering, Matrix'ing and do your job plz.

>>39360
>>39359
now?

>>39382
anon, there's been a degeneralization policy for months now. its not an accident from the server transfer

>>39376
Hello, unfortunately the moderation team is moving away from cycling for the near future.

>>39382
You got 'em there buddy

Unban node

>>39386
how is the node banned if you're posting from it?
