Just noticed that posts are getting locked (some are getting purged, though that might be warranted) and users are getting banned more often.

What’s up with that? Did the rules change? Are they just being more enforced now? Also, wish we could see who does what in the modlog.

    Any subversive posts suggesting site shut-down will be removed and possibly a ban. There is no need for these posts since this situation has already been explained, thus all posts about this will be considered a subversion attempt.

    Post purges are due to a spammer signing up and continually suggesting we censor speech, doing this will result in an instant ban and post removal.

      Yeah, I also thought those posts are not needed, as you already explained the situation, found it a bit strange. Thanks for the response and for “holding it down” like the cookie cutters say

      I am all for authoritarian measures when it comes to defending a good thing, free speech does not mean a bunch of morons get to spam the board with garbage.

          If people can’t take posts of historical figures then they can get out

          I look so good in my black suit talking to the people like a boss, with the flag behind me. Very proud of this picture and glad the artist saved this great moment in my life!

    The mods are just sick of Brad Pickles shit and banning his accounts. The locked threads seem to be locked because they are from trolls or users trying to create panic saying we are going to get shut down.

      The fear mongering I can agree with, though locking shit down will be a lil Streisand effectening.

      Yeah I wasn’t talking about Pickles, it seems like other users that aren’t him (well, I think they aren’t) are getting banned as well.

    What seems to be a new thing is someone making posts suggesting censorship or trying to lure people onto other platforms. I would remove that garbage too

      Hmmm I see. But honestly, banning people because they’re suggesting censorship seems hypocritical to me. Either way, it’s not that big of a deal.

        They are doing it to cause trouble, they don’t care about free speech or censorship. They just want to make people mad, so that’s why they get banned. These are not reasonable people making serious posts. It’s all just to try and make other members mad.

          and you guys are taking the bait and getting mad. quite funny actually. who cares if there are people trying “to make people mad.” Makes you guys look soft and weak in my opinion.

            I couldn’t care less, I just ignore the posts, but I guess some people get mad, I have no idea. You treat people like this like children and ignore them, it’s so easy. It matters because the moderator pays 100% of the cost of having this site running. So if he actually has to deal with bullshit all day long, he could end up feeling like Prince Andrew, that we are more trouble than fun. And shut the site down. And we don’t want that do we? It makes you sound stupid if you can’t see the bigger picture here. But if it makes you feel cool thinking we are soft and weak, go for it tough guy.

        The ones making such threads about censoring the board are usually trolls being trouble makers, get wat get unfortunately.

    We have been flooded with a few people that create account after account just to post fake stories and stuff to try and stirr up trouble and make people mad. Probably the same losers that call peoples work place and so on. Good thing they get banned. They should be hardware and IP banned if they continue with the same shit on too many accounts, and don’t stop after getting warnings. Or else this forum will just be full of trash topics and nothing fun to talk about.

      We had the same shit stirrers back in ruqqus and reddick, it infiltratening. Would IP banning be effective even if they use a VPN or some other analogous method?

        Yes we had, and thats the reason we lost the ruqqus sub. Even tho we had the biggest sub on the entire fucking site. I am not sure if they use VPN, but if you do it the right way you ban their browsers, and hardware, so they would have to get a new pc or phone to be able to make a new account. Streamable has done it to me because I have posted the video of Chef Crackhead so many times huehue. And VPN does not work for me.

          The whole Ruqqus website was destroyed by the owners because they didn’t like the heat they were getting from SJW’s from not just us but all the other dissident subs on there and basically said Ruqqus was a class project or some gay shit to disavow everything they had made.

            Yeah they made a great fairly tale about what really happened. But the story they told was not what happened. We were not the main reason of course, but it started to get flooded with “dangerous” “right wing” extremists so they lost all their sponsors, even tho they claimed they were finanaced by their own. They were sued from so many angles they pussied out and suddenly their passion project to create a “Reddit for free thinkers” changed to a “class project” or “something a few friends did for fun”. It was all a lie unfortunately fanbuddy. They got sued into oblivion, and the server providers refused to host their site with “all us evil” people on there. So they got paid out to get rid of us the vermin that is freethinkers like us. But the story they told sure sounded like a innocent and non serious way of shutting down the site. But they wanted to become bigger than Reddick. So the posts they made before closing down were all fairy tales. Pathetic losers. I even said I would pay for all their expenses if they showed me the lawsuits. But they ignored me. So they must have gotten a big pay check to refuse my offer.

    All I’m going to say is, say what you actually believe. It’s pretty fucking pointless posting stuff just to be edgy and risk getting this place shut down

          Because porn is degenerate and a weapon used against the White man by our enemies.

          As for the moderation, we cannot have total freedom on here or the place will descend into absolute anarchy, do you want the front page to be nothing but pisstripp talking about his fake crypto and videos of SmokingEsse every time you load the site? How many great posters have already been driven away by the trolls running free here? Too many is the answer.

          Just like with all things that are free, there will always be those who will abuse such things, it is time for a no nonsense approach on the board when it comes to some of the disruptors here.
