There's current 5 obvious spam posts with phishing links sitting in New. 3 of them 20 hours old. All have been reported for spam and yet they're still up.
But this post, https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/12hReTPB3B , which had some unsavory comments was gone within a few hours of it being posted. Truly curious
I'd think it would be safer, and possibly even easier, to make a whitelist of approved sites. It would prevent them from trying to make new links to circumvent any bans.
Unfortunately, like you asked, I don't even know if that's something they can do.
Apparently, there is no Automoderator, which is part of what creates the problem.
At least one of those spam threads' posters is making similar spam comments over on wallstreetbets. If you look at the names of the accounts along with the things posted, it isn't hard to understand who/why. I think if one were to browse other .win sites, they'd find the same users posting the same things on each.
Wakey wakey jannies!
I'd ask the guy who started that thread if he deleted it himself. Our mods aren't usually such faggots that they delete threads with discussions.
I'll assume this until I hear otherwise, but I'd certainly like to hear from the mods on the issue. It's important to know what's being removed, considering we're all into free speech.
I'd imagine that, if this had been a mod action, they at least would have said as much in a comment there, though.
Was my assumption as well. Perhaps we should get a mod log up and running here? I have no clue how to request upgrades here.
This place is so primitive that I doubt that very much.
I can't complain much when I refuse to learn modern webcode, but it's not great to hear this. Are thedonald admins who to petition here? Are we being trapped in the tiny box of their design?
I think so. And the thing that actually concerns me most is security.
Yeah that's a possibility too. I was just already on bitching mode and I wanted to throw whatever else I could at the wall
Okay, okay, sorry.
Ayyyyy got their attention. Thanks Dom, you're one of the good faggots
You can also just pm me too.
He most certainly is not, I would never have appointed him if he were.
Good mod.
A certain percentage of the mod base is jewish so they have a certain sensitivity to that topic.
Mods didn't close that thread though or you couldn't open it.
As an aside, I asked for moderatorship a long time ago just to deal with spam. For reference I'm a lazy fucker who cba to do any work so I'm perfect for the position. I don't think they're interested in more worthless jannies atm though.
Well, 0% is also a 'certain' percentage. I'm sure that is not what you meant with your Stormfaggery though.
We certainly don't need people who go around screaming about how the Joooooz are the root of all evil.
Stormfront is a fed run operation.
Their views are not mine, and mine are not theirs.
We both know I'm not wrong with my first statement, though. I said it that way to be tactful and not directly attack any individual person.
I take offense to that statement.
Jews aren't the root of all evil.
Satan is.
Talmudic Jewish sects are glorified satanic cults that broke away from God's law and instead devote themselves to undermining it at every turn. That's literally the job of modern Talmudic Rabbis. To find loopholes in religious prescription.
Those jews who are not talmudic but instead of the torah I do not really have an issue with. I think they're wrong, but their worship isn't inherently evil.
For the average jew this is of little importance. Most are glorified atheists, which is its own problem. However, the jewish community is itself incredibly insular, nepotistic, and neurotic. It will advance itself while stymieing all others. This is most prevalent and obvious at the elite level where jewish media will freely run cover for other rich and powerful jews as a matter of course.
You're free to disagree with my religious beliefs.
My beliefs on the upper levels of jewish communities are, however, pretty clear to see if you're actually looking.
What that has to do with being a janitor, though, I'll never know ??♂️
Don't pussy out, tell me about it. You have that ability here on the Win. No one's gonna ban you. Who are the Joooooz among the moderators? Note that I know exactly where the mods are from and what their ethnicity is.
I keep forgetting that you are not a Stormfag, but a very old-fashioned Christian, or at least posing as one. And not to say that you are dishonest, but they are so rare these days that when I do encounter one, I have difficulty believing he's real.
Part of it surely is, like mutilating baby boys. Yet I prefer the religious Jews, who do their measure of good and evil to their own community, to the Social Justice Warriors wearing the skin of Judaism, who try to impose their evil on the rest of us.
Depends on the political views of those 'rich and powerful' Jews. They'll run cover for George Soros but not Sheldon Adelson. Any idea why?
Didn't you make the claim?
Nah. I'm not here to levy personal attacks on other users/moderators, nor to dox them.
I did actually get banned from TD recently on this account, btw. They called me a stormfag as well for calling out the faggots and jews promoting leftist policies at CPAC.
Thought it was hilarious that two separate people insulted me so.
They're really rare because it's not something you get to through the normal church in the west. Eastern Orthodox comes close but you very rarely interact with them outside of the Russian aligned sites.
I was raised Catholic, became atheistic for a time as I read further and further into religious doctrine, theory, and history, and now I'd say I'm some form of reformist Christian.
As to that first part, it's not unique to Judaism. Circumcision is commonly practiced in both Christian and Islamic areas, and its a problem.
Issue there is that it's biblically prescribed, which is one of the many issues I have with the modern and general Christian sects.
As for the religious jews, like I said I take issue with those who subscribe to the ideological deception present so heavily in modern Judaism. There are those that are just, but the vast majority of those in power are hypocrites and scoundrels.
I disagree. It's just a different form of cover. George Soros will have their tacit support, while Sheldon Adelson will be largely ignored. There's the occasional story published in a specific way so as to gain little to no traction and be easily forgotten. Controlled opposition, if you will.
I made the claim that I'm a lazy bastard who cba to abuse our even use my power half the time and so make a perfect fit for a worthless internet janny position.
It has nothing to do with political or personal beliefs. Or at least it shouldn't. I guess the "hands off approach" is now considered far-right ideology in this modern climate.
Personally, I think your discussional value should disqualify you from the jannie position, even if I don't see you post much. We need good posters posting, and janny duties could compromise it on multiple levels.
I should have checked the modqueue. It'll be cleared momentarily. Instead, I cleared what I saw.
I've been informed OP deleted it himself. Just wanted to throw more complaints out into the ether
...
Well he just got nuked entirely from the sub because he hadn't.
I'll keep my eyes out for a ban appeal.
That's what i get for believing Tony I guess. Forgot he's not a mod here
He may have said that to Tony, I just didn't see it. He may have deleted it elsewhere or something. He just had a shitload of spamming the same message in many threads.
Well now I'm confused. CptLightning's OP here pointed out two seperate issues. I thought you were addressing the second issue (having to do with the week old thread), but now you mention spamming and I have to ask.
I asked him, because I was confused as well. It was the spammer who was banned, not the OP of that other thread.
Okay, cool, good to hear.
AoV is correct.
Thanks for confirming.
Rules of the internet forum:
https://i.imgur.com/poCtNRk.gif
It looks like an imgur link, but it isn't. Since it is educational and not malicious, it is merely a link to a youtube instead, but it could be anything.
Never click on a link shortener. This isn't Twitter, there's no need for a link shortener. And even Twitter now I believe doesn't include links in their character count limit, so there is NO need to ever need one that hides the destination.
Always run a no-script or equivalent program. It won't stop intelligently designed virii, but it will stop many malicious scripts. An ad-blocker is NOT a no-script. Yes, whitelisting everything initially is a pain with a no-script, I don't care.
The one where the user indicated that he had deleted it? https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/12hReTPB3B/x/c/4Dx5u6aVoIC?d=50
You truly are brain-dead.
They still keep the sub open on reddit. What do you expect?
Once said by an certain old man.
Did he have a certain affinity for rotary wing aircraft?
