About nine months ago this lifeboat came into existence following massive purges by Reddit admins against non-establishment conforming materials. Those purges never ended, which is why this particular forum has become the overall bastion for KIA2/GG materials.
On the creation of this site we were presented a set of 16 rules which we, the users, were questioned about. Overwhelming we found that the rules were overbearing and redundant.
Many of these rules are redundant, unnecessary, or bad.
The most obvious of which is that there are THREE rules covering NSFW/pornographic material. It was pointed out by myself as well as numerous other users that these were redundant and pointless, and the assumption was that these would be changed as the rules were simply temporary.
It's nine months on.
Those are only the most egregiously obvious.
The reason I make this post today is that our rules are so open-ended and confusing that even our illustrious mods have no idea WTF they mean.
I was personally banned for a day for a rule 15 violation after which u/DomitiusOfMassilia/ admitted he misunderstood what the rule meant. Immediately after I watched him make the same mistake with another. Now, a week after, I notice that the majority of action is taken under rules 2, 15, and 16. Almost all content removals are based on slurs/bad language/insults.
This post is largely upvoted while Dom's statement of removal is largely downvoted. That's just one example. This is becoming far too common. Please do not make the same mistakes that murdered KIA1.
Note that I am not calling out Dom specifically. I think the rules themselves are dogshit tier and must be fixed. I like this community, even if I do think you're a bunch of faggots. And goddamnit u/TheImpossible1 there's no women involved here so kindly fuck off.
Can we please have a serious discussion about our rules and the impacts that they have, and FIX THEM? We do not need SIXTEEN RULES, especially when it's clear not even our mods understand them all.
I recognize niggerfaggot as just something that I saw on 4chan for years. Eventually something reaches the point of simply being jargon or parlance from another website where it was allowed to grow, and it becomes normal to use, like Oldfag and Newfag.
I also recognize Niggerfaggot as the name a NSFW MLP artist used for a while (don't know if they're still around). The fireworks over that name was hilarious to watch every time it came up.
Hm, I did notice it getting used on multiple chans, but I just assumed it started with voat since they used it so much more frequently.
Now that's some deep lore, haha.
And half the joke is that its so over the top edgy it ceases to be useful as a slur any longer.
There is a reason nobody there gets upset at the x-fag label. Only at whatever the X part is, because newfags are cancer.
