All the single issue (and anti-Dom) spammy accounts, all the butthurt liberal Reddit refugees, all the bad faith trolling…
Come on, we wanted to be better than Reddit, didn’t we..?? Not worse.
Some of you get weirdly triggered over the stupidest shit, too…
I’m not sure how, but “we” seem to have, for want of a better word, “degenerated” somewhat, as a place of civil discussion (again), of late, unfortunately…
I find it all very amusing. The normal topics still have civil discussion, except that one guy saying "yeah this is fine but I can't say the fbi are redcoats?!" on random unrelated posts. On the other hand jannies are trannies so IDGAF.
Same. A board needs some lore, too.
I think we are just small enough that we don't have many outsiders. There is haterjuice around but that's just a trollfag, a nihilist.
I don't use the .win "network" ? I'm not sure if there is a front page or popular landing. Maybe we attract some tourists; from what Imp has said some people follow him from another .win place.
Either way Fuck rule 1: I have Christchurch full vid, manifesto, New York Idiot "manifesto" Also https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/15IqxTJgmL/x/c/4Ob7OTMNfGa
Some do, but I always have one (and it is generally only one) butthurt person in comments “defending the integrity” of whoever it is I’m posting about…
Tis a bit odd. Maybe they target me/follow me around specifically..?
It’s not the one person (well, account), either, and it happens pretty much regardless of the topic, lol…
But their talking points are always weirdly incongruous with what most people here would say, so it’s just… Kind of strange, lol. Like they’ve deliberately come here to try and… “Break the circlejerk” or some bullshit…
The anti-Dom accounts wouldn't be a thing if he wasn't going full tranny janny. The user isn't handling this well but with the way Dom is modding it was only a matter of time before he censored someone who would react like this. I'm just enjoying the shit show and throwing some turds in myself. The censorship is a real problem even if its latest target isn't covering himself in glory.
I mean, Ahaus667 is in the right, but he's using the only tool he has: posting. He doesn't have to power to ban people, he can't make people follow him to a new community. The only thing he can do is show everyone that DoM needs to leave.
Yeah, true enough. I just don't think this level of obsession is healthy for him, even if he's doing the community a service by calling out Dom. It can also be counterproductive if he's pissing off people who sympathize with him.
Unfortunately, acting like a sperg and attacking everybody who doesn't agree with him 200% with the same vitriol does nothing but make Dom look better.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit
amphetaminesReddit (not possible, every week is a good week to quit pReddit) and sign up here.It happens to any place that gets a certain amount of traction. I'll once again shill some sites like freespeechextremist and poast which are basically twitter clones that connect up with one another. There are many others but those two are some big ones, you could set up your own instance too if you're so inclined.
This place is still pretty great for news style posts, but for general discussion I would suggest checking out places like that.
there is zero (0) justification for the rule list as it exists.
We Were Never Asked.
Lol should have created the site if you wanted an input on that
Remind me to camp domain names next time there's an exodus, everywhere it might possibly catch on, because that's a healthy fucking way of determining anything.
There seems to be a wave of anti-ban spam whenever someone other than Imp gets banned. They never can contain it in a single post and discuss it like an adult, so it's take on more of the form of a whiny little kid spamming. It will go away for a while after they get bored.
Grabs 🍿
It has begun (again), lol…
You're not Imp. You're AzureNutsBustedAceXXX. Even Imp has never been so obsessed with DoM like this.
I don't think he's Azure either. Unlike with Imp the similarities go beyond Dom censoring both in a short period of time, but Azure's style was different. He would always get rule 16ed over his 1488 posting and while his ban evasion accounts called out the moderation he did post other stuff. Ahaus667 is almost solely calling out Dom with his accounts, and he initially got banned for calling out Dom over his retarded interpretation of rule 2. So the pattern is different as well.
Sure sounds like that guy, and has the same breakdowns.
The difference was, however, that Azure used his ban evasion to actually post useful stuff, while this guy just spams for the sake of spam.
I don't give a crap what your schemes are. Do you actually expect things to change around here by doing what you're doing? Again, you're OBSESSED. No one is looking at you positively for what you're doing right now. No one. Even those that might agree with you on the things you're at odds with him about. If you hate him this much, you really ought to just stop coming here, because again, that's something that won't be changing any time soon.
Harsh but true.
u/DoMLovesCaulk You're really not helping the cause by acting like this, and I say this as someone who's more sympathetic about your situation than pretty much anyone else here and who has largely gotten a kick out of the resulting shit show. I get it. Dom caused this by being a censorious faggot then going full tranny janny when he got called out on it. A lot of people agree with you on that. But you're pissing off those people off by spamming the site with the drama. Take a chill pill and go do something offline. This isn't healthy for you.
Make your fucking KiA3 then.
Yeah give me Kia3 so I can get rid off these reddit trannies.
The one that posts a dozen topics publicly for the sole purpose of badmouthing a mod he's having a personal disagreement with, instead of making his own community. With blackjack and hookers.
This is the strangest thing I've ever heard.
That's the strangest thing? Not his accusation that Imp is scheming to steal his internet janny position? That one made me question his sanity. It's nuttier than squirrel shit.
That's just a thought I had. If I was sure, I would treat you like you were imp. But instead I'm still treating you as a separate person. Also, it's entirely possible that Impy is just off in his other subs having a good time like an almost healthy person.
I never said you were a fed. I just described how subversion and infiltration works to other people. Now, stop annoying others with these alt accounts.
I don't even know what Caulk is...
The goopy sealant stuff that dries into solid rubber.
OOOOhhh. Caulk!
I mean, I don't love it, but it is useful.
Amusingly, I only know what that word means because I’ve spent time around old wooden boats, lol…
Always nice to see vintage nautical terms make a comeback, even as homophone-based terms of abuse!
That kid from Home Alone?
For the record my "Tiananmen Square Massacre never happened" posts are sincere and not trolls. Shit's fucked.

Attempting to have an adult discussion with someone who either can't or won't respond to the substance of an opinion happens once in a while.
An impasse, conflict of opinion, or misreading reverts to name calling . . . maybe it's teenagers having a bit of fun.
I'm more worried about the pedophiles that get so much support
Oh, your that concern troll that shows up every election cycle. I thought you left because this place was too radicalized.

What happened faggot? Why are you still here? Leave already.
Leave faggot.
You’re so abusive, to like, everyone…
Take a chill pill, dude. This ain’t your safe space. You don’t get to tell others what to do.
But why then are you here?
(And I hate the Stormfags as much as you do.)
It was a bit more obvious before he cleaned up that account's history, but do you really not know what that account is for?
I only know he supported Ukraine, which I think is very wrong, but it's a perfectly respectable position.
Also constantly attacking "white women". Another perfectly respectable position but he has an obvious pattern.
A version of Imp that supports Ukraine?
That is Jester's alt that he uses to peddle self-hatred to right-wing white people.
He doesn't sound like Jester to me.
I actually like this idea.
Theoretically there’s a “Do not post more than twice a day” rule in the sidebar, which I personally do follow, but it clearly doesn’t work if people keep making new (single issue) accounts all the time…
I think rate-limiting new accounts, very much like Reddit, might actually work to solve this problem…
Much though I hate censorship as much as the next guy, I do… Kind of think that it would… Work, in this case?
Thoughts, u/DomitiusofMassilia..?
We can’t really control the creation of new accounts (I imagine), so rate-limiting handshakes might be the only option to clear this situation up somewhat…
But this would presumably have to be a site-wide change, so eh, up to u/C, I guess…
Grabs 🍿 for more incoming abuse
That would be neat, but there's no way to do this on Win.
In reality, it was Poal that offered this exact feature, and was one of the reasons I was so interested in it.
Each user, site wide, is given classification levels. New accounts on the site are forbidden from posting new threads site wide, you have to have commented several times, something like a dozen times and earned x number of points to comment.
Every comment and every post gain you points. The more time you actions you participate on Poal generally, the more points you recieve, and the higher your tier becomes. If you run a forum, you can customize rules so that, for example: Tier 3 users can post pictures, or Tier 2 users can't make posts, things like that. In fact, all the tiers have different posting time limits.
Poal was set up by refugees from Voat who saw the site go to hell from shills, trolls, and flamers. That being the case, the place is very intelligently designed, but it's just not super user friendly. It's like a suped up version of much older forums, that still work off of a Reddit like structure. It's almost like early Reddit.
Saidit was much more easy to customize. Poal admins are very much free speech absolutists, but Saidit wanted to focus on better discussions to weed out trolls, shitposters, and flamers. I respect both systems, to be honest, but I really like Poal's tier system. It's the primary attractor to the site. I think it's the best way for anyone to guarantee authenticity among users.
The biggest problem with Poal was that we would probably be the most moderate voice on it, considering it's refugees from Voat. The level of antisemitism on the site is pretty ridiculous. It's first used as a measure of gatekeeping out normies, like 4chan, where the welcome page has everyone yell at you that the jews did 9/11, and then immediately move on to a different topic.
The best example of how ridiculous it was: the pass-phrase after you sign in to prove your not a robot pulls random words from some chat feature they have. Every single time I signed in I had to type in a random assortment of what we would call "pol memes": "dindu", "gorrilion", "oy vey", "troons", "pattern", shit like that. Literally every time. I thought it was on purpose until I contacted the admins and asked if it was, and one of them responded with something like, "oh crap, no. We tried to filter those out."
Like I said, Poal was over the top, but their system for identifying high-producing users, and authentic content was absolutely stellar. They certainly seem like they are good people trying to make a good system work, but there's just not enough content, and the stuff that is tends towards repulsive to the general population.
