Once again, our completely useless mod has had his fill of banning the good faith regulars before fucking off for a week so that pedo pajeets can shit all over our threads like a public street.
Dom, you obviously don't want to be here any more than we want you here, so let's just finally get someone who actually cares put in charge. Pin a thread where the users can vote for your replacement, and hand over to the winner when you do your next weekly check-in. This is getting ridiculous.
And as always, go fuck yourself.
Yeah I don't particularly care for the mod here (when did ant stop being the mod?) Or the spam lately, but this is exactly the stunt some fedposting wehraboo tried to pull on c/gaming a while back - rile up the community after the old mod sperged out and then try to insert himself as mod with a bunch of brigading conpro goons voting for him. Then hundreds of whine posts "the community voted for me I demand you give me the board" until he finally fucked off because the admin (who took over after the mod spergout) wasn't falling for it.
I don't think Antonio was ever a mod over here, just on Reddit KIA2. And since he was banned on Reddit a while ago its probably just Dom there too, unless Clockwork is actively helping more than he is here.
This place was founded on anti-mod hate, and I was a spearheader for that, but its concerning that basically every single mod hater right now is just "remove rule 16, don't ban people I like" without addressing the main elephant. This thread is the only one that seemed to be focused on that (ironic given the guy posting).
We just need an admin to step in and range-ban the spammer.
But yeah, like anywhere, the people most hungry for power want that power for their own gain, not the good of the community.
I've been around since the original imageboard days. Those places were a lot harder to subvert, but they're basically all dead now - 8chan collapsed at some point years back and none of the other alternatives ever took off, while 4chan is controlled now.
I was a /b/tard myself before I came to KIA1. It was subverted with almost the same method as they are doing here.
Spam porn, absurd topics people feel compelled to respond to, and eventually the place is nothing but those handful of things.
lol. When I first got angry about the way he bans people for rule 16, it wasn't just because they didn't deserve it, but because he was always doing it a week or so after the offending post was made and the thread had been buried. I thought he was just doing it to avoid scrutiny.
Then the pedos started shitting up the place and it became clear that his biggest problem is that he doesn't give enough of a fuck to bother staying on top of his duties as a mod.
Fair points. I find it funny that of all the times I've been banned he responds to my appeal well after the ban itself has expired.
