Moderation would require Dom get off his ass and check the forum more often than once a month. So obviously the only option left is to let this place wither and die by instablocking all new users. Any resistance to the left that requires any effort would just be asking too much.
They have been from the moment cellphones were available. Kids are stupid and easily manipulated even by their own peers.
One of the hardest parts of society is balancing protecting kids while also realizing that a bunch of teens in puberty will take the worst possible choices with whatever means they can, and nothing short of locking them in a box can stop it.

There is no conflict there, lock them up and marry them off.
That's how it is, now, and it's not good. Stupid kids need to just deal with the social consequences, and learn. No state threat should bw there, against the victims. Others spreading them around is a gray area, as it's clearly not close to anything like murder. Permanently ruining their lives is a bit much. Meanwhile, that kind of, "kill the messenger," stuff only makes it harder to get to the source, when it's acting out as the result of grooming and/or SA. But, we'd rather it be out of sight and out of mind, not actually preventing any of it.
Fuck off. the "victims" are the producers and they produce content that can turn OTHER PEOPLE INTO CRIMINALS JUST FOR HAVING. They should be strung up as the vile demons they are for the innocent men they put at risk.

You deserve a shallow grave for you defense of underage pedophile. Their crimes put others at risk of being made criminals and as such I would consider it akin to a widespread and untargeted act of terrorism. We already shoot the messenger with laws against possession of child pornography regardless of intent so why not kill the writers of the message as well?
Laws against possession of CP and lack of criminality in relation to minors producing CP is one of the biggest contributors to it's proliferation. If a minor starts making and sharing porn with others then those who are in the position to report such a crime that are the ones who would be treated as a criminal while the little whore producing the porn is treated like a victim despite being the greatest offender.
Of course all the scammers they reference are niggers.
Something I've noticed is the young people have very little intelligence on the internet compared to at least what it seemed like in the early days when I was on there around those ages. It's too normal to just share things freely. Simple things I've heard of sharing passwords and accounts is almost common. Stupid ass Fortnite accounts full of hundreds of dollars of skins, gone, because their dumb ass thought some dude on a Discord app was going to help them. They are just morons and I can't speculate as to why. I specifically remember when my cousin was 13 essentially having to tell him, "you are about to get your credit card stolen, you are a dumbass, stop now or I'm calling your mom to make you stop." I almost never had to go that far. Then you take in the common hoe-ness of young girls. My understanding, they share that shit almost freely by that age, that's not just random online chicks, but those these kids know in person. I don't get the idea that the boys really like to, but the girls manipulate the shit out of them, especially the spineless ones. Add in the scammers and here we are.
Oh and I've gotten scam e-mails demanding money for compromising photos like they mention too. It's just a new Nigerian prince. I know damn well it's fake because such photos do not exist. I'm sure if they had gained access to all of my stuff they'd find some things. They would not find nude photos.
Something I've noticed is the young people have very little intelligence on the internet compared to at least what it seemed like in the early days when I was on there around those ages. It's too normal to just share things freely.
Part of this is that with the advent of social media, and Facebook more specifically, we lost the constant mantra from our elders to never tell anyone your real identity on the internet because there are ne'er do wells out there. Now everyone just posts with their home address and social security number next to their face. It's absolutely unconscionable for anyone who grew up with a dial-up connection.
However I think the notion that there's very little intelligence is real. Gaining access to the internet itself used to be more or less intelligence gated due to the relative complexity of the technology involved. Now any 70 IQ retard and get access via a smartphone they bought at the mall without having to ever see a command line or configuration file. Even the kids on the internet back then were the offspring of comparatively more intelligent people, so the overall intelligence level of those on the internet was higher even among the kids. Now we have the third world alongside all the domestic mouth breathers and everything's gone to shit.
Non-empirical evidence but I've noticed I struggle to find people my age on social media, such as if I try to look up an old schoolmate or something. They just don't exist. We also knew to never put shit out on the internet.
That's a good point on the barrier to entry too. I didn't think of that but it's true. I couldn't imagine explaining to some how to get to a game in my Dosbox without just reading the commands out to them word for word.
I have relatives from East Germany who refuse to get on any social media because it sounds too much like the Stasi. I thought it was stupid at first, and now sort of agree with them.

Eternal September and it's consequences have been horrific for society as a whole.

About 2 weeks ago a work group chat I was in that was set up by our shop steward had an incident like that. A new hire sent his bank account and routing number, in plain text, over text message, to at least 20 people. The shop steward literally had to beg people not to run off with that information and delete it.
I can confidently say that I don't have many moments where my jaw literally dropped open, but that was one of them. It was literally a moment where I thought, "am I the same species as this thing?" to myself.
I was taught not to reveal personal information on the internet at a young age, that it would get stolen by 1337 haxorz and sheeit. Apparently nobody born after 9/11 was taught that.
Less than 12 hours after first being contacted by his sextorter, Carson died by suicide.
The kid was only 12. But that sure escalated quickly according to the linked CBC article. So the kid was contacted by a catfishing Nigerian scammer and sent his own nudes, was blackmailed for 25 loonies in gift cards & an heroed within a 12-hour shift?
During the federal election earlier this year, Prime Minister Mark Carney campaigned on bringing back the Online Harms Act, a bill designed to protect kids from exploitation like sextortion.
In an interview with Marketplace, Justice Minister Sean Fraser says his government will table new legislation specifically addressing online sextortion, non-consensual sharing of deep fake nudes and child luring in the fall.
He says these measures will be in addition to new tools for law enforcement to "prevent this crime on top of the efforts to more severely punish these heinous criminals."
So this agitprop CBC article about dead preteens and Nigerian scammers is really all about "But think of the children!!!!" justification for Carney to re-introduce his UK-style Internet censorship Online Harms Bills for a third time. Essentially cut&paste of Trudeau's old failed versions.
If you just hand over your civil liberties and firewall everything behind a social credit digital ID, the Mounties will bring to justice the Nigerian scammers this time, they swear!
You know that specific panic and despair feeling when you as a kid did something you immediately regretted and knew would have extreme consequences? Like breaking the TV or your buddy's leg, where you actually believed your dad might kill you when he gets home?
I think only a 12 year old could speed run a "gotta kill myself, life is ruined" that fast because of that overwhelming feeling without the experience and maturity to realize they aren't in fact ruined that even a kid a few years older might have.
The only unbelievable part is, as you say further down, them being successful in doing so. Unless they just jumped off a bridge or shot themselves its hard for even grown adults with planning to succeed that easy.
So the kid was contacted by a catfishing Nigerian scammer and sent his own nudes, was blackmailed for 25 loonies in gift cards & an heroed within a 12-hour shift?
like 1/3 or more young people want to kill themselves on a daily basis, they just can't find the courage. pretty much from birth everything and everyone around them contributes to them being complete nervous wrecks on a hair trigger 24/7. this isn't unbelievable.
I guess I'm still amazed at the speedrun efficiency in a single sunrise/sunset cycle.
Also intrigued that a 12 y/o would be so successful killing themselves presumably on their 1st attempt, let alone having the balls to go through with it.
Gerbert did a video about the porn to troon pipeline (I think someone posted that video here not too long ago?).
Any kid with access to the internet has access to porn, and any kid with access to porn will be prone to all of the detriments that come along with it.
Hey man, you probably gave up by now, but if you're still around, we're gonna be approving posts again properly again now, you should be able to get past the filter threshold pretty fast now people are able to actually upvote you.

Moderation would require Dom to delegate mod duties to someone other than himself as a single point of failure.
Kids at 12 are sending nudes? That is sad.
They have been from the moment cellphones were available. Kids are stupid and easily manipulated even by their own peers.
One of the hardest parts of society is balancing protecting kids while also realizing that a bunch of teens in puberty will take the worst possible choices with whatever means they can, and nothing short of locking them in a box can stop it.
There is no conflict there, lock them up and marry them off.
That's been a problem since I was in middle school 20 years ago. That was around the time kids started getting camera equipped flip phones.
Yeah some kids at my middle school circled nudes around, and smartphones were only just coming out
Not surprising. They should be charged for distribution of child pornography.
That's how it is, now, and it's not good. Stupid kids need to just deal with the social consequences, and learn. No state threat should bw there, against the victims. Others spreading them around is a gray area, as it's clearly not close to anything like murder. Permanently ruining their lives is a bit much.

I'm flabbergasted by the sexual activity at 12. But hearing that timeline, it does seem to escalate quickly
Gerbert did a video about the porn to troon pipeline (I think someone posted that video here not too long ago?).
Any kid with access to the internet has access to porn, and any kid with access to porn will be prone to all of the detriments that come along with it.
Can you share the vid?
Yeah, here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1Z-AuoCqnQ&t=2s
Thanks.
What happened to “don’t send pictures of yourself online”? Nevermind sending sexually explicit images.
Also, we can’t have new accounts because Dom would have to do his job more than once every blue moon or get more mods.
How come facebook can’t block nigerians who spam 9,000 children pretending to be a hot guy or hot girl until they find a sucker?
The troons find it highly inconvenient.
Different era. I miss the era of the internet where anonymity was actively encouraged and only idiots shared identifying images.
Can we just ban Africa and India already?
Well well well.
Liala's an anti porn,pro censorship skank.
How is it shut off to new users?
Check the logs for many of the posts that get removed now
https://kotakuinaction2.win/logs
A lot of those are new accounts trying to join in threads but because they are brand new everything they post here gets immediately nuked.
every comment and post will be immediately removed by filters
Testing to see if it does it to me here (it's done it on other posts recently)
Yup, it did it, lol, it's visible on the logs. Despite the fact I've posted here before before the filter was set to strict!
Hey man, you probably gave up by now, but if you're still around, we're gonna be approving posts again properly again now, you should be able to get past the filter threshold pretty fast now people are able to actually upvote you.
I kept lurking silently! Great news to see, thanks for the update.
They've honeypotted all the users they can handle
Site does kinda seem like that, but nowhere else really to go
