There isn't too much to it. The mods on half-KIA are extremely smug, disrespectful pieces of trash. They have the exact same kind of attitude that mods of shitty SJW subs have - dismissive and sneering if you speak up against them. I don't think they're particularly left-wing, and it ultimately doesn't matter - what matters is that they're jannies who don't know their place. The last straw was when they put out a vote on an extremely controversial rule that basically nobody liked, and almost everyone voted against that rule. What did they do? They just kept the fucking rule anyway and completely ignored the vote. That's when KIA2 was made by our new chad mods who actually have a spine, a thicker skin, and are exemplary users and mods. And now we're far more active than half-KIA.
They inherited a movement they didn't build and then burned it to the ground and sat on the ashes. Instead of risking the sub in order to fight the culture war they take 'being allowed to exist and repost news with no commentary' as a victory. And they sit on their throne of ashes and wonder why the peasants are leaving.
is the other kia.win run by the same people as r/kia?
Same shit different URL.
It will be interesting to see what changes now that "reddit will ban us" is not a justification for rules anymore.
I think so, yeah. Bane is there at least.
They kept Shadist, so there's no point in posting there.
Shadist is no worse than the rest of them. I thought people would learn from the fact that nothing improved when their bete noir nutcase left.
None of the other moderators there seem to be willing to spend literal days of their time trying to bait somebody into an excuse to say dickwolf.
k
Nah, I don't think so, they just act like it. Just authoritarian as fuck and completely incompetent.
Tell me more please? I'm not from around these parts and I don't know the lore yet

There were a couple of "progressives" in their ranks definitely. But the main thing was that they behaved like cunts.
I kind of like the infighting. It shows how different each group is. And I am a sucker for drama.
I know for a fact one of them isn't, and I've had a couple of trips to the shooting range with him.
He also has a life outside the internet and doesn't have a lot of time to babysit the rest, though.
Yes.
