What do you mean? This shill was being tolerated and even agreed with by the admins. He only deleted his account after it was pointed out with enough evidence to be undeniable.
And re:karma I agree as well, it was way worse on reddit but you see the same retarded shit here. People making comments to appeal to upvotes instead of to progress a conversation.
I think this place might benefit from a “sort by recent comment” option, so as long as the discussion continues the post remains relavent, instead of this gay ass “survival of the begging-for-upvotes-of-the-fittest” which just results in garbage, unsubstantial social media links
Yeah, no doubt and thanks, I actually mean a sorting option for the front page though. So your front page would ignore upvotes in terms of post ranking, and order them based on which had the most recent comment.
He was (in that thread and a few others) pushing to keep various communities off the front page, such as conspiracies, kotakuinaction, consumeproduct, etc.
The admins state that regardless of power user opinions they’ve “always” intended to hide “politics” from the front page (including conspiracies apparently), I just find it weird that the “users” most supportive of this move, were all shills and the alts of shills, and most of the real users seem to oppose it.
Gotta get those normie clicks I guess, and we can’t have anti vax cOnSpIrAcY tHeORiEs scaring them off can we.
Well, good point. I commented in that thread as well.
Look, I love politics and I can read about it all day. But does it have to be that way for everyone? This site exists NOT to provision politics but to escape censorship. If they want to focus /all in whatever way, why not?
No one is being censored. Those that want to will allways have a place and that is all anyone really asked for.
It's not like we don't have true free speech here. No porn, pedo and other degenrate bullshit is welcome here unlike Reddit, Twitter, Facebook and all that.
If anything, this site is really how normal people operate. And normies don't hyper focus on politics all day long.
My point all along has been that conspiracies (at a minimum, I haven’t spent much time on KiA or Consoom) isnt purely political, and using “politics” as an excuse to hide vaccine hesitancy and the other {woke} topics here from the front page is gayer than aids and an obvious attempt at normie-izing this place.
Are you sure you understood what was happening in that other thread? Almost all your downvotes came from one user, the OP (and his dozen accounts). He is one of the only people asking to hide this community, and he had made more than a few posts/attempts to achieve that goal, the linked thread being the most recent.
These power user faggots (they eventually transition to power mods) were the bane of reddit, making each community they ruled more insular and inbred until eventually they get hired as a site admin.
Just trying to avoid that here. Looks like one of his alts is already here downvoting lol. Fortunately there’s a karma limit here so he can’t just mass downvote without farming a few accounts up to snuff.
Oh, this is a HUGE problem. I call it the ENGLISH ON THE QUE BALL problem.
Everything in the universe has spin. Eventually spin generates enough momentum and you end up balkanization as you said, splintering, new growth and then you repeat the process in each of the new groups.
I can't really explain fully how valuable it has been to me to explore the extremes of the left and right and to be in various communities that value free speech and strongly promote it. There is tremendous value in the noise of diversity of views that helps you see a much larger and more clear picture.
I still cannot get over the realization that here and a few other places are WHERE NORMAL PEOPLE ARE. I just can't get over how clean it feels to be sitting amongst users chatting about all kinds of nonsense and there isn't a single piece of degenerate material anywhere. Not a single porn post, not a single degenerate deviant behaviour post.
These places are, honestly, the most family friendly places I have ever seen, all self selected by users.
Would you rather send your kids to Reddit or .WIN?
Unfortunately not, didn’t expect them to wipe such an “established” account. It was just your bog-standard concern trolling in an attempt to control the narrative though so you aren’t missing much.
Maybe if the admins show up in this thread like they did my last one they can scrounge up the text from their end.
Normie users: "I got downvoted. Oh heavens. Not my internet points. Anyways..."
Power users: "I MUST control the conversation! And make as many internet points as possible! MY LIFE FOR INTERNET POINTS!"
What do you mean? This shill was being tolerated and even agreed with by the admins. He only deleted his account after it was pointed out with enough evidence to be undeniable.
Ahh ok we’re in agreement.

Kind of like a mix between Reddit and 4chan
I don’t think it’s available, the whole site is closed source afaik
Nice call out. Effective! Could you discern what type of opinions he was trying to push?

Ohhhhhh ... is that what is happening?
I see what you are saying. That makes a great deal of sense. I'm with you this point, I concede.
Thanks for the heads up.
For sure, no problem.

What a crazy thought, eh?
Go home crazy, you're drunk. LOL, your screenname is almost as crude as it gets. Graphenium uses some salty language, but I think it's warranted.
The number one giveaway for the shills is their desire to devolve.
Who is the top mod of this sub?
Advocating for the same ideologies as "ragnar"?
Hang on, I think my metal detector is picking something up just under this surface...
What does the newt think.

Good. Keep the system it is, you can turn politics off if you want, but no censorship.
Unfortunately not, didn’t expect them to wipe such an “established” account. It was just your bog-standard concern trolling in an attempt to control the narrative though so you aren’t missing much.

You won the battle, they wiped to hide the rest. Good work.
They exposed more accounts in the reply shilling
