I've talked with other mods and I am proposing the current changes I've implemented. I have changed the side bar from:
Warning: Some describe this as a "fringe" conspiracy forum. If you're afraid of the info you may encounter here, please confine yourself to Win's safe-space conspiracy forum, here.
Which oddly links to; c/GreatAwakening. Not sure why Clems did that, but, I don't like it, seems suspect. Further, not sure why they are trying to make out conspiracy theories as fringe or scary?
I replaced it with:
Conspiracies.win: This is a forum for free thinking and for discussing issues which have captured your imagination. Please respect other views and opinions, and keep an open mind. Our goal is to create a fairer and more transparent world for a better future.
and further outlined:
The Golden Rule: Be respectful. Attack the argument, not the person.
Thus, establishing the Ethos of this forum (set in stone). This was the Ethos I agreed upon when Axo made me a mod here first when we both were purged from Reddit. Me first, then him. Thank god for us creating Voat accounts back in the day. Still pissed some top mind took my original Putin_loves_cats original username here. Anwyays...
Clems had this as a general disclaimer:
Submissions of exceptionally low quality, trolling, spam, and those submissions determined to be intentionally misleading, may all be removed.
I built off this and replaced it with:
Disclaimer: Submissions/comments of exceptionally low quality, trolling, stalking, spam, and those submissions/comments determined to be intentionally misleading, calls to violence and/or abuse of other users here, may all be removed at moderator's discretion.
This is what I propose to the community and other mods here (ie. Axo, me, and Clems). The sidebar can always be reverted back if the response calls for it (from the community and my other co-mods) and I will concede.
Weigh in with your thoughts and opinions. Furthermore, you have a more artistic tongue in legalese, propose any alteration to the disclaimer to make it less ambiguous and more succinct. I suck at legalese.
Did reddit take over c/conspiracies?
No, and if you knew anything about me, you'd know that reddit and the mods of /r/conspiracy have no love for me. They perma suspended me in the second round of the Great Purge.
Very odd, the non-responses from both you and Axo, who profusely apologized to me by DM for banning me, then simply ignored anything else I said.
And that's not even mentioning Clem and his flat Earth bs. Why are the mods mocking users of the board? It's literally the OPPOSITE of moderation.
I have no idea what you are talking about. I never banned you, nor do I remember ever talking to you. As for Clems and his bias against FE, I cannot really comment on it. I don't know the dude and I suppose we all have our bias. Do I think he should be more open minded about it? Yes, I am. I don't believe in FE but I could care less if you do or want to post/talk about it. I'm not one of those "hurr durr, FE is just to make us look st00pid". As if half the shit we talk about doesn't already do that amongst the normies. I could give two shits what others (especially normies) think. I am who I am.
The flat earth thing isn't really that important, it's Clem banning people that talk about specific shills. especially if they make a post about it. That's extremely disturbing. It's no different than Reddit at all, where AssuredlyAThrowaway used alts or protected alts that attacked the users.
Clem even took to mocking me personally for talking about it, and threatened me with permanent banning. I would not doubt that some shills are his alts alone.
