There are a handful of people across the .wins who, I would say, “entertain the notion” and maybe even lean towards it, but who do so in a humble and respectable manner. Nothing they’ve said on the subject has been convincing to me, or if it did have merit it wasn’t indicative (necessarily) of any kind of FE conclusion. Maybe like 8-10 of them on the high end. But what’s hilarious is those aren’t even really the people in that thread (other than maybe like 5/700 comments)
But mainly I just meant I found it funny that it isn’t even “we like seeing it” vs “we don’t like seeing it”, it’s “nebulous and undefined support of free speech” vs “common sense forum maintenance/protection”.
I don’t envy you mods with any real work loads
He’s into catnip I hear
That’s just my personal opinion. You can read the mod’s approach to votes in his post.
It’s telling however, how emotional you’re getting about this, for someone who’s never posted a single thread and barely ever commented you sure seem to care a lot about what threads get posted or removed
So why is it ok for it to be against their rules but not ours?
NOTE: OP is a Qultist who made a flat earth post on gayawaking which got instantly removed
Are we really gunna let the retards at GAy make more sense than us?
The point is, you’re far from a contributor, and even your status as a good faith commenter is up for debate.
Prove me wrong. Make this place great. But frankly your vote isn’t relevant if you aren’t a contributing member of the community.

Tell me what graphical image is displayed next to your username in that comment?
I don't believe gravity exists at all.
So what makes everything fall at approximately 9.8 m/s/s on or near earth?
So then why does shit fall down at 9.8 m/s/s ?
Yeah it’s this faggot who’s the most prolific shill on the site (he shows up in my list up there and down below in the comments)
I’ve been here since day 1, I’m not sure how long you’ve been here, but there has been a noticeable decline in quality, enthusiasm, engagement, community building, etc over that time
I’m shocked anyone can see that guy as anything other than what he is, a mentally ill scammer and spammer.
Regarding censorship, idk, I think Clem made some good arguments in his responses to nay voters - his job is to take out the trash, does the community think FE is trash?
We seem pretty split (maybe less so if the accounts voting Nay were scrutinized - I found 6 incredibly sketchy ones in a quick glance earlier today)
Anyway, cheers man, hope to see more of your contributions here!
Agreed, unfortunately.
One of my goals is to get the admins to add the functionality for communities to sort by /active instead of just /hot.
It would turn the forum into an older style “bump” based board. It would hopefully alleviate a lot of the upvote and personality thirsting.
I think it’d be an experiment worth trying
Look dude, that comment is saying far more about TS than it is about you. I’ve enjoyed your contributions where I’ve seen them, but frankly there is a difference in scale between you two.
Skil is basically the only person I’ve ever seen here willing to call out all bullshit (as he sees it, and no, his perspective is not flawless, but it’s certainly quite accurate). He’s the only user I’ve ever seen call out fake talmud passages (and he has the real ones to hand) AND zionist subversion. He’s one of the few I’ve seen call out fake headlines and articles, even (especially) the ones that fit our biases.
Also, while most people here just do nothing (or grumble into the void) about spammers like that savior faggot and the amazon link retard, he gets details and posts them on c/meta, where the admin will then (attempt to) solve them.
So I think, frankly, in the conversation about the “health” of this place, yes, Skil has an outsized voice.
That guy seems to “dislike” many conspiracies. A bit of an r/Skeptic-type in my personal estimation. But that doesn’t mean he’s wrong, necessarily.
Frankly, I could go either way on wholesale banning of topics. It seems like the vast majority of the “Nay” votes were coming at it from the perspective of free-speech absolutism. Which is great and all. But that doesn’t mean much of anything if they aren’t willing to reckon with valid counter arguments (such as: spam is already removed, FE is spam - or any of the other good arguments)
I think the key point is that many of us just want to raise the quality level of this place, and removing flat earth spam is almost the “lowest-hanging fruit” of that intent.
Yes, that is subjective, but it benefits no one to be paralyzed by indecision
We just can’t say either way! It’s almost as if objective truth doesn’t exist! No I’m not a communist why would you say that?!?
Because I oppose mentally ill faggots from sodomizing dogs?
Thanks for admitting you don’t support freeze peach, mongoloid
Don’t blame me, I voted for Kodos
So two factual, on topic comments are “bullshit” and “spam” which necessitate a permanent ban?
Like I mentioned before, follow your dogs into traffic you mentally ill faggot

Just hoping to share some info:
It’s not (solely) “because of gravity”. There are a lot of factors at play such as viscosity, density, friction, etc. Please check this out for an overview:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_layer
And more specifically:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_boundary_layer
Strange, certainly but the standard explanation (relative co-relational rotation) fits, and this doesn’t really have any bearing on the shape of the earth. (Lunar) Tides wouldn’t work on a flat however.
Not a thing afaik. This would be common knowledge.
Very interesting subject highly worthy of discussion:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine-tuned_universe
But in no way relavent to the FE discussion
True
A massive one until you can present any kind of evidence or cohesive explanation
I agree, the issue is the people who a)present it as fact and b) always try to shoehorn FE into every discussion - that is literally forum sliding , whether intentional (conscious) or not
Watch out for predators. Many have developed agressive mimicry:
