Is this the end of Holla Forums?

Our discussions are getting popular therefore shittier. How can we reverse this trend and how does someone combat the wave of id?

Looks good to me

Let's make a splinter board

Fuck off , Trot fag.

I'm joking fam.
A terrible one i admit

In more seriousness, it depend what kind of objective you have for this place, if you want good content produce good ontent, report shitposting bother you.
If you want a sekreet club, convince BO to allow goreposting and loli porn, that should drive people off.

You'd need more moderation to delete stuff you dislike. Problem with that, you now have more mods that all have different opinions and tolerance. So you'd essentially become even more like Holla Forums, in that regard, that you already are.

That's not going to happen. The mods here are intent on courting the reddit demographic.

Don't admit that! This site already hates you enough

What do you feel about involvement of this faggot in it?

WEEKEND READING THREADS

I don't really consider this my "home board" or anything. I visit Holla Forums because it is the least bad of the politics boards. I will criticize it when it deserves criticism.

I've noticed our memes popping up on general political discussion groups on normiebook. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Porky and left wing Pepe seem to be getting popular.

Normies are going to come here to shitpost and contribute

100% positive

It's bad news bears. Pepe is our enemy and is infiltrating our ranks like a goddamn saboteur.. he must be destoryed at ALL costs. I may make some porky propaganda later today as a means of retaliation.

queen rachel is slowly exposing this cis-male scum: youtube.com/watch?v=j_fbVrKfqnw

No, the mods here are just lazy.

100% fucking awful.

the solution is marxism-leninism btw

...

They're not lazy. Posts containing loli get deleted almost immediately.
It is more accurate to say they are vexatious.

WHAT THE FUCK?!!
GET RID OF THESE REDDIT SJW MODS REEEEEEEEEE

quality discussion on Holla Forums will suffer when facebook types come here. not sure about the memes, don't like porky very much tbh.
also, by gaining popularity Holla Forums might draw attention of pro shills.

of course the fucking trot wants to split

Fucking heresy.

Nah, don't worry about it. When they are done signaling virtue and tripfagging, they will either adopt board culture or fuck off.
Nothing to see here, sage and ignore as usual.

Our mods are just shit. They ban people for normal posting of shit like loli, but at the same time allow reddit posting and eceleb threads. They want this to be a normalfag board and it shows. I might just give up on imageboards seeing as this is the only one I visit anymore. Time would be better spent reading.

It have limits. Personifying a group of people with a character is easier than personifying an economic system.
The merchant match more Holla Forums narrative than Porky match Marxist theory…

How would one translate the logic of capital self replication anyway? A dollar bill with legs multiplying into people heads?

That's retarded. Cats can live on the streets and in the wilderness.
Liberterians don't.

lolbert hate thread?

thinking anything was ever good

It won't work that way. You can't just ignore them or leave them be. Take it from an oldfag. The only way to preserve quality is to filter the newfags and treat it like a secret club. I watched Holla Forums go to complete shit while at the same time /a/ managed to keep reasonable quality discussion just by being the insufferable elitist faggots they are. The only other way to handle a general decline in quality is for mods to step up and do something, but that can also have negative results.

methods for repelling newfags?
Do we have to go full ironic tankie?

...

Looks generally like some autist is spamming cakes, otherwise it seems fine.

...

This.

Well, for /a/ loli posting and generally being faggots helped to scare off newfags or force them to conform. Holla Forums was a good filter for the site as a whole because gore and CP got spammed regularly thus getting rid of the worst normalfags. I don't think we can or should directly copy /a/. If anything it might make the board worse since we are a bit different from a regular hobby board.

I think embracing the older imageboard culture more fully and mods deleting shitty threads would go a long way to improve quality. Even just deleting shitty threads would be a good start. When people only see threads with in-depth discussion they either leave or get involved in a more meaningful way. When the board is mostly eceleb threads and bait shitposting will be the norm people get used to. To make quality posters you need to make quality the norm rather than the exception.

Might repost this in the mod feedback thread. Should really push them to at the very least enforce high post quality for OPs.

Maybe we post shitloads of theory and infodump until at least the illiterate ones fuck off or actually discover something?

But I like shitposting, and I like fun.
Do we have to go completely square to scare them off?

I think more theory focused threads and discussion would be better. Just dumping quotes or infographs wouldn't do much to help.


We can't let it be the norm like it is now. We can still have fun and honestly I think memes are our best export, but the best memes come out of regular discussions rather than the usually forced shit we are seeing. I'm not saying there should be no shitposting, but we can't have every fucking thread be shitposting

agreed, here are the worst threads:
"Is x allowed under socialism?"
E-celeb BS - I've never even heard of most of these people (oldfag)
Normie politics
Liberal issues

Better than just being edgelords TBH.

I like my shitposting and fun but we need to Make Leftypol Quality Again.

Ok, I'm going to bump the good threads then.

Well, they do give bans like:

I still think thread IDs are the way to go. It doesn't even go against the "animemoose nature of image boards" like some fags tend to say.

I wouldn't be against them, but I've never been a huge fan.

They would make zero difference.
The problem is that the moderation doesn't give a shit about Holla Forums making their 100th "but what about niggers" thread or reddit making their 100th "sexism is a real problem sinners" thread. Meanwhile they waste their time enforcing stupid rules like the ban on NSFW images (as if anyone browses Holla Forums at work).

If the mods don't care about the quality of the board, you shouldn't be surprised it ends up shit.
