Moderator Feedback Thread

This thread is dedicated to the discussion of Holla Forums moderation, both as a matter of direction and accountability for individual actions.

Apparently the last thread got inadvertently unstickied. No it was not an act of suppression.

NOTE: This thread is not for the discussion of the recent potential migration announcement. You are allowed to discuss the matter, just not in this thread.

Why not just sticky the old thread?

I think it hadn't had a post in quite a while, so it slipped off the board as soon as it was unsticked. Could be wrong though: I can't seem to access the moderator action log at the moment.

you're all a bunch of incompetent fucks.

Ah, shit. I thought the moment it was unstickied acted as its last bump.

How many mods does Holla Forums have, and how many of them were here from the start of the board? It's something that I've always wondered.

Finally.

I think after that disastrous "let's leave this site, for I'm Moses!" thread we deserve a reassuring presence of the mods.

Are you fags the same old comrades. If so, can yous prove it?

rood.

it's a half-proof, tho

You've done a fantastic job of handling the downtime.

...

I got the job after applying several months ago. We had a substantial jump in posters to the 600 range and needed more mods to keep up. I don't think anyone but BO knows the full numbers though.

Why not make this a general meta thread so we don't have more than one sticky about dumb bullshit?

...

Don not question the exodus as proposed by BO. That's wrongthink.

...

Apparently there's around 15 people with volunteer accounts for the board, but only ~7-10 are actually active.


Same mods. We've been in talks basically all night about the various… issues of the past few days.
Can't exactly prove that I'm an old mod, but as a consolation prize, here's the oldest image from my leftypol folder.

STOP VIOLATING OP, YOU FAG

I'm sold.

that's not how the fuck criticism works holy shit

This is not a question about that very im… kkkhg… very important thread's content per se, but about it's raison d'être, more specifically its status as STICKIED.

When will it be unstickied? When will it be let to slide?
Why is it not already?

thx for answa

Yes, please put it in the trash, set the trashcan on fire, and remove all evidence of the trashcans existence.

...

Because this thread would quickly devolve into shit posting about just that issue.
It was bad enough that this thread was even remade, surly you should be able to accept a few restrictions.

Why?

The cycle feature isn't working right now, so if that discussion brings with it the type of rapid rate of response we saw in the earlier sticky, this thread will be unloadable after a few hours.
You're free to make a separate thread discussing the matter, but this thread is more reserved for the usual discussion of bans, deletions, bumplocks, etc (like the old thread).


I think its just stickied while deliberation on its contents are underway. It will probably be removed in the next day or two.

C-can't… spdf… we have it de… pppgfg… deliberated without that…fffffffg… very important thread without it being stickied?

srs question

Now they're back. What's going on here? I've noticed images disappearing with the "file never existed" and then returning.

The "File never existed" image is the joke.

BO STARTED MOVING IMAGES TO ANOTHER SITE

originality


Fair enough, thanks.
we did and it got bumplocked
>but this thread is more reserved for the usual discussion of bans, deletions, bumplocks, etc (like the old thread).
And I did that. I posted about a bumplock in this bumplock discussion thread. Also, since when was feedback limited to just those things? Those aren't the only things the mods have been doing that the userbase might have feedback regarding.

I have yet to have any concern what so ever.

Honestly, so far it has been chill.

Holla Forums just trying to inject his >not_real_communism or >dis_is_why_communism_never_works in some threads, but it was somewhat surprisingly ignored by the community.

This. This is fine. Everything's fine

Feel free to make a new thread. BO has made it clear to the volunteer staff that she wants to permit discussion on the matter. She'll be gone until tomorrow likely though, so don't expect her to respond.
Its not. Those are just examples of the standard feedback thread content.

On that note, try to keep it to a single thread at a time. I'd rather not see the catalog get flooded.

stahp

This is by far the maddest post on the topic yet. Good job namefag.

why are you guise trying to piss everybody off tonight?

I think they've been stuck in a chat with each other winding each other up for a few days while everyone else just saw the board restoration list and laughed at how petty it was and moved on.

That could explain it I guess. IRC confirmed for cancer.

Can you take down the stick pin on Holla Forums leaving.

I'm staying tbh.

...

Sure is samefaggy in here.

You were caught lying once already. Your behavior is shameful and if Holla Forums is to die, its because of the mods like you and the BO. But it will just get reborn by someone more competent later.

nice rulecucked board

it didn't have to be like this

Fuck, I wish. The board went from an awesome font of intelligent discourse with some (1) and done shitposters who were always ignored, to this disgusting combination of Holla Forums, /r9k/ and an edgier r/socialism over the last year.

I'd start posting again if the fucking BO stopped being an inconsistent bag of shit and finally purged these reddit-tier vols, set up a strict set of rules, and got new vols that enforced said rules in a transparent manner (no hidden names in board logs, public ban messages for ALL bans, and no post deletion).

I'm for this minus the strict rules

What an ironic statement, didnt you see the BO's meltdown in the sticky?
Purge the reddit-tier vols? the BO is one of the biggest cases of them. Im fucking disgusted with how much of a childish "my way or the highway" meltdown the BO demonstrated, the vols were trying to keep a level headed discussion but the BO just kept screeching at everyone including codemonkey.

This board has the most anchored and bans on 8ch next to /a/. with no reason given to bans just drop like just check the hidden log of hidden mods. there's no denying its a rulecucked board. Holla Forums deserves better.

thx for the laughs, Holla Forums mods. :^)

The strict enforcement of rules is what allows for meaning for discussions to take place.
Quite honestly, I can only fault the BO and mod team for being for to lenient and transparent in regards rules.

If anything, I think more rules should be added and the punishments for the breach of existing rules should be dramatically increased.

Making Mark and Imkampfy look like competent mods took a herculean effort yet here we are!


Sickening, give yourself a shotgun mouthwash.

You really are not /leftychill/ material, please return to either reddit or bunkerchan as those places are more suited to no fun allowed rulefags like yourself.

Now that you mention it, where's the link to that? The old thread had one. Can we get it back?

Yes we get lots of meaningful discussion done when threads are locked because 'things are getting out of hand' :^)

WEW LAD

Such actions prevent this board just becoming Holla Forums.
You should be glad that such actions take place.

As I said before, I think we could stand to be much more strict.
Totally banning memes would be a good place to start.

choke on a cock

Fuck off, spacedick. The ideal board has minimal rules determined by the community. If the board owner and mods/volunteers can be selected from the community as well (by lottery to preserve anonymity) all the better.

Wew lad, this is an /r/socialism tier post

Isn't it funny that the board moderation isn't communistic but fascist? I guess communism really doesn't work. :^)

Memes do nothing but distract from worthwhile discussion.
Only those that shitpost, rather then make meaningful contributions would miss them.
They are a blight.

I agree, tripfags belong in the gulag comarade!

I wish I could write you off as just a troll but whether or not you are, there are people who are legitimately this stupid. No, the board doesn't need to have any form of levity banned. Shitposts and eceleb shit ought to be confined or even put on another board though.

This guy is right, y'know. Just look at Holla Forums.

No, they can show tone and what one is driving at where typing doesn't convey those adequately.

It's right here.
In order to access it, you have to go to a board that has public logs, then change the board name url because the BO doesnt want to have any sort of transparency. Even Holla Forums doesn't hide who's doing the modding.
sys.8ch.net/log.php?board=leftypol

goddamn.

Do not question the volunteers comrade, they know better than you what you want!

Just gonna throw it out there again… did the BO and/or volunteers have their accounts compromised in the hack? Do we have any way to determine this?

Thanks comr8. Vols, can you maybe sticky that in the top comment like before?

Im satisfied in their services. Its the website hosts that seem to be Holla Forumsyps.

Unless they also all lost control of their accounts not attached to Holla Forums.
I can confirm that they were not compromised.

never change 8ch, you retarded cucks. ilu

Why is it so hard to believe this is the real mod team? the logs have been hidden for months. the BO is a manchild and the /vol/s are the only ones who have any competence, if the BO had any respect for Holla Forums he would hand over the keys to one of the /vol/s who's trying to steer the ship.

Board Owners I don't want Holla Forums to go.

We were rising in popularity, and I think you're shooting yourselves in the foot.

It's the sudden "we gotta leave". The rest is par for the course really.

If the current BO is the be replaced.
Space_ is the only one that should be considered to replace him.
This place would be pretty great with Space_ at the helm.

space_ is cancer

The we gotta leave is strictly because of the hack, and the BO having a mental breakdown over a little downtime. If Holla Forums was put in the first batch the BO would be circlejerking about it instead. It's patheticly childish, I could have easily waited a week for the board to come back to function but as soon as it does the BO decides to throw shit around like a monkey

goddamn BO go outside or something, wew. We are now the laughing stock of Holla Forums cause of you.

This is the exact sort of thing that makes people call us easily-triggered faggots.


this.


Why don't you fuck off to buttholechan if you like everything about it so much? Stop trying to make everyone and everything like your special snowflake board.


Most of the people who seem concerned about it are the vols, I think everybody else is behind a proxy atp fam.

they arent making a big deal out of the leaks and sunshine if thats what you mean, they're soley focused on the delusional idea that codemonkey is out to get them as a threat, so they have to panic and fear monger. Barely any of the users actually agreed with them, except this bootlicker Howard. Yet the BO was insistent on forcing everyone to go along with whatever he wanted, so it's things like that that make it clear the BO should step down. The idea that codemonkey would delete the board and shoot himself in the foot by losing user traffic is beyond asinine yet thats what the BO and Vols think.

And no one trusts the BO over all of the banning for dissent that went on earlier, so proxie up.

Give me one reason I should care about this board.

can anyone gib the original version of this image plox

Don't, fuck off forever to the bunker.

you guys gonna do something about the gurospam or what?


there's also threads jizzing all over this trainwreck, do we need those?

um, excuse me, but the mods have had an emotional and psychotic breakdown you can't just, like, expect them to do their job in this state omg

oh fuck me

mods can't even right now I mean gosh

sys.8ch.net/log.php?board=leftypol

Maybe they're asleep? Seem to recall the need for a night crew being dicussed.

Nah mods have left you for bunkerchan, time to face it, they want this place dead

...

how do I apply for volunteer? this board is getting shat up

You don't. BO wants this place dead, create another board.

proofs?

MAYBE THE STICKIED 700 REPLIES THREAD
I DUNNO LAD

thanks for the up-to-the-minute report on your fee-fees, user, everybody really needed this important information

nothing to complain about the mods so far.
except there are few bait threads currently up that should be taken care of.
just sayin.

Taken care of.

good job man

thanks

a few of us are from /sudo/ tho who came here for the keks
>>>/sudo/32518

learn to laugh @ urself nerd. your BO is an autistic cunt, what board owner isn't tbh.

okay that was pretty good

This was the best you could do /sudo/? Embarrassing. Reading a book is leftist now?

lmao they literally couldn't find a single thing that actually made us look bad

BO is a gril ?
where are the tits ? they should be sticky'd !

That pic actually makes Holla Forums looks cool, specially the skulls tbh.

I don't understand this meme. Are we supposed to look good there?

...

wew

why admins still going soft on Holla Forums after their fiasco last week? instead of giving some fucks to them, i think mods should restore /rule34/ instead

Can someone prevent the thread cybernetics (>>1477348) from dying? It's pretty good, and it would be a shame to loose it.

I just want to thank the mods for helping our community. It wouldn't be the same without mods even Jim Profit was fine with.

It's exactly the level of skill, knowledge of the userbase and way of interaction with the userbae that I've come to expect from the staff here. It's like the higher up you are in an e-heirarchy, the more points are shaved off your autism level.

Most of us got the joke & found it funny. The boards were restored around the same time anyway.

it IS good, however cycling will kill it. I personally recreated thread on bunkerchan and I will recreate it here (if nobody else would be faster), but as I said in (and a few anons before me), leave thread "naturally" die! This approach is much better for academic discussion than news-tier cycling.

you can call me a tinfoil hat, but I'm 80% sure that BO was compromised in the hack

threatens to force leftypol exodus
provokes codemonkey
blabbers "they want to shut it down!" like some Alex Jones

who knows maybe hacker changed logs after getting password to leftypol

Nope. Just asleep at the wheel. They're that incompetent and now the whole site knows because the BO couldn't keep their spaghetti contained.

More like drunk at the wheel.

My mental image is a woman carrying a giant pot of spaghetti and sauce in her lap in the car, getting into a car accident that's their fault, and then when the cops come to take a statement the woman (covered in spaghetti sauce and noodles) attempts to assault the cop and pull a sovereign citizen routine.

Sadly accurate analogy. This entire thing has just been confusing.

youtube.com/watch?v=QCozh_vbYdM
never gets old

Damn Holla Forums, all you had to do was keep losing debates to Sargon of Cuckad. Why'd you go full retard?

Besides the fact that has nothing to do with this, who debated him? Sargon should be easy to take on, as much as he contradicts himself.

Holla Forums may as well be one person if that one person thinks their personal feelings outweigh the rest and to shut the whole board down "force a migration". really makes you think.

I didn't realized forced migration happened. BO is not our boss, she just left her feelings get ahead of her.

Wanna try that again, user?

Gets the noggin joggin. The politically left board is handled by fascists :^)

She let everyone know she was 14 years old.

trannies are mentally unstable so it's not a surprise that xir had a breakdown because some chink didn't put your board up first.

BO isn't a tranny or a woman, the BO=qt grill is just a meme.

Moderation is pretty good but I would like a harder stance against explicit, unironic racism as well as banning Nazis

Seriously, what happened to the BO? Was he on PCP or some shit, because that was embarassing.

Another thread laughing at us abloo bloo:
>>>/sudo/32518


Now this is a possibility, tho I suspect such a troll would go the easy route and just fuck up the board settings. If it really is someone else impersonating the BO, kudos to him because it's a magnificent long con.

Can an admin check his old and new IP/ISP/whatever? Assuming we can even get an admin to listen to us now, I guess.

Wew it's like using a three month old playbook for trolling is retarded.

And it just occured to me that when Sourcesimian said mod passwords were vulnerable, Holla Forums would inevitably be the most targeted one.

Some Holla Forumsirgins seem to think the BO banned the commie catgirl. I'm guessing he didn't sink that low, right?

I can assure you this is not the case. Rachel is a personal friend and a great content producer who has broken no rules to date.

...

Seriously tho, can one of you who hangs out on IRC or Discord or whatever the cool admins use nowadays, please see

it is the BO, we're talking on tox which we set up several months ago and requires a different password than the mod account.

is the BO doing ok?
I think the banter got a bit out of hand, BO might be a bit paranoid but it's understandable considering how we got fucked over

Said no one ever

I hear the BO's doctor is a Capitalist assassin trying to stop the BO's glorious and iron-fisted rule.

Big if true.

Can we have a cycled SYRIAN HABBEDING containment thread?

It's basically an indirect way of calling us SJWs.

Permabanned for pic related. Explain yourselves pls. BO still on their period?

who cares

Post it again without your IP you faggot.

I don't care; I always browse on a VPN. But sure.

What I want to know is why I was banned and why it was a fucking perma.

Anyone?

Hello.

Sorry m8, not the fella who banned you.

Can you look over whether the ban was justified and either keep me banned or unban me then? I don't think my post was a shitpost, or that I've been shitposting and certainly not that I deserved a perma for that.

Thanks.

Can we ban the retards that come in just to fling shit and tell us about our board and leftism, and then refuse to listen and have little stomps around farming (You)s everywhere? Normally I just ignore them but they're ruining the cozy vibe the new Holla Forums posters that don't want to be gigantic faggots are creating. Even if it's just until this wave of new posters tails off.

>The cycle feature isn't working right now, so if that discussion brings with it the type of rapid rate of response we saw in the earlier sticky, this thread will be unloadable after a few hours.

LIKE POTTERY

HE DOES IT FOR FREE

...

Yep I guess that just about summarizes my gripes with the Holla Forums administrators.

requesting filter of Asserism to Asserjism

It's liberals and canada all over again. Nothing is going to happen.

mods deleted that thread someone made about academics.
why?
that was interesting.

They do it for free

actually, a bunch of threads I can still see on the front page are 404 when click on them.
maybe somehting else is wrong

i'm guessing use of the tox is for the BO clique only

Holla Forums is a bit unstable because of the board restoration thing. If a thread gives you 404 when it shouldn't, you can try this: >>>/sudo/33263

Add sys.8ch.net/log.php?board=leftypol to the OP.
Also 8ch.net/bans.html if they ever bring it back.

The log is linked at the bottom of the faq thread OP

Old mod sticky had those links too.

Bans
Doesn't ban
Why would you do this?

When will you make a goddamn Marxism-Leninism flag?

We;ve already got stalinstache and tankie flags

Then let's rename Anarchism into "Smashies".

Why are the rules so inconsistently and drastically applied here? It feels as though we're at the whim of the moderators, as though the same post wouldn't fly one moement to the other. There's tons and tons of bans, and its not even transparent its just people hitting the delete all posts button and ban.

I liked this board for its loose moderation style and now its just clamping down. Its unfair to the users, you've made this place less than it should be. All in the name of punishing someone for shitposting or same fagging? What a fucking joke. This board needs freedom so that its users aren't at the behest of some sort of random r socialism mod. This board should stand against the rule fags.
LET UP MODS LET UP GIVE US THE FREEDOM YOU CLAIM THAT WE HAVE

Proof Howard_Scott is Space_


Stop talking about yourself in third person Space_ you massive cunt.

Are you actually banning that discord shill or is he that resilient?

The catalog is full of discord spam, strong measures need to be taken. Please wordfilter discord links to CIANIGGERS.GOV

We're banning him.


Report them when you see them.

Yeah, no lolocaust denial on this board.

plz god no


having 8 different flags for anarchism already proves a point, imo

Still waiting for you guys to come up with a proper alternative to being here.

Are you afraid of being called out on your non-existent ideology?

If any point is proven it is the visceral anti-Communism of BO.

How long ago Maoism was called Mautism?

Daily reminder for all comrades to not sperg out against right-wing individuals who have come to discuss stuff.

Daily reminder for all comrades to DO report spam and bait.

It's better if you interact with anons with different views to better apply your knowledge as well as familiarize yourselves with common arguments. It's better than reporting, letting them get banned, and then hearing a week later about how "leftypol is such a circlejerk!!!!!!"

Have people been doing this or is it just a reminder? I don't think anyone even posted anything smug when Trump bombed Syria.

Is it true that the BO for Holla Forums is the same BO for Holla Forums, imkampfy? Some user told me this, I want to know if it's true.

It would be hilarious if that were the case, but no. If you look at the leaked modlist, Holla Forums BO is listed among the first 3000 or so accounts made back when the site itself was still pretty new. imkampfy was in the 17000's out of the accounts made; LONG after Holla Forums BO came on the scene. BO hasn't really been involved in a lot of the boards outside of this one in any official capacity within that timeframe.

Someone over on Holla Forums found that imkampfy had two accounts. That account you are talking about is his second one but there is a non-listed one in the leaked messages under the id number 9152 (it is not in the leaked modlist). Not that that refutes your point, because it is still 6000 accounts later.

Hi I was just wondering if Hoochie could be our new BO after the current one nukes the board.

they're both gigantic faggots but they're not the same person. sadly.

Kek is this truly the BO? Where is xir's excellent glasses?

yes

How did you find this? Did xir use their real email address like a fucking mongoloid?

saw it posted here several times before it was deleted
still can't confirm that it's the BO 100%

Well I had my doubts but it was posted in this thread a few hours ago asking "Is this the leftypol BO?" and I responded to it suggesting it wasn't and it was only getting deleted because dumbfucks kept making threads with it, but then the pic and the conversation were deleted.

Just use bunkerchan

Kill yourself Space_

Why? :^)

Have you not been to bunkerchan? I wouldn't blame you if you hadn't, nobody else has.

Will you hotpockets ever do something about people who post this picture?

Just because, you know, it is the board owner

Test

Couldn't resist
