Hey there, Holla Forums, GETchan admin here...

That's pretty cool.

This tbh. Who designs the medals? Who pays for them? Do they, in fact, deserve a medal?

I support this although it'll be a while before I can donate

That's always an option!

Y-you too.

Until now they've always been paid out-of-pocket. What we hope to accomplish with this Patreon is to be able to get these things out more frequently.

Thanks for your support, user!

SJW tier shit right here

So far the only person from Holla Forums to get one is Catgirl Drawgirl, and I wouldn't say she's done "literally nothing".

...

Tbh there is an entire list of YT'ers to do them for. On TSS, we have these people down as "heros of socialist labour":
Hbombrguy
Marxist Media
Muke
Socialism or Barbarism,
and Bakto
I would personally add Holla Forums videos and Badmouse tbh. Having a set of people recognised for their work would be worth funding.

But they're not for doing nothing.

Le boomer maymay. I've literally never seen anyone give out a participation trophy.

Cry more Holla Forums, you've been on here showing off your unique and beautiful artwork and when you reverse image search it it was a commission paid for by a redditor.

It's funny because you could in a way consider all of boomer's worldly possessions participation trophies.

Badmouse doesnt like leftypol though. And leftypol videos only uploads videos from here as far as i know.

We could send one to the Wolff…

Please god no.

If we are gonna do anything for the Wolff it should be sponsoring another Global Capitalism podcast.

Should we try and start a new Holla Forums? One free of potential CIA subversion (Jim), with political neutrality and focusing on quality discussion and fun (not the salt pit Holla Forumsyps are turning the internet into), hosted in a country where the site owner doesn't have to worry about state interference, and with BO recall for legacy boards, and a constitution system?

Not sure what TSS is, but we actually do have a "Hero of Socialist Labour" medal. They're a bit on the pricier side to make because the engraving has to be custom-done, but it's not unreasonable.

We have two backup sites for leftypol, and you can get into contact with others from leftypol very easily to organise if shit hits the fan. Hosting an entire new Holla Forums costs a lot of money and I doubt people here want to spend that kind of money on a site that might host even more alt right retardation.

Yeah the alt-right are fucking annoying, I like some of the ancaps and lolberts because they'll give you decent financial advice if you need it, and some of the fascists can be polite and intelligent if you're capable of mentally separating them from their fuckwitted friends. I just think imageboards are being ruined and are on their way out, and don't want to create a massive circlejerk in the process of trying to save the culture.

I've been thinking about doing it.

Ancaps are the most economically illiterate people on the planet.

The socialist server, discord set up by ProSoc (didn't want to advertise it in this thread).

Ive also been thinking about doings lots of shit.
Making a "things I want to do one day" or "things that would be cool if they existed" doesnt mean shit, every human on earth has those lists.
Talk to me if you have actually taken steps towards it.

I've gone through the trouble of figuring out how to set it up. I haven't done it yet because I have no money. Want to wait until I have steady employment rather than spend rent money on a chinese cartoon board.

Economically illiterate is not the same as financially illiterate, they'll tell you where to make a heap on emerging cryptocurrency markets and other commodities because their ideology makes them want to help others manage their finances. The problem is you need money to start with, so it can seem infuriating to leftists, who are often radicalised due to economic inequality and a lack of opportunity.

These are the medals that are currently on-hand, which means they could be shipped out tomorrow. There are also parts of other medals on-hand, but either they're not assembled or we don't have the pieces necessary to complete them yet.

These aren't all the medals available, but it's just to give you guys an idea of where we stand right now. You can find a complete list here:

Whoops, messed up my "Board Volunteer" title.

I cringed at this post

please do not do this

This would be the best thing to do with the donations imo.

Get out.

Only YTers that would deserve Holla Forums recognising them at most would be Bat'ko and Muke. Everyone else is either cringy fucks, paedo defenders, rapist defenders, or all of the above.

u wot

Get out.

What the fuck are you going to do with the money?

As I've said, it's up to the patrons. Whatever they vote on is what the funds will go towards. And I'll cover whatever isn't covered by the Patreon.

Send an Alunya statue Richard D. Wolff

That would be beautiful.

Hey, that-user-at-the-brink-of-blind-violence-from-the-other-thread here. I succeeded at intimidating my bank into submission and I have now pledged to toss a tenner your way.

when will there be a vote?

What about newsposter?

I agree with Hbombrguy (though he probably hates us), Marxist Media, Bakto, and badmouse (though he definatly hates us) but socials or barbarism is pretty cringy and muke is fucking retarded.

"Its an…. 'Interesting' statue shaped like pretty much what the name suggests"

Thanks, user! This is definitely a big help.

I was actually thinking about this. Since nobody has been charged yet, we could have the first vote either here or on Twitter or something. Alternatively, I could just set up the poll on Patreon right now, but that wouldn't really be fair to people who decide to contribute later on this month. Let me know what you guys think.

...

how will you verify us as contributors on here or twitter? just curious. also you could begin a poll or discussion too about it and get a final tally at the end of the month.

What I meant was that I would make the first poll available to everyone since nobody has been charged yet, meaning we could get started earlier. I'm not sure how the Patreon polling works, but I'll check it out.

okay sounds good friendo

Yeah, seems like I can set the poll to end at any time. However, I just realized we'll need a second poll to determine more specifics. For example, if people decide to send a medal, we need a second poll to decide who to send it to. Or if people decide on a giveaway, we need to decide what we're going to give away.

In the end I think I'll just set up a poll here so everyone can vote. Then next month when people have actually been charged, then all future polls will be patron-only. Anyone know any good polling sites?

I can not really think of something that would be able to prevent active rigging so I would say a straw poll is probably fine to just hash out some ideas.

Is there a way I can support Holla Forums and Getchan in any way?
I'm from Mexico but I'm banned from all banks and from owning credit cards btw.

debit, with paypal.

uhh I pass since I'm saving. What has that Chan done through?

Give some links to it's music, I want to see if it's good while I read.

Will do.

It always helps if you can get the word out.

-Several giveaways, the biggest of which was a GETchan-themed mousepad giveaway. (Wish I had pictures, but I don't, sorry.)

-A medals program for people with outstanding achievements, of which we've awarded six regular medals and ten special anniversary medals that were available to anyone as more of a giveaway. Only one medal has been given to someone from Holla Forums so far, though, which was the Catgirl Drawfriend.

-Had several posters made, including friendship propaganda posters between our two chans.

-Had the anthems of GETchan, Holla Forums, and Bunkerchan sung by actual choirs, which you can find links to on the Patreon page.

You can find everything in the OP.

Poll is up. Everyone vote!
