>>4498 >>4508 nah minimum 45 zoinkazillions

>>4404 have you tried >>2091 It does have some problems but it's better than using the mobile browser

>>4376 Welcome to r/communism, comrade.

>>4376 The mods are butthurt boomers

how do I post on /dead/?

>>4376 this is a fucking joke. How are we supposed to develop an online presence if it is actively suppressed?

>>4389 By coming up with better jokes

>>4326 Also, FYI: In my experience with image-boards it is the other-way around. Posting with mods flags and admin tags, etc, is not common practice and is shunned in most instances. As for the flags, sorry, man. I don't think any one wants more flags. Most people I have seen barely want the ones we have now. People use them to construct identities. We just refuse to remove them because they are part of our culture since the dawn of leftypol.

nothing better to do so may as well >>4322 >vol here. Thanks for the feedback. It's very unfortuante that you feel no trust in the mod team. I should specify I trust the vols a bit more than the mods because they are more "connected" to the broader board politics than the mods feel to be, and seem to do most of the legwork besides. >We do take user input, it's very hard to gauge what the general user sentiment is because there are conflicting opinions. But we read them and discuss them. That would be news to literally everyone tbh, even on this pyongyang issue we were never informed of the nature or severity of it until it was thankfully leaked, with the best we got as a warning beforehand a spoopy-ass warning to have the bunker onhand. Meanwhile /GET/ had publically talked about the issue with its userbase and warned them that there was a rogue mod issuing and lifting bans without any mandate from the existing structures of power like, a week or two before /leftypol/ mods were practically forced to acknowledge it. What gain was there in suppressing this information of an actual, imminent threat to site security and the affairs of the board? What was the contingency going to be if space decided to nuke the site, or pyongyang went on a spree of deleting threads? we were basically allowed to be sheep free for the slaughter by being wholly uninformed of what was happening internally to no tangible end. >I'd encourage you to apply for volunteer TBH I think I already know in what direction that will go. There are simply a few mods who hold views that are not only contradictory, but irreconcilable with the political body of myself, but also likely a good deal of the userbase. The problems of the ideological gap between different users - and especially moderators, always ensures that any left unity is tenuous, because as always there is no real communication between moderation and the wider community. Trust is something that is earned through open and equal communication between people, and with the current state of things there isn't any communication, any mediation, or really any solidarity between moderation and the userbase. All left ideologies, from meme-tier egoists to ancoms to MLs and more, emphasize the important of organization and communication not just in the actions of a party-structure, but in all left action as a function of solidarity between proletariat. As-is, we fail at the first hurdle in being an effective left community.

>>4325 >The issue with the incels, reactionaries, really any one acting nefariously is once you start cracking down on the obvious ones then they retreat into being more nebulous and vague. Then it is better to allow for the community to counter the reactionaries than to allow them to go around freely. Right now the moderation still follows an ML-style organization as was mandated by the old BO, except without an actual party line to enforce on the underlying "party members" in the posters. So you have a lot of cases of mods deleting one post or another over an offense they take to the post which gets lifted by another mod when they check over the appeal, which just leaves the impression of nobody knowing what they are doing. you either need to adopt a cohesive line and publish it for the wider posting group to see so as to enforce an actual policy over the board or you need to rapidly democratize the moderation powers to more and more vols who can act as a check against each other, where enough of the common poster is present as moderation so as to better reflect the community values in the moderation enforcement. this wishy-washy center we have right now is just barely operable when it is needed. >I don't know if this is because everyone resides on one time zone or we still don't have enough mods or what is really going on. No offense but you need to audit yourselves and see who is doing what when and get an idea of time coverages. do you all even have a central authority figure to conduct anything? >This post is just too defeatist This is fair, I was retarded and uninformed.

>>4315 >>4315

>>4322 >>4325 You're not listening. That poster also touched on some things I've been saying for a while now. But those are the things you don't respond to. All you talk about is your moderation style, how you do this, how you do that, how you ban incels, no one cares about your individual perspective, you liberals. We're talking about systemic issues with the running of the site. This site would not improve even if we got the best, kindest mods ever that still didn't listen to user input. How do you not understand this? Which part of "more democratic decision-making" are you struggling with? >>4315 >we've never really created a new, community wide overarching goal >>4316 >are we supposed to be sticking to our chan-era roots, taking a reformist angle and becoming more pan-leftist, or fucking what? Exactly what I had said in the /leftypol/ mod thread, Comatoast's answer was that /leftypol/ is everything at once. >>4316 >recently there has been a bit of a perception of the moderation having a faster trigger finger when it comes to comrades than they do against reactionaries and spammers again, something I've said. It's really easy to see a person's post history, isn't it? You can literally tell if the person is a leftist or what their motivations are, but you seem to just judge in the moment. Do you not understand how to a /pol/ tourist that doesn't matter (because, among other things, they expect that response) but to someone who has been on /leftypol/ for a long time it gets annoying as fuck. >>4315 >this ends up having literally about everyone disliking the moderation as a force for their own specific reasons, which in turn erodes any perception of moderation acting with any kind of popular support, which makes the entire mod team seem more like tyrants than community managers Again, something I've written about. You don't involve the user base enough. You had an opportunity to run a poll for the roulette board, you couldn't even do that. If you want the users to trust you more then you have to trust the users and not assume that every poster is a wrecker in disguise.

/overthread/ when? I'm tired of needing to look into every thread separately. Just show me all the new posts at once

An /overcatalog/ would make it even better. Also this >>4336

>>4336 How would something like that even work? Lol.

>>4334 No, anon. You're based. Thank you for being so based.

>>4237 isn't really shitting up the thread if it is on GETchan the dedicated shitposting board on the thread /leftytrash/ where everyone just posts shitposts and blog updates anyways. Also, I couldn't stand the bullying from the mod on GETchan, the psycologist, and the tranny there anyways. (I guess that warrants a permaban from the whole website to you) Second of all this shit did not happen on /leftytrash/ before the exodus and the banter was normal behavior on that thread which I guess apparently became unacceptable when it moved to GETchan. Again this is on GETchan not any other board. Again as I've stated before I wanted to get banned from GETchan and not the whole website. Another thing, if this was a leftypol mod that banned me then why are you showing posts on GETchan? didn't GETchan and leftypol have no jurisdiction over each other. Your story doesn't add up. >the flag was only their for you in the first place So why does more than one person use tomoko or usagi, cerno, or any number of other flags on the site. Flags arn't restricted per person. I'll hold up my part of the bargan and refuse to post on >>/GET/ until late November and read up on theory. I'm just asking that the powers that reside on this website to hold up their obligation and allow me to post on board other than >>/GET/ and stop deleting stuff I post on other boards.

>>4241 >(I guess that warrants a permaban from the whole website to you) I was one o the few people opposed to the permaban. That's why I have pics like this on my PC

>>4243 Thank you for sticking out for me.

>>4245 Just remember If you don't namefag and if you behave yourself. The mods can't ban you for ban evasion.

Sometimes spam filters catch IPs that people are actually using. Our hosting ssrvice is cloudflair and they are well known with their levels of suckage. I'll talk to space about your situation and see what we can do. Sorry about this.

>>4208 Using a VPN?

>>4208 The original thread about reparations was full of white-knight sectarian radlibs, thus your continuation of the thread may have been seen as spam or shilling.

>>4219 Not as far as I'm aware of. My apartment might have one in place to bypass this countries internet censorship. I can check if I still have problems once I'm back home in the next few weeks. Btw, I'm posting from my phone cus I'm now getting the message "your ip was recognized as a known spammer" on this board too >4220 Point taken

>>4014 You must be so cool and edgy, how is middle school going tranny? Do your fellow schoolmates have problems accepting your transition.

>>4022 I'm not the poster you're replying to but what do you think of this idea >>4017

>>4023 It's actually a good idea, thank you. Been doing "fine" these two days. This is offtopic and you probably don't care but I am going to publicly state anyway (long): I actually want to thank the admins and space for providing this platform for free and keeping it free from posters from pol, I know that sometimes I acted like an asshole and people that recognised my posts thought I was a provocateur. I know that after my "sperg out" it sounds like I hate them but I don't I understand their paranoia because this place is filled with polfag shitposts and co-opts. I am fucking insane beyond salvation and I the first one to recognise it, I lack may lack certain amount of self awareness but not enough self awareness to understand that crying myself to sleep at 8 AM and being addicted to receive hate from internet dwellers (my only social interaction) is not normal nor good for me. Before killing myself I may try moving to the woods and accept that my autism has sentenced me to permanent social isolation, at this point I couldn't care less about self-preservation, everyone but me has a sixth sense and I feel like I am blind and I am constantly tripping over, and somehow it's custom to point and laugh as I trip But again thank you Space and hot pockets, please don't hate me too much. TLDR: Goodbye lol. Unironically wish you the best.

>>4009 Well if you don't want to be involved in politics the problem is you at least to a degree. I personally don't dislike you though if you're who I think you are. I wish you where more political and a bit less emotional, but you are way less annoying then some anons take /leftypol/ itself super seriously. My investment in /leftypol/ is also emotional. The difference I guess is that I genuinely enjoy my time on this board and look back pretty fondly at old threads. Something about seeing OC come together in real time I find gratifying. Before /leftypol/ my board was /lit/ so I got to watch the Max Stiner meme develop from it's infancy. Nowadays I'll get sent memes by real world friends that I saw posted as OC when I was a teenager. Something about that feels kinda beautiful. Like I got to play a behind the scenes part in bringing something funny (and occasionally profound) into the public conciousness. The dopamine hit is real; I am also a smoker, and I still snort cocaine but what really keeps me coming back is the good memories.

Buy a dog.

>>4169 Use the fucking report function. He's been banned many times.

>>4170 I just don't get how you can't handle that guy, block his whole VPN or ISP range for like a week or a month if it's necessary, yet you're fine with permanently blocking all of Tor, which is a much much larger user base than some single VPN or ISP, it's probably just one user.

>>4171 I'm sorry I can't help you with the Tor issue, I'm not one of the few tech guys we have. I only know the situation is being looked into (for me posting with Tor browser works fine). Maybe I should try out range bans, that's an idea.

>>4172 >for me posting with Tor browser works fine Tor is permanently banned only on /leftypol/, it works fine on other boards. To be specific the ban does not explicitly refer to Tor but to "ASN 23664" (ban id "5e372da2342eb133900d2012") which seems to cover almost all of Tor exit nodes for some reason. Might be related to CloudFlare? Anyway, hopefully someone from tech team can fix this.

>>4174 I loaded up a vm and was able to post through the onion browser, but, last time I tried to post through privoxy I was unsuccessful. Maybe it doesn't work correctly unless you are using the browser? I mean, cloud-flair is pretty fucky.

>>4159 >ban got appealed *appeal got approved

You were banned for reactionary cloaking. Calling them jews like that is clearly a violation of rule 3.

>>4163 That is retarded. Reactionary cloaking means trying to hide reactionary beliefs in left wing rhetoric ei. strasserism, nazbol bullshit, etc. Calling the voices of the hosts of chapo "whiny jew voices" is not reactionary cloaking! It is simply using "jew" in a way that is derogatory. You don't have to like it, but if you're gonna allow racial slurs on your board I don't see how you can reasonably draw the line at "jew".

>>4189 Jews are white and blacks aren’t, therefore saying niggers is okay but not any Jew jokes. Just don’t say anything that would upset a little pussy on /pol/ and you’ll be fine.

>>4189 Calling them jews has nothing to do with it, rather, it is calling them jews in a way that implies that jews are some kind of structural issue. If you don't think that comes off as pol level nonsense than need to reevaluate. >>4190 Trying to lie will help nothing.
