Moderation Questions and General Chat Thread

Moderation Questions and General Chat Thread

The last iteration of the moderation discussion thread was a complete disaster. Numerous attempts to keep it on topic failed, and it became a general discussion thread with almost no moderation related posts at all. And those that were posted were so buried in non-mod posts that it became a huge time drain on the mods to sort through them. Then, when off topic posts were deleted posters complained about that.

This led to the closing of the mod discussion thread, replaced by the post report/pm approach. This has filtered out lots of noise, but has resulted at times in the General Discussion Thread turning into a quasi-mod thread. This is not desirable, but going back to the old mod thread is also not a workable option.

Therefore, I have created this new moderation thread, but with a different purpose and ground rules than previous mod threads. The purpose of this thread is to provide a place for posters to pose questions to the mods about how policies are applied; to bring to the mods attention posts they think are inappropriate and reach the level of requiring mod action; and for mods to communicate to posters things like changes or clarifications to policies, bannings, etc.

Now let me tell you what this thread is NOT a place for. It is not for nonmoderation related posts, even if the discussion originates from a comment in in a mod related post. It is not for posters to post their opinions about other posters or whether a poster should be banned. It is not to rehash past grievances about mod decisions from months or years ago. The focus of this thread will be recent posts that require action now. Or questions about current policies and enforcement.

So basically, this is a thread to ask mods questions. Which means, pretty much that only mods should be answering those questions. If a poster asks why a particular post was deleted or allowed, only a mod can answer that. Everyone else who wants to jump in with their opinion or their mod war story needs to stay out of it. It just increases the noise to signal ratio and does nothing to answer the question.

Everyone needs to understand that this thread has very different rules than the old mod thread and any other thread. Any non-moderation post will be deleted on sight. Not moved to the appropriate thread, just deleted. So don't waste your time crafting a masterpiece post about wars or transgender issues or the presidential election and then post it in this thread. It will be gone. Also, this isnt a thread for general commentary about our mods performance. Posting "browser sucks as a mod" or any such posts that don't actually ask about a policy or request a mod action will be deleted. Everyone is entitled to their opinion about the moderation of this forum. But this thread isnt for complaining about mods. You are free to go to the ATF forum and make your concerns about modding in this forum there.

So with that intro, this thread is open for those who need to bring questions about mod policies or bring inappropriate posts to the mods attention. Again, it is NOT a thread for group discussions about other posters or for other posters to answer questions directed to mods.

We'll see how this goes. If you have what you feel is an open issue raised in the General Discussion Thread, please copy that post or otherwise reintroduce the issue here.

Thanks.

you didn't answer the question and instead just moved the goal post - nobody here was talking about what she did after she sucked an 80 year old dick - they were talking about whether she sucked that dick for the love of the game or to advance her career


If I'm right that this line of conversation started with discussion of lozen's ban, then yes, that appears to be precisely what he was implying:

by lozen P

Very good take on it lets not forget that Tulsi Gabbard destroyed her in the debate . They knew she was going to be the candidate 1 hour after the debate . Lets also add she made her career jumps on her knees, Though Trump will not go there yet either

I heard she has never been to Europe and that is why the border czar never went to the border after saying we have been to the border


And the saddest part is that even after the ban, he hasn't figured out the difference between discussing Vance's sex life and suggesting Harris got where she is because of sex.


trust me, if vance got places banging couches or mayors in their 80s, i got a hunch we'd be talking about that as well


by rickroll P

i mean, does anyone actually think she was dating a powerful man 50 years her senior who just coincidentally managed to jump start her career by accident?

I assume you are referring to then Speaker of the California State Assembly Willie Brown, who dated Kamala Harris openly in the mid-90s when he was 60 and she was 29.

Not an 80-year-old man, and not a 50-year age gap.

We would be but it only got him sofa.


You guys are quite naive if you think men who wear eyeliner in politics aren’t giving up a lil sumn sumn to get where they are. The RNC overloaded Grindr for godssakes


He wears eyeliner, a beard, and has a hint of the gay in his voice.

Are you guys blind?


Regarding if women use sex to further their careers/wealth? The history of men says they do.


In fact, my lesbian “auntie” told me one of the worst if not the worst thing women do is use men / take advantage of men for their money.

She then goes on to tell me how my mom said she was gonna bag an old rich guy by losing two sizes and riding a bike around the professors offices. My auntie then says “I know that this happened because I bought her the pants”


So yeah, everything in this world points to the fact that women are beautiful and they are often treated with extra handling in care in the hope that some of that beauty is shared amongst us ugly men

There was a wonderful study done during Covid that showed a 25% drop in hot girls grades across the board once zoom classrooms were enacted.


Shocking

Don’t get me started on the lol k Cupid stats


Some truly disturbing stuff. Thanks guys 😀


I see PW is bringing some more of his hot takes about how women have it easy because men want to **** them.

PW and lozen should start a little support group to comfort each other about the fact that everyone else is gettin' laid. Reach out across the political divide and embrace your similarities, guys!


Attractive men and attractive women have it easier. Care to debate?


Is it disturbing that women use men for their resources? Yes and no.

No and no.


Very important deep thoughts itt.


These guys are not beating the "weird" allegations.


I forgot this is the delulu land

Why do women get 10% of the jail time that men get for the same crimes?

In aggregate? Probably because only 10% as many of them commit them.

My number was way off. Women get 25% lighter sentences. Let me see if I can find the study that said 10%. It mighta been for blondes

TL;DR.


your aunt sounds totally normal and well adjusted, must run in the family

She’s not my blood aunt hence the auntie

I dunno she could be wrong

Do you guys think men take advantage of women financially in relationships? They certainly do physically and violently , and in the workplace as well.

Hey, you guys remember that time that Robocop shot that guy in the dick?


Less discussion of womens privilege and more Penthouse Letters in the dating thread


by d2_e4 P

A prime example of vaginal privilege.


by PointlessWords P

Shocking. The 10% number sounded totally plausible and you are notoriously reliable when it comes to things like the facts.


why would you talk to someone who just spends her time insulting your mother?


by d2_e4 P

Dude that was sick.


by d2_e4 P

It's a poser.


This just shows how horrific Biden was as a candidate and how easily it is to influence the weak minded liberals. This is nothing more than an all in marketing campaign to make people feel like Harris is the one. Eventually people will wake up and realize she has zero qualifications to be President. You people are being duped hard and easily falling for it.

Ah, qualifications to be president. Remind me again the qualifications that Trump has to be president, will ya? Is this the part where you tell us how smart, funny and physically fit he is, mong? Or maybe you can tell us more about how a second Trump presidency is going to usher in a new era of morality and family values.
