why make the pinkie swear promise that no d&d mod will ever moderate cspam again instead of like, just moving cspam so d&d can't moderate it. seems pretty easy to do even on the broke rear end forums software

the ppj puppet master mod illuminati is overblown but at the same time i just dont see what the purpose of keeping cspam here is if it isn't to let him do the thing admins promised he won't do anymore.

i just want the leftist forum to keep existing, and so far admins dont want to grant even the most petty of requests that users here have. actually, i guess they did change the subforum name.

i dont care about cspam being a subforum but it is very annoying that nobody on the mod team seems to agree what, exactly, this forum is for. it was supposed to be the election chat crew thread forum, which is an insanely bad idea for a subforum and its obviously evolved past that. but answers seem to vary wildly.

it's a communist forum managed by people who would roll their eyes and go "I'd rather not discuss politics" when it's brought up

its a politics poo poo posting forum. i don't really see why it needs to be anything more than this. just because its a poo poo posting forum doesn't mean effort posts aren't wanted much like they were in LF like the prison thread.

the fact it happens to be leftist at the minute is because of the posters more than anything else because its not strictly a leftist forum nor personally do i think it should be much as I like it being one

Given that it's so trivial, it's also somewhat baffling that the mods care enough to insist on maintaining the status quo for no clear reason.

CSPAM ended up being a left wing forum by pure historical circumstance, which was all the Hillarymen posters eating crow and leaving a sucking void that we filled up with our posting coom

cspam should absolutely be top level as the most active forum. i know some ppl don’t think it matters but it seems to just be basic forums upkeep and an acknowledgement of changing circumstances. keeping it a subforum makes it seem like no one is at the wheel or bothering to give a gently caress about making the UI reflect reality. it’s symbolic but important enough, and simple to do

I find it hard to interpret as anything other than contempt for CSPAM which is I suspect at least partially motivated by the fact that its ancestor, LF, was a source of legal grief for Lowtax

Like, for instance, it is a fact that what most of us in this thread want, communist revolution, is not exactly a legal undertaking. it's only in a place like CSPAM that there is an ideological home for a communist thread. I can understand the administrator of a website maybe wanting to bury that a little.

The cspammers disdain to conceal their views and aims. They openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing posting conditions. Let the admins tremble at a cspam revolution. The posters have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a forum to win.
