There's not like a forum post per day quota that needs to be met. The trump thread appears to be quite poor, based on secondhand accounts, and I can attest that the Glenn thread is now dominated by "the type of people we can only talk about in the Glenn thread" posting pictures of their cats. I would be in favor of both threads being removed from the left-wing politics forum.

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.

BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC



PROPOSAL

The C-SPAM People's Moderation Oversight Committee Forum (or something to that effect)

Description:
A C-SPAM subforum where the people of C-SPAM can review, and propose moderator action and discuss other C-SPAM issues.

Benefits:
- It would declutter many threads in C-SPAM that turn into QCS occasionally.

- It would allow the C-SPAM moderators to get feedback without having to dig through various threads.

- It would also allow people who do not want to deal with the QCS reactionaries and concern trolls to bring their concerns to the C-SPAM moderation staff and the broader C-SPAM community directly.

As Jackie Chan said (paraphrased)

"If we don't support our forum, who supports our forum?

We know that our forum has many problems. We should only discuss them among ourselves. In front of other forums, 'C-SPAM is the best!' "

You can deik Majorian? There have been several times where people are discussing things and he just steps on it despite there being nothing else going on in the thread.

I guess to tie this into a feedback point, please rotate iks frequently. There always seem to be a case where the tone of people's posts changes when they get a star. Don't think it's good for both posters or the thread when someone becomes like that. Inceltown got very defensive of the CSPAM pics thread, and Majorian is becoming the same way in the Ukraine thread.

Technically I don't have that authority, but I could make it happen if I called in some favors. I would never do that, though, because Major Ian is a dear friend of mine and an excellent IK. The only scenario in which I can see him losing that status is either a promotion or a premature end to the Ukraino-Russian Conflict.

In a meta-posting as praxis mindset, I must disagree with this proposal. Representation in the grand arena where un-like-minded posters will see and make fun of your posts is vital to the image of CSPAM and to yourself as a hardened poster. Get the gently caress outta here don't want to deal with the concern trolls, this sort of self cloistering does not create a health posting environment and such thread usually end up counter productive for the purposes of maintaining posting purity. Gotta find out how dumb the other posters are and put all that SYQ shadowboxing to use.

Ripping myself out of that cursed mindset now: lmao. Man hosting your own QCS subforums really, roflmao nah dude just post regular. This is some dsa bullshit busywork get the gently caress outta here

You can run an IK content. It'd be quite fun to see all the various personalities CSPAM has to offer run this place.

it sucks but sometimes people just mean "i miss that guy and want to post with them again" without really wanting to examine what happened. usually if they do something really heinous it gets shamed away but in some cases people keep it going, particularly if they felt the circumstances weren't fair or something. people are strange and goons even stranger.

if they had gotten rid of the stupid attention addict who vlogged while driving and showed off a knife while vlogging at his elementary school job sooner, the doxxing probably wouldn't have happened, but i guess that would have required moderators to go "oh, this person is an unfunny drama tumor, maybe we should get rid of him"

but nope, have to wait for him to vlog triumphant having bested the object of his harassment, and then advise him to stop vlogging about posters, and oh whoops he went and vlogged again, now we can push the button

i hate that i had to type the word vlog so many times

The extent to the doxing was sealed up right quick by the mods. It was p extra if I remember the second hand reposting lore going around that weekend. Like actually called Eifel's boss and broke that sacred seal.

Like I get it conceptually and principle-like. But also Alec was quite possibly the easiest and most enticing man to dox these forums have ever seen. Also he gone now so wut
