Smarxist the rhizzone has a superior aesthetic to your website can you spice up the presentation a little bit? You don't have to do rhizzone's psudo-hipserrunnoff look but something to give the site an identify beyond "SA offsite".

we have a whole custom theme being built right now but its gonna take a week or so to complete, this is just xenforo's theme with some color and other tweaks

i'm also trying to recruit jonny290 to make yospos style sheets to harbor the yosposters who are dipping

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

the stylesheet is a bit plain, take some inspiration from the special stylesheets that some subs here have had, maybe pink-based because the name is "bread and roses" and there and white and red roses (white + red = pink)

it's honestly open wilderness imo

i think institutional level soc media and timeline soc media have hit their limits and there won't be another "flavor of the month" style site like how livejournal begat facebook begat myspace begat twitter begat etc. etc.

i think there's a kinda diaspora happening where people want more control over the community and more inclusiveness to their ideals/principles, and I think forums have ALWAYS fostered that better than timeline social media, so that's kinda where we're at

what comes next? I DUNNO! whatever the community wants, whatever good ideas people have that others agree with to the point that we can implement them.

lastgirl had a fun idea for a posting PVP thunderdome, where you can debate funny situations or serious topics and use your posting prowess to convince the crowd to declare you the winner, we might do poo poo like that

edit:
i also think the zoomers are just going to be funneled inexorably into nihilistic style "i'm the star and the brand!" type end-game neoliberal identity acceleration poo poo like tiktok

It's only been up for like, a day. And it already looks great imho. Style is not a top priority but it's being worked on as I understand it.

Pink would be a problematic color as a style sheet for obvious reasons IMO, and would doom the forum with the original sin of irony.

Hi mods, please ban me you bootlicking thugs!

I love CSPAM and because of that I'm doing my best to save it from the completely lovely junkyard that it sprang from before the literal child-brained owner flushes either the community here, or the entire website down the toilet

the events that occurred on the night of the stream with the "livebans" were really beyond the pale and basically killed any appetite I had to post here or spend money here, at the behest of a nazi chud peanut gallery, a man in his 40's banned some of my favorite people from their favorite place and seriously upset them, if you can countenance that poo poo, be my guest

i've been workin' hard (thank you!) to capture as many disaffected, displaced and banned posters as I can, and have literally hundreds trickling into the new hotness.

so come check us out!

if you register with your SA account name, I can track you down and approve you (we're doing manual approvals for now) and you can come check out the new joint, which despite being a work in progress is already REALLY loving solid.

if you can't be bothered, or if all of this is "dumb online bullshit" or you don't care, then I bid you good posting friend, it was nice making content with you!

also it's important to post goatse

I like to post, so some of my posts don't have much substance.

Well my thoughts are that I don't understand why you're being so antagonistic about all this.

i'll have you know i'm not a nazi, if you're referring to the 88 in my username, it's because when I registered "Nova" was already taken, and I took the lazy route to make it unique by adding numbers on, and I genuinely didn't know about the negative connotations at the time cause I was only like 15 and politically naive.

if you can think of a better username feel free to buy me one, i'm not thrilled about it either. Same with the avatar, it's a lame gamer one from the same era.
