i have absolutely no context to this situation and i haven't seen the thread but there are ways to make shill threads and there are not ways to shill threads
making 'informational' posts like "EYA GUYS COME JOINA ME ON CIVCRAFT ITS A POLITICAL SERVER THIS IS WHAT ITS LIKE :))))))))))) ) is not the way to get people to join and just gets deleted and viewed as an advertisement
to make shill threads you need to be subtle, for instance if you're making a thread on /v/ just simply make a minecraft nostalgia thread, then make a post asking if there are any /v/ servers, then mention civcraft in reply, then just let the thread evolve naturally
ill find the links to threads ive made in the past that were succesful ill even commentate on the posts and tell you which posts were samefag and which werent, also it helps if you have multiple people doing this and playing different roles. have the op, then have the 'shill' and have a few random idiots who also keep the thread going, dont just have one person samefagging or else it will get noticed by the mods and get deleted
if its on /pol/ or something you could easily do it with 2 or 3 people just post a thread saying "are there any /pol/ minecraft servers" or "does /pol/ play minecraft"? and let it evolve from there, dont instantly mention civcraft either let the thread naturally evolve and then have a rush of different people talking abour civcraft, the op image doesnt even have to be from civcraft it could just be a googled image of some nazi shit in minecraft, it helps if its not from civcraft honestly
anyways my second point is please get over your fucking US VS THEM mentality about 4chan vs 8chan
versailles, viridian, akihabara, and FAGT are all from 4chan and this stupid divide just limits the people we can advertise to, advertise on 4chan and 8chan it literally doesnt matter, stop this stupid shit about ONLY WANTING people from 8chan. just because /civ/ is on 8chan doesnt mean Chanada is an 8chan nation, it's not. its a *chan nation and was originally a 4chan nation only, not 8chan, despite the board being hosted on 8chan, this gamergate meme has gone too far
