This is a thread for giving feedback and complaints about moderation actions.
Because there are so many new Volunteers right now, we are bound to hit a few bumps in the next week or so. If you see a thread deleted or moderated in a way that you think is unfair, please post ITT, preferably with evidence or a detailed description of it. This won't guarantee a reversal, but it will help bring it to my attention. Volunteers who turn out to be repeat offenders and refuse to learn will have their accounts removed. You can also monitor our actions here:
https://8ch.net/log.php?board=leftypol
https://8ch.net/bans.html
As well, Volunteers who can't decide what to do about something should post ITT to get feedback before acting.

So I never get a straight answer that all vols are held to.
Are race and genetics threads banned?
Modern science, as much as it needs to tiptoe around race, does not deny varied genes across the world.
Last several threads I've made on this were bump locked I'm short order.
When I asked about it in here and posted within the saged thread, the catalog started shifting older threads on top with short inane bump posts.
Just like Christians and Atheists should hold an open dialogue so should idealists hold dialogue with scientists
I make sane and rational threads and reply to them in kind. I don't mind the occasional banter from genetics denialists, it makes for lively discussion.
When power tripping mods close or lock, sometimes delete, threads it sets a childish and silly precedent.
Right now there are zero finds with the word race or the word gene on the catalog. It was the same when I made my threads so it was hardly a multiple thread issue.
I don't come on forums to talk with 1 or 2 people that might scroll down on a catalog. It is irrational to treat race and genes topics this way.

This is a pretty big issue for /leftypol/. It looks like a /leftypol/ vol trying to sweep a rape case under the rug due to the race of the perpetrator. By banning and censoring the issue, this vol is no better than people who act like women are "asking for it", no better than those who seek to silence and shame victims.
Censoring this is rape culture. We're supposed to be better than that on /leftypol/, and I think we all want to hear an explanation as to why the vols are now defending rapists.

?____?
yeah it's clear he's from /pol/ and dicking around to make a point of the hypocrisy among commie circlejerkers but even so you haven't remotely given a reason why its not relevant to discuss the suppression of an unimaginable number of rapes in sweden surpassing every other country on earth which even the most hardcore tumblrite cant deny is a result of the ridiculous numbers of muslims immigrating from countries where rape is acceptable.
I guess you can disagree with the semantics of that statement even though they're pretty objective with the common statistic floating around /pol/ is 100% of rapes committed in norway in 2013 were done by immigrants and 9/10 were committed against native women (I'll admit i haven't bothered to verify this since only a norwegian could really tell what websites are legit sources and what are the equivalent of dailystormer,no).
but I rambled on about /pol/ shit again, what I really want to understand is how the increasing swedish trend of going as far as to punish teenage girls and their families for being raped and refusing to prosecute the rapist in question or giving them insultingly light sentences and suppressing it with the outlandish claim of racism does not relate to the leftist political topics of feminism and racism?
you say you aren't sweeping it under the rug and here you are brushing it off by claiming its SWEDEN YES shit when you clearly know thats a blatant fucking lie.
i think one last important fact is it's not just swedish pol tier tabloids reporting on this problem, even the swedish state funded propaganda papers have reported on multiple cases of this, often victim blaming and showing the mentality of the extreme radical left present in swedish society.
I'm sure it's obvious that I'm a /pol/ memer myself but I'm not really here to subvert or shitpost, I'd genuinely like to understand why this isn't seen as an issue relevant to lefty politics.
if you really believe the swedish violent crime issue isn't relevant to this board, surely the oppressive behavior like this conducted within northern european leftist parties is relevant and worth discussion.
tldr; absurd number of rapes take place in sweden, the criminals arent fairly prosecuted and the victims are bullied into keeping quiet by authority figures because some stupid bullshit about racism.
while the types of western leftists seen on this board believe rape culture, womens rights, victim shaming etc in america are still huge problems demanding large scale social media campaigns and protests, they seem to show no interest in what i think could much more accurately be called rape culture, a culture where rape is entirely acceptable and its seen the woman's fault.

Its relatively small board and kind slow at that, you can constantly bump a shitpost thread, and then make more shitpost threads and constantly bump them.

No.455699
>>455646
Well I don't know what you're banning them for specifically, but from what I've seen it's one of two things happening: Either you're letting their e-fame influence your decisions nonetheless by taking more notice of anything they post even when at the worst it is still relatively good compared to most of the other posts this board gets (are you also banning people who are posting one-sentence threads?), or you're just banning everyone who avatarfags.
If its the latter - and I haven't seen azusa or karowu lately so I'm lead to believe that - then it's not really a bannable offense to begin with. A minority of people are actually bothered with the avatarfagging, and even so it's about as bannable as tripfagging. Tripfags are generally tolerated unless they're deliberate shitposters who are singling themselves out by posting with a tripcode. But the tripfags haven't been banned.
If it's the former, then my point speaks for itself. I haven't seen Yui post anything shitposty, especially compared to the majority of posts this board has been getting. And even so Yui is obviously a genuine poster here who has been here awhile and is far less deserving of a ban than most of the people who post here. If you've also been banning everyone else then fair enough.

What posts are you referring to, and also this >>455861
Unless Yui was just shitposting really badly (which I find hard to believe but I could be wrong), it really seems to me like you're (consciously or not) targeting Yui because they're more visible than your average shitposter of comparable quality. It would be much better for the board as a whole to be banning or at least saging/deleting the threads/posts of the less-active shitposters and general idiots than banning our good posters who have been here for awhile (especially fucking monthlong bans) because of some incidental shitposting.
I don't see how you can blame Yui for shitposting here anyways when the board has as of late been pretty much ignoring the good posts because people can't stop getting rused and taking bait. I've been less-inclined to put effort into my posts as of late because of how shitty the catalog is and because most of the time my good posts will be ignored.

No.468084

I disagree. Enforcing such a thing in a place like 8chan, where many come from 4chan is a bad idea, since many people from inside the board and outside the board call each other faggots, retards or autists everyday. It is not necessary but it has nothing wrong unless things devolve into insulting each other without arguing anything. This board only has the rules of the site, things have to follow the US law, and the obvious no shitposting or spamming.
Lainchan is a completely different board with a different userbase where most users probably are accustomed already to not insulting each other needlessly.
TLDR: Adding such a rule is completely unnecessary and will result in people who either browse the board or are newcomers getting banned for dumb reasons, which will gain the board a reputation as a safe space.

Consider the fact that you posted that same exact thread multiple times. It was anchored at least twice, the first one because of the baseless nature of the arguments brought in defense of the OP. The second because you insisted on making a new thread before the original was dead. The others that came after were straight up deleted. If you were just interested in actual discussion, you would have just continued in the initial thread despite being bumplocked. Instead, you HAD to have front page with your unsourced shitpost.
I'm obviously cautious about having mods that are too heavy-handed, and that thread COULD have been civil. Instead, you made no attempt to approach the topic with any degree of intellectual integrity and shot for primal emotional response.

So yeah, I don't like doing this, but as socialists it is our duty to criticize bureaucracy (especially if it's ours) so, boom… I was wondering about two things concerning my recent and unjustified ban.
1) Does comrade hotpockets not GET the guidelines BO laid down? "Leftist shitposting is OK." (I believe this covers this as well >>567081 ) NVM, that in my appeal I made it clear that it wasn't an attempt at shitposting (I was trying to find the 566666 get and hit post by accident before I could rewrite the digits), but I don't think that this could be qualified as shitposting in any ways. If there's no clear intent ("jews did 911" ; "leninists are stupid") behind a post then your interpretation of it as hotpockets isn't any more objective than a rock's. Leave the anomalies alone, is what I'm saying.
2) This is my second unjustified ban. The first one was with the "zizek wew" meme, one of the first ban by the freshly set up volunteer team, I got then 1 month, and it's refreshing that now it's only 1 day, although I'd be really pissed of as a one of the most active members to be barred from Super Tuesday. My question: was it the same hotpockets that banned me then who banned me now? If so can it be noted by BO, please? Because if it's the same person, and it happens for a third time, I'm going to put it to you all: it's either s/he gets kicked out of the mod team, or I leave the site.

>The Genetic Distance between an Homo sapiens (of European descent) and an Homo erectus is 0.17

>A Chimpanzee, compared to a Bonobo varies from 0.05-0.2 (mtDNA) and 0.49-0.68 (aDNA).
So, we're closer to the Homo neanderthalensis and Homo erectus than to the Negro.
TWO DIFFERENT species of Gorillas and Chimps are closer genetically from one another than Europeans are from Africans
We can be from the same Homo genealogy, but we're different sub-species, that's a given to anyone.

>Similarly, biological anthropologist Jonathan Marks agrees with Edwards that correlations between geographical areas and genetics obviously exist in human populations, but goes on to note that "What is unclear is what this has to do with 'race' as that term has been used through much in the twentieth century - the mere fact that we can find groups to be different and can reliably allot people to them is trivial. Again, the point of the theory of race was to discover large clusters of people that are principally homogeneous within and heterogeneous between, contrasting groups. Lewontin's analysis shows that such groups do not exist in the human species, and Edwards' critique does not contradict that interpretation."[6]
>The view that while geographic clustering of biological traits does exist this does not lend biological validity to racial groups was proposed by several evolutionary anthropologists and geneticists prior to the publication of Edwards critique of Lewontin.[7][16][17][18][19]
>In the 2007 paper "Genetic Similarities Within and Between Human Populations",[20] Witherspoon et al. attempt to answer the question, "How often is a pair of individuals from one population genetically more dissimilar than two individuals chosen from two different populations?". The answer depends on the number of polymorphisms used to define that dissimilarity, and the populations being compared. When they analysed three geographically distinct populations (European, African and East Asian) and measured genetic similarity over many thousands of loci, the answer to their question was "never". However, measuring similarity using smaller numbers of loci yielded substantial overlap between these populations. Rates of between-population similarity also increased when geographically intermediate and admixed populations were included in the analysis.[20]
>Witherspoon et al. conclude that, "Since an individual's geographic ancestry can often be inferred from his or her genetic makeup, knowledge of one's population of origin should allow some inferences about individual genotypes. To the extent that phenotypically important genetic variation resembles the variation studied here, we may extrapolate from genotypic to phenotypic patterns. […] However, the typical frequencies of alleles responsible for common complex diseases remain unknown. The fact that, given enough genetic data, individuals can be correctly assigned to their populations of origin is compatible with the observation that most human genetic variation is found within populations, not between them. It is also compatible with our finding that, even when the most distinct populations are considered and hundreds of loci are used, individuals are frequently more similar to members of other populations than to members of their own population. Thus, caution should be used when using geographic or genetic ancestry to make inferences about individual phenotypes",[20] and warn that, "A final complication arises when racial classifications are used as proxies for geographic ancestry. Although many concepts of race are correlated with geographic ancestry, the two are not interchangeable, and relying on racial classifications will reduce predictive power still further."
