Kindly consider adding a few tags to make finding this board easier such as

Lifestyle

gender-relations

feminism (because MGTOW is the result of the cancer that is modern feminism)

Masculinity

hello and thank you
i wanted to change it but there are some problems right now.

Whenever I try to update the settings this shows up. I'm not the only one:
https://www.8chan.co/meta/res/41064.html
https://www.8chan.co/meta/res/41044.html

Until I find a solution to this what would be a good tag? I think:
- Lifestyle is good
- masculinity is good
- gender relations is not necessary if we already have masculinity
- feminism (and gynocentriscm) might attract the wrong crowd, I would prefer to make it misandry

I suggest:
- Freedom (everyone loves freedom right?)

What are your thoughts about it? Do you have more ideas?

EDIT1: I decided to make this a sticky thread. From now on any type of improving suggestions should be posted and discussed here.
EDIT2: OK it seems like the problem is gone now. I managed to change the tags and enable some other minor features like PDF support.
If OP gives me his OK I will change the name of the thread to "improvement discussion" or something like that.

Op back again here.

Upon reflection, yes 'feminism' was a bad choice. So
Lifestyle
Masculinity
Freedom

Looks good to me.

Perhaps also "Individualism"? This may not be a great tag but maybe as something temporary until we come up with better tags.

Also, hopefully the settings issues gets resolved soon. Good luck.

I just want to use this opportunity to ask whether you plan on maintaining this board for a long time or at least in the immediate future? In other words do you have time in your personal life for routine upkeep of the board.

Also, if ever life gets too hectic for you and you no longer have the time for this board, kindly do make sure that the board is handed over to a legit MGTOW, hopefully someone from the various MGTOW website out there and someone with a broad minded and open personality which you seem to have. Please do not let it go to the claims.html page and taken over by a troll. Thanks :)

Btw, Hotwheels has indicated that the error is fixed. Just keeping you informed

Open minded is good, I actually like having thoughtful conversations with even people who question MGTOW but the board shouldn't get overrun with cancer either.

The main problem here is pedos. They think just because MGTOWs are men who reject long term relationships with women, that we are open to their harmful degeneracy. The pedo cancer mustn't be allowed here. They already harass the wizards for example by claiming to be them. If this board becomes popular, I'm sure they will be here too peddling their wares.

I'm all for strong debates with even those extremely opposed to MGTOW but I do not want to engage with sickos

I'm a MGTOW and I have some tendencies of pedophilia.

I don't think that discussing pedo matters should be done here.

However, calling other men sickos is as bad as women calling men creeps.

Age of consent laws are fuelled by the gynocracy. Overcoming pedophobia is one of the greatest red pills. Why would you believe the same academics about the >harmful effects of pedophilia who go around claiming that 1 in 5 women get raped? Why would you accept the decisions of the same judges who send men in to jail for 'domestic abuse' and 'rape' if in this case they send them in for 'child rape'?

I'm not asking for this board to be openly supporting pedos, because not all MGTOW are pedos. But if the board will be openly hostile against pedophilia, dogmatically rejecting it, I can't partake any more. If this happens, the tradcon people shouting that MGTOW is just feminism for men will become right.

Also, the usage of degeneracy indicates that you might be a troll from /pol/. MGTOW doesn't need the groupthink mentality from there.

I already updated the page yesterday when Hotwheels fixed it. Instead of doubleposting I just edited my last posting.

>>188
Individualism sound good, I will add this too.
I plan to maintain the site and I have the time too. What do you mean with taken over by a troll or landing on the claims.html?
Is this some kind of report function for illegal content?

>>203
Pedo related content is banned from this board (rule 2). Spamming (rule 3) is not allowed either. The spamming rule is meant in the sense of f.e. feminists spamming our board with shaming texts.
https://www.8chan.co/mgtow/rules.html

OP may I rename the thread to "Improvement suggestions"?

>>206
I don't want them here because they will be used against us and we will be called pedos because of them. I don't want to offer potential ammo to the SJW's. Pedo related topics can be discussed in the pedo boards of 8chan.

I'm not hostile to pedos in the sense that I wish to cause them harm or to harass them even in the context of an image board conversation. In short I don't hate pedos.

I disagree with the most of content of that post but like you said "I don't think that discussing pedo matters should be done here." I think we both can agree on that

>>207
>Pedo related content is banned from this board (rule 2)
Alright. Thanks

I think I'm done on that subject for now. If I cam across as confrontational and hostile, I apologize

IMHO this is appeasement. A MGTOW shouldn't care what other people call him or how they label him.

I don't want to have animosity against you guys, because you were really polite and understanding. However I can't accept a MGTOW board which has an outright rule against all pedo discussion.

I created https://8chan.co/mmgtow

Most likely I'll only post there from now, unless there's a change of rules.

I hope that maybe this kind of manly competition will only make the mgtow scene on 8chan even more lively.

>>208

I'm not an SJW to tone-police you. You can call pedos sickos if you want. But it must be pointed out that for pedos it feels the same as when regular men get called creeps. Apology accepted. I value your honesty and integrity, keep up the good work.

You might want to add "mgtow" to the tags as well. If you click "mgtow" in the tag cloud, the only board that shows up is /mmgtow/ and not this one.

Board Owner, nice work on the tags. It was a good suggestion and those tags look good. Hopefully we will see some more pickup in traffic to the board

Hi sorry , for the delay in response. I had been inactive at 8chan in general for the last few days.

Here is the information on claim.html

https://8chan.co/claim.html

Below is a list of boards that either have received no owner login for two weeks, or no posts for one week. These boards are considered dead and can be taken over by anyone. To claim one of these boards and run it yourself, send an email to admin@8chan.co. Please include relevant experience with the board's subject if applicable. Boards are given away at a first come first serve basis, and this page is regenerated every five minutes.

Basically its a mechanism to transfer ownership of the board if the original owner abandons the board or if the board shows no activity. In the old system such boards used to get deleted. This 'claim.html' page is the new system

supreme gentlefaggot was no mgtow. His whole life he was obsessed with society and women instead of going his own way.


261d5e No.1103

Not having the usual "Name/Email/Subject" fields caught me off-guard when I came here.
I can understand not needing a name field, but do you suppose going back to our roots and allowing us an email and subject field might be worthwhile? It's so ingrained in my mind that it feels wrong not having them.

c870e9 No.1375

I wanted to ask you guys about some idea that was suggested in one of the postings on /mgtow/.

It's about creating sticky threads for topics like -media (good youtubers, movies, video games, books etc.) or -misandric society and women (news, stories, etc.) because there were too many similar threads about those topics.

Do you think this would make sense? I guess it would help to make the board more organised and for new threads to be focussed on other interesting topics like fitness and health, hobbies other than media, finance and business or the world economy. We have much potential for interesting threads about those topics.

In order not to fill the whole front page with stickies I could unsticky some of the currently stickied threads.

This is regarding the board showing up on claims

Thank God, BO.

I though you had abandoned the board and feared the worst. I saw all this spam and went to check if the board was on claims on June 2nd and sure enough, it was.

I filed a request to claim the board to prevent it being taken over by one of MGTOW's innumerable enemies.

I had planned for the worst, even getting ready to make a new MGTOW board if some enemy had already claimed it before me.

Heaven's sake BO, you have done a superb job of managing the board so far, but please don't scare us like this.

To the Global Volunteer, now that the old BO is back, I hope the claim I had made will be automatically ignored. If not, please tell me what I have to do to cancel my claim and prevent a mess.


6f6021 No.2122

Also BO, if you can, please make a throwaway twitter account with absolutely no link to your personal info and put it in one of the board stickies. Use it only for communication purposes. Next time something like this happens, one of us can alert you or get int touch with you and get some idea of what is happening.

In this case, we had no idea whether you had abandoned the board or were busy with work or what the problem was

I'd like to suggest those posters (Netherlands, Great Britain, Croatia) for European Moderators. Especially Croatia as he is one of my favourite posters here (thank you BTW).

And America, Canada and Mexico / Brazil for American Moderators:

And I want to suggest Singapore and Australia for Asian moderator:

>>2147

>>1803

From what I see you seem to be based and if a few of you have the time for it, you can be moderators on this board.

Could you guys go to Cockmail (https://cock.li/) and create a fake email address and contact me about it? Email is mgtow@8chan.co

Thank you, that's a very nice compliment. It would be an honor to help moderate the forum, however I don't handle positions of authority very well and tend to become somewhat of a tyrant…. especially at around 2am after a bottle of wine;-)

My favorite time was about 7 years or so ago when MGTOW was generally limited to a single ProBoards forum and the moderator hardly ever intervened. There were huge flame wars and many lulz were had. I don't mind people who try to disrupt the dialogue as eventually the MGTOW message hits home even with them… Also, their objections can be quite interesting.

Perhaps in the future if things get totally out of control here, I could assist in some very limited capacity. Shall see…

I'm netharlands poster. Same Guys as this >>2122

I don't have much experience as volunteer. I know the basics of moderating a board though. I'm ready to volunteer.

I'm a little bit of a timid volunteer. I hate conflict with the community. So I am afraid I will not be able to deal with anything beyond obvious spam or something that breaks global rules. I just find it difficult to deal with the drama that comes from banning or deleting stuff beyond that. In those cases, I will tell them that it is upto the BO. In other words, I will not take a call on vague stuff such as shitposting and in those cases, it will be your call on what to do with those.

Board configuration and rules have been updated and Netherlands has been installed as board volunteer.

He was so far the only one who contacted me for the moderator position but if there are any more (especially America and Asia region) I'd be thankful for it.

just a pro tip, you should have a very short sweet "what is mgtow" somewhere on the front page, or even make a page or infographic for it, but god make it have an opening that explains the basics

MGTOW might best be quickly described as "give them what they want". Or, at least, what feminist columnists in The Guardian want - to never be approached, complimented, or even looked at for too long by a man.

I wish there was a fgtow thread. Last I checked, Im a woman, yet Im tired of only attracting needy welfare bitches that want me to support them and talk about their feelings. Ill be down to try a virtual reality man,
