Should we start advertising on /pol/ again? I noticed that our active users dropped a bit. We were nearing 500 before.
Why are there so many people still staying there when it's obvious that the mods aren't on our side anymore? Are they just unaware of the big picture or what?

3265f7 No.11556
The increase dropped because the drama died down, so non /pol/acks also stopped looking here.
The rest sticking to /pol/ love their shackles I guess, and the moderation did some heavy shilling against us on there as usual. So whatever. We shouldn't want to be popular anyway, only strive for quality and people will come here on their own volition. You shouldn't want to attract the 2nd exodus type people who are too stupid to see when moderation is compromised and only come when the place gets nuked.
Don't advertise, we are already visible.

>>11556As this guy said, I think we should wait a bit more to see if we're going to have more natural growth over time. People were coming here out of curiosity too, just like they were doing on /pol/ before.
If there are any decent people left on /pol/, they'll come here eventually once they start to realize the board's quality is dropping immensely because of all the faggotry that happened last week.

/pol/ is nothing but cancer, now, but I've literally only just come here. Probably because I assumed a lack of activity….may be worth advertising for lost souls like me, bewildered by just how shit /pol/ is, quite suddenly.
The mods aren't even trying to moderate: they have deliberately allowed it to become as godawful as halfchan /pol/ was by the end.

To clarify:
The ban opened my eyes, I have left /pol/ because they ban and censor criticism and because most of the threads are now nonsensical racebaiting or tumblr-tier gender wars, or "look ma, I'm sooooo edgy i hate the jews XD" bullshit. If you want to discuss National Socialism in a rational way, good on ya, but that's not what /pol/ does. Also, racism is frankly boring and trite, it's the most obvious form of memetic social control in our capitalist system (get poor people to hate each other based on trivial things and identity politics).
I'm asking here because I have heard that you still allow free speech. So far, from the board's reaction, it's hard to tell.

He also approved of the leniency of the hotpockets on April 1st.

I'm just a regular poster but I've had been wanting /polpol/ to come back to life for awhile as regular /pol/ started looking like shills and bots some months ago. The new stink blew up, and here we are. I just wonder how many of those IPs on regular 8/pol/ are actually legit, they sure didn't lose many people it seems..
Sometimes I wonder if I'm just talking to bots and shills, not so much here (yet) but it's weird when a community goes to shit and you wonder how it got that way. There were times back on 4/pol/ where I was almost certain I was in a bubble talking to bots

There's no reason to be ironic about serious issues like immigration, nationalism, race, etc, unless it's obvious that the post in question is extremist garbage or trying to be funny on purpose.
I myself am I libertarian nationalist, but I still have a lot of views regarding these issues which conflate with NatSocs and other right-wing ideologies as well.

i think a lot of you might be under the impression that this is a new board made in direct response to the april 1 day shit. it isnt, its 5 months old, its popularity has always fluctuated while remaining active and self moderating for the most part.
i appreciate that some of you are concerned about the board's popularity but it really doesnt matter to us on staff and it doesnt matter to the kind of person we want to post here. the board is old and has always been small, and while im glad that the last week brought about a surge in users, theres very little anyone can do to make people stay if they dont want to, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.
people are now more aware of our presence and they know the alternative exists, if they're stupid enough to again invest themselves or have faith in /pol/ then thats their prerogative.
our ethos was always one that focused on quality over quantity, and that will continue. if this recent migration inreases our core userbase from the 30 that it was before to 50, 80 or 100, then i am more than happy.

I'm baffled where the good posters went, and also that people were apparently just fine with what happened. It's funny to compare with gamergate which was 100% nuked (rather than 80% nuked). /pol/ continued on like it never happened, somehow, but gamergate moved on immediately.

Guys, make no mistake though; we just aren't getting more new users because /pol/ mods have actually started banning obvious shitposting/b8 threads again. You can check their board log to see that. They banned someone for making a "yfw God exists" thread, "cuckshit", people who were still using anime to shitpost, etc. It's not enough to make me want to go back there, but I understand this is the reason we aren't getting more activity yet. I can't say I'm very happy about that, since I actually wanted /polpol/ to take off and replace that piece of shit board for good, since I know that at least the mods are on our side here and they probably wouldn't even think of doing stupid shit like that in the board's lifetime. I think this counts as a small victory for us though, I don't think the /int/ shitposters are very happy about that either, since their main goal was to turn 8/pol/ into a free-for-all shitposting hugbox.

Did they leave in the meantime?I think that the majority of us who were at 8/pol/ before the retard immigration happened are all here. I mean there isn't really any other place to go - We left 4pol because it was shit, and stayed at 8pol because we wanted quality. Then the quality fell and the mods only encouriged this situation, so we went to 8polpol.

It seems like all of the boards are collapsing now. Check out the numbers, I'm pretty sure it's way way lower for most boards as compared to a week ago

Which /pol/?
What is this board even about?

Rest of us who have any kind of thick skin stayed on /pol/.

Just post on both boards you fucking faggots. Why would you want this board to get bigger? So it's an easier shill target? polpol is a hugbox. There's nothing wrong with that. Some of us want discussion/drama/memes to have some fun and blow off steam and will continue to post on /pol/.

>>12700wut? So what are you doing here then?
>>12725ITs been explained many times, so please stop with the hugbox bullshit. This isn't a board which is specifically for far-right people. Everyone no matter how retarded his believes are is welcome here as long as he wants to have discussion, rather than your usuall pol-tier threads in which they say "Communism is Great xD" and just say *IDF if you don't agree with them, without even trying to back up anything.
Hugbox is
>an environment, usually on the internet, in which a group with similar interests gathers to discuss topics in what they intend to be a safe, comforting, and confrontation-free environment.This place was created excatly because we WANT an enviorment where we can get confronted and have discussions, not the other way around.This is the whole idea of this place. But since we can't have any discussions on a place where every 2nd post is accusing someone of being RIDF/JIDF/CIDF/ we came here.
We welcome absolutely everyone, no where does it say "leftists or liberals are banned" , nor has this ever happened. You can't blame this place for being a hugbox if they themselfs don't come and argue. They are welcome, but they don't come for 1 simple reason - over here we talk, we don't call each other names like 5 year old, we don't scream shills, we don't use ad hominems because our feelings got hurt, We talk. Since they know that they must actually defend their statements without bullshit excuses they simply refuse to do so, and want to have the comfort of their own board.

>>12401This exactly. Why even bother advertising on /pol/? It isn't about unpopularity, but about the quality discussion with likeminded people.

I moved here from pol last week. I think it's good to create awareness but It's not necessary to try hard.
Quality > Quantity
But yeah awareness is necessary

Did everyone go back to /pol/ or 4/pol/?
>>13062>Quality > QuantityYeah but now it's not even the top 25, and 8ch is very slow when you get past the top 10.

That is because this vvv board is completely full of shit posts, which has bumped us off.

It's better not to advertise.
Numbers aren't a primary concern.
Better to have constructive discourse and a focused group.
Let /pol/ be an open battle ground.
It gives the detractors a sense of achievement.
This way only interested parties will bother to stick around.
Plus it's harder to undermine the moderation team with fewer numbers.

This.
/polpol/ was made with the community itself in mind, not the immigrants from other boards and sites that keep wanting everything their way.

I don't want to beat a dead horse or anything, but was curious as to what happened in /pol/ last week? Have they been compromised like cuckchan was?

Doesn't help that you outed yourselfves as a hugbox by banning people like me for trying to come here and respond to obvious bait, despite you pretending it's a fair and balanced forum the mods here are arguably even worse because they'll ban you for anything they want here.
Enjoy your little hugbox, signed a real natioinal socialist that can accept different viewpoints and trolling.
Maybe if you faggots would've stayed on /pol/ and made them realize they're being subverted from the inside instead of retreating to a cute little soundboard, we wouldn't have to see a sad topic like this one.

I think most people on /polpol/ prefer to lurk, like myself. If I don't have anything constructive to add to the conversation, I usually won't post, but I still enjoy the informative and interesting threads that /polpol/ provides. I still go on halfchan's pol and other pol to shitpost though.
