/polpol/ - Politically Incorrect Discussion

>>15425

>/tg/

>well-informed

I'm not sure we're thinking of the same board here anon, because the one I'm thinking of I wouldn't bet you a dollar even one in ten posters have even read the rulebook, let alone played the games they talk about.

>>15434

Ugh, I guess that was an uninformed statement by me then. The four or five threads I've been on on there were quite good, but, I'll take your word for it, I haven't spent much time on there.

I still stand by my main point, but I retract my example of /tg/.

Is this board dead then or what?

>m bored and really drunk so here's all the /pol/ moderator logs I saved up through the end of April. It's pretty long (about 1.1 million characters in length, or 650,000 not counting the reports bot). It would take about 250 posts to copy and paste the whole thing here, so here's 5 pastebin things instead. The first three parts are the actual IRC logs, the other two are a collection of (almost) every report /pol/ received through April, for your entertainment:

logs (without report bot) through 1/24/2015: http://0bin.net/paste/CdNoS5FCYTH83Ogf#DubOPuURTNxVC2Rf4e0raAUcnDqUwaX5okUeLGPx+B8

logs 1/25/2015 - 3/31/2015: http://0bin.net/paste/2cF9p98xD13TOEzd#IPhMrNotmtajaa3uc5BaIn8yvpdmb4L1DTUHlI4Y1C-

logs 4/01/2015 - 4/26/2015: http://0bin.net/paste/tYncAz3n-3SJjIT0#1o+YO7xIA7MbtuEJWPN9kEHpg1wXOnyz1Qdpwr+NuuT

report bot 4/1/2015 - 4/11/2015: http://0bin.net/paste/NsTfDipZ1VnF4GXS#hg9uupKUiwpEcN6a7WFyDVaZat7ynw4GnK44ccbiRMD

report bot 4/11/2015 - 4/26/2015: http://0bin.net/paste/VDdOZmTCOnQbXXXM#O6H6C4OvC-hdiats0DLqHVhU5MvpPZ4Vq+2gQdiMCw9

some anon on /b/ just dropped these logs, went through msot of them and didn't find anything too intresting. maybe i missed something.

If no one minds I'll copy the sections most relevant to our interests here

Fagmods discussing the removal of effective moderation and how they use kid gloves on spammers they like

[23:12] <@Nacht_> o/

[23:12] <@Nacht_> I had no idea you were the OP on the 2hu thread.

[23:12] <@Nacht_> I wouldve still deleted it, but prob a shorter ban

[23:13] <@Nacht_> people would think we're biased towards weebposters if we left it stay up, was my thought process

01[23:15] <Tryptamine566> haha it's cool

01[23:15] <Tryptamine566> I wish people on /pol/ didn't get so paranoid about that kind of thing though ;__;

01[23:15] <Tryptamine566> I think we're bleeding users a bit because of the atmosphere on /pol/

[23:16] <@Nacht_> usercounts are a cycle, Ive noticed

[23:16] <@Nacht_> early and mid week, from 2600-2800

[23:16] <@Nacht_> thurs-sat, 3100-3300

01[23:16] <Tryptamine566> huh, didn't realize that

01[23:17] <Tryptamine566> the user count gets less accurate the larger a board gets though, because it can't count users whose posts fell off the last page

[23:17] <@Nacht_> Im sure weve lost some users, though

01[23:17] <Tryptamine566> and on fast boards that takes less than 3 days

[23:17] <@Nacht_> Id never seen it hit 2600 before this week

01[23:17] <Tryptamine566> yeah, quite a few:

01[23:17] <Tryptamine566> http://nnmm.nl/chanstat/graph.php?https%3A%2F%2F8ch.net%2Fpol=on

01[23:18] <Tryptamine566> It kind of tops out at 3500, when a board gets so large you have to rely on PPH to see how big it is

[23:19] <@Nacht_> yeah

01[23:19] <Tryptamine566> like, /v/ is actually about 2x the size of /pol/ right now, even though 8chan says their UIPs are about equal

[23:20] <@Nacht_> Well, you're right about the atmosphere going too far into the serious side

01[23:20] <Tryptamine566> glad I'm not the only one who thinks so

01[23:20] <Tryptamine566> I've been browsing other boards on 8chan, almost everyone outside of /pol/ agrees too

01[23:21] <Tryptamine566> I think it's hurting the board a bit

[23:21] <@Nacht_> what do you think we should change?

01[23:23] <Tryptamine566> I think a good place to start would be to quit the witch hunt for shills, or at least to massively tone it down, and encourage the users to follow

01[23:23] <Tryptamine566> here's something I wrote to Doorways that kind of explains my reasoning:

[23:23] <@Nacht_> also, do you want to OP the thread about shill accusations? You're a little better at talking to users, Im a little more abrasive

01[23:23] <Tryptamine566> As for any concerns about shills: we might be doing more harm than good. The cointelpro sticky seems to have ramped up paranoia on /pol/ to 11 instead of encouraging critical thinking like it was intended to. Instead of prompting people to respond to logical fallacies with well-thought out responses, we have half of /pol/ accusing the other half of being JIDF at any given moment, and people on the site as a whole are accusing the /pol/ mods of being 'tinfoil' as a bonus (which hurts the credibility of the board, even if it's not true).

01[23:23] <Tryptamine566> Consider this: if a shill makes poor arguments and his posts are allowed to stay up, they serve as a good example to the rest of the userbase on how to spot shills and argue against them, and /pol/ becomes stronger against them in the future. If they make poor arguments but we ban them for it, the userbase will gradually learn to use the mods as a crutch; when they see shills, they'll just report them/call them a shill and wait for the mods to arrive instead of actually learning to argue against them, which makes /pol/ weaker against shills if there ever comes a time when all the mods are asleep/away. If a shill makes good and well-thought-out arguments, then why are they being called a shill in the first place? And if we ban them in spite of them making good arguments, that will definitely create a backlash and allow our detractors to paint us as a hugbox. The same applies to "bait", I think. People are starting to become overly reliant on moderation to remove posts they don't like, instead of either ignoring them or refuting them with evidence. And even a thread that starts off with a shitty OP can become pretty good when people post a lot of information and well-reasoned arguments refuting the OP, something which I have seen happen on many occasions when we haven't gotten around to deleting bait threads shortly after they were created.

incidentally what's the character limit on this stupid site? I hate having to eyeball this crap

01[23:24] <Tryptamine566> Yeah I'd be cool with starting the thread

01[23:25] <Tryptamine566> let me just unban myself first lol

[23:25] <@Nacht_> you said that in IRC the other night before I was home from work, the night of the mod meeting, right?

[23:25] <@Nacht_> I think I had read that part of convo, but dunno could be confusing it with other things said that night

01[23:26] <Tryptamine566> ahh no, I wrote that to him in a PM

[23:26] <@Nacht_> I see

01[23:26] <Tryptamine566> I may have said something similar at an earlier point tthough

[23:26] <@Nacht_> I agree with what you're saying, though

01[23:27] <Tryptamine566> what do you suppose we should actually talk about in the thread? Just cominng up wwith ideas before I write it out

[23:27] <@Nacht_> outside of todays 9/11 threads, I don't think I've ban/deleted anyone I suspected was a "shill" since our last mod meeting

[23:27] <@Nacht_> but I mightve been too heavyhanded on stopping derailment

[23:28] <@Nacht_> so Ill have to watch myself in the future on derailing

01[23:28] <Tryptamine566> well, I worry that it gradually causes people to become over reliant on mods to do the critical thinking for them

01[23:28] <Tryptamine566> instead of asking themselves 'is this guy making a credible argument?' they just report it and wait for us to decide for them

01[23:29] <Tryptamine566> that shouldn't be what /pol/ is about, I think

[23:29] <@Nacht_> Hmm, so lets say, we only ban/delete for derailing if theyre derailing with something that is completely unrelated to the topic?

[23:29] <@Nacht_> you think that would work?

01[23:29] <Tryptamine566> that sounds good, though in that case we could also call it 'spam'

[23:30] <@Nacht_> yeah, I suppose. people might think we're just using "derailment" as arbitry "Im deleting what I disagree with" type biases if we use it too often

[23:30] <@Nacht_> so spam would be better in many cases

[23:30] <@Nacht_> as for the thread

[23:32] <@Nacht_> I would say something along the lines of "Weve noticed a lot of arguments end with shill accusations, and noticed in many of these cases, neither side is a shill. We'd like to remind that not every opinion you disagree with is a shill, and often times making shill accusations is worse than the argument you're responding to."

[23:34] <@Nacht_> "shill accusations can derail threads with much more efficiency than bait posts. If you see a post that you suspect of being a shill, instead of making that assumption, try making logical arguments, and if they can't refute your arguments but still continue to post their side, it's better if you just hide them rather than make accusations"

[23:35] <@Nacht_> should say "it's better if you just hide and report them rather than make accusations, but don't expect us to remove opinions you disagree with for you"

01[23:36] <Tryptamine566> Hmm, sounds good, I'll write something up

[23:36] <@Nacht_> Im sure you can word that in a better way than I can, but you get the gist of what Im saying

01[23:44] <Tryptamine566> haha shit, I'm trying to write this out but I think my frustration is coming through a bit

[23:45] <@Nacht_> contain your spaghetti, we dont need to add fuel to the "mods are autistic" fires :l

01[23:47] <Tryptamine566> lol

01[23:47] <Tryptamine566> don't worry

01[23:47] <Tryptamine566> I won't post anything until it's ready

[23:48] <@Nacht_> post text in here when you finish, Ill proofread/make suggestions if needed

Session Time: Thu Mar 26 00:00:00 2015

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> Hey guys,

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> Another vol and I have decided to get together to make a public service announcement!

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> As I'm sure you've all noticed, a fair number (maybe 20%?) of the posts on /pol/ currently consist of people accusing each other of being shills, of working for [X]IDF, or of otherwise having a malicious agenda of some type or another. We just wanted to say that in the vast majority of cases where this happens, neither person is actually a shill: they are just two regular anons pointing their fingers at each other. Remember that /pol/ contains a large diversity of political beliefs (Libertarians, NatSocs, Neoreactionaries, Paleocons, Theocrats, Moderates, and even the occasional Liberal), and not everyone who posts a dissenting or "unorthodox" opinion is doing so out of malice.

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> By constantly calling each other shills like this, and by sageing posts you don't like without actually adding any meaningful content to the thread you're posting in, you run the risk of doing the shills' work for them: doing so derails the board, blocks meaningful discussion, and makes the board less informative and interesting in general. Even if the person you're discussing things with turns out to be an actual shill, they will not care if you call him out. A genuine shill would be well-trained in how to deal with a regular user calling him a shill. If you suspect something is off about a user, it is far, far better to either ignore him or refute him with solid evidence and reasoning, rather than just saying "you're a shill!"

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> By the way, a note about the Cointelpro sticky: As the mod who originally posted it a few months back, I meant for it to be a general guide for how to think critically about the posts you see on /pol/ and use your better judgement in deciding which posts to believe. I never meant to instigate a witch hunt, and I am sorry if that wasn't clear from the beginning. An environment where nobody trusts each other enough to listen to each other's ideas anymore is exactly the type of thing that /pol/'s detractors would like, so don't give them that victory.

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> So in the next thread you visit, keep those things in mind, and do your best to make /pol/ as good of a board as possible!

01[00:12] <Tryptamine566> sorry that took so long

[00:17] <@Nacht_> That looks good

[00:17] <@Nacht_> No real suggestions

01[00:17] <Tryptamine566> ok cool! I'll post it then

01[00:19] <Tryptamine566> https://8ch.net/mod.php?/pol/res/1561380.html

01[00:23] <Tryptamine566> w-what if we stickied it?

[00:25] <@Nacht_> sticky only if it cant stay bumped for more than a few hours

[00:25] <@Nacht_> Im writing up a response that will bump atm

[00:25] <@Nacht_> imo

01[00:25] <Tryptamine566> kk sounds good

[00:33] <@Nacht_> If thread doesn't stay bumped, Id say sticky for one day

[00:34] <@Nacht_> speaking of stickies, has doorways talked to you about his trip?

01[00:35] <Tryptamine566> yeah

01[00:35] <Tryptamine566> he might be moving soon, right?

[00:42] <@Nacht_> hes looking at houses on his trip

[00:43] <@Nacht_> so Id think hes getting ready to

01[01:00] <Tryptamine566> The thread seems to be doing well

[01:07] <@Nacht_> yeah Im glad were getting reasonable discussion

[01:08] <@Nacht_> Ive noticed that meta threads on /pol/ tend to be much less… hostile

[01:08] <@Nacht_> compared to what we see on the metaboard all the time

01[01:29] <Tryptamine566> Meta boards always seem to attract the most extreme, outraged people possible

01[01:29] <Tryptamine566> hell, look at /meta/ itself

[01:45] <@Nacht_> yep, been the same since /q/ on 4chan

[01:46] <@Nacht_> I doubt moot knew what he was in for when he made that board

01[02:12] <Tryptamine566> I was so naive when I made /polmeta/

01[02:13] <Tryptamine566> I thought we might get threads like "let's raise the number of images you can attach per post!".

01[02:13] <Tryptamine566> But it's all just modhate and drama ;__;

01[02:25] <Tryptamine566> seeing all these positive responses to the thread is really surprising in a good way, I was worried that people didn't value free speech as much anymore (based on some of the reports we've been getting in the report queue). But now I think the majority of the board really does want it to have a clash of ideas like it used to.

[02:59] <@Nacht_> Im just glad were not getting bombarded with 'MODS = FAGS'

01[03:16] <Tryptamine566> feels good man

[03:25] <@Nacht_> ikr

[03:26] <@Nacht_> MODS = GODS posts are the true hotpockets

01[03:33] <Tryptamine566> lol

01[04:02] <Tryptamine566> alright I'm gonna go to sleep

01[04:02] <Tryptamine566> see you around

Session Close: Thu Mar 26 14:02:24 2015

Hotwheels approves of more leniant moderation but encourages the /pol/ moderators to buddy up to us so I don't know

03[01:56] * reports () has joined #8chan-pol

01[01:56] <Tryptamine566> h-hi

[01:56] <@copypaste> .q

[01:56] <@Nacht_> does it send a message every time a new report comes in?

01[01:56] <Tryptamine566> hey hotwheels

[01:56] <@copypaste> yes

[01:57] <@copypaste> hi

01[01:57] <Tryptamine566> any t-thoughts on all this?

[01:57] <@Nacht_> hmm, maybe itd be better to have a new seperate channel for it

[01:57] <@copypaste> i didn't read it

[01:57] <@copypaste> just came here to ask about the reports thing

[01:57] <@Nacht_> so it doesnt spam reports during conversations

01[01:57] <Tryptamine566> cool feature

[01:57] <@Nacht_> we basically want to go back to first exodus moderation

01[01:58] <Tryptamine566> pol is going back to lenient moderation btw

[01:58] <@copypaste> glad to hear it (´･ω･`)

01[01:58] <Tryptamine566> or at least thats the plan

01[01:58] <Tryptamine566> yeah

[01:58] <@copypaste> you could do like /v/ does and link to /svidya/ (your /svidya/ is /polpol/)

[01:58] <@Nacht_> ban only spam, pure off-topic, flooding

01[01:59] <Tryptamine566> yeah

01[01:59] <Tryptamine566> how does that sound, hotwheels?

[01:59] <@copypaste> i like it

[01:59] <@copypaste> maybe the /int/ threads will stop

[01:59] <@copypaste> lol

01[01:59] <Tryptamine566> lol I really think it will die down

[01:59] <@Nacht_> me and trypt talked to /int/ a lot earlier

01[01:59] <Tryptamine566> those types of things tend not to last forever

[01:59] <@Nacht_> I think theyre mostly satisfied

[01:59] <@copypaste> cool

[02:00] <@copypaste> i like /int/. lowcard owns it, the first global volunteer on 8chan, kek

[02:00] <@copypaste> so i am biased

[02:00] <@copypaste> ( ≖‿≖)

01[02:00] <Tryptamine566> it's a good board

01[02:00] <Tryptamine566> once you learn how it works

[02:00] <@Nacht_> culture shock, I guess

[02:00] <@Nacht_> once you stop trying to be serious its better

01[02:00] <Tryptamine566> it's pure *chan culture

>>15528

I've seen whiny /int/ morons talking about this supposed chan culture on /meta/ and /operate/ a bit. I wonder if it's Trip himself.

Whines about /polpol/ a bit

[02:09] <@Nacht_> lol now the /polpol/ fags started proxying to agree with themselves in that earlier thread

01[02:09] <Tryptamine566> haha really?

[02:09] <@Nacht_> check the last 2 replies

01[02:09] <Tryptamine566> oh lol

01[02:10] <Tryptamine566> looks like they finally got a 51st UIP on their board too

01[02:10] <Tryptamine566> versus 3000 for /pol/

[02:10] <@copypaste> lol

[02:10] <@Nacht_> hypocrites, immediately after claiming I was proxying

[02:10] <@copypaste> of course

[02:10] <@copypaste> guilty conscience

01[02:10] <Tryptamine566> also ironic that they "shill" like that when they claim everyone else is a shill

01[02:11] <Tryptamine566> *for lack of a better word

01[02:11] <Tryptamine566> "shill" has basically lost all meaning at this point anyway, the way it's been overused

/pol/ mods lie to themselves claiming that they aren't trying to reshape the board culture

[07:52] <@Nacht_> are we still considering /fringe/ to be off-topic

[07:52] <~faggetttss> like literally, anime spam and no politics

[07:52] <@Nacht_> this one is aliens

[07:52] <~faggetttss> honestly, i'd leave it

[07:52] <~faggetttss> he tries to justify it with politics

01[07:52] <Tryptamine566> I think that's ok

[07:52] <@Nacht_> fair enough

01[07:53] <Tryptamine566> it's just if it's completely unrelated to politics at all

01[07:53] <Tryptamine566> that we should move in

[07:53] <~faggetttss> ye

[07:54] <~faggetttss> like, the /pol/ culture will go where it wants to with or without us

01[07:54] <Tryptamine566> exactly

01[07:54] <Tryptamine566> we shouldn't really try to control it

[07:54] <~faggetttss> we're just here for spam and raids and off topic

[07:54] <@Nacht_> also, I think someone reported the thread archives sticky with as an archive request

[07:54] <@Nacht_> all of my wat

[07:54] <~faggetttss> who is doing the archives again?

01[07:54] <Tryptamine566> trying to control /pol/ culture too much is part of the reason that we've lost half our users since December I think

It's just awful to try to keep trip and avatarfagging shit stirrers off your board

[08:27] <@Nacht_> That didnt take long, the guy who OPed all the /polpol/ shilling responded with "Fuck off retard"

[08:28] <~faggetttss> all they want to do is stir up shit

[08:28] <~faggetttss> we cant feed the trolls

01[08:29] <Tryptamine566> yeah don't take that kind of thing to heart

[08:30] <@Nacht_> oh I know, that guy in particular just cares about swindling as many people as he can into /polpol/

01[08:30] <Tryptamine566> man, some people are really blowing things out of proportion

01[08:31] <Tryptamine566> It's like "let's have more lenient moderation for X, Y, and Z reasons" becomes "I am a shill that wants to destroy /pol/" in their minds

[08:31] <~faggetttss> or they just do it to try to get a rise out of the vols

01[08:31] <Tryptamine566> true

[08:31] <@Nacht_> that was the same guy that wanted to ban on sight rach permanently

[08:32] <@Nacht_> like banning anyone on sight is ever a good idea

01[08:32] <Tryptamine566> >2015 >not permabanning people because they trigger you

01[08:32] <Tryptamine566> I mean if rach breaks the rules sure, but banning someone just because they have a certain political stance is terrible

[13:28] <~faggetttss> get the fuck in here Tryptamine566 if you're on

01[13:57] <Tryptamine566> hey, just woke up

01[13:57] <Tryptamine566> what's up?

[13:57] <~faggetttss> what the fuck are you doing

[13:58] <~faggetttss> https://8ch.net/int/res/187533.html

01[13:58] <Tryptamine566> I've been asleep since 8:30 dude

01[13:58] <Tryptamine566> that's someone else

[13:59] <~faggetttss> explain

[13:59] <~faggetttss> how did anyone get my irc nick

01[14:00] <Tryptamine566> I have absolutely no idea

01[14:01] <Tryptamine566> I've never talked about you anywhere outside of here

[14:01] <~faggetttss> ok

01[14:01] <Tryptamine566> could be the guy nacht invited in?

[14:01] <~faggetttss> it must be Somanyanons then

[14:03] <~faggetttss> fucking idiots

01[14:03] <Tryptamine566> that makes sense

01[14:03] <Tryptamine566> fucking /int/ people

[14:03] <~faggetttss> fuck this im done for the rest of the day

[14:08] <@Nacht_> wake up

[14:09] <@Nacht_> find out people are now resorting to false flagging as mods in int

[14:09] <@Nacht_> good times, the autism never ends

[14:10] <~faggetttss> that's why i try to keep my username and irc nick in regards to /pol/ close to my chest

01[14:11] <Tryptamine566> good thinking

01[14:11] <Tryptamine566> I haven't told anyone my IRC handle recently, I wonder how soma got it

[14:15] <~faggetttss> because copypaste dropped our nicks in another staff channel

[14:23] <~faggetttss> We need to make a wordfilter for /polpol/

01[14:24] <Tryptamine566> hey, so: https://8ch.net/mod.php?/polmeta/res/6862.html

01[14:25] <Tryptamine566> it seems like people are complaining about ban&delete on some threads related to whats going on today?

[14:25] <~faggetttss> i've been blowing out all /polpol/ shilling

[14:25] <@Nacht_> ./polpol/ spammer would just use it as fuel again (wordfilter)

[14:25] <~faggetttss> they are trying to drive user to /polpol/

[14:25] <~faggetttss> *users

01[14:25] <Tryptamine566> I kind of think banning the /polpol/ people is fuelling paranoia, what I would do is lock duplicates and redirect

[14:26] <~faggetttss> well i'm done for a bit

01[14:26] <Tryptamine566> if they spam the threads, ban for that too

01[14:26] <Tryptamine566> fair enough

01[14:26] <Tryptamine566> sorry you were dragged into all of this

[14:26] <~faggetttss> and i stand by every one of my B&D today

01[16:49] <Tryptamine566> you know this has got me thinking, I kind of wonder how many conspiracy theories are kind of like what's happening on /pol/ right now, where people make up things that sound vaguely plausible about people in high positions that they don't like, and spam them until people accept that they're true?

Trypt and faggettssss cream themselves over PPH. Isn't faggot the current BO? I wonder if he's kicking himself for that now

01[15:32] <&Tryptamine566> holy fuck /pol/ is sat 1,200 PPH

01[15:32] <&Tryptamine566> hey

01[15:33] <&Tryptamine566> there's not even a shitstorm going on right now, either

[15:42] <~faggetttss> wait 1200?

[15:42] <~faggetttss> jesus

01[15:43] <&Tryptamine566> yup

01[15:43] <&Tryptamine566> fastest it's ever been

01[15:43] <&Tryptamine566> ever

[15:43] <~faggetttss> damn

[15:43] <~faggetttss> ive been on all day too

01[15:43] <&Tryptamine566> it's not even peak hours on 8chan lol

[15:43] <~faggetttss> wew

01[15:56] <&Tryptamine566> >people reporting posts they disagree with as 'shitposting'

[15:57] <~faggetttss> yes

[15:57] <~faggetttss> but that's easy to mod

[15:57] <~faggetttss> :^)

06[15:57] * ~faggetttss dismisses

01[15:57] <&Tryptamine566> :^)

[15:57] <~faggetttss> damn son

[15:57] <~faggetttss> 1219

[15:57] <~faggetttss> like

[15:58] <~faggetttss> wew

[15:58] <~faggetttss> polpol

[15:58] <~faggetttss> 45

[15:58] <~faggetttss> :^)

[16:00] <~faggetttss> :^)

01[16:04] <&Tryptamine566> lol

01[16:04] <&Tryptamine566> >muh pissed-off 3% of the userbase

01[16:05] <&Tryptamine566> did you ever get a chance to look at that archived thread I posted btw?

01[16:05] <&Tryptamine566> anti-free speech people got BTFO harder than I've ever seen

[16:07] <~faggetttss> yes i looked at it

[16:07] <~faggetttss> the thread was still up

[18:58] <~faggetttss> goddamn it, down to 500 again

01[19:15] <&Tryptamine566> ahh, it was pretty cool that we broke a record though

[19:15] <~faggetttss> yup

[19:15] <~faggetttss> i want to hit 2000 pph next

01[19:15] <&Tryptamine566> I think something important is happening in Britain with Nigel Farage

01[19:15] <&Tryptamine566> that's why we had the spike

[19:15] <~faggetttss> yeah it was a live stream

01[19:16] <&Tryptamine566> 2000 would be nuts

01[19:16] <&Tryptamine566> That would be pretty cool

01[20:02] <&Tryptamine566> if int likes us, they will treat the board with respect and it makes raids less likely

>>15537

Oh forgot the next bit

[20:02] <~faggetttss> we could raid other boards

[20:02] <~faggetttss> together

01[20:02] <&Tryptamine566> that would be pretty fucking cool actually

[20:02] <~faggetttss> yea

[20:05] <~faggetttss> like, maybe in the future we could raid /polpol/ and shit up the entire board

[20:05] <~faggetttss> if they stay relevant that is

>you can't run from us goy, we'll follow you!

Well at least triptamine fucked off.

It really was the same Nacht. And I remember him speaking about all the wonders of facism.

I guess it goes to show you. Never trust an a avatarfag. Especially one with an avatar from Something Awful tier weebshit.

>>15523

This is fucking ridiculous.

Are you going to post this on normal /pol/?

You don't have to advertise, but I think they should probably see this shit

How do faggots like this always get into positions of power? It happens way too often+

>>15546

I don't think /pol/ would care at all.

maybe 2-3months ago when the majority of good posters we're still there.

>>15559

were*

>>15559

Did the majority good posters abandon 8chan entirely or did the come here? Someone mentioned that /polpol/ was talking about /pol/ and I thought I'd see what it was. All I can say is that those logs are rather irritating. There are, I think, two gentlemen that are probably the best of /pol/ (I'm not really that great). The board seems fine at the moment, though.

>>15573

I think that the majority of good posters left 8chan for good, a few of them migrated to here, but we didn't get a huge influx of people. maybe some of them came here just to lurk since we're only having 19 Uips atm.

>>15576

Then where did they go?

>>15577

I don't have the slightests clue. but my best guess is https://www.stormfront.org/forum/ or http://www.reddit.com/r/TheRedPill/

>>15578

forgot to mention, that i'm not trying to advertise other sites. most of them are shit-tier. full of edgy 14 year olds rebelling against their parents trying to be become neo-nazis.

>>15579

pol going to storm or reddit? just doesn't sound right.

I really miss the minds and personalities that were on halftran and then here on the first exodus, but for the most part they are gone.

We use to get things done. This new /pol/ is as bad as reddit and stormfront. Sad times, but I'm sure those in opposition are happy.

I wish this place wasn't so dead. I don't understand why the mods/vols on 8/pol/ are always so shit. They ignore all legitimate reports, but then go and delete good threads for no reason. I really wonder who they are??? Total lack of duty and discretion, they do the opposite of what should be done in every case. Fucking terrible and I just don't know /pol/ can never seem to get decent mods. I really think they work for the enemy

>>15620

The thing is, people still post there despite the mods.

>>15585

not FBI but aren't allot of them on IRC now?

>>15622

could be…

I haven't used IRC for at least ten years now and I don't think I'll go back.

>>15620

I think now they should rename /pol/ to /trump/ since the entire board has now become a shill board for Israel loving trump.

“We love Israel. We will fight for Israel 100 percent, 1,000 percent. It will be there forever.”

http://www.algemeiner.com/2015/02/06/donald-trump-on-jewish-daughter-ivanka-this-wasnt-in-the-plan-but-im-very-glad-it-happened-video/

It makes you wonder who the mods really are there.

>>15654

/pol/ is so starved for conservative politicians that they're willing to suck the dick of any "mainstream" candidate that supports at least some of their views.

Watch them be surprised when they get sold out.

>>15686

>Here is him saying it

I meant to add pic-related, last post.

>>14354

stopping by to say:

/Pol/ is becoming disgusting.

>>15690

Disgusting as in full of shit, or disgusting as in full of degenerates?

>>15690

So's every other board. Might sound like I'm getting triggered here, but the commie SJWs from /leftypol/ are everywhere these days and they're fast turning most of the top boards into reddit.

I don't want to seem defeatist, but I have to wonder what's going on. Political discourse on 8chan has not only decreased dramatically in quality (a complete absence of citations is fairly common), it's also swung from somewhat "right" (including NS) to hard-left and almost entirely feels-based. That, combined with the inevitable revision of history (especially related to /pol/), makes me think that we'll get into 4chan hotpocket territory within a year.

>>15696

I'm upset about about /n/.

Yeah there were liberals, but we could blow them the fuck out. It looked like it could be an alternative to /pol/.

Now? Dead.

>>15660

>Watch them be surprised when they get sold out.

Got that Romney picture of anon's reactions after he lost?

>>14376

yup and they will all pour into /polpol/ when they decide the board is shit

>>15820

I dunno, somebody is spreading the idea that this board was created on April 1st by /intl/, and that disinfo seems to be catching on

>>15854

/intl/ and the pol vols have been spreading that bullshit since April 1st

>>15854

An absolutely retarded lie since we still have threads from December. If you see it slap it down

>>15697

>I'm upset about about /n/

I'm upset about being reminded that it exists, with the news feed restored on the front page. Day in, day out, it's the same poison and copypaste giving them an audience because he can't bear to see "his" /new/ die is pathetic.

The funny thing is that he's abandoned another lolberg principle by doing so, that of competition and the free market.
