The problem with SA-LF and WDDP wasn't that there were idiots posting, but that we were always ultimately under the control of melodramatic buffoons. It's incredibly easy to ban whatever new wave of fascists, liberals and idiots join the site if it comes down to it, but it's a lot harder to actually attract good new posters who may never come back if the registration process is too delayed or annoying.
Yea
im also thinking if we streamline ifap procedures (mods all know how to add+remove, implement timers, etc) we can put people in timeout while people explain why the bad thing they said is bad
seriously tho, i vote for all the posters so far mentioned, including c_man who i trust will end the mentally unstable christian shitpost reign of boourns terror

the first part never happens until it becomes a literal safety concern and i think its at least as likely that Good Posters would leave because of awful people basically being given free rein to be horrible bigots or whatever. i'd be pretty shocked if it were the waiting period, of all things, that kept good people from wanting to post here
i mean, good posters are already leaving all the time. besides, we let you post liberal nonsense and anti-communist handwringing for your first year before you eventually became a mediocre poster

i dont think being a liberal and being a racist/misogynist/etc are comparable. i accept that this may be a minority position

i agree. its like the difference between a paedophile and a paedophile enabler

Agreed. Many of our working class, prison populating, third world allies harbor racist or sexist views due to their upbringing or need for a scapegoat. While obviously a bad trait, these views are somewhat understandable in context. However, Liberalism is never acceptable.

mods do your job, else why the eff are you getting a large salary
mods are now: swampman, roseweird, Gssh, Urbandale
ifap wardens are now: EmanuelaBrolandi, thirdplace, Keven, c_man
ifap warden is basically just a comedy position imo so if you don't want to be one don't worry about it, but i think it should be separate from modding at least. good luck everyone with our new five year plan. i expect many ones of posters to join us soon

did you change registration
ilmdge posted:did you change registration
i changed the text on the reg screen to be more encouraging & straightforward and it should make it faster/easier for both me and them. all the people i added as user creators can still do it too, and also i made the new lf mods able to do that too if they couldn't already.
