We're looking for janitors (low-level farmhands) and people with Linux or web dev experience.

If you're interested in helping out, introduce yourself ITT and write a few sentences about how you can help. If we're interested, we'll contact you through a temporary ban message.

Would definitely be interested in being a janitor. I spend too much time on here, night as well be slightly productive with it.

No. 13437

Any janitor positions available? Work from home so always have heaps of spare time and am constantly browsing through threads.

No. 13450

Interested in being a janitor as well if you guys need anymore of them. I spend an alarming amount of my day refreshing the boards and lurking. Particularly on /snow/ and /ot/ I feel like I would be most familiar with board culture.

No. 14598

If janitors are still needed I would be interested in being a janitor, I really care about the site and have been on lolcow since the very beginning, so I’m familiar with the rules and culture of the board - I already try and report posts I see that break the board rules and I work from home so would be able to be flexible with times I would be available.

why is everyone here so obsessed with saging? this board is slow enough without everyone saging every reply lol

No. 11756

>>11755
For the drama boards such as /pt/, /snow/ and /w/ (but especially /pt/) it's kind of important to sage because users can hide saged replies and only read the actual milk/info that's in the thread. Saging on other boards isn't really important but I do it out of habit. Hope that answers your question

No. 11757

lots of bait posting still in the onion thread and anons still refuse to just leave the shit be

There isn't currently a thread for minor notices and changes to the site. For full transparency this will be a thread to inform you all of any updates or changes that aren't necessarily worthy of an big announcement.

Anyone ignoring admin message in the onision thread is getting a red-texted ban. We're not repeating ourselves.

No. 11179

No new rules have been created but we're cracking down on politics and racebait.
All discussion of race whether positive or negative is banned from /ot/ and /m/. Repeat offenders may be permabanned from these boards.

The USA thread is getting locked for violating the agreement that politics may be only discussed in pink-pill and gender critical.

No. 11242

After much discussion within the staff team, we have decided to lock the radfem thread. Please post in gender critical instead for the time being.

In the future, other problematic threads may be locked as well.

I have been ambiguous about my gender up until now, but to prevent confusion, I'd just like to inform everyone that I'm male. (Every other staff member is female.)

I prefer to preserve my anonymity as much as possible, but it feels wrong when someone assumes I'm female and to not deny it, so I think it is best to let everyone know.

I really can't figure out where else to post this, this was the closest thing I thought it was relevant to. mods, have y'all seen this site? [redacted]
I swear this isn't like an ip grabber or something, and definitely use a vpn if you go to the website (I did), but apparently it's run by the same people with the petition to take down lolcow, gg, and kiwifarms lmao, supposedly building dossiers of lolcow posters and mods/admins.

I know the milk is drying up in the Onision thread but anons have taken that opportunity to clog it up with Lainey talk and it’s annoying as hell.

She’s boring and it’s the same stuff that’s been talked about for months. Ew, she’s ugly. She’ll never transition. She’s so boring no wonder Greg hates her. Greg will leave her if she gets top surgery.

I can’t take one more boring repetitive post about her.

No. 11423

The Onision thread is kind of out of control. Half.. ok maybe that's a bit much… a quarter of the posts in there are non-contributory and should never have been made. ie. no one gives a fuck on how all this milk is making you feel, speculation without reasoning or argumentation, newfags bringing up OLD ASS topics that have been done to death (what kind of military discharge. credit to the oldfags who didn't beat that horse to death… again), posts that only reference other posts in the same thread that don't contribute. Can you just like wag your finger at them or something?

No. 11667

Hi mods and admin.

I have a suggestion. The onision thread sometimes gets bait and spam from people trying post fake screenshots and updates.

Would it be an idea to have a locked "verified content" thread that contains only images and updates that have been verified to be true and legit, and maybe with a level of scrutiny so only the most interesting stuff gets archived?
This way, people can easily look up stuff, without having to risk taking bait, or us unknowingly feeding trolls. If its too much work, then whatever. It's just a suggestion. But I think it would help against the motivation to keep trolling the thread, as there's no way (hopefully) that troll content could get inside a verified thread.

It's been a very long time since the community has gotten together to discuss the site and changes. I think it's about time to fix that so I've scheduled a townhall as seen on the announcements.The townhall chat is scheduled for Monday, February 4th, at 9 AM JST via cytube (a link will be posted).

I don't plan on rescheduling the projected date because it's futile to try to meet everyone's preferred time frame. Anyone that can't make it will be able to read a recap in this thread.
Please use this thread to bring up points of discussion you would like to bring up at the townhall.

Since the rule has been applied so unevenly, yes, it needs to be clarified.

Were you in the town hall? What Admin said there seemed contradictory, and the chat was going by so fast not everything was addressed.

>image laws

As in copyright or ownership of the image itself or rights of personality and publicity in countries such as Germany?

>Parents have rights over their child's photos.

Over photos and video taken by others?

No. 8719

>>8718
Admin kind of basically said don't post stuff that would get you in trouble.

The site is in USA so the laws are USA laws. In the USA there are laws against "harassing" children and using their pictures for things other than their intended purpose or without the parent's permission. Parents have the right over their child's image unless they consent to it being used publicly. So even if someone posts their kid on IG it's a real grey area. Child stars don't have the same rights as a celeb's kids who aren't child stars.

I asked because I've seen all of the examples in >>8686 both redtexted and deleted (even memes and stock images) and not despite being reported like >>>/snow/755698. Anons in the Celeb thread have asked for clarification. And look at the ban that happened in the Mommy Vloggers thread for asking for clarification, yet the pics and videos remain.

- we found a new admin based on the applications that were sent in. She has been a lolcow user from the start and we are confident that she'll be a great leader. She'll start sometime during January.

- the new admin will use the applications to pick her own mod team. Whether or not current mods stay will be up to her.

- once the new admin is officially owner of the board, she will move to a new server provider which should offer better performance and fewer concerns about takedowns.

- we have chipped in together to upgrade the current server for the remainder of time before the switch so that lolcow can run smoothly until the new admin takes over.


Sorry for the wait and all the open questions. I'm just posting to share an announcement, the rest will be worked on once the admin is with us.

I was wondering the same thing, I wanted to all the past few months but didn’t have time until recently to do it, and now applications are closed. They probably will sometime in the future but I’m not sure about when or how soon.

Hope we can though!
