This thread is for discussing the results of the Jan 22 - Feb 5 Hellweek of 2024.

It was requested in the original Hellweek thread that we provide some statistics, so we've spent some time putting together a spreadsheet with some stats which you can access here! Please note that the spreadsheet has 2 pages which you can switch using the tabs at the bottom. The first page is statistics about users, and the second page is statistics specifically about moderation.

For those who don't have the time to read that, here is a brief overview (the spreadsheet has more detailed information):

I agree. And because we have so many newfags, they keep biting his retarded bait because they don’t know how to clock him yet. The debacle after the dumbass shit autosage was ridiculous and I get the sense farmhands like to let him run free because he argues for them and shits up the thread to drown out any valid complaints.

A nice, cosy, official banner thread to submit your new banners for the benefit and expansion of the website.

Banners must be 300x100

Banners should mention the site directly or indirectly. "lolcow.farm" written, a picture of a cow, etc.

It predates the schism between LC and 4chan. This image is the earliest example I have and it dates from 2013. There was a lot of crossover of memes between the weeb boards on 4chan and this included /a/, /jp/ and /cgl/.

if that were true there'd be a thread on every irrelevant mommyvlogger influencer but there isn't. I get some people are attached to her and dakota as legacy cows but so far nobody's been able to give a summary of her recent drama because there hasn't been any.

No. 73443

I'm glad the whiteknighting is getting shut down. The posters hi cowing about Kiki are retarded. Thread is currently slow, it's possible to ignore dumb posts without WKing every single one. No point in arguing with morons over what has and hasn't been milk. It's possible to believe that Tom is ugly and Taylor is dumb while also believing that Levi is doing fine. Nuance, try it.

The anon/s claiming everyone is Kiki and everyone in /w/ is the same person hasn't really thought this through given that Kiki defends Dakota to this day in her lives.

Thank you for casting your votes!

Beating out the 7 days of Kwanzaa, the 8 days of Hanukkah, and the 12 days of Christmas, we bring you the 15 Lolcow Awards! This year we had typical ups and downs with our cows churning out milk some weeks and going bone dry others. We faced tinfoiling and fears that the site would face another Bunker Thread. We laughed, we cried, we drew and we watched moovies. Many of you beat SpaceX’s record as your sides have been launched into orbit endlessly over the cows we celebrate today. So, Merry Milkmas and a Happy New Year! You can view the full results of the voting by clicking here!

the password is so you can delete only your own posts and not other anons'. usually your browser autofills it and you don't notice it, but on ipad it causes the keyboard to pop up. I've noticed it too

Excuse my autism, but I've noticed posters sometimes seem to mix up the following terms. I see this on other websites, too. This is understandable, since the terms are vague and not widely known.

These are subjective to some degree, but here is how I personally define them.

Samefagging

This is a general term for deceptive posting. It can mean the following things:

- Taking on more than one persona in a thread to make it seem like your view has wider support than it actually does. This is also called sockpuppeting. May involve replying to your own posts agreeing with yourself, or significantly changing writing style to make it seem like a different person is also giving similar positive or negative remarks. Particularly dedicated samefags may try to use a different IP address as well.

- Making multiple posts back-to-back, without obvious indication they were all made by you. This is not always deceptive, though is often annoying.

- May also apply to general false or omitted self-identification. For example, if the subject of a /pt/ thread started secretly and anonymously posting in her own thread to disagree with people or defend herself, this may also be called samefagging. There may be a better term for this, but if there is, I'm not yet aware of it.


Self-posting

Posting about yourself in any way, whether anonymous or self-identifying. For example: posting a picture of yourself, linking to your own profiles, giving excessive details about your life, etc. Self-posts are completely acceptable in some threads and some contexts, but they usually are frowned upon otherwise. You shouldn't try to make yourself stand out on an anonymous board. Valid spellings also include self posting and selfposting.


Vendetta / vendettafag / vendetta-posting

Posting about someone as if you are a random person who happens to dislike them, when in reality you have some sort of personal connection or grudge. Often involves samefagging. Generally has no relation to self-posting, except in cases of self-victimization. In cases where you present the chan with an implicit or explicit "call to action", to further your vendetta, this is also called a personal army (PA) request. It often involves misleading or deceptive information.

An example of a vendetta post would be arguing with a girl on social media, and later posting a thread calling her a whore. Asking people to send things to her parents, or falsely claiming she's violated some site's terms of service and requesting people report her, or including her address and phone number in the post, would be a vendetta post as well as a personal army request.

This isn't in reference to any specific post but I've been seeing the world "malding" used a lot. I thought it was a word meaning "getting male pattern baldness," meaning you're a moid + you're raging so much you're going bald.

Does it just mean "raging" now? Is there no inherent moid accusation anymore? It's a real question, thanks in advance for the input.

No. 72282

>>72267
Yeah, it means raging so hard that you go bald, and imo the term only makes sense when applied to moids. It's male behavior in both aspects. It started with Twitch gamers. The male implication is there even if it's not explicit

No. 72338

>>72267
Twitterinos stole it from radfems on tumblr I'm pretty sure. I used to only see it referred to males "male balding" due to anger and initially mostly just used against troons when they were mad at feminists over whatever issue as a ywnbaw joke. Then twitter started using it recently and now I see it against everyone when mald = male balding and doesn't work against women. it's explicitly an anti male thing mocking their inferior hair quality so of course that couldn't stick, it had to be sanitized

No. 72342

>>72282
>>72338
thank you both. I was genuinely confused at seeing it used here towards other farmers (with no indication otherwise that the poster was calling them moids). I'm not on twitter so I must have missed the change.

Sad though, malding for male anger was such a funny image, it used to make me smile.
