Second edition!

Please post all general issues and complaints here. If you want mods to do something, or have some issue with or suggestion for site content, you should use this thread.

>>2 should only be used for technical issues and suggestions (can't load site, site slow, bugs, site feature requests). This thread is for non-technical issues.

No. 4846

Thanks for keeping up with the incel posts. Its still happening and I imagine that it won't die down for some time. My only complaint is how a lot of the threads in /snow/ are falling prey to nitpicking/vendettachan-tier posting. The old admin had a bit of a better grasp on curbing that stuff. (not defending them, I'm just saying how I remember the site being in 2015.)

No. 4852

Can you warn that one retarded anon who keeps posting things like "you don't have to write sage in your post"/"Thanks for telling us you saged" etc in a bunch of threads? It's OT and pointless. Typing "saged" or "saged because" is an ancient and common chan lingo, anyway.

No. 4854

There's been an obvious influx of PULL since their Taylor thread was redirected here two days ago. I've been seeing several anons who shit up threads.

>one who constantly uses ~this stuff uwu~ in every post

>one who now literally sages every post of theirs after being told to fuck off yet their comments still inevitably derail the thread and cause infighting
>another who types like an autistic 12 year old, spelling errors abound and blatantly doesn't read the thread

These faggots need to fucking go. Ever since they showed up threads have gotten slower.

No. 4857

I know there's no way to actually do this, but I really wish there was a way to ban people that come here from PULL or reddit.

No. 4858

There is a lot of whiteknighting and fighting about what to discuss and not discuss in the taylor dean thread. I assume an influx from when she posted on Twitter but it's just a dumpster fire of infighting and blogging

No. 4859

there's literal cp in /ot/ that hasn't been removed for hours, i've reported and hidden the thread (i'm sure i'm not the only one who has either) but it's still there and i don't know how mods could miss it

>>4857

agreed

No. 4860

>>4859
I've reported and hidden it too and it's still there after multiple hours.
Come on, mods, what the fuck.

No. 4861

>>4858

There are one (or a few) posters on the Taylor Dean thread who are clogging up the thread yelling at people for posting about Taylors possible munchieness. Appears to be a person with a chronic illness who is upset that people are questioning Taylor's claims to have the same illness. These poster(s) seem to be under the delusion that the thread is only supposed to be a way to help Taylor and her animals. And to top it off they haven't learned to sage.

No. 4863

>>4861
>>4858

i agree. it seems like its the same anon replying to anyone who has the nerve to discuss the munchiness. and after many people have told the anon not to police the discussion, every single time the anon responds to clog up the thread with her screeching.

there are many new posters in that thread, can't sage, and whiteknight like crazy. i think the thread might have been posted in other sites because it doesn't seem normal imho. i don't know what should be done to the thread to stop the fighting and the arguing.

No. 4864

>>4863
I've gone ahead and issued bans to everyone causing issues. When stuff like this happens just please report everything you see that breaks rules and we'll get on it as quickly as possible.

No. 4865

Momokun thread is a hot mess and ridiculous. Newfags are shitting it up and instead of reporting shit like adults, they want to comment and start infighting. Holy shit.

No. 4866

Someone posted cp again last night, I'm assuming the same person as last time. It was up for like four or five hours, which I think we can all agree is far too long. Just thinking that mods should plan on being more vigilant on /ot/ around the times they were posted. I don't think this is something to take lightly.

No. 4874

The infighting between flakes and ex mod on the onion flakes thread is literal garbage. Can we please contain it or autosage the shitshow of a thread?

No. 4875

Why are two year old dead threads popping up on the front pages of PT and Snow like the quirky & edgelord circle threads?
Also the sudden terf vs transtard fight in the June thread was a royal mess, like what the actual fuck.

No. 4876

>>4875
I've noticed this as well for the past week or so. The edgelord thread in particular.

No. 4877

We’re being raided with gore by the fuckin incels again all over /pt/ god damnit

No. 4878

I thought we had to OP threads via a farmhand (or something) in /pt. How are we being raided, if so?

No. 4879

>>4878
That’s what I’m wondering? I mean I know a lot of times people make threads in pt and they’re moved over to snow. But now it’s the first 3 pages of pt and even snow. Ugh

No. 4880

And now tempcow too has been raided. Can mods get on this

No. 4881

Ot and g and int too now

No. 4882

LC is going to shit at straight up drastic rates, CP has several times stayed on the board for actual hours even when reported and when raided there seems to never be a mod or farmhand on staff to help, also the constant influx of people from PULL and other sites who sperg out and try to call farmers 'newfags' when they can't calm down & learn the rules etc yet nobody gets banned but someone bumps the moomoo thread and is put out to pasture. Plus dead threads keep being bumped to first page and so on.

No. 4883

It seems like to me new admin hasn't had the time to recruit a large enough staff to actively mod

No. 4886

>>4885
>>4882

We currently have a staff of ten, which is pretty large. It is very difficult to balance needing to expanding the staff with finding staff members who are trustworthy. I've been working on adding staff in different time zones so we can have better response times, but expecting constant immediate action is just not feasible, especially right around the holidays. The polish spam was cleared within two hours. I'm sorry, I'm doing my best and am still working on trying to make things better for you all.

No. 4887

>>4886
Thank you, I know it must be hard, maybe you need more insomniacs lol but really thank you and we all appreciate it, it was just fucking annoying when they started spamming important threads.

No. 4888

>>4886
staff has been doing great at keeping things cleaned up and dealing with issues. for anons to expect things to be robotic is absurd. thank you for doing what you do admin-sama!

No. 4889

>>4888
I second this!

It's a free site and the farmhands aren't getting paid, I'm not sure what people expect. New year's day and the polish shit was gone in a few hours, I think that's pretty good.

No. 4890

I can take a few hours out of the holidays to make sure things are in order but the one thing that helps the most is reporting. /ot/ and /g/ are getting alot more supervision since we've heard the cp complaints.

No. 4891

Yeah, I just came back from vaycay and realized I was banned from posting because of unpopular comments I made in the Melanie Martinez thread.

Your ban implied I didn't have any other posts associated with the IP, which is wrong because I not only posted prior the comment that got me banned, but after as well in the same thread. I was also posting about SHINee in the celeb gossip thread at the same time about Moon Boy's suicide.

After being on this site for a while, that because 3 little babies can't handle my opinion and call me a robot, you side with them and ban me on what basis?

Like, what guidelines are you using to determine if someone's a robot and more importantly, my comments weren't anything better or worse than other comments made earlier in the thread, and actually contributed to the topic , not just a circlejerk of "omg no one cares, must be a robot", and I was the one who got burned?

I wrote this back in the appeals comment, but you guys need to be transparent about this shit, because not only are you wrong on me being guy/robot, you're wrong on the IP tracking as well.

This /r9k/ boogeyman shit is getting annoying. It's no better than their autistic screeching about gender posting

No. 4892

>>4891
Hi, I accepted your ban appeal upon investigating. It seems someone made a mistake so apologies. Your appeal did help clear up our error.

No. 4893

The John Kuckian thread is full of obvious samefagging and whiteknights and even is giving me vibes of kuckian himself defending him at the thread, I've already reported the suspicious post, can you check them ips?

Sorry if this is the wrong place but I don't know where else to ask, but were the incel threads nuked? I haven't been here in some months. If so, are they perma banned?

No. 4900

I don't want to shit up a thread with testing so can anyone tell me (maybe put it in Info) with youtube box, do I put the full URL with https:// etc. in there or is it just the video id like "96zvpfqeNjs"

Could a mod please explain why the racial slur "Jap" is allowed? It has been used at least twice in posts about Logan Paul.

>>465947


>…can these weebs please shut up about especially their poor little japs being oh so hurt by this?


Replace "japs" with another slur such as "niggers" or "spics". Would the post still be acceptable?

No. 4904

>>4903
Because no one else cares but you. No one else is making a fuss derailing threads because an anon said jap. That is the only reason words become banned.
You're okay with terms like 'newfag' and 'oldfag' which is a completely normal term on here but 'jap' goes too far?

No. 4905

File: 1515659742362.webm (1.22 MB, 840x1080, DSP does it again.webm)

I barely post here, due to real life commitments, but here goes.

People have accused lolcow of irrelevant, malicious and vendetta threads. The point of lolcows has never been to single out a person due to personality traits that deviate from normal, but due to bad behavior and outrageous responses by them. This is how I see a lolcow, as a person that is secretly being laughed out due to the outrageous behavior and their compulsive need to be correct no matter what and thus provide laughs at their own expense.

For example, the Penny Underbust thread is a wild-ride. Sure, she is a freaky fetish model who has no education and lives in nippon. In other words, chances are that is the only way she can make money. Yet the thread is 100% focused on how she has a freaky fetish body and as a plus size woman, can not have an eating disorder. I've followed Penny for a few years, and while she is weird, all there is to her is that she's an uneducated person who does fetish modelling to pay the bills but seems to loathe herself for the path she chose. You can find a dime a dozen of those in everyday life, no big deal.

Considering the Martina BIG thread was banned, who is a similar style fetish model who spouts just as weird fetish shit, why is the Penny Underbust thread allowed to exist?

I like the current admin, from my interactions with her, she seems very levelheaded and listens. I have no problem with the staff in general. I just wish the rules and guidelines enforced would stay consistent and stupid threads that offer no real content other than gawking would be taken care of. It was a refreshing thing to see Momo's thread be moved back into snow, it had derailed into variations of "wow, she is so fat, what a small head!".

tldr i dislike lolcows rule enforcing inconsistency

No. 4906

>>4904

Context. "Newfag" is not used to mock gay people or people's perceived sexuality.

In the comment I cited, "japs" is used to mock Japanese people. Is this not race-baiting?

No. 4907

>>4906

Put another way (and aside from the fact that the anons who recognize that many Japanese were offended are not necessarily weebs), weebs can be criticised and mocked without mocking Japanese people.

No. 4908

>>4905
We would have to close /snow/ altogether with this logic. What makes Penny so much more special than every other flake? The only 'banned subjects' are the ones you'll see in the rules.

>>4906
>>4907
Slurs are allowed for the most part, unless they derail threads. You must be new to image board culture.
Race baiting would be "stupid japs are all pedophiles" trying to provoke a response.

No. 4909

>>4908
My point being, that a lot of "snowflakes" are no more than personal vendetta and it would be nice to have a smaller but higher quality catalogue. My view of the matter is not the only one, nor am I claiming it to be the only right one.

It would be interesting to know how is the enforcement of the rule 6 and 6.1 enforced and how it's application to a thread decided?

>6. Do not post about someone who doesn't have any drama simply because you personally dislike them. (vendetta posting)

>6.1 Do not post vendetta threads in the direct or indirect guise of a self-post, by impersonating someone you have a grudge against.

Those threads are the only foreign language threads allowed in /ot/ or anywhere else. International users are not allowed to post in non-English languages outside of those specific threads.

No. 4915

i think the momokun thread should be moved back to /pt/. honestly its just a convenience thing for me, plus momokun is an established cow and deserves her place in the main board with all the other popular cows. the move to snow has just made it more annoying to check her thread along with the other larger cows i follow.

Can someone do something about the faggot who keeps spamming childporn on OT? I’v reported a million times but he keeps going.

No. 4925

Honestly getting sick and tired of blatant newfags in /snow/ trying to police threads about what is and isn't "milky enough" for their standards. People need to be reminded that they're regular posters, not mods, and opening a thread or not liking a certain thread in the first place doesn't give them any authority over what is posted.

No. 4926

>>4925
Samefag but seriously can somebody make a post or shit in the rules about the differences between /pt/ and /snow/ and what to expect in either of them? Because I'm getting tired of having to explain for weeks now why certain shit belongs in which board.

No. 4927

dark blue = they saged
green = they didn't sage
green followed by light bluefarmhand = moderator

Fuck I can't remember what I came here to bitch about. Answered a question at least, I guess.

No. 4928

>>4927
Shit, didn't mean to spoiler.

And I remember now. My bad.

When we report something, if we leave the report blank, does it still go through/is it dealt with? When I'm on mobile I don't feel like typing out a reason for posts where viewing the post should make it instantly obvious why it was reported, but I'll stop half assing it if blank reports are just ignored/not received.

So admins aren't gonna do anything about threads not fully loading the posts and the cp poster?

banning meds/armchair psychology when?

Fuck I was just coming to see if admin or a farmhand had replied with any input towards banning it because of the poopshaft of BPD b.s. in that exact thread

It's not even good or entertaining speculation ever, it's just projected muh mental illness blogposting.

No. 4943

People who post screenshots and shit on their threads really don't need to be saging their posts. I don't know where this attitude of "always sage" came from, but nothing actually gets bumped anymore and the front page of /pt/ is like a wasteland and the catalogue is clogged with dead threads.

No. 4944

>>4943
The entirety of snow is just infighting, derailing, and samefagging, so much to the point where it seems like every thread is getting bumped with something along the lines of "KEK GO READ THE RULEZ NEWFAG" and "WOW YR SUCH A SALTY UGLY CUNT". I'm honestly feeling at this point that reporting these kinds of meaningless posts is just going to do nothing, and I swear to god it seems like the same fucking person on every thread doing this. It started on the Dakota thread but now it's spreading to every other thread like fucking aids. I know I've said this before, that I feel like a whiny bitch, but it's getting so irritating trying to have an on-topic conversation only to be met with some sperg trying to derail everything.

No. 4945

I am really disappointed with how you handled and then acted in the Momokun thread, Admin. Please confer with your helpers in the future, and since this seems to be a sore subject, make sure they know you want her to stay in /snow/.

No. 4973

the Momokun thread went two weeks of near constant milk and is moved back to /snow/ but the kiki thread is still in /pt/ despite twice the amount of nitpicking and infighting, like???

two threads is way too long to be an oversight. the farmhands even said there was talk of moving us back to /pt/ since we were getting better. we had nitpicking for like… a couple posts and it's back to /snow/?? with no warning? and the excuse of 'a mistake' that went on for two weeks??

No. 4974

>>483029
I thought the situation for Momo threads was "there's too much infighting and nitpicking therefore Momo threads are shoved in snow, but it's kept on close watch and viable for returning to pt". Farmers have been on good behavior ever since and we've gotten back to pt during Collegegate, then you just up and move us back without explanation after a week of milk. A WEEK. Seriously wtf, communicate or whatever better, and just confirm that Momo threads will stay in snow for good. Jfc.

my friend was banned for 11 WEEKS for not saging in the momo thread right after it got moved to /snow/ momo belongs in /pt/ more than any other cow on that board. To me and everyone else, this is an obvious abuse of power. There was no infighting, no nitpicking, nothing. This decision is absolute bullshit

No. 4976

>>4972
Agreed. If the milk was dry then it would be one thing, but this is the most milk the Mariah thread has seen in a long while, with people actually working together and being civil to one another. If it being moved back to /pt/ was a mistake then it should have been fixed right away, or at least have had a post explaining it was a mistake and future threads will go back to /snow/.

No. 4977

>>4976
but there was a post by an admin or farmhand when it was originally moved back to /pt/ that it was fine and as long as our behavior was good it would stay there. and it was good. I dont understand why we were moved whatsoever

No. 4978

>>4975
11 weeks for not saging??????? even if your friend was a repeat abuser of not saging thats a little extreme. especially if it was right after the thread was moved, i think a lot of people didn't even notice it got moved and weren't saging their shit since you can't sage on /pt/

although i would like to see admin's side of this story

No. 4979

>>4977
Yeah… I think admin is trying to say it was moved back without their knowledge? and I guess they never noticed it for a whole 9 days, which is just a huge problem in of itself. But if Admin didn't noticed it back on /pt/ for that long, then they should have just let it stay, especially since there is milk flowing.

No. 4980

>>4975
This is fucking bullshit tbh, people probably weren't even aware of the change. Admin is completely insane.

No. 4981

>>4977
Admin claims that was a 'miscommunication' I honestly think she made mistake and moved us back to /snow/ and is just being cunty and won't admit it. Like, we talked about moo's thread in the fucking post she posted about no more sage. Like, I cannot for 1 second believe she didn't see the moo threads in pt for 9 days, we've created 2 threads there. She either won't admit her mistake moving us back to /snow/ or she's pissed about all the callout shit we're doing.

No. 4982

I’m also confused. There’s actually a lot of milk right now and she’s starting to crash. Not only that; but a lot of people are working together and the in fighting has been minimal. Seems very strange to me? It would be another story if admin was clearer or explained themselves a bit more, but they’re definitely chimping right now

No. 4983

>>4981
she basically admitted that it was her mistake by saying that the farmhand who moved it "wasn't at fault", but theres much better ways to handle the situation than abruptly moving the thread without even corresponding with farmhands to see if it was possibly moved to /pt/ for a reason

Exactly. Especially after the new no sage rule in pt. People were getting used to that and now have to immediately switch back. I think there should be a little leniency about the saging until people get back into the habit. It's like a clusterfuck right now with the pt rules and staff aren't talking to each other?

What is it about the Moo threads that causes the farmhands and admins to immediately want to send it to snow? You have threads for people like Margo and Mira where the only milk is their insane instagram/twitter comments yet Moo's collegegate, stealing and constant twitter fights aren't pt worthy? I'm so confused what warrants a thread to be in pt and what banishes it to snow. Especially since people have been acting alright from what I've seen ever since we were moved back. There was maybe one instance of people sperging over her cats not being abused but that fizzled away real fast. Is that why we were moved?

I think we need a town hall meeting for the anons that care enough to get a concise definition of what "infighting", "nitpicking" and "cowtipping" is. We need these written clearly in the rules. If not, let's make a poll. As a main contributor (I know, I know wankfest) of the Momokun thread, I could agree with the first time because it really was a infested mess with summerfags. This time this was a VERY sudden decision on Admin's part and now everyone's confused. We went through 3 threads with nothing BUT milk. The only thing that I could see labeled as provocative was the whole charm debacle that anons decided to make into a project. If that was the issue, then we need a official reason WHY.

THESE. What counts as nitpicking? Pointing out how huge she is compared to her shoops and claims of working out, plus how she's untalented at posing and shooping as a "professional"? That's where some her milk comes from though? And we really need a definition of what's pt worthy. The milk has been flowing non stop then it's suddenly banished back to snow for a 9 days old "mistake". The first time it was moved back to snow I welcome it since it's getting shitty, but this time we need an explanation other than "whoops I did dun goofed lol". What do you have against Momo threads? Haven't the past 3 threads have enough milk? Wasn't the infighting few and short? It's so sudden.

As a long time lurker, I've never been more confused about the logic behind a lot of these decisions. I imagine the silence from admin and farmhands is because they may be discussing it behind the scenes (if that is a thing)? Even so, they could clarify this just so everyone isn't left in the dark.

So much this. Cows like Margo, Mira and Kiki haven't had actual milk in ages, and their threads haven't been moved to /snow/. Kiki threads in particular consist in remarks about nasolabial folds, balding etc. Onion threads are milky once every 3-4 months and there's always some infighting going on. And now you tell me that Moo isn't a cow as well?
It's all so strange. Also, if you can ban people for 11 weeks for not saging, you can also ban them for infighting, derailing and nitpicking so it doesn't ruin the thread.

It's a plausible scenario. It's part of why 4Chan no longer allows 'call out' threads, if I remember correctly, and thus part of why lolcow even exists. Tinfoil away, cause my thoughts were it wasn't an issue till Adrienne Curry got involved in this mess.

The Momokun threads will not resolve themselves with site staff swooping in to moderate when they feel like it but disappearing once we actually congregate in /meta/ to fix the problem.

I have been making an effort like other anons to report actual "infighting" (subjective at this point) and off topic discussion but no one has made an effort to delete or discipline. Moving from /pt/ to /snow/ has and did cause negative growth to the thread itself. While issuing different protocols to two different boards might make sense in a moderation aspect, it doesn't make sense to a population of the board who partake in Momokun threads and did cause widespread confusion.

For instance, since moving back to /snow/:
>people (presumably, not a mod so I don't know) getting kicked/banned for not saging when we were in /PT/ before. There was 0 grace period for people to realize the board has moved and that /snow/ is still a sage board. When was the news of the new sage rule going to be a site wide bulletin? /PT/ IS the main board advertised on the front page of the site, yaknow.

>people actually cowtipping because Moo caused a dry spell for herself after the twitter campaign started. This is a usual practice she does to let the dust clear but new fags won't know that.


>Not understanding individual thread culture is the problem. Mariah/Momokun is notorious for stealing from this board when she is feeling especially spicy. We started to watermark certain photoshopped images and "memes" because she's shady. We were warned doing so will advertise our board for newfags. Correct me if I'm wrong but I've seen YOUTUBE DRAMA CHANNELS refer to us (MaskedBabe, HereForTheTea2) and mention us by name on their social media. Are you going to talk to them? A watermark will not affect us if it's us protecting OUR work in the thread.


>reposting up the wazoo; people NOT reading the thread and posting doubles/older content. I could blame newfags or I could blame anons who get trigger happy and want to make fun of Momo for the same shit again. May I suggest we need to make a habit of saying "possible repost" and auto-sage if that is the case so we aren't bubbling up the thread with older material. I'm a offender of this too, I need to learn my own habits. Which brings me to this next tidbit…



Is there a definitive reason for not being able to delete posts after a 30 minute window? This also comes with not requesting mods to remove it, as the error message says. Doesn't make sense to me. Tried to search it on here, can't find a answer.

And I still don't understand how Admin and farmhands have such bad communication that a thread can be moved from snow to pt, have new threads open, then Admin just swoop in and move the thread without an explanation after 9 days. Also the Admin not willing to take Momo's pic taking habit into account and make compromises on the watermark images is unreasonable too.

The issue was discussed within the staff team and the watermarks were the tipping point.
>Correct me if I'm wrong but I've seen YOUTUBE DRAMA CHANNELS refer to us (MaskedBabe, HereForTheTea2) and mention us by name on their social media. Are you going to talk to them? A watermark will not affect us if it's us protecting OUR work in the thread.
We've never appreciated namedropping of any sort, we just expect farmers to know better than to direct newfags onto here. You would be surprised to see how much of derailment and infighting is caused by users who refuse to integrate and read the rules. Again, this is one of the reasons the moo thread was originally moved to /snow/ the first time.
>May I suggest we need to make a habit of saying "possible repost" and auto-sage
We tend to discourage spoon feeding milk but reposts are fine if it's relevant to the discussion. It would usually be saged but there is no more sage in /pt/ so users shouldn't be penalized for it.
>Is there a definitive reason for not being able to delete posts after a 30 minute window? This also comes with not requesting mods to remove it, as the error message says.
Most chan boards do not allow posts to be deleted, it's a feature the board has to correct mistakes or sensitive information. Staff can delete content that breaks the rules or is possibly of illegal nature.

>I'm not quite sure what this obsession is with not bringing new people (new fags) to this board

The definition of cowtipping does not equal inviting newfags. Newfags can be a problem but those that read the rules and are familiar with chan culture integrate quite well.

Now cowtipping can bring in new members but are you taking into account what kind? Are you accounting whiteknights and trolls? Derailment and infighting degrades the quality of the threads when an influx of newfags come in, and take into account how they found their way on here. Do you really want a bunch of twitter users coming in at a rapid rate?
Newfags/whiteknights aren't even the bigger issues with cowtipping, we don't want another kaka.

>Not everyone is going to sperg up a thread or spam it into oblivion.


Obviously, but have you noticed how often spamchans and moo whiteknights post during happenings?

>Also, why can't we discuss why the thread was moved with no explanation?


You can discuss and give your thoughts but I think it's better for the admin to address it themselves.

Why is it such a big deal it was moved in the first place? I mean I don't care the thread was moved but the out the blue nature of it partnered with zero/cryptic explanation makes no sense.

We watermark in the Moo thread because, again, she has stolen our content to make it "her own" (i.e. aside from pic related, she's tried baiting them by asking on twitter who made it). We do it for protection, essentially.

If it is as spread all around Twitter as >>5042 have said, wouldn't anons that keep tabs on Momo on Twitter notice it faster than Admin team? And couldn't you have thrown a screenshot or something and say "hey this and this ended up outside of lolcow so stop watermarking"? I don't recall any mention by Admin or farmhands saying they saw watermarked images outside of lolcow when giving warnings, why is the fact that pics are (or "were", if you did put a stop to it as you have said) spreading on Twitter only came up now?

Look, all I want is an explanation to Admin and farmhands' decisions and actions. What is the reason Momo's thread was moved back to snow? Was it nitpicking? Watermarked images? I find it hard to believe it's just a 9 day old mistake when we haven't been given a decent explanation here in meta for so long, and I ended up with more questions. What's the criteria for a thread to be in pt? What counts as nitpicking? And where are the widespread watermarked images on Twitter?

I'm not convinced that Momo's thread should be moved back to snow, or that the Admin should be this cryptic about decisions, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, just give us an explanation so we'll at least communicate better on this, less tinfoiling, less contradictions.

>>5026
I'd like to make another argument to this: if Momo visting threads on her own accord since thread 1 is still cowtipping since we know she sees it, and we know the Ostrengas visits threads, then wouldn't posting in Kiki or Dakota's threads also count as cowtipping?

though, going forward maybe we should watermark it with minna-san or something, cause that'd be kind of funny.

Can you please please please be more visible when banning people who reply to bait? Slap the posts with a big ass red banned for taking the bait, or something like that. I'm sick and tired of every goddamn thread ending in a screeching match because dumb-ass anons can't get it through their thick ass skulls that they are getting trolled.

Put a stop to what?
Where did you find these images and who did it? Suspicious. I agree with other anons who are weirded out that it's been days and no one is providing evidence, just skirting around the issue.This isnt even about lack of farmhands anymore. You're making decisions while we carry about our usual business and when we finally notice its a HUGE backpedal for answers that arent proven by staff on this site.
Transparency about the Momokun thread means better work practices for not only anon but for farmhands in charge of cleaning the board. You aren't giving us a chance to redeem ourselves if we don't even know what were doing?? Or if we're not doing anything wrong at all??

just wanted to casually mention that I really admire the increased reaction speed regarding reports. Im never able to keep up with background information (like admins and mod teams changing and what not), but happened to notice a sudden change in the positive direction and wanted to adress that.

Is there any way we can get some kind of counter announcement to the pt one about no sage in snow, informing people to still sage?

So since townhall is being rescheduled, was there a REASON? "Schedule issues" when you initiated today for a town hall meeting and knew you had to be there seems like a extreme excuse.

Of course there's a reason, two days notice before a townhall is pretty last minute so it's been rescheduled so more people get the memo.

It's what we wanted to prevent when users were crusading on twitter. We can't keep track of all of twitter but we can discourage cowtipping the best we can.

Here is a more accurate statement:
Photos with lolcow watermarks could have been spread on twitter and other social media, photos were definitely watermarked here. That is a fact.

I know that probably isn't true but since I can only base my feelings off of what I see actively posted, that's how it seems to me. Not all farmhand posts, but a lot of them, make it sound like they have some kind of secret jaded mean girls club.

I'm still a bit confused as I got banned for 24 hours for asking what happened to tomato in the onion thread. I was told to lurk more and not ask redundant questions. I've actually been a long time lurker on the site and I noticed we hadn't heart from tomato in ages and was wondering if he was still a patreon or not as I hadn't seen that discussed. I don't see how it was redundant seeing as it was relevant to the thread and it hadn't been established that tomato had completely cut ties? I'm just wondering if farmhand can explain how it's redundant just so I know for future

A different Farmhand here so I might not be 100% on their reasoning, but it's usually not a good thing to do to bring up unrelated subjects. While tomato before had something to do with onision, now he does not.

I was temp banned just for asking if discussing sams live stream was allowed, when another farmer told me to test it and see if I’d get banned I replied saying that I’ve never been banned before and didn’t want to risk it.
The irony here is that I was told I was ‘whinning’ for genuine concerns relating to the ridiculous over moderation that is killing this site, and then banned.
Does that not prove everyone’s point and validate their concerns with posting anything unless it’s 100% drama related? Asking a simple question and then being told you’re whining and then banned is fucking ridiculous.

I had no idea how long I was actually banned for since this happened over night while I was asleep. I was hardly derailing, I asked a relevant question and my concern was valid.

Lolcow has turned into the office complex of imageboards, no one knows what's going on anymore and the seniors don't have a clue either
What exactly are the rules anymore? Specific IPs are allowed run wild while others are getting banned for non-issues

If you keep banning like simpletons then this board will sink like the Titanic, it's already hit the iceberg quite frankly
Lighten up with the banhammers, even worrying about a banhammer openly is resulting in bans here

I literally just asked if sams livestreams were allowed to be discussed in the onion livestream thread and was banned which PROVES mine and everyone else’s point that the moderation here is a complete fucking joke. Like the other anon said, it’s not about the five minute ban, it’s that I was temp banned for asking if something was okay to discuss instead of just getting a straight answer.
The mods are sensitive, ban happy, and on a power trip it’s embarrassing what this site has become.

But remember, in the townhall chat Admin said that mods do not flag/redtext all posts which break the rules or incur bans. Thus anons have no way of knowing if offending anons are being banned, and newfags are unable to learn from seeing examples.

I did what you suggested and ended up with a 1 year ban. Whoever moderates the Kelly thread doesn't respond to my questions sent through the reporting system and still hasn't sorted this out, they seem to be ban-happy. I'm getting annoyed now. Its been more than 2 weeks and still not fixed.

Think about what that means versus what you think it means. Someone created a thread early, the livestream thread was for livestreams not commentary. A 30 minute ban isn't going to turn your world upside down.

There is no need for there to be 3 active onision threads, another farmhand can unlock it when there is actually a livestream.

Yes, thank you for your response. I've considered it but I don't want to lose my anonymity by emailing. At this point, I can't see why Admin/Farmhand would acknowledge an email when they haven't managed to sort the ongoing tech issue or bothered to reply to the multiple messages I've sent via the reporting system.

Admin/Farmhand

Any chance of sorting this out or not? My ban appears to have been lifted yet my screen is still in reverse? If I post on the thread I'm sure the Mod will accuse me of being Kelly again, along with someone else's IP address along with another fucking ban. Anyone else having problems?

No. 5548

I think the Shoe0nhead thread either has a lot of newfags or people who don't read any of the prior threads at all. At least a quarter to half of stuff posted are things that were discussed or shown in previous threads (though I'll be fair, there has been a good amount of milk in the current thread). I'm not really sure what can be done to combat the issue, but I've seen same pictures of June's cooking in the current thread and the last two threads, for example.

Why are mods ignoring that people are annoyed by the way the onion threads are handled? this "if you don't like it, leave" attitude is absolutely not welcoming.

I updated my router on Saturday, so that's only 2 IPs, since Saturday. When banning me, I've been shown other anons IP and accused of being the cow - you sent me her IP or what? I was given permission to ban evade. I have not even ban evaded. I've asked for help, but you guys don't, wont or cannot fix the technical problems. Posting on the thread to ask admin/farmhand questions because that's the only way to see if they have left a message or lifted a ban. Or am I missing something?
You say that here is the best place to discuss tech issues easily - it obviously isn't! You don't fix the problems, you say you'll pass messages on to the relative farmhand to fix the issue but nothing happens, just an apology and a promise to fix it that day. They don't even respond to questions asked through reporting system. That's why I asked a question in the thread.
I can see that other anons are having problems with the lack of admin and ban-happy mods.
Lolcow was fun until 18 days ago when YOU had a problem with your 'accidental router ban with the permaban system you use for incels'. How many other anons has this affected? You're staff don't appear to be following the same rules. Why has this been so difficult? I've just read an earlier post where you said permabanned is very rare, haha. I've accumulated a vast array of them, all because of YOUR mistakes. With running such a large imageboard, with so many users, I'd expect you to able to fix a small issue instead of it snowballing to this. Necroing threads as a last resort to speak with a staff member. Come on Lolcow, you're better than this right?

You close the temp thread in meta cause you're too annoyed to deal with the complaints, then people ask in the livestream thread what's going on cause admins fucked up with shutting it down yesterday, which can happen, but then please don't act like people are too stupid to use threads.

Gotta be honest here, since temp went down main has been a mess of warnings and bans and normally for the most minor infraction of rules, which actively discourages any posting, it's hugely apparent that most users from temp kept /pt fully updated, many migrated from /pt to temp after years on here and now with the hostility and us vs them mindset the anons that provide milk aren't doing it so much anymore because of the Reeeeeeeeing anons from main, the same main anons who have, for the past three weeks denounced tempanons and ridiculed the milk brought in with cries of "We don't need you, we can do it better" but all of the milk has turned sour because nothing is getting posted.

if you don't want mods to temporarily lock livestream threads then stop bitching about temp when we're supposed to actually be discussing the stream holy shit thread quality has gone down significantly because anons are taking complaints about the site onto the threads and it distracts from grease

No. 5583

The onion thread was slowing down b4 temp … Just saying. I think it's obnoxious we have. Live stream thread a main thread and a patreon thread

No. 5584

I think there's just a wave of newfags from temp and they need to read the rules. The problem with the main thread is that people keep ranting and repeating shit that has been discussed on previous threads 100 times already. If there wasn't so much infighting and nitpicking and people mostly touched on relevant milk, I'm sure there would be wiggle room for some Sam discussion here and there and the bans wouldn't be so many.

Anons have been constantly disobedient with the rules so we shouldn't expect them to let anything slide. I think if we just did things like we're supposed to the threads would be 10x better to go through. Not everyone's here 24/7 and wants to read through infighting about shoe size for paragraphs to get to the milk.

No. 5585

Samefag

Maybe anons can create a public chat where they can sperg and it sort of could be like live posting?
That way the thread doesn't clog and anons can discuss things they want. Perhaps patreon anons and ex greg fans can feel more free to spill milk there since they won't get banned. Then a summary of anything relevant can just be posted here.

it's simply because what was posted was a link to a very recent video and all I have is a photo no one has really seen before

The current infighting over sam is getting out of hand and is annoying. Don't agree that all the newfags stem from tempcow, it seems that the /pt/ thread is right now infiltrated by 1 or more onion stans, this is definitely new. More likely some people come over from onion's discord or youtube. So I agree that sam discussion should be transfered over to /snow/ unless milk happens just to stop the same infighting over and over again.

No. 5600

I'm the one that you're replying to and I agree, even that would be a better solution than the current. All of the infighting going on and accusing people of being stans is utterly annoying.

I was apparently banned for posting the second edit of some bald girl in the kota thread, I guess it was assumed I posted all of the before and ones after? This happened before too and I've been really patient and enjoyed this site but I see the same thing happening to other people and it's so fucking retarded. The boards either run wild or they're laughably strict. I was hoping it wouldn't continue to decline and was hoping that a farmhand could set up ads on the site or a donate button but turns out the mechanics of the site aren't what needs the fixing. It's so disheartening and stupid to see an image board become this toxic and nonsensical tbh, I won't be coming back but I hope it improves for others or something

"Hi cow" is against the rules. I accepted your ban appeal thinking you would improve your behavior and stop derailing and infighting but you have clearly not learned your lesson. As admin put it best
>You were temporarily banned for repeatedly trying to push users to harass an Onision fan into committing suicide. Basic Lolcow rules still apply to Tempcow and what other Farmers do is not for you to decide.
You are now going to be banned for ban evading, infighting, derailing, and samefagging. I'll include a vendetta in there as well too.

I was banned once on temp for making a joke that fatbecca should kill herself rather than do something in relation to Greg. I can't remember the exact detail because it was minor and lost in shit posting. Any other anons that I've saw alogging were not me so kthx sort out your mod system.

I am really sick of the man hate threads. They're gross echochambers that incite fear mongering. I know they're supposed to be a kind of contamination thread, but they are just vile. There's no room for discussion if you're not a gross misandrist either. They are just as hateful and toxic as /r9k/, but everyone just argues any points away about how they're 'getting back at men' or whatever and since men have those sites they deserve it too. But they don't men nor women deserve to be gross echochambers. I'd be fine if the threads pointed out specific people, but they are just garbage.

Just hide the thread and go on with your life, arguing the semantics of a rule (really more a guideline intended for newfags) towards the person who created said rule is just pants on head retarded. You've already pleaded your case and stated your logic, now it's time to get over yourself and move on.

not to be a pain, but can we do something about the constant anons in the moo thread bitching about anons 'giving her tips'? it's getting pretty annoying, honestly. it seems like any time any anon tries to discuss missteps in her lying, people come in and try to shit people up and complain about how we're helping her since she lurks the thread. i feel like policing the thread like that is just stupid.

No. 5756

Can all of the munchie threads be locked? They keep getting necroed by newfags.

And the newfags need to learn to use the spoiler. It's been an assault of bad blowjobs, bad tit jobs, and bad butt plugs this week.

No. 5757

Serious question: When derailing happens, why are only ever a few posts notably banned and not all who were participating in the derailing?
Especially the posts that are all "STOP DERAILING REEEE" which invariably just kicks a hornets nest and causes more arguing.

What gives with that? Too many clicks to execute? Because that's frankly crap.
If there's a reason for it, I'm curious.

No. 5758

Why are you guys so lazy? Are there only, like, 3 mods/farmhands collectively?

No. 5759

>>5757
supposedly their excuse is that not all bans/warnings are public and if multiple posts are made by a single offender only one of the posts will be marked

but it really gives the wrong impression to literally everyone else. I was really hoping that when this admin took over there would be more transparency/something could be done about that and things could be labeled better, but it's been nothing but the opposite

feels like it's only a matter of time before this admin steps down and has been slowly pulling their feet out of the cow pool. which may not be true at all, current admin might be busting ass behind the scenes, but for some reason feels it's better to do so unseen, so there's no way for us to gauge the actual amount of work that is or isn't done/rules that are or are not enforced, etc.

it all seems counter productive to me, since it'll only add on to the amount of reports if something isn't marked as having been dealt with. also kills user morale/desire to report shit in the first place if it seems like nothing is being done. doesn't help that none of the shit here is ever addressed (beyond backhanded, half-answered questions that make it seem like the farmhands are sick of their job and have become resentful)

honestly can't fathom what the strategy here is beyond having more or less given up, since admin seemed very interactive/high spirited when they originally took over

That’s true, though. I was temp-banned for nitpicking in the Onision thread. I couldn’t post for a few hours. There wasn’t a sign on the post which got me temp banned to let people know action had been taken. I feel like if there was, over a small thing, it would get super distracting on slower threads.

No. 5770

Look, imagine someone gets banned for derailing or infighting, then if all their posts are marked with a ban message, everyone can immediately tie their posts together by checking which posts were not marked before. Anonymity would be gone as soon as any user makes a slight mistake. Do you really want that?

I'm neither for nor against it, but the whole 'make a video' (now call out video?) thing in the jillian vessey/pixielocks thread is starting to feel pretty cowtippy. comments like

>What we can do instead is make a video for Jillian to see only. We can use screenshots of things that she’s said and done and use video and ask her to change her ways nicely and to be truthful with her fanbase. Other than legal issues, if she hears that someone made a call out video she might not even bother to watch it and she might loose fans and views which she needs because youtube is her only job and I don’t want to ruin her livelihood. It we’ nice and logical and tell her that the video is for her only then say that we don’t mean for it to be drama then I would go along with that.


are borderline personal army, aren't they?

No, I'm on board with your guys' decided actions this go around. The only thing I would've asked is a farmhand explaining the reasoning for autosage within the thread instead of leaving it up in the air, but you did that so I've got nothing to add other than the hopes that it works.

Thank you.

at first I was a little upset she was getting lumped in there when she has so much history, but she really has been pretty slow-milk so I can understand (I assume 'camgirl' is just the most appropriate thread to lump her into, despite her long overdue 'retirement'…)

…that and I know she reads shit about her still, and I can just imagine part of petty, narcissistic charms getting upset about not having her own thread anymore. which in a sadistic way, makes me a little happy, so I'm kind of for it when I think of it that way.

No. 5810

>>5808
I was wondering the same thing, especially because she is retiring. I understand she was once known as a cam girl but with that logic she could be lumped into Dakota’s thread because they were once similar.

the soundclout thread has a ridiculous amount of either newfags or self posters. I mean, it always has but it seems especially bad lately.

Yeah, I've also seen anons who state things like "asians have horse hair and flat faces" or "black women look manly" and not be (visible) banned, while others who are just defending their race in the same thread gets slapped with a big red text. It just feels biased.

If race-baiting really is against the rules, why isn't the thread that straight up shits on asian women banned? Not to mention the the anti k-pop thread isn't even anti k-pop half the time, just circle jerking about how ugly asians look.

Farmhands, I've dug through semi-old Onision threads from 1-2 years ago recently and I noticed some people using emojis like ^^ and :). No red brackets for bans or tempbans for that at the time.

Now I see people getting tempbans for using :D and the likes. I'd like to ask out of interest why you started being harsher on that. I know it's in /info to not type obnoxiously, but it seems there's been a shift towards a harsher stance.

It has always been against the rules to use emoticons. Those people were likely banned just as quick as they are now.

A lot more bans happen then you guys see, we do not redtext them all because they aren't serious enough. Some mods use it a bit more frequently then others though.

Can I ask why was this person banned? This is not white-knighting, it was literally stating an opinion. Disagreeing with another anon about a cow's looks. Why exactly are you not allowed to have an opinion that is unpopular in a thread?

It's not like saying something positive about a snowflake's appearance is not allowed, because it happens occasionally and people don't get banned for it. I'm just saying.. cases like this one looks like abuse of power by a mod who banned because they felt like it, not because any rules were broken.

Why does every ban need to be outted or explained to people uninvolved? They receive a message from a mod saying what they did.
This will not be changed. Before maybe 1 year ago seeing a red text post was extremely rare.

We have a rule page and an info page, it's quite simple to go read and learn how the site works.
They can also lurk more.

Don't be too scared to be banned, most of the time it is a short warning and it won't pass 3 hours too often, a lot are even only 1 second long. Of course, unless you repeat the same offense despite warning.

All I can really say is I can talk with staff about it. Thanks for the patience.

Yeah I mean people might bitch at first about unfair bans or too many bans or whatever, but as long as there was a reason given then even regular anons would back the farmhands up and give you less to worry about - like what just happened up thread.

I do think in the end admin is admin and it's up to you what gets done with the site - you obviously see and know more about what works from the backend than we do. But other than the possibility of extra work and some initial poopy pants'd rulebreakers, I can only see benefits in increased red text.

Even though people should lurk, learn board culture and read the rules, we're seeing time and time again that they don't. For some that may mean they won't listen to bans or red text, period. But I really agree with others that it'd help assimilate newfags and help reign in others. If a time comes where there's enough available man power to at least try an increase in explained red text bans, I can't see why not to test it…?

No. 5878

>>5874
agree. more red text is really useful, and as someone who did janny for 4chan, i know it's not much extra work at all. it's a super important part of banning and will help a lot of stuff. as it is now, mods have to go in and reply when people posting about seeing one comment banned but not others.

No. 5880

If people don’t know why/that others are getting banned, or that certain rules are being enforced more heavily, they’re going to continue to do banworty shit. I’ve been here since shortly after the SR migration, and can definitely say that from the user perspective, the major force behind the changes that happen in rules, etc. come more from shifts in moderation than town halls, etc. I’ve noticed a lot of bans recently for things that seem…not that big of a deal? Or for rules that haven’t historically been very strictly enforced with anything other than the scorn of other anons. Idk, it just seems that whatever is being done to improve the quality of posting, is sort of working, but it’s also killing threads in other circumstances? I guess I don’t understand why you wouldn’t do a hellweek or something before you start swinging the ban hammer harder than usual. Just my opinions.

I don't understand why this is so hard for you. the venus wk in the margo thread keep writing "venus bash in her thread" but they are posting tons of venus wk. its still derailing the thread. just because its not venus thread doesn't mean you can wk. state the facts not a ton of feelings. if the janitors took away all the venus wk post the margo thread would be 1 page. that's the point. we cant even following up on margo scamming because venus wk keeps derailing the thread.

nayrt but you aren't suppose to wk anyone. in venus case she is a cow also. by wk her to spite margo you are contributing to a cow. I read the margo thread. inorder to wk venus you are indeed lying about venus being a cow. lolcow is for documentation. cant keep track if the cows and anons are lying. first time saying this but you need to go back(reddit). same thing happen with social repose and Jacklyn glen. Jacklyn glen is a cow but she was wk by anons to the point where her milk is 5 pages back. just stop lying to wk. state the facts and label opinions as such. I'm taking a break. my favorite threads onion and emos have been raided by wk and self-inserts.

I've got it, gals. How to fix the shitty newfags influx:

Before posting you have to fill out a captcha in the form of a question/accompanying image. Each question will be things like
"Does this girl look fat?"
"Do you have rich parents?"
"What do you think of BPD?"
Etc.

The spergy blog posters will be unable to answer with anything short of a multi paragraph long blog entry about themselves, preventing them from completing captcha! Wala!

(Really, though, I get what above anon is saying. There's a retarded amount of oversensitive posters who project their lives into the cows and derail threads with their shitty journals. Pls squash this shit before the infestation grows further - it's almost as bad as when there was rampant spoony postings)

No. 5890

people like you who bitch about "helping her" are fucking annoying. stop trying to tone police the thread just incase. the thread is for posting about moo and laughing about her, there's no reason to bitch and moan about things that may help her. you sound like those "reeee we gotta destroy moo!" idiots.

The people screeching about anons "helping her" are autistic as fuck, especially when they're policing others not to give her "advice". I don't really give a shit if she steals advice from lolcow, she's dumb enough to screw her own shit up by herself no matter how much "help" we give to her. And if she doesn't, who cares? Just let people point out her stupidity and laugh at her, it's not that fucking serious, jesus christ.

that's not in the rules technically. there's no issue with saying something like that, and people are getting bans for asking if something is reportable, without any intent to report. it's not my fault if you are too autistic to realize that joking isn't a threat.

>5c Do not alert a subject to their thread or take any other action to lead them to lolcow.farm (cowtipping).


>Do not contact a subject's family.

>Do not use lolcow.farm to crusade against a cow (not your personal army).
>Do not organize raids on twitter, twitch or other social media.
>Do not brag or announce having personal contact or interactions with a cow.

joking doesn't violate the rules at all. also, nice ESL, you'd think a mod would know how to speak properly since it's their job to know how english works so they can interpret rules.

No. 5899

Appealing a ban can help, if you have no offenses or even minor ones, a shortened ban can and will likely happen.

I got banned for reporting a post with red text I guess. I leave the tab open, and with the auto refresh or whatever, it won't display the red text. I just wanted to let you know that's a thing, and I try not to report older posts to negate it.
Yeah, I could just refresh the page.

Not to scare people, it was just like a letting me know ban, not a real one (I think, I dunno how long it was, I could continue using the site right away after seeing it). I think most people are mobile users, so I figured I may as well mention it.

Harassing may have been the wrong word, but we can't have people encouraging doing these type of things on here. It causes problems.

that's totally understandable, but i guess it seems a bit like white knighting. i definitely understand it, it just feels like the moo thread is constantly being singled out, but then it's obvious to me there's a reason, hell, it's obvious that was why it got moved to /snow/. i guess i'm just salty that anons are triggering mods to be more ban happy over shit that wouldn't get banned in other threads.

No. 5908

>>5903
>>5906
Meh, I think it can technically fall under harassment as it would be bothering her out of personal malice. And for Moo irl, any outside interference would certainly be viewed as harassment.

You could also call it encouraging cowtipping, mostly in relation to 5c (crusading against).

Asking "can we do x?" makes it seem like the poster is going to do x. They could have worded it better.

I don't care, just abuse or harassment is generally used as a blanket term in modding (in my experience). Sorry for putting in my two cents.

Technically 3.1c, this site origins are from 4chan.

it says to avoid the use of emoji, nowhere is stated it will result in a ban.

4chan doesn't autoban on use of emoji, people use it for trolling there and some character combinations can result in an emoji

No. 5914

>>5913
sorry you're too autistic to realize that "avoid using emojis" under a section about rules implies you'll get banned.

also, all the bans are done manually, so of course mods aren't going to ban you for accidentally making an emoji. i swear.

No. 5915

>>5913
are you unironically this stupid?

lolcow might have roots in 4chan culture but that doesn't mean we have to do everything 4chan does. emoji use is a big indicator of newfags who didn't lurk, and if you couldn't even believe that from seeing it listed in the fucking rules/rules and info, then there's nothing to be said but for your ass to lurk moar. Getting red text for emoji use is probably the most COMMON ban I've seen on lolcow, so how you didn't catch on is beyond me

No. 5916

fuck. i know that this already was mentioned but can we please ban people who try to police discussion because the cow could use it to her advantage? it happens in the moo thread a lot, but is spilling into others too. her lurking here and posting stuff that she sees in the thread is part of the milk and it really seems like tons of anons are trying to crusade against certain cows, rather than watch them and point and laugh.

Moo's thread is not the only one where this comes up. For example, in the Taylor threads, people muse about complaining to her apartment manager about her pets. I imagine farmhands see a great deal of it. I feel like in the Moo thread culture, anons are particularly sensitive about being corrected and see it as victimisation. Suggesting to call the hotel and report illegal drugs is a dumb post, #1. The anon wouldn't even know what drugs to report anyway, #2 and should make an ass of themselves on their own time without suggesting it on here, #3.

No. 5922

>>5921
you totally missed my point, banning some things like that is fair, but mods need to actually be explaining bans rather than calling people autists. you also sound like you don't really get the over all feel in the moo threads. it's not about anons being salty they're being corrected, it's that those anons actually hate moo and don't want her milk.

me getting banned for 635847 for """blogposting" or whatever when i was replying to 634214 seems ridiculous. the difference between calling someone out for reaching, and blogposting should not be 1st person pronouns, if i would have said you, or "people" i don't feel i'd have gotten gotten banned. it's not infighting to point out someone's reasoning is fucking stupid. also, if anyone else was banned they should have been redtexted as well, and redtexting my post in general shows bad modding.

what you did is blogposting

no one gives a shit that you have one set of sheets and how frequently you clean them

so looking at that SS I can imagine literally 3 reasons you should have been banned, seems pretty justified

No. 5940

>>5935

i think the biggest issue was the fact that you didn't sage. bumping the thread just to talk about washing your sheets seems unnecessary. it also seemed like you were picking a fight with anon over something super petty and personal, so again sage was needed. the post had nothing to do with the thread, altough you were right lbr. it seems fair that you got a short ban and now can post again. your post wasn't terribly spergy or blogposty, just unnecessary.

the (no one cares) redtext was right.

Ok so I’m an old ass farmer but I spent some time away, and since I’ve been back I haven’t paid a lot of attention to admin and rule changes. I’ve noticed that bannable offenses have changed a lot, and I’m curious when & why some of the old chan-culture stuff went by the wayside, here. I noticed that the rules no longer expressly admit doxxing, trolling, shitposting, etc.

Tbh I think a lot of it’s an improvement so please don’t take this as bitching! Just curious - thanks admin and farmhands for keeping this place alive and as cancer-free as possible!

No. 5942

>>5941
I'm feeling rambly so this is going to be one hell of a tl;dr timeline.

I'd say the rule changes were a more gradual coming about, each new rule sort of in accordance with different happenings or newfag floods (btw, if you missed it, I personally find the 'spergchan' drama involving kiki kannibal to be the most juicy happening over the years and recommend looking into it). Some claims of legal action against lolcows/admins seemed to have swayed hands a few times, I believe especially when it came to doxxing family members/children.

The biggest changes definitely came to the end of original admins stay (you could tell he was getting tired of his position/lolcow in general). 2nd admin ended up doing some doxxing herself via discord and being petty or something (I didn't really pay attention to that fiasco) and I think consequently stepped down (someone can correct me here), leading to current admin.

each overhaul meant a new batch of mods, as far as I know, which also lead to rule implementation-changes. I think current admin ended up making their own team entirely, but again, hazy on the accuracy there.

Anyway, by the time current admin came on board, lolcow was in pretty big disarray. raids and cowtips and other junk had caused hordes of newfags and tons of attention hungry self-posting, and so new admin began their reign with heavy hellweeks (which had been implemented previously with mostly success, but basically - weeks at a time where farmhands ban extra heavy to wipe out the piles of trash that've failed to integrate). A lot of rules came from problems shitposters consistently brought about that non-stop derailed threads. Public "Townhalls" were very common with og and 2nd admin (where everyone would discuss current issues and solutions – err, sort of - via chatroom). So lots of things were put to vote and turned into rules from that.

With new (current) admin's hellweeks beginning to get things back in order rule-wise, the site's host increasingly shit up all over the place. So admin came up with an alternative lolcow meant to be used to post milk when the main site was down. this alternative lolcow, unfortunately, ended up becoming a spammy-retard haven for people who did not enjoy the new ban-heavy moderation of regular lolcow. these 'refugees' would 'hide milk' from normal lolcow, talk shit about lolcow, and talk shit about the staff/rule enforcement. eventually their spewage leaked into the main site and caused more problems, leading to admin having to take down alternative-lolcow and then create more rules to get rid of their shitposting all over the main site once they were forced to crawl back here and lash out.

more shit happened at some point before all this where spoony (as always) got out of hand and sent a bunch of fucking robots over here because original admin banned her from shit posting and humble bragging all over the site (she had apparently amassed more posts than any single user of lolcow). more rules were implemented to deal with that shit storm. munchie and ana threads became popular after some time, and brought in a whole bunch of retards from myproana and instagram along those lines, who endlessly blogposted and shit all over, and that brought along even /more/ rules. As always, fags from PULL and tumblr and other such havens would come in droves when cowtipping or crosslinking came about, leading to even more rules. Eventually, this also lead to an increase of regular users that were not originally from 4chan – meaning the overall userbase began to have different opinions on 4chan culture (granted, too, most of those around for old 4chan have probably grown up and had moral shifts). Hence you get a lot of WKy shit and freak outs about 'sexual harrassment someone looked at someone's butt triggered where's my hugbox' etc.

recently there has also been a summer influx and a dip in posting quality, hence everyone here screaming for 'hellweek' the past however many posts.

anyway, I hope someone else comes along and sums this shit up for you better so you don't have to struggle reading this… but, maybe it still gives a little insight. if you want more highlights/a general idea of things, skimming through /meta/ probably summarizes/clarifies the basic happenings between each admin reign better than I just did

Just curious if any town halls are planned for the near future. Maybe it would be useful to have users weigh in collectively regarding the direction they’d like to see the site take before implementing hellweek? I think it’s great that y’all are doing the hellweek thing, and it could be a great opportunity to take the site more in a direction that the established user base prefers - I see a lot of older farmers in this thread with some good ideas, and I don’t recall newfag influxes in town halls being a problem in the past.

Those rules exist because the vast majority of long term, consistent farmers didn't want to deal with your newfag sperg posts. If you spent any actual time on lolcow you'd realize how annoying those things have become.

Personally, I think even if we were to remove red text entirely there'd still be hugbox retards like the one that was getting mad about emojis, armchairing, etc. To me, even for minor offenses, these bans are justified because – whether you're normally a nonshitposter or not - you're doing something that regularly offsets the thread content. I've been reasonably banned for things like infighting before and not only was the duration of the ban short, but I could still read lolcow (just not post). Mods have said before ban severity will also depend on your past transgressions. If 'quality posters' are getting their jimmies rustled that they can only read lolcow for a few hours or a day, then I don't even know what the fuck to say to them. Stiff upper lip, I guess?

That all said, I do still agree it'd be good for another survey or town hall so everyone has a chance to voice their opinions.

I think mods should have to redtext, and not be allowed to change the text. It's clearly too much for some of them to have that kind of power.

No. 5982

Also I forgot the original reason I came here. The man-hate shit is getting way out of hand. The posters are a problem, and they're super cancerous. They start petty fights in all the threads and accuse everyone who doesn't agree with them of being handmaidens or trannies. Then they whine and say it's cause their thread is autosaged, but turn around and bitch when it's not and it gets raided. I honestly don't even want them to have their own threads anymore because it clearly doesn't help, and it's just making it seem like we want them here. They have to voice their shitty opinion in every thread that someone mentions a dude, or they have to freak out when you don't agree with their opinion.

There's some stupid thread about men being more racist than women, which seems like total racebaiting. And they remade the man-hate thread so the other one wouldn't be on autosage, which isn't how you get something off autosage.

I usually don't get pissed off by these kind of things, but the posters have showm themselves to be toxic and whiny. The way the threads are mirrors shit you see on /r9k/ but under the guise of "we've been oppressed by them so we deserve this!" which is cringy. I do feel similarly about all the trans hate but it seems mostly contained.

I just really hope that admins and the mods come to some kind of conclusion about this whole thing.

I also agree about the man-hate shit.

They just aren't satisfied about anything, they constantly go into threads to shit on anons positive discussions about men and then talk down on people telling them to stop.

No. 5998

Wow what the hell happened here.
Anyways, I wanted to come explain something that changed quite a while ago now that may explain why you guys thing "Mods are so ban happy now".

The old banning system was god awful, we would have to give one full day bans minimum just so people could even SEE they have been banned. Maybe about a 6 months ago or a bit more now, we changed that system so that you guys can see any bans that you have received, even if it had expired already.
Banning is just the same amount as it was for a long time. 90% of those bans before were never seen. (and yes we can see when someone has seen their ban)

I hope this clears up why it may seem a lot crazier now with bans.
Also if your ban is under like 1 hour it is just a warning, not a ban.

Remember to use the appeal system, if we see here was a mistake we will unban you. We sort through a shit ton of reports daily.
I'll try read through all the complaints made. May take me a while though.

You guys act like such whiny babies too and fight with anyone who doesn't want to see you point out that men rape and kill whenever a man is mentioned. And you shoehorn in the fact that men have negative opinions about any subject. It spreads all around the site. No one cares if "men think shoop is real" or "men think fat girls are a fetish" or whatever.

First of all, I haven't posted in those threads in months, I only lurk. Auto-sage kills threads, so when it dies again it will infest the other threads. Sounds like you want to have your cake and eat it too by having the man hate "problem" fixed by banning it from /ot/, which is pretty much the same thing.

And again, chill out. Why are you so pressed? This is not that big of a deal, crybaby.

>>6030
I don't care, I didn't ask in either of my posts.

No. 6033

If the man hate posters can't keep it to their thread then I agree those specific individuals should be banned from the site. The problem is that we can't see how many unique posters are actually leaving their containment thread and we can't stop them from ban evading.

The only reason I'd agree with banning it entirely is because I was on 4chan from the get go and I highly believe moot bringing back and allowing R9K instead of keeping it deleted and mass banning all the refugees leaking into other boards was the final straw that broke the camel's back and 100% when 4chan went to complete and utter shit opposed to just parshal shit. If the Man hate posters became too numerous, too ban evading and continued to leave their containment area, then I fully support banning them and the topic from lolcow.

But again, can't really make an informed opinion since we don't know unique poster statistics. I assume the farmhands have a better grasp on this.

No. 6034

>>6017
Maybe changing the name to the "misogyny thread" or "sexism experience thread"? So that the thread doesn't stand out as much as "MALE HATE THREAD". Its not that man hate-y either, most of it is frustration with sexism and the treatment women get in society.

No. 6036

>>6033
I agree with this, and honestly I don't see them keeping it to one thread. They already brought it to other threads, claiming it was because their thread was on autosage, but they haven't kept it to that thread even then. Shortly after they made the new thread, someone made that shitty "men are more racist" thread that had to be locked, and they were having conversations in the unpopular opinions thread.

If it's only a few posters and they can keep it together, sure give them their own thread, but they haven't proven that yet. I agree with the anon saying that men are mentioned anytime they can be mentioned, which is really bizarre.

No. 6037

It's shitty, manipulative behavior to accuse other farmers of being "handmaidens" just because we have some criticisms about male-hate posters and their conduct.
Nobody has to shut up and go away (ironically, this is how men treat us on 4chan).
So don't say "You shouldn't browse lolcow and you should go to crystal.cafe," as if our opinions aren't as valid for being posters here.

It's not unreasonable for other posters to voice frustration and concern when man-hate tirades have bled into other threads. Personally, I've hidden the /ot/ thread but have seen the topic leak into others myself. Some posters have demonstrated that they can't control their sperging and a containment thread isn't cutting it. It attracts baiting, infighting, sperging.

I'm sure I'm not the only anon who's tired of male fixation on this website.

No. 6038

>>6017
Just ban the anons replying to bait to set an example. Also perhaps remove the bait posts? "men r gud" and "ur just as bad" or "why haet men doesn't bother to read previous 200 posts to find out why" do not fit the theme "MAN HATE", I don't see why they should not be taken as off topic derailing and removed on sight.

No. 6039

>>6023
So what do you suggest then? If removing or autosaging the thread makes the users shit up other threads (this is why the new one was made), but not removing it bothers your innocent virgin eyes, and apparently doesn't even contain the man hate, what do you want?

I think it's clear that what anon is getting at is that we should just ban whoever has any slight complaint about 50% of the population.

No. 6040

>>6037
Agreed. I really agree with the last point, the focus on men is a bit out of hand, especially in the way it's done here. They always just post random shit they've seen online and then act like it's some kind of deep commentary. Like, what's the point then? It's just a bunch of cherry picked comments and anons going "see this is what men are really like" then trying to shit on people who disagree calling them "handmaidens" or accusing them of being men. Hell, even now the thread isn't full of "totally constructive criticism", it's annoying circlejerking about how all the people who bitch about it are clearly males posters. And when you point out that they are acting the same as groups they bitch about, they make poor excuses, and claim that "men always do this on the rest of the internet and no one complains!" And they refuse to listen.

I always thought that not allowing men to post was fine, because the types of men who like chan sites are fucking annoying since they've had no experience with other humans, let alone women. But the women who are the exact same people as those men are just as fucking annoying.

No. 6041

>I don't see why they should not be taken as off topic derailing and removed on sight.

Because the mods actually don't care about your thread and are using it to contain you so the rest of the site doesn't get ruined. You guys don't seem to notice that you're being treated as a disease, like incels on 4chan, and for the exact same reasons even down to your justifications.

>many have said that you guys are still shitting up other threads, and after the new thread was made, not only were other similar threads made, but the derailing didn't stop

It has only been two days, give some time for the man-hate discussion outside of the thread to dry up (which it will, because there is containment now), and if it doesn't, and the users doing this refuse to take it to the man-hate thread, just ban them for derailing, if they are doing that.

No. 6043

>>6042
I'm one of the people who are leaning towards potentially getting rid of the man-hate posters all together, but I think this is a pretty reasonable middle ground - if farmhands are able/willing to do so.

Ban the bigger trouble-makers, and if the majority of users are still baiting, taking the bait, going outside their thread, derailing other topics, etc, then get rid of it all together and continue to ban the refugee-spillage til they accept the topic isn't welcome here because it couldn't be contained. Same with any other cow or snow related banned topic, where we were forced to ban it because it just couldn't be done without maximum spergy autism.

No. 6044

>>6043
I agree. I wouldn't care what they were doing, but they seep into any thread on /ot/ and /g/.

I'm not even saying they shouldn't be allowed their opinion, but they always clap back at people about it claiming everyone is a handmaiden/tranny/male if they disagree. They're just as bad as when male posters come on to the boards.

No. 6045

>le "just as bad as menXD" meme
Stating facts about male violence statistics and reciting how most women have to live in fear for all their lives is comparable to men reeing about not getting laid. Okay.

And yes, if you're getting your panties in such a bunch over one thread that leaks to maybe two or three /ot/ threads (just like k-pop, gendercrit, ana-chan, racebaiting, veganism and other topics) you sound very, very male or handmaiden-y.

No. 6046

>>6045
Not that anon but
>k-pop, gendercrit, ana-chan, racebaiting, veganism and other topics
Nobody appreciates these subjects leaking into other threads either. Just because they occasionally do doesn't mean it's okay for you to be doing it too, and out of those types of posters, many different anons here are saying that you guys are the most distracting of them all.

>women have to live in fear for all their lives is comparable to men reeing about not getting laid

This isn't what anon was saying.
Nobody is comparing what women have to deal with to men and saying you're "as bad as men" for addressing women's issues.
This guilt tripping attempt isn't going to endear us to your perspective btw.

Anon clearly meant you're "as bad as men" in how you're treating other farmers who criticize your conduct or interact in a way that isn't 100% agreeing with you.
You accuse anons of being males/trannies/handmaidens and acting like the entire website is your personal circlejerk.

Men treat us in the same minimizing, derogatory ways on other chans and we don't need that behavior from you or anyone else here.

No. 6047

>>6046
This is exactly what I meant, thank you.

I hate this idea that >>6045 has about other people getting away with doing it. Or how men all over the internet can be annoying spergs so it's fine for anons to do it too? No, it's just as annoying as when men do it. The only people who let shit men to air their dirty laundry about women or whatever are other shit men.

A lot of us want to go on /ot/ and /g/ to shoot the shit with other women about stuff we can't talk about with our SOs or irl friends, and many of us don't want to be constantly reminded about how shitty men are. Bitching in every thread about shitty incels or neckbeards or misogynists is annoying, same as when people bitch about trannies in threads. It has little to do with not wanting people to be mean to the poor little men, and more to do with the fact that the posters who bring it up have to shove their nose into everything and try to swing the conversation into misandry. And anyone who says anything gets accused of being a handmaiden or man or tranny.

Just like >>6045 has done most of those posters are the same

>post a comment that brings up an annoying subject (misandry in this case)

>bitch when anyone responds negatively, acting like you're entitled to your opinion but the other person isn't

Why is OT filled to the brim with anons coming in to shit up threads like mentally ill mini mods?
They won't stfu and keep harassing any thread they deem 'shitty' from the Man hate thread to Husbando thread then while they simultaneously bait post they come to Meta to cry to the real mods that the threads are spreading to others when its again just them being OT in the snow/pt threads pulling straw man comparison between posts there and on OT.
They seem June tier and won't let up even though we have 'hide thread' for a reason yet nobody wants to use it.

people found it entertaining. and that would suggest that lc is a legit hugbox. there's a hide thread feature for a reason and they refuse to simply use it. there was no tulpa talk outside of that thread and no need for them to whine the way they did.

if you can't handle sad anons harmlessly talking about their embarrassing innocent imaginary boyfriend fantasy without repeatedly barging in and endlessly sperging about how it makes them cows and complaining to mommy mods about how you can't just use the hide thread feature as it was intended and have to demand to have it locked and husbando talk off the site entirely all just because you think it's lame/losery, despite it not being exploitative or gross, that's pretty hugbox-y and spoiled, actually.

Ntayrt, but that's a false equivalence. There are good reasons to ban all those other things. They derail threads, cause fighting, and generally shit up the site.

Someone has a husbando that makes their lonely life a bit better and helps them cope, that's not really warranting a screeching fit over "cringy anons bringing in trash".

We can infight amongsts ourselves all we want about what does or doesn't belong on here, but more than anything I think we need a townhall or poll or something so users can express the direction of the site and mods/admin can reaffirm the direction of the site

we've been left in the dark with few and far inbetween replies to things on /meta/ way too long, vaguely promised things and teeter-totering on rules…

Farmhands/admin, can you please at least give us some kind of plan of action? Like, other than "we plan for a hellweek… sometime"? What is going on?

I personally really appreciated the upthread transparency on the change in the ban-system and the problems staff faced before it's rehaul. I understand there are reasons not everything can be so transparent, but I feel like staff-user communication has been really lacking and it makes me (and from what I've read I assume others) feel like there's nothing going on - when shit is assumedly still happening behind the scenes?

Well part of my reasoning for why it was the worst board is the constant insane infighting.

It’s been almost two weeks since any farmhand has responded here - are y’all just not giving a shit about user input or just not communicating what’s going on staff-side, or…? Lolcow has always been pretty great about being user-directed in terms of culture and guidelines, but since the beginning of the summer it almost seems like staff is either checked out or ready to jump ship.

I noticed farmhand said the site is short staffed - I also saw someone in the application thread asking for some kind of job description and nobody ever responded - maybe people would apply if they at least knew what the job entailed? Are you just accepting Patrons or something?

I feel like there's been a lot of inconsistency in the moderating lately, which definitely started before the summer. Since the last hellweek ended it feels like the modding in general has just been all over the place and it just makes me not want to post because I don't want to have to try and parse what farmhands in particular threads think is acceptable.

It might just feel that way (such as with bans being more visible now without actually increasing the number of bans) but it does lead one to question what's going on with recruitment of staff.

I agree as well. In one thread you can get banned for circle jerking how beautiful someone is for derailing, but in another it's perfectly fine and acceptable. Off-topic will get a thread sent to snow but another thread that constantly goes off-topic will not.

>What specifically about moderation feels inconsistent? Rules were recently updated for clarification and stickied threads were added to /pt/ and /snow/ for user friendliness.


Well, I got a redtext ban a couple of weeks ago for blogposting (I wasn't, I was responding to a comment another anon made about a cow filing a discrimination lawsuit and it had nothing to do with my personal experiences) and then when I attempted to post in a thread I received a message saying that I needed to "tone down the wall of text" and showing me the post which was redtexted for blogposting. So that's confusing and feels inconsistent.

I'm also not sure where in the rules it says that posts shouldn't exceed a certain length, (I could just be missing it) but that also seems very subject to the whims of a particular farmhand.

I've also seen other anons get redtext bans for "blogging" when their post has nothing to do with their personal experiences and is a response to something another anon said. Honestly, from what I'm seeing, redtext bans for blogging just seem to be a covert way of farmhands saying "fuck your opinion."

>When the moo thread was sent to snow it was due to anons cowtipping and crusading on twitter.


That was never clearly communicated to users posting in that thread.

From what I recall at the time, a farhmand stated that the Moo thread had devolved into nitpicking and OT posts, had no real milk, and that people were tired of seeing it clogging up PT. And yet, the Vicky Shingles and Dasha threads are just as nitpicky, OT, and lacking milk at times, but apparently their spot on PT is secure. So that's another example where moderation has felt inconsistent and based more on farmhand's personal biases than the rules.

I'm not saying the staff should have to justify every ban or use of redtext, but >>6129 made a good point
>It's hard to trust the staff when they don't even seem to be on the same page with rules.

the whole point of redtext is to point out who is banned. allowing mods to pick and choose randomly is inconsistent and pointless since it's super obvious that it's based on preference rather than relevancy. if you can't seriously make some kind of guidelines either always redtext or never do it.

a huge failure of the site right now is that it's not being run tightly enough. mods need to be regulated just as much as us.

General Complaint: People aren't getting punished for contracting people involved in milk with the cow, but if you mention that the person should be contacted to verify - you will be punished.

Obviously, I understand the punishment but it seems very inconsistent in the fact that you seemingly are encouraged to contact people in direct contact with the cow rather than asking people who have previously been in contact to follow up.

Also, I think appealing a punishment and being denied should at least have the mods give a reason as to why it was declined. I personally think there's some attitude issues going on, but it seriously cannot be hard to simply say 'we don't agree with appeal for this or that' reason is better than no answer.

Farmhand didn’t address many anons requests for a new poll or townhall - are you guys even considering that?

Also, could someone please answer the question about farmhand applications? If you guys are delaying hellweek due to staffing shortages and availability, as you said, then let people know what the job is about?

uh, the radfem stuff has been here for a really long time now and misandry threads have been a thing on here for literal years. pretty much the only time it wasn't like this was is when we had a surge of pull users. were you only lurking /pt/ until like a month ago or something?

I got here shortly after the staminarose migration and a bit before the tumblr/anachan influx when the first admin was around, actually? The culture has definitely shifted under the new admin in a specifically terfy/radfem way, and it’s causing a lot of infighting, and the quality of the site is tanking. You can’t “hide those threads” because in every other thread now you have four unmoderated derailing idiots shouting about it every time someone even accidentally refers to a troon or fakeboi by their chosen pronouns.

I literally don’t give a shit about terfs one way or another except for the fact that they used to just be one part of the user base, and now they sperg up every thread, and it’s been practically codified under recent admin. Please for the love of god do not start back with the bickering that just died down - I had nothing to do with that and that shit is literally exactly why I’m saying “wtf, did radfems literally take over the site and then abandon it when the whole site became radfem infighting?”

I don’t care about the rhetoric, I’m just really suspicious of staff’s level of involvement with lolcow politics, especially in moderation - subjects that caused this much derailing used to catch bans, but terf shit causes an uproar every single time yet somehow that’s still a part of the user base we need to mollify? Fuck that.

At the very least, it just seems like admin is either disinterested or prefers to run things as a cabal. Even scanning through /meta/ it’s pretty striking how much admin’s involvement in the site has dropped.

Literally where? I haven't seen any of that in the past month at least (on /snow/ anyways, idk about /pt/). When that did happen, it wasn't directed at people who "accidentally" did it and it was usually in threads about agp creeps or fakeboi trenders. Most of the anons in the Soren thread call her a he, yet no one has fought about it. There are some terfy undertones in threads about handmaidens like shoe or actual troons, but other than that, it really has died down outside of the containment threads.

Posts with an excessive length don't fit imageboard culture and are usually associated with blogging or some sort of derailing. The ban may have been related to that. You can read more about it under the /snow/ and /pt rules, it's number 1.

Right now finding more staff is more of a priority than a townhall or poll, meaning hellweek is the main priority after that. Suggestions and complaints here are always noted though, even if it doesn't always seem that way.
For hellweek to work, we need to make sure that we are not understaffed. Applying for positions is encouraged now more than ever, but if you have already applied you may be getting emailed soon.
Another thing we'll work on is making moderation much more consistent for everybody. Hopefully the upcoming changes are noticable enough for positive feedback.

I see that you guys have repeatedly been petitioned to offer up some sort of job description for farmhands. I imagine that’s pretty accurate as to why you’re having a hard time finding staff. You guys seem to redtext a lot of the posts I report and you’ve taken suggestions I’ve made here in meta before so I have considered applying myself, but I always get halfway through the application and quit because I can’t tell what I’m getting myself into and don’t want to waste your time or mine. I’m sure I can’t be alone in that.

Also, why is Aly’s thread autosaged again? Anons were really happy to have it back and some fantastic art is getting made. It’s a much better thread than half the ones that get bumped all day long on snow, and it makes no sense. People were saging and no major cowtipping was happening - i am pretty sure a lot of the “myproana” type forums discuss her as wel so you can’t just assume the nasty comments she gets are from farmers (if that’s what it is.) I didn’t even see any bans or red text go up so what gives?

I've been under the impression lately farmhands don't actually read the context of a thread/surrounding posts when a post is reported, and instead just read the report and go with that as of late. Hence a lot of the "biased" looking bans now

these replies from both farmhand and admin feel mildly similar to that, not enough time or focus – maybe because they're stretched thin

I've been kind of curious as to how current admin got the position. were they friends with previous admin? were they a prior farmhand? were they from a different chan/gossip board? do they have any roots in lolcow/staminarose/4chan? did they have any experience being an administrator prior to this?

I mean it doesn't make a difference either way in the grand scheme of things, but I've always got the impression they don't and didn't. It makes it seem even queerer thought-out posts with the site's well-being in mind are being mostly glossed over/ignored.

I don't mean for this post to sound petty or dickish towards farmhands/admin, either, more like speculation as to what has lead to the site becoming this way since everything still feels pretty shrouded in mystery and favor towards the part of the userbase that has always seemed like a minority in the past.

use it or don't, and stop letting the clearly autistic admins write in their ban reasons. it's super embarrassing because some of them point out their obvious salt. we also need to implement some kind of guide for redtexting. i've seen on other chans that generally the first post by the offending retard is redtexted.

I think it’s probably obvious to most people that farmhands and janitors handle bans. That doesn’t explain what kind of communication is expected or how it’s done, what kind of qualifications you want for farmhands or what experience is helpful, how much time people are expected to have available, what areas of lolcow specifically need more attention…you know, a job description. A description…of…the job…

I hate to get salty but at this point it’s obvious there is interest and it’s like you’re trying not to get help running this place.

Regarding upcoming hellweek without a townhall or poll or anything:

Summer is almost over. Half of the cancer is going back to school before it’s likely to get organized. A major portion of the main user base has been complaining for months about inconsistent modding, and feeling that staff is becoming a bit of a cabal (which makes sense even if inaccurate, given how few of you there are and how limited communication has been). There are major disagreements among the user base itself re: what direction the site should take and what should and shouldn’t be bannable offenses. If you do a hellweek with the staff/user relationship as-is, after all the cancer leaves, do you really think it’s going to go well? Because it seems like a lot of really solid posters are ready to throw their hands up and abandon the site, already.

If y’all don’t try to communicate with your users better and do a lot to restore confidence in moderation before you start cracking down on people, it’s going to cause an uproar I guarantee it.

The whole thing about “minimodding” is weird to be so heavily enforced in a forum that is so heavily understaffed, when the “mini mods” are usually oldfags who are right. I’ve specifically gotten a sense from recent months that this particular group of staff has a weird pride about being the only ones allowed to enforce rules or culture. Which is fucking odd because lolcow used to by nature be a self-enforcing culture. Weird shit gets ignored or silent bans but god forbid anyone but one of six moderators tries to tell anyone else here to shut the fuck up when they’re being autistic. It’s really Facebook-y.

I agree with what you say but as said before blog posting is usually associated with long posts unrelated to the topic at hand. That's why transcript anons are appreciated and blog posters in the animal youtubers threads aren't.
>>6289
There's no way for you to know if they were banned or not but if they were banned it was obviously not a red texted ban. This may or may not be based on post history or who was starting the majority of the fighting in the thread.
>>6290
If you want to be more specific, leadership roles and online forum experience is preferred with a reasonable degree of technical experience. Time depends on the person and their real life obligations but the team is more oriented on getting through reports and the time that takes really does depend on the person and the kind of week it is. /ot/ /g/ need the most help but certain threads on /snow/ need more moderation as well.
At this point it seems it may be better not to do a hellweek after summer. If we could, hellweek would have been done ages ago but there is not enough people to effectively do that and finding trustworthy people to help moderate is another issue.
>>6291
Post history is usually accounted for during the reporting process. Personally, I don't penalize any user who enforces the rules reasonably. Especially if it's an oldfag. Now someone who constantly derails and infights over sage may be banned for a short period as a warning.

Crystal Cafe has different staff and admin. If you do disagree with the way infighting is treated then please go in depth about it to help us correct the issue. Of course not everything is meant to be labeled as infighting.

Mods can you explain the rule about not informing abput personal experiences with the cow? I feel that it's contradictory as people in the onion thread where celebrated for bringing fresh milk (Maya and the other girl).

Yeah that answer pretty much confirmed what I already said, which is that the blogposting bans are just a a fuck you from the staff.

>>6295

I don't understand the staff's insistence that "long posts usually equal blogposting so we ban users for long posts because it breaks the rules about blogposting." The current rules don't ban long posts. Nor does the info about board culture mention anything about avoiding posts of excessive length. With the rules written as they are at present, a long post should be fine if it's relevant and on topic.

If staff don't want long posts in threads, why not just put in the rules that long posts = a ban?

Long posts aren't bans though

No. 6299

>>6297
The post was long but it was also a blogpost.

Per the recent conversation here, I personally would like to see the mini-modding ban relaxed somewhat. It takes time for farmhands to arrive in threads and give out bans. And sometimes there's no edtext so only one person knows about the ban. We can quickly squash cowtipping and derailing if you let us. As it stands, that behaviour gets out of hand and personally I think it's lead to a proliferation to cowtipping, a kind of new normal here where anons constantly interfere with the cows. Look at Moo's cam chat, anons were in there shitting it up from the start. Also, there's been a huge increase in people posting screencaps of comments by "someone tearing x cow a new one" when it's almost always a self post. Other anons see that and they copy it - they have no idea if a ban was issued or not. Random comments about/to a cow are not milk but there's so many of them now. We as users used to police this and try to stop it in the Margo threads. Now it's become the new normal and it's really ruining things.

my personal issue with the minimodding bans is that some bans seem to happen before anything starts, which doesn't really make sense. if infighting starts after, by all means ban the posters, but the beauty of a site like this is that you can treat things on a case to case basis. i guess the real issue is that the mods and admin all have to be in agreement with each other on what that means.

Admin did not really say that, anon. It was a mistake for its length to be singled out in the first place because it has lead to these buttblasted discussions. Not all long posts are blog posts. Blog posts can often be long.

The discussion is about the use of bans and the lack of consistent moderation. Long posts vs. blogposts is a symptom of that, which is why it's being discussed.

The discussion started because anon said that moderation feels inconsistent and in >>6132 Farmhand wrote >What specifically about moderation feels inconsistent? Rules were recently updated for clarification and stickied threads were added to /pt/ and /snow/ for user friendliness.

As pointed out in >>6288 staff seem to have a weird vision of how to run a chan that's not consistent with how other chans are run. The continued parroting of "read the rules" by staff is troubling when there's seemingly no consensus among staff about what those rules mean. It's not unreasonable to ask staff to clarify or be more explicit about what results in a ban.

No. 6311

I don't think it's unreasonable to be asking what you are in here? I wouldn't be in here having a conversation in this thread if I didn't want change. I'm following the conversation with interest and have already read the comments you're pointing to.

I find the longpost/blogpost argument and whether admin did or didn't say a longpost is a blogpost to be a bit of derailment. I agree that clear reasons for a ban need to be given but if it was a blogpost, being long or not is really not an issue.

Some of the posts I'm referring to that have become rampant. These are from the Momokun thread in the last 7hrs. Yes, it's been livelier due to her cam streams, but it encapsulates the cultural problem affecting a lot of threads now. I feel like it's because some anons complained loudly in here about mini-modding, and now they have their way and people interfere with the cows much of the time.

I know that bans are also issued without redtext but if you have any serious intention to stop the slide of some threads into cultures of pure cowtipping, you have to redtext the offending posts or the people trying to organise it. How else will new people learn? And there's nothing the rest of us can say for fear of a ban for mini-modding. We can't report them all for fear of a ban for too many reports.

It's just annoying. Men are shitty, but being that obsessed with picking apart examples and screencaps is the kind of thing that incels get obsessed with. And like incels, they turn on everyone telling them to chill out about it.

Please do not worry about being banned over a fear of over reporting, it usually never happens. Over reporting bans may be issued when someone clogs up reports with 6 month or 2 year old threads.

On the related topic of redtexting, staff has decided to lessen red texting.Obvious example offenses like cowtipping will be taken into consideration for red text but minor offenses will no longer be red texted. Don't assume that no red text means there's no ban. Anything that is reported is always seen.

Nta but you guys are really bad at listening huh. The users are very volatile. They don't listen to mods, they can't accept criticism or any negative comments about the thread, to the point where they derail other threads with shitposting. They get baited daily and then whine about it being autosaged, and why not autosage it? The thread itself is a circle jerk of fearmongering and hysteria and it attracts neckbeards like flies on shit.

I honestly think the worst part is that you can't say anything about the thread, even in this very thread without anons jumping on you either with insults or in defense of the thread. In all irony they're acting like men themselves. They announce their presence in every thread, act like their opinion is important and insult you if you don't agree. Not only that but they make bait shit in threads so they can do those things. And the "men do this all over the internet we should be allowed to here!" argument is just as obnoxious.

Also, this site isn't pro-men but it certainly isn't anti-men like you seem to think. I've been here since the beginning and the reason we don't want men here is because the men on /cgl/ and most chans in general are whiny annoying little shitlords. It's certainly not because everyone here is a lesbian radfem. I don't want men here, but I also don't think that the thread is working because of the fucking users.

The fact that you like to describe these women as "really creepy" and "obsessed" doesn't inspire any confidence in me that you're not just a male who can't handle that some women hate him. You're being patronizing and degrading while asking a distressed group of people to stop expressing their distress. Basically, you're calling women crazy and illogical and using words that imply as much while asking (or trying to make a mod force) them to shut up. You're not helping the issue.

I'm not a user of that thread but that's what I'm seeing here. Women don't just wake up hating men, in my experience, something bad happened to them that made them this way and they're hurt and using this primarily woman occupied space, one of few, to safely express that. As it stands, you've already used language that invalidates them and you think their experiences are just "stories". The more I type about this the more it sounds like you're an offended guy trying to sound like a lady to appear unbiased, since a lot of dudes also dismiss the bad things that happen to women as "just stories".

I actually did receive a ban for reporting less-than-day-old unsaged posts (that needed to be saged) about a year ago. This was back when saging existed for /pt/.
I was very confused and upset by the ban, tried appealing, sending an e-mail, and ultimately had to wait it out. And I wasn't spamming a crazy amount of reports either; it was just the Momokun thread iirc and I erred on the side of caution.

So I don't blame anons for being afraid. I have been there.

I don't agree with this. This feels like a kneejerk reaction to the other end of the spectrum.
I read gender crit in OT and some of the art threads and that's usually it, but recently had reasons to vent about some men (sex/sexist related things some of which I wanted advice on) and went to the man hate thread and had decent exchanges there regarding those situations and those men.
I've been reading it semi regularly since then and see the derail/bait/bait-taking etc. I haven't personally seen the same nature of man hate posts in snow or pt. They are usually much more tame and are relevant to the discussion (many cows have gross cheating bfs/husbands for example).

I just wanted to give some background to the thoughts I have as suggestion, because I could be naive regarding the larger scale of OT (since I only regularly visit like 4 threads there or so) and maybe that's where the man hate overflow occurs?
I think the man hate thread should exist at least for containment purposes. Punish off topic obvious overflow (though again I can't personally recall ever seeing any) and punish trolls/bait in the man hate thread as well as those who take obvious bait. I am indifferent to whether or not it is autosaged, though autosaging it may cause overflow. Closing the thread is almost certain to cause overflow.

Sorry for length. I don't intend on posting in this thread multiple times.

You keep saying you have a right to complain but so do I, so do the users you dislike, who you and your friends are actually trying to silence via bans. So yeah, here's me exercising my ~rights~ to complain: I think your posts are stupid as shit and hopefully lolcow never takes the direction you want it to.

The man hating is really not as terrible as some anon make it seem, of course if you post in the vent thread "Lol farmers in the man hate thread are retarded" people are going to tell you to just hide the thread.

That's literally what people are asking for, that this shit gets banned when it gets out of hand/extremist and just like EVERY topic that's been banned in the past, it be permanently banned if the vast majority can't keep themselves under control. Why do you think man hate is above any of the other topics we can no longer discuss for these exact reasons?

You (or like minded anons) keep saying "well I'd really just like a solution!" And we keep bringing up the same solution we've used for everything when this happens, and you brush it off like no one is saying anything.

>>6339
God how are you so dense. No one is saying you can't complain also, everyone has a problem that every time an anon has negative concrit on the subject it gets deflected, valid points ignored and they're accused of being a man/whatever….

I'm a bit uncomfortable with the direction that the Moo thread is headed in since she started camming. There are obviously some new users who are not here for the milk, not to mention the pretty blatant cowtipping that's been going on at camversity. It's been somewhat alleviated by having a separate cam thread but I'm worried that it's only a matter of time before the thread is moved backed to /snow again.

No. 6356

>>6355
I stopped following the Moo thread after her sexual harassment scandal. Not only did anons act cringy as fuck about it, it was obvious that Nanabear, Sabrina, yanderejane and the rest of the twitter thot squad were selfposting and jerking each other off ("OMG BUNNY MUH QUEEN SLAY HERRRR"), derailing and cowtipping. Why can't you people just enjoy watching Momo ruin herself, you really don't need to intervene or act as if other costhots are above her. The anons claiming that Momo is a straight out sociopath are reaching with their shit and ruining the whole thread but pointing this out makes them call you out for either being Moo/Vamp herself or a WK. You know you can hate her without being a spergy fuck right?

I can't believe how much this place has changed under this team. The rules may as well be dumped at this point, there's cancer everywhere, and communication feels combative. Users want to see more redtext and list valid reasons why (like anons learning from other's mistakes) - lol fuck your red text, we're going to do it less, in the middle of a tsunami of faggotry and cancer. Users beg for a hellweek - fuck that too. Users ask for better info and communication - well, guess what.

Many of us were doing that and I know damn sure that I'm not any of those people that you mentioned. Nanabear's friend was posting on there but Nana herself was not. Being as paranoid as Moo makes you look bad, not the people you're bitching about.

>>6355
Yeah the cowtipping is cringy as fuck and it's heading towards tempcow behavior with the Plainey younow cowtipping. A mod already stepped in but I think having a mod actively ban people who admit to tipping the cow would help a lot more.

Again, her friend dumped those. She hangs around in the threads. I didn't say anything about Sabrina or YJ so I don't know why you're bringing that up. Those two actively lurk and pretend not to but Nana's friend wasn't afraid to admit her lurking, she even admitted to the text dumping and linked her FB as further proof. Not sure what the problem is here, anon.

If anything needs to be solved, it's the constant infighting. It gets real silly cause we're all on the same side and know that certain cows lurk their threads and get off on all the infighting and derailing.

I just wanted to ask a question first rather than threaten a ban. Since so many people who read this site (she can’t so she sends her monkeys) who believe Joy’s weight gain is from “inflammation” can I just post a pic (no Blogposting) of what actual inflammation looks like cuz hearing the amount of people telling her “it looks like such stereotypical inflammation” cuz it’s KEKworthy, nauseating as all hell, and I can’t fathom the level of stupid to make such retarded comments.

It's probably not worth it to try and have a discussion about it. From what I have seen on the board as of late, people don't want facts and research to get in the way of tinfoiling and nitpicking. The likely response is going to be that you're going to get mini-modded by anons and risk a ban depending on how closely farmhands are reading the reports.

It sucks, but that's the board culture now.

Hey Admin/Farmhands, I was wondering if we could please bring back the Spoonie/ Munchausen’s threads. I understand they were banned under a previous Admin for excessive blog posting, but I feel like there is still a huge amount of milk in that community that is worth talking about.

We have the proana threads and multiple instathot threads going on in /snow/ right now, which are easily some of the worst cases of selfposting, vendettas, and lack of milk that I’ve seen in a while. In light of this, I hope that you will consider allowing us to have our Munchie threads as well.

This is true. Without Raven there now the most active topics are Onision and Momokun. Mira's topic only gets active when she shows up to WK herself and Vicky's involved in some milk right now so she's fine though.

The others don't seem to be as active and there some choice topics in /snow/ that could benefit being bumped to /pt/. Shay for one is a hidden gem of grossness that would definitely reach a wider audience in /pt/.

>>6385
She is gross but she's also very milky. I mean she just recently got a bed, she flew herself to Mexico to meet an edgy rape fantasy tumblr dom she met online, she begs for money to go to porn auditions, she's doing porn with whatever STD/STI she has, and she's about to leave her apartment to go live in a house she ASSUMES is being bought by this guy for the two of them. That's pretty damn milky.

No. 6387

UO but I feel like the Shay thread being in /pt/ is a bad idea. Unless farmhands want to deal with near constant cowtipping and having to stop infighting every hour on the hour it’s not worth it. Though it might be interesting to finally get to the bottom of ‘Just how often does Shay post here?’ or ‘Why is it that every time something really milky happens, some anon immediately starts nitpicking and posting old photos instead of drinking the milk?’

Shay threads have the potential to be great but right now they’re just dumpster fires filled with endless commentary about her scabby pussy instead of the really milky shit.

"Some people will complain"

It should probably focus on the fact that samefagging at it's core is trying to deceive others into thinking you are multiple people.

FFS you posted a link to a mod post, that only links back to the thread that you locked.

Agreeing with other anon, Kelly doesn't own the rights to her own likeness, even hollywood stars don't. Look up American laws before you bend over for lawyers you piece of shit. If Kelly's images aren't ones that she took, if they are on tumblr or anywhere else on the internet, they are free game. That's how the law works. If I take a candid shot of her in public and post it here it's infringing on my rights to take it down.

No. 6418

1) the law does not work this way, any pic or video Kelly has publically shared is free game to repost.

2) this sets a terrible precedent for other vows to get a letter head and send you a fake cease and desist on their own behalf.

Good job showing up just to assure everyone that you’re totally not dead, even though users have been throwing out valid concerns and questions into this thread for months without any real answers from you or your “team.”

This site is obviously too large for you to handle, and you either cannot or will not mold your moderators into a cohesive team, listen to feedback from its user base, or ban the posters that are only here to troll and sling shit.

I’m sure most of us were ready to give you the benefit of doubt about these issues. However, when you ignore the site for months on end, let your moderation team run unpoliced, and refuse to even add a small description as to what moderation duties even entail when you’re obviously desperately understaffed, you have to understand why there’s little sympathy to be found for you. If this is too much for you to handle, just come out and say it. It would be the far more respectable thing to do.

The thread wasn't removed just because she sent us a legal threat. Her lawyer contacted our hosting provider and our hosting provider required us to remove the content. We wouldn't have removed the content for any other reason. The lawyer and law firm appear to be authentic and likely not just Kelly impersonating a lawyer.

The main issue I'm having with all this is that it's always important for these kinds of sites to make sure that the Admin/Owner/Host understand both what is going on on the site, and the laws protecting that.

Can there be a rule against people telling others that someone they created a thread about isn't milky enough or whatever? Isn't that basically backseat modding anyway.

i'm pretty sure mods should decide who's a cow or not, and if the user base doesn't think they're a cow/milky enough the conversation will die down anyway. Opening new threads to see a bunch of ''oh but that person isn't that milky'' is just pure annoying.

they should be banned because they're a male. the said they were a male in multiple threads. even if you think he's a "woman" or some shit he's not a female. and we have banned trannies in the past who feel the need to mention it. if you don't you don't get a ban, easy. now stop.

trans people who say they're trans in the middle of some unrelated threads should be banned, but in a thread where the statement is completely relevant both to what they're saying and to the thread subject, and in /ot/, that's ridiculous and if you think it should be banned I fear for any imageboard you would ever run, including an all-girl imageboard. even if you think they're male, that's clearly not what that rule is intended for.

the full rule is

>3.5d Male posters: Do not announce your gender or post in a "male here" way. Don't post simply to point out if you're attracted to the subject or not. Nobody cares about your preferences.

We're still investigating for certainty on the possible identity of some posters. Other spam threads in snow have been locked for similar reasons.
>>6469
Red texting every ban would mean reading a site full of red text, the site has never once been moderated in this manner. All warning bans would be marked along with communication to anons. Major example ban offenses will still be red texted. This includes male posting, cowtipping, and self posting. Instances of minor infighting and sage issues can be handled without red text.
Users don't need red text to hold the moderation team accountable for their ban choices. If anyone has a legitmiate issue with a ban reason then they have the right to post a complaint in this very thread. Again, appealing bans will always be encouraged.

also mods should listen to what we're saying instead of the literal opposite. you say people will complain about too much, but they are complaining about too little. redtext is the only thing that shows who's been banned. other types of forums don't have redtext but they do mark all posts that have been banned.

>I understood armchairing as pulling diagnoses out of your ass, not discussing the behavior of actually mentally ill cows.
Sometimes armchairing is like that, I would even say the majority of the time it is anons medfagging and armchairing about things they don't know for certain.
In this case it's mainly because it falls more into "pyschology 101" blogging territory. It's fine to discuss Tuna's bpd in relation to her behavior but adding detailed commentary about bpd itself isn't needed.

The first and last parts of anon's post were alright because they related to the cow but the middle portion below is armchairing.
>Luna has bpd, so she splits and has black and white thinking, and she probably splits on herself. She either thinks she's the hottest person to ever live, or the ugliest. She takes the selfies when she feels hot, and she posts them when she needs validation because she feels shit. There is no in-between fpr her, no grey area and that's why we see her flip flop on other people as well. It's why there are all these contradictory posts about people in her life as well. It's not that she can't keep her story straight, well it is, but it's not as simple as her being a stupid liar. When bpd people split someone, they're pretty much incapable of remembering they ever held opinions that contradict their current feelings.

No. 6502

>>6499
Note that you have to take what Tuna says with a grain of salt. It's pretty much what the farmhand said and armchairing is annoying. Nobody wants to go into a thread and see dumb paragraphs from multiple people about what illnesses a person might have. It happens in every single Tuna thread and way too often.

I'm sick of anons jumping down other's throats and automatically screeching that you are on the cow's side if you notice something or point out something that doesn't completely crucify the cow.
Examples include the 10 year old Mina fans in the Dasha threads. I used to like reading milk about all 4 of them and then I totally understood why it only became the Dasha thread, but I feel like a lot of Mina's youtube fans have come on here because you can say something as minor as 'Dasha looks slightly better than her usual shitty self in this photo' and they will start screeching replies like 'SLIGHTLY BETTER? OMG STOP STICKING UP FOR DASHA..THESE WHITEKNIGHTS, I SWEAR!'
Same shit happens in every thread.
'Lainey is ugly but looks better with x coloured hair'
'Omg she looks ugly with every colour, seriously what are you blind?'
And in Raven's thread someone has a theory about something happening, even specifys that it may or may not be true, and anons screech like the person said it was gospel.

Anyway, I don't know what this particular type of infighting is called but it annoys me. There is more polite ways to disagree, and also just because someone disagrees, it doesn't mean they LOVE the cow in question.

Maybe leaving them open is better though, if only for the fact that when Lola or Claire finally pass away, there’s going to be an immediate flood of discussion about it? I always lean towards keeping threads open.

OT, but I wish we could have another Town Hall meeting. I feel like the site needs one desperately. Barring that, it feels like the place will continue to slowly degrade, due to mods (seemingly) not having a unified focus about what’s best for the site, or even a unified approach to moderation, and the worst users, who all appear to be twelve year olds, have somehow taken over.

It wasn’t that long ago that users lurked more and learned board culture, they’d get policed by long time posters when they stepped out of line and gradually they’d assimilate. That’s not the case now, and the bad posters are the ones attempting to mini mod and police threads. I can’t believe the amount of cowtipping that goes on, and very few anons say anything about it, I think for fear of temp bans. Tempcow was a lot of fun, but it brought a lot of bad behavior back with it when it was shut down.

There are a few cows on /pt/ who I think were bad for the site in the long run, Mariah being one. It’s like certain cows really cause users to sperg heavily.

I miss the time of fresh milk, thoughtful, funny users, and lc itself being a fun place. It’s frustrating to see it go downhill.

This is where I feel like the staff have really dropped the ball. You can't report anything that's nitpicking if it's about Dasha or whiteknighting Mina and Edwin. Well, you can report it, but don't expect for anything to be done about it. Is nitpicking every single photo of Dasha even necessary? I get it, she did the same to Mina. But she wasn't following any rules, we are. How can nitpicking be against the rules yet be so damn rampant in a thread that the staff was watching so closely? It's the same in the thread on the Onions.

You can't even ask them to chill cause then they'll jump down your throat, it's absolutely embarrassing. Like you, I understand why it became Dasha only. But the brown-nosing when it comes to the two "former" cows make us look bad. You don't have to stan Mina to put down Dasha. Some of us don't like any of the bitches and just want to watch the fire.

The nitpicking on this site is just crazy.

You can't nitpick Mina the way you want and that's "really dropping the ball"? Look at the thread histories, Dasha started a thread herself in order to shift the conversation over to nitpicking Mina. Is it any wonder that very thing is not allowed?

This is something I think alot of staff members (and the community) can agree with. We'll try to be better about catching repetitive nitpicking since it is a problem that distracts from actual milk. The only problem that lies with this is threads where anons feel that nitpicking is actually milk.

Nowhere did I even say that it's not fair we can't nitpick about Mina. I said they were once all cows and that makes the brown-nosing embarrassing, because it's pretending like they never were. The main issue that I brought up was the nitpicking getting out of control. Learn to read.

I'm another person who got flamed to shit for saying anything even remotely negative about Mina, also posted recently there when I was scrolling by since I saw posters still jumping on people who don't like Mina. I tried pointing out the same in the past; they were all cows, it doesn't change because Dasha is worse. Edwin is pathetic & creepy and the whole "littol" thing is cringey, but we're supposed to be up Mina's butthole just because Dasha sucks. The fact that Edwin has posted here and uses images from lolcow like we're his little army says enough, meh.

Would really like to see a change in that thread.

Damn that really sucks, anon. I don't see why Edwin and Mina can't have their own thread in snow? Even if it's "lolnomilk" which is what we'd most likely hear, at least it would give people a place to not get shit on by the stans. Cyr could stay in Dasha's thread since he's dating her. If the staff won't do anything about it in the Dasha thread, this would be the better solution and less of a headache for them. Moo's calves, Onion's layers, Penis nose's daughter, Joy's psychos, and other cows have their own threads in snow.

It just seems like less of a headache to give them their own thread and would keep the infighting down cause anyone who feels particularly childish about them having one, don't have to go to it and wouldn't have to see it cause it would be in snow.

The only problem is that it won't do anything about the brown-nosing going on in Dasha's thread; so, we would still have to suffer through it if we want to keep up on Dasha drama.

I appealed and also emailed the mods and asked them to show me the previous comment I had received a ban for.

The ban was repealed, but mods did not reply to my email.

Oh good. Shout out to the farmhand who misread my post as "I'm a fuckin French dude" instead of its actual meaning that I'm in a relationship with one and slapped me with a permaban without any further investigation. If you had checked my history for even a second, you would have seen posts about my hair, makeup, perfume, etc that would have told you I'm a girl. But no, instant permaban.

Farmhand in the onision thread is an illiterate retard who doesn't seem to understand why people use this site.

Keeps banning people for posting caps with useful information, and not banning people who're obviously shilling KF and calling this site a place for incels. Assuming they're not the same person, there are at least three people in that thread who should've been banned who weren't, whilst the one providing useful info was. So now we're not going to get any of the delicious onion going to jail for ruining his swamp milk, but people who think this board is for incel dudes are allowed to stick around. Great.

Oh, and apparently I caught a ban for "derailing" for questioning why the farmhand banned a poster bringing in milk.

May as well, to be honest. I was one of the ones who got banned without getting the redtext. The ones you're referring to could have gotten banned too. I still don't know how I was derailing but the anon who was actually taking the time to go through the vast amount of posts on KF about the Onion drama didn't deserve to get banned. I wouldn't even bother after that if I were them. What's the point of posting milk if you're just going to get banned for it.

You're assuming you know who and who isn't banned. All KF shills have been given warning bans and the anon who was redtexted was banned for linking to the website, and continously posting caps of over 5 pages worth of KF threads.
They can just post the relevant information and documents, it isn't hard.

>4.1 Do not deceptively post about yourself in the third person for any reason.

The anon was given a 5 minute warning ban, however in response to this various anons have decided to instead continue to derail the onision thread.
>>6548
Caps of kiwi farms commentary isn't milk. By this logic posting an entire kiwifarms thread is milk. The shilling isn't going to be tolerated, if you want to read what other anons are saying about the topic you can head on over to the website yourself.

That's good to know but how are we supposed to know if you don't redtext the users? You made an example of the one anon who was providing interesting shit to read, rather than the one who outed themselves as an outsider by calling us incels.

>They can just post the relevant information and documents, it isn't hard.

I said it in the thread already, but you're either ignoring it or genuinely too stupid to understand but the relevant documents don't make any sense without the explanations provided by the kiwifarms posters. How is it a problem for anon to cap the explanations about what the legalese and biology terms in the documents posted mean, and how is it shilling? I'm a biofag and tons of the shit about wetland biology doesn't make any sense even to me without an explanation from someone who knows about it, and you're expecting anons to accurately paraphrase it? if it's so easy I'd like to see you do it.

They're providing the caps so we don't have to visit that shithole of a site to get the relevant info. Shilling would be them not capping, linking to the KF thread and saying we need to visit if we want to know what the legal documents mean. Capping stops us from having to visit KF. That is the literal opposite of shilling. What you're saying is the same as saying anons who rehost onions videos so we can watch them without vising his youtube are shilling for him. It is pants on head retarded.

Are you one of the ESL farmhands by any chance? because you don't seem to have a good grasp of what the word shilling actually means. Because you're doing it. In your post.

What does this reply even mean. How is your reading comprehension so bad?

No. I got an answer to something I didn't ask. I'm asking you now, in this thread, if you think that any old anon is capable of reiterating the information that those kf commentary posts contain. I'm telling you I'm a biologist and I wouldn't be capable of doing it. Who the fuck knows off the top of their head how a wetland habitat works or what any set of government codes or regulations mean without having worked in that field? The commentary is necessary for understanding the screenshots. How many more times do I have to say this? The screenshots. Don't. Make. Sense. By. Themselves.

Either anons screenshot the relevant info to give context to the caps, or they paraphrase the kiwi posts, which they probably can't do. And even if the could, why would you bother when someone else has already done it?

No. 6559

Because you're not answering any questions, i'm not even that anon and i can see it lmao.
You're deflecting and again, being bitter that there was relevant information on KF that was posted here so others could be in the loop.
I mean, but what can you expect from a farmhand who doesn't even know how to use shilling properly.
Also lol got banned for mentioning that the farmhand is wrong about kf. Maybe you need to let someone else take on your position if you can't even take criticism and call everything sperging. Knowing lolcow vocab and using it correctly seems like the first thing you should know as a mod.

And the other way round too. The whole KF Margo thread started as a post-by-post port of the threads here. Fun fact: the KFer doing it was a farmhand here at the time. Point being, there is a regular exchange of caps and ideas, depending which thread subject it is.

Anyway,
OP was a bit retarded to post such lengthy caps when a shorter assembly comprising paraphrasing, image collaging or even copypasting choice excepts would have done. When some uys story about his own wetland, hidden behind a powerlevel spoiler on KF, is expanded and posted here for literally no reason, that is one way of overdoing it. I don't give a fuck about some guy's personal trees and owls. If I want to read his powerlevel story, I will do so by going to KF and reading it.

Buttblasted anons going off about "milk": it's a public site and you can read it anytime. Go click. No account even needed. People talking about the same stuff elsewhere isn't milk anymore than than a crosspost from Pull is milk. The 'expert' opinions are helpful given that anyone decent has run away from the Greg threads, but as I say could have been summarised.

Deliberately conflating the misreading ban, then farmhand confirming there are some farmhands for whom English is a second language when asked - there's no proof those two events are even connected. Even English speakers misread things. Then to attack this farmhand responding here just comes off like assholery. Why would someone want to be a farmhand with you irrational fucks going at them because you're too lazy to follow up with reading the KF thread yourselves and want to be spoonfed it. Btw they're moved on to sperging about this military record for the umpteenth time, enjoy.



The thing I glean from reading this thread is how much time farmhands waste in /ot/. Meantime actual juicy gossip threads are going down the toilet and cowtipping and blogging are still the new normal. How is /ot/ so important? It's "ot", who cares if people derail? How does it come firat on the list?

No. 6601

One of my main concerns about the moderation here is the mandatory saging. I've been visiting and posting on quite a few different forums and imageboards for about a decade now and I can definitively say that this is the only one where posting pretty much anything without saging will result in a ban. 4chan even did the opposite and made saging invisible. Making bumping a thread a bannable offense kills discussion. I understand telling people to sage things like blogposts and off topic things, but it's been taken to such an extreme that I'd say probably 80% of posts made are saged out of fear. Hell, even when someone is on topic and posting new milk, most of the time they sage because they think they'll get banned if they don't. Then the thread falls down the catalog and nobody ever sees the new info.

Let me predict the staff response too, "Using medical terminology is often associated with armchairing, so that's why you were banned." Because remember, it doesn't matter what the content of your post is or what the rules say, you get a ban if it just looks wrong or rubs somebody the wrong way.

it's starting to seem like they either don't actually take the time to read posts that were reported or they don't realise they don't actually have to ban people whose posts were reported. People abuse the report box to report things they don't like all the time.

Also just gonna throw this out there, at a certain point bans aren't deterrents they're just the cost for posting what you want. Short term bans don't really do anything to kerb annoying behaviour, and from what I've seen they're not even long enough to make those users go away - I've only been banned once and I didn't even know because I went to sleep, by the time I tried to post again it'd expired. I'm guessing this is the case for most other users as well, the site is slow af so most people check in a couple of times a day. Anything under 2 days is basically pointless.

So much whining over something so temporary.

The reason why it gets annoying in Luna's thread is because it often derails into talking only about that and that's not milk. Many of us don't want to sift through a bunch of retarded text all about drugs/prescriptions and mental illnesses. Tuna says that she has bpd. Moo says she is bipolar. Just because a cow says something, doesn't make it true. Until we see official diagnosis or actual proof, why even bother believing them? They're cows. In pt.

Sorry, but that doesn't seem to be true. Seems like the clock starts ticking from the time the ban is issued. I also had a ban that expired because I didn't visit the site for like two days and when I then attempted to post, I saw that someone gave me a 24-hour ban in the meantime (which obviously didn't affect me in any way, as I only saw the information about it, but wasn't banned anymore).

Not that anon, but the dog love thread was built on infighting. It shouldn't even exist imo. OP should've made a pet love thread (which I'm pretty sure we already have in the form of a pet appreciation thread) instead of making a thread about a single animal to spite the people who hurt her feefees. Everything about it is so petty and immature, I encourage the mods to check it out.

No. 6705

I did not make the thread to infight but to read positive things about anon's dogs. I suppose the cat mention was a mistake from my side but as you might have noticed most people in the thread say positive things about cats so that ended up being a non-issue.

I am interested in dogs particularly at the moment so I wanted a dog thread, not a general pet thread. What is wrong with having a separate space? You could say that the dog hate thread should not exist, after all the anon could make a 'pet hate' thread to lump all the annoying pets and owners together.
I do not understand why this thread must be raided when the dog hate thread exists. Why is it okay to derail the dog love thread but not okay to criticise whatever the dog haters say in their own thread? Besides,
the anons in the dog hate thread said to create a positive dog thread (to not bother them where I don't belong) so I did. But instead of staying in their lane they followed to the thread where they are unwanted like crazies.
I am too lazy to join a dog forum so I thought there is nothing wrong with a lolcow dog thread.
Notice that it is a thread to talk about dogs, not dog haters, which would be the real shitty, petty and 'narcisstic' (as some derailer wrote - this is what I meant as single anon, though IDK obviously) thing to do.
That is all as I do not want to fight even here. I hope mods take a look and decide whatever.

>I did not make the thread to infight
Going off your own word, you started shit in the dog hate thread instead of just hiding it, then proceeded to get triggered so badly that you made a dog love/cat hate thread instead of just bumping the preexisting pet love thread. The thread was the product of infighting and bitterness.

>most people in the thread say positive things about cats so that ended up being a non-issue.

Since when? Sounds like your just scapegoating catfags now. This also makes it seem like the reason why you encouraged cat hate was to further spite the posters in the dog hate thread, most of whom are catfags in your mind. El oh el.

>You could say that the dog hate thread should not exist, after all the anon could make a 'pet hate' thread to lump all the annoying pets and owners together.

Dog hate was a reoccurring theme in the unpopular opinions thread, where as general pet hate wasn't. Having a dog love thread wouldn't've been an issue in the first place if a pet love general didn't already exist and if you did not create it because of your butthurt.

>What is wrong with having a separate space?

The site doesn't revole around you or what you want to see. We already have a pet thread. Dogs are pets. Go post about them there.

>I do not understand why this thread must be raided when the dog hate thread exists

Stop being so melodramatic lmao, no one is ~raiding~ your thread. Hypocritical of you to even bring that up all things considered. Again, people are unhappy with the thread because it's the product of your butthurt and it was more or less made to bait them. You can hardly blame them for being pissed about that.

>Besides, the anons in the dog hate thread said to create a positive dog thread (to not bother them where I don't belong) so I did.

They were wrong too, then. Why throw them under the bus?

>But instead of staying in their lane they followed to the thread where they are unwanted like crazies.

Wow. Talk about the pot calling the fucking kettle black.

>Notice that it is a thread to talk about dogs, not dog haters, which would be the real shitty, petty and 'narcisstic' (as some derailer wrote - this is what I meant as single anon, though IDK obviously) thing to do.

No, what you did was just as shitty, petty, and narcissistic. You made it to spite dog haterz and attempt to trigger them by encouraging cat/owner hate. And it's not like you're encouraging your fellow dogfags not to shit on people who don't like dogs. A few anons in the thread have already gone on to do exactly that and you didn't seem to take issue with it. Reminds me of how you "frankly personally do not hate cats but think the topics are so closely related they would come up anyway."

All the detective-fagging cluttering the thread stymies the readability of actual updates and related drama. It's really distracting and annoying.

Not keen on the KF sperging either but how is e-investigation outside the scope of normal lolcow material? This chanboard basically exists to document lolcows' behaviour, imo that's e-investigation, even though it's easy to do. Although I will say those people in the investigation squad as they're calling it are majorly gatekeeping the milk and not respecting board culture when they come here to post.


>I know the stuff is illegal, but LC doesn't strike me as a place of justice and doxxing.

The original munchie threads had a lot of this going on being that a lot of the cows were scammers, same with the Nick Bate thread. I've always thought there was an admittedly hard to define line on all chanboards where the users would rally together to absolutely obliterate someone if they crossed it, and that's always been a beautiful thing to me. I'm thinking of feet in lettuce bins, or calls for a personal army resulting in the OP being doxxed type incidents. Sometimes a cow just transcends being an internet cow and the only milk to be had is seeing them go down.

doxxing always used to be fair game as long as the person was a legal adult and put the info out there themselves, I don't actually know if this has changed. Either way mods seem to be allowing it for the moment.

also namefagging is allowed, nay encouraged if you are talking about yourself. I'm assuming Dynastia is Darcy from the camgirls thread? You're not allowed to post here in third person if you have ever been discussed in a thread. See: Everyone who has ever been outed for it.

Anonymous is mandatory if you're just an anonymous poster, but as far as I know if you're a cow and you're here to talk about yourself, the rule has always been to namefag. Posting pretending to be someone else and talking about yourself in the third person, which you'd have to do to be anonymous as a cow, would result in having your post history outed and marked as it did with Kiki, mystery, etc. Obviously this doesn't apply though if the person isn't who I thought it was.

He's always been kind of an attention whoring faggot, and I don't know what he brings to this place (if anything at all).

Dynastia isn't even an admin on KF I have no idea why he's bringing offsite drama to here. We already know faildoxing is dangerous.

No. 6775

Why can't farmhands ban incels in the ot/ man-hate thread. Stop 'begging' them to stop fighting and just ban them already for christ sake

No. 6776

>>6773
someone else got banned for infighting tho.

No. 6777

>>6773

A member of ZSIS has stated that they are not the same people who are faildoxing, and in Dyn apologized for conflating them.

But since this board is anon, no one can know for sure who is posting what. Some of the dox which have been posted here without source attribution could be ruses.

>>6774

But very few anons even questioned the sources of what has been posted and who was posting it. Instead a greater number of anons praised them.

No. 6778

>>6776

Where?

Any anons who question the validity of the dox or even dare to suggest that we exercise caution are now being accused of being Kiwis defending KF.

>>6775
Incels are banned on sight but it doesn't change the fact that the man-hate anons still take the bait.

No. 6782

>>6773
Not only that, but he's also ignored that post where Admin requested to not discuss a certain person for now and continued to post about that person. That guy is an absolute shithead.

they got banned for infighting…with dyn who was namefagging?

why?

No. 6785

>>6784
This. Dyn is an attention whoring, namefagging male poster. Why didn't he get banned?

No. 6786

>>6785
He was banned here after a few posts >>>/snow/701748

No. 6787

Would a mod mind telling anons in the Dasha thread to stop trying to force milk? The person in question got banned for cowtipping, but like in Shayna's thread, it's going to keep happening. Not sure what staff can do about it, but maybe a warning?

He was literally back hours later to post more irrelevant BS >>>/snow/702229. A day hadn't even passed. It either wasn't a real ban, or he ban evaded on top of namefagging and derailing. Once again, I have no idea why he hasn't been banned, or what he brings to the table to warrant not being banned.
He'll probably come back to shit up the thread again the moment it picks back up.

Naruru's posting in the Miranda thread has gotten out of hand. It's not really milk and she has a whiteknight that won't stop sperging out at anyone questioning why Naruru's claims aren't milk.

Naruru has also been trying to incite personal army shit on PULL and I'm worried she's going to bring it here.

She literally ruined the thread.

He has always had a weird obsession with this place to the point where it wouldn't surprise me if he crept in as a farmhand at some point

No. 6794

>>6791
Replying to this, can we please fucking ban that anon who keeps whiteknighting Naruru (possibly is her) and shitting up the thread with her ..

She's infighting with everyone who points out how stupid she is, and gets super defensive for no reason.

No. 6795

>>6743
Yeah, nigger literallt means a black person? So are we not allowed to use derogatory terms on this board?

No. 6796

idk women in general DO seem to be more autistic admins (unless the male ones are literally autistic) , I mean just compare any women run site to a male run equivalent.. it's sad cause I enjoy the idea of a female board, but I think it was waaay better when we had that one male farmer.

No. 6797

>>6738
no one gives af about sexism… seriously what has this place become. People worrying about sexism and crying about blacks being called niggers. This is the internet, and this is an imageboard. Go back to gurugossip or PULL if you want fluff.

they should probably go to c.c

>anons get banned for "cowtipping" trying to call out moo and onion and other various illegal activities, including sexual assault etc.

okay, glad to know where we stand.

Iirc, they're torturing puppies by raping them with fire-ant covered wooden stakes, decapitating them, cutting out their vaginas and fucking them. Cutting the nipples off of dogs, forcing them to eat their nipples while they're suffering and bleeding, shoving nipples inside their vaginas, cutting off their tails, fucking them, then killing them. They're not just run of the mill dogfuckers. Loads of them are also pedos. If people reporting this kind of horrific shit is comparable to squealing on Onion's fairly mild retardation, then idk what to tell you.

Thirding this. Pretty sure all Naruru's whiteknight posts are herself. Her puppetmaster shit is annoying and shitting up Randa's thread.

No. 6808

>>6805

Did you read the thread? The anon baited other anons into an argument about race and continued to derail the thread.

No. 6809

why do we have a kpop "critical" thread and a kpop general thread?

seems useless.

No. 6810

>>6809
it makes sense, if you're critical of someone's favourite BTS in kpop general there tend to be days-long derails
