With the move here to Poal, I wanted everyone to get settled in before doing any mod-like things besides removing those that hate, mock, or sneer at us through their words.

The sidebar on the right needs a bit of work. If anyone would like to work with me on wording or rules or clarifications or links, I'm happy to accept the help.

ON THE SIDEBAR is a nice little legal(not-legal)/cancel-culture disclaimer that doubles as a Voat-PV disclaimer. Feel free to read through it and forget about it entirely as you post here.

For those of you that notice shill/anti-Q/anti-Trump activity, PLEASE ping me to it and don't respond sarcastically (or at all). Responding sarcastically makes YOU look anti-Q when I browse through your comment history. Mistakes were made, and many apologies were had; not fun. If you want to engage them, feel free to post anything pro-Q outside of here and you'll have PLENTY of those types to banter with.

How to ping: @Crensch <--- that's a ping. Place it anywhere in your comment and I'll get a notification.

Also on the sidebar are posting rules. Please pay attention to them. Too many low-effort/no-context/unsupported-claim posts and I'll have to do mod things.

I don't want to do mod things beyond removing those that hate us.

As a community, try and help each other raise the bar for posts. If you posted and someone is telling you that your post is lacking, it could be that your post is lacking. It could be that they're wrong. Work it out if you can.

Let me know what you all think below.

Thanks

I look forward to when we will see not only moar of some excellent analysis (which there has been some good stuff lately, citing the article recently out of Italy), but moar about stuff that HAS happened, not just "should happen", "might happen" "gonna happen".

Just a general statement. One of the pointers i give to others. Always look at the qualifiers. And if something DID happen, let me know!

I appreciate your work and the work of all the anons here. ThanQ. I've been sorta out of the net, other doin's going on.

Godspeed. ; )

Moar: Stuff that HAS happened. Stuff that DID happen.

Less: Stuff that SHOULD happen, MIGHT happen, or GONNA happen.

I like it.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for your time and effort that goes into this board. Thank you! I am a long time lurker from voat . I really appreciate being able to check this board for current events and Q related items without spending hours digging around myself. I appreciate all the work you do for those of us searching for the truth.

Oops I just did that lol.

Shucks, sometimes you just can't resist.

But I'm with you, weed these faggots out.

Shucks, sometimes you just can't resist.

I understand. I'll try to do better on my part for those times, and I know your username obviously isn't anti-Q, but I do want to avoid mistakes, and I do want these faggots gone asap.

I'm guilty of responding sarcastically I admit. I will try harder but my blood boils when you get these wet behind the ear children who are anti Q and nasty and do need a firm slapping. Just saying :)

One of the biggest problems in ALL these forums (and I've been in all of them at one point or another since 2015) is that we, as humans, are wired to be drawn to the scandalous (novel stimuli.) That can be great as far as alerting us to dangers in our environment, but it can be detrimental in the sense that we tend to ignore what we perceive as boring. This matters because the Globalists did not achieve their success by blatant bombshell maneuvers - They achieved their success through subtle and gradual implementations.

If we're going to raise the bar with posts we need to raise the bar in discerning what information is valuable as opposed to what information we find novelly stimulating. Anyone who researches knows it is terribly time-consuming - not only the research itself but assimilating it into an understandable written form. There are some very good researchers here - I know one who can educate on vaccines and one who knows the Vatican/monetary global system as well or better than any of the pundits out there. Thing is, they could write the best stuff ever, and here's what happens: They get several "tl;dr" responses and very few upvotes compared to a linked post that garners tons of up-votes. How long would you continue to invest your time for something that gets virtually ignored?

Basically, all the forums have become aggregates of links from various sources. That's great in that we can come here and get a very good, up-to-the-minute overview of what's happening, but it doesn't encourage original research. I'd like to see a flair or even a sticky for original research posts that sets them apart and gives them more visibility.

Just my thoughts. Thank you.

The problem with the people being lazy with information will never really be solved. The content of any forum will devolve to the lowest common denominator, which is usually memes and links to people who know how to write but may not know what they're talking about.

You can have all the knowledge in the world, but if you can't explain it to someone in a way that they find engaging, you're spinning your wheels.

The answer is to find people that appreciate your work that can put tidbits of it into meme format or that can rewrite it in a way that users will enjoy the experience of reading an absorbing the information.

Your comment also gave me the idea for flairs. Possibly a really, really good one.

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt

You've kind of described the dumbing-down of the public - Not everything can be explained in a meme or a tweet.

[–] • 1 pt

Also, the ability of memes to spread and inform shouldn't be underestimated. Not everyone has a 130+ IQ. But it's also not about that. Small, digestible tidbits of information can stick in someone's mind far easier than a long treatise on the subject.

Also, writing to an audience with a short attention span does not necessarily equate to the dumbing-down of the people.

[–] • 0 pt

I also mentioned writing it in a way that is palatable.

I didn't limit my comment to memes and tweets.

I'd wager I could rewrite just about any post on here to be more easily and willingly read than in its current form.

@Crensch You might say a few words about how wide you would like the scope of this sub to be. I've enjoyed some stock-related comments here, but is is questionable how appropriate those , 2nd Amendment posts and other political posts are. One the other hand, I think X22 & Monkeywerks as well within the scope. Could you please delineate what you think is appropriate? Cheers

Also, please mod gently and politely, giving reasons for removal and banning, at least when people aren't simply spamming/insulting.

[–] • 5 pts

Given that the economy is linked heavily to Trump, hedge funds linked to politics/gov, and the unrest of the people, stock stuff is probably mostly okay.

X22 + MW are also very on target, IMO.

When it's not some nigger invader that hates us, I usually let the user know before doing mod things, and have a decent description when I do mod things.

[–] • 0 pt

Thanks. Much as I appreciate this sub, earlier today, I put a couple items (inc 2nd A) elsewhere, as I was unsure of the focus.

It has become a lot better than it was my first week or so here leading into New Years. That was a rough transition after years of comfy VOAT/v/GreatAwakening. Reminded me of the Q shills on VOAT/v/QRV or the shills that came and went in waves on VOAT/v/GreatAwakening. I still get an occasional Q shill or naysayer on my posts or comments here, but nothing like it was ... for the time being anyway. Their comments usually aren't worth a response. They haven't hindered my enthusiasm.

[–] • 4 pts

I agree. Was a lot of BS early on.

And I tried to be hands off for the inauguration fallout.

Time to get back in the saddle.

[–] • 3 pts

My sentiments echo those of Lurker17 ,bopper, and other stalwarts that came over from Voat. I didn't want to stand down before, but most of the shill/troll seems to be drying up- slowly but surely. I was trying to defend our territory and to get people that were on the fence to remain faithful to the cause, after the fake inauguration. So many folks failed to see the big picture of what's going on, and succumbed to despair and frustration. I found myself getting angry at the fair-weather Patriots, for giving up so easily. We have to stay the course and keep doing our part. I look forward to sticking to business and not being distracted by the shills and trolls, so much. Since the migration, it's kind of been like the wild west here. Thanks, @Crensch for bringing in some oversight! WWG1WGA!

I think after the 20th came and went, many decided to take a break, regroup, recharge the batteries, and remember why we're fighting everyday day to unchain the grip of the DS/Cabal.

I took a couple weeks off to catch back up on work, as I own my own business, and it was starting to suffer because I was spending a lot of time trying to Red Pill the Zombies.

There's lots of good info coming out on a daily basis, and when I'm caught up at work, I'll be contributing much more hear on Poal.

After Voat shut down on Christmas Day, I think with the fraudulent election, holidays and trying to learn Poal... A lot of folks just needed a break.

But we'll be back, rested up and kicking ass in no time! :)

[–] [deleted] • 3 pts

I don't think anything can hinder your enthusiasm, Lurker17 - Your hard work is a major part of this sub.

[–] • 0 pt

I'm just another anon, with a bad news-junkie habit. Lol! It's a great fit for me here.

Thanks for the vote of support! The Plan is indeed working, the bad actors act like a bunch of really pissed off hornets at the moment! Not a WINNING look for them! Lol!

Never thought I'd say this to someone - but thank God for your addiction :-)

This place wouldn't be the same with without you, @Rickki6 and @LakotaPride

You all are prolific posters.

Thank you.

Your efforts here are appreciated & I support them 100%.

So you are recommending censorship with any who disagree with your ideology? How Democrat National Communist of you. We need intelligent opposition here to defend (((all))) views. Even if the narrow minded from (((both))) sides of the debate make noise. Censorship is what the control freaks require to silence opposition. So are you for control freaks who abuse moderation powers? Serious question that requires reasoned logic to continue.

[–] [deleted] • 4 pts

It has nothing to do with free speech and everything to do with off-topic posts. Would you go to an antique car sub and talk about your baby doll collection? No. Same thing.

This sub is pro-Trump, pro-Patriot and pro-Q research - If you disagree with that ideology, then you need to find a sub suited to your beliefs.

[–] • 2 pts

This is not a free speech sub. The sub has a very specific purpose, and your opinion on that purpose or what we do with our sub is absolutely irrelevant.

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt

I don't know that this is so much not a free speech sub as it is an "on topic" sub - as every sub should be. Free speech does not mean "no consequences" speech. We have the right to tell the flight attendant there's a bomb in our carry-on, but that right doesn't mean we're free from the consequences of our words. Similarly, shills/trolls have the right to say what they want, but if that's outside of the parameters of the sub, there are consequences for that, i.e. being asked to leave.

Too many subs have been destroyed by infiltration under the guise of "free speech."

[–] • 1 pt

You're absolutely right. The reason I say it the way I do is because they are not here for any kind of discussion. If I shut them down and tell them that this is not a free speech sub, they can go spread the word.

It's too tiresome to get into the finer details of what's really going on here, and none of them save maybe one in the past couple of years has taken the time to understand what's going on. Just not worth the time. I'd rather them think we're awful people that hate freedom because I really don't care what they think.

Also, more of that pick your battles because you don't have infinite resources kind of thing
