Poalrs, we need to do more to get engagement up on Poal. Using Poa's birthday announcements as a metric, Poal's engagement peaked in 2022. Don't let Poal stagnate. Post, make OC, engage in discussion and upvote the good stuff. We need to do more Poalrs!

We need good users who aren't kikes, niggers or faggots. That's a big ask, but we can't survive with diversity that doesn't fit into our way of thinking. But we do need new, good pure blood.

Agreed. Let them come in, show us who they are... then we can eject em. It's a higher turnover rate. Hopefully we'll get some gems as far as users go but it's not like faggots are here forever... They can be deported

Quality over quantity.

It’s their own fault if these “new” sleeper accounts aren’t able to pass a proper introduction. It’s like an IQ test.

Unless a similar site shuts down, that will be unlikely. Now that views such as ours can be expressed on mainstream sites like X and TheDonald there isn't quite the need to find a place like Poal.

If I was a marketer for Poal I'd have to ask, if you are happy on X, Gab, TheDonald, what niche would Poal fill for you. How would I draw you here and away from those other platforms? How would GenZ find a place like this when they are addicted to TikTok?

I'm curious how many users here followed the same path as myself. Reddit>Voat>Poal. This was a journey of necessity. Other than 4chan (really a different animal) where else could I find like minded people and post without being banned? Now users have more options.

Local forums. State forums. Community forums. I'm in Louisiana chats that make poal look tame in comparison and it has liberaltards and cuntservatives along with "alt right" they always argue and making memes

So you're telling me you want me to post a lot more Q stuff? That always triggers engagement. Lol!

Do what you must. The rest of us will do what we must as well. Where those two paths collide is yet to be determined but I do know it will get messy.

The amount of interesting and unique content is on a sharp decline. I post things that I find interesting that I don’t think most people would have found before me, but there isn’t much interesting being reported by mainstream news, so most of the time I don’t link because it’s boring as hell and probably completely false anyway.

It’s an election year, so you’d think the shills would be ramping up, but there just isn’t anything that they post worth reading, or they aren’t out in the numbers as elections past. It seems that 90% or more of users are feds, or foreign intelligence assets, and I’m not interested in their fear porn and propaganda.

Couple this with the fact that most people have the intellect of a potato, and those that are bright are dying like flies or otherwise stymied by baffling medical problems, and we are reaching a point of no interest, no new content, and no interesting dialog: the apathy singularity.

This is a microcosm of society, and I find I have little to say to real people lately. They are brainwashed, anxious, fully occupied with the new latest thing and so few are worth talking to that it’s more annoying than fun to meet new people.

Good day other /s/Colorado poster ;) Yes, I'm trying to do the same as well as posting in other subs or comments on things that are either interesting or frustrating/annoying enough that I feel like it is worth a response. I started with mostly just /s/Colorado but now post to quite a few other subs.

I just need to get my website(s) back online and start posting some more OC and not just news or what other people are doing.

Who knows. Maybe we are just seeing "dead internet theory" in action. No more real content. The majority is clickbait bot bullshit (now mostly AI bullshit) that no one actually cares about and the bots are clicking on bot links where other bots are creating content from other bots.

Garbage in, Garbage out.

That is why I mentioned in another thread that maybe ill make an effort to post more to /s/DIY. I made a somewhat large but simple post on how to replace a outlet without zapping the shit out of yourself. It was posted as a comment, maybe ill re-post it as it's own post since some people might be interested in it.

I would enjoy reading about that type of thing. I am interested in how things work, how the average home-handyman can fix these items and how they are made. I am an amateur metalsmith and enjoy watching master smiths make art or useful objects. I can do rudimentary woodworking projects, if I had the time I’d like to build my own furniture and kitchen cabinets.

That's cool. Ive always wanted to try having a home forge to do some smithing. Though, I also want to learn to weld and have not spent the time yet. If you can do basic woodworking/construction/welding and some electronics stuff I feel like you can basically do anything.

I'm no web statistician but isn't engagement measured on numbers of comments (or quality of comments) on posts? Counting uptoots on a birthday post is not a fair proxy for site engagement IMHO.

I'm using "engagement" here as general interaction with Poal content and discussion. I'm not concerned about the (((advertiser))) definition used on website metrics.

So you think the interaction with content and discussion is on a downtrend? My sense is that it is stable or expanding. But perhaps that is just my expectations lowering to meet reality :)

I wonder what is the average # posts / day and # comments / day, and whether those metrics are increasing, stable, or decreasing over the past many years.

Poal used to be able to fill my day with enough content. It doesn't do that any longer. Content post quantity has steadily declined after 2022. After 10 PM eastern time Poal goes to sleep. It's dead for hours. It didn't use to be that bad. So yeah, definitely on a downtrend.

Well there's where you went wrong. Unless you're asking AOC for a shot or tequila or a blowjob, the former bartender big-tittied goblin moron who now is in the (((gubmint))) will surely not get you anything you want.

Yes, this is what we have to do but it is difficult. Everyone I know who can handle Poal is here already. Sadly I'm not meeting any new people who aren't brainwashed by jews. I'm working on them, but the programming is strong and they just aren't smart enough to reason with any further than I have already tried. I'm sure other Poalrs have similar struggles.

This is why I think Telegram would be a good place to advertise.

Or just say 'fuck it' and drop flyers from the plane with nothing but Poal logo and address. Imagine the chaos.

Funny enough, the first time I ever looked into infowars.com was because I saw it on a t shirt in a grocery store lol. Black shirt, white lettering and only on the back.

I sent a few suggestions to @aou some time ago that included T-shirt designs. Some of those designs have the site address.

I mention Poal to all my friends and I'm some online circles. Problem is that most are not able to think outside the box. Critical thinking is non-existent in the best majority. Everyone sees something is wrong but when you attempt to point out even simple logic they shut down and mentally reset.

I've been trying to get a batch of Poal themed t-shirts done here (cheaper than in the U.S), and get them shipped to someone trustworthy who can handle the local shipping, but I've been pretty busy for the past and now coming months. My best bet would be around November/December. PoalSanta?

Make that 4. When I saw that post yesterday I thought it was going to be the Animals version so I didn't bother with it. Maybe work on your title game.

Why did you mark that NSFW?
