Hi there.

A short introduction: This is an alt account. I’m a moderator here who has been unhappy with the state of news/political discussions here for a long time. The admins have kindly given me the opportunity to see if we can make some improvement the community here.

We will be doing some major revision of the rules left by the previous moderators and will use discussions in this thread as feedback on the direction we should take our community.

This will be an open discussion on the state of our community, the rules and our moderation practices. Feel free to give your inputs.

My goal is to foster thoughtful discussion in our community, and not let this place be a replica of r/politics.

First order of business, immediate rule change.

On [email protected], effectively immediately, we will no longer restrict political discussion to the politics of the United States of America. Discussion regarding of the state of politics from around the world is now welcome.

I will leave this pinned for 1-2 weeks for our team to take feedback and make our proposals then.

    To be sure, you have 2.270 comments, what comments you mean? and the comments can just be from blocked users, or from a language you dont have. or i still dont understand from who it comes those comments. And every action is logged in the modlogs.

    This is not the original but okay. Have a great day.

        That was not the original words he used, it was much more in the tone of your first message, so it’s been changed. Meaning, someone changed it to make it sound better. I didn’t know I needed to take screenshots, but then again, I don’t. I’m just not going to be hanging around here anymore.

        One last question before I go. Again, what are your plans for curating in the future?

          We don’t curate - it’s up to the mods to make sure reports are handled timely and the site rules are enforced. Only when that doesn’t happen we step in.

          Anyway you’re not arguing in good faith here. You’re already mod on sh.itjust.works and you came here looking for confirmation to your bias nothing else. Good luck!

            Says the guy that posted to a comment that was modified. I hate being a mod, it was great here until you ruined it. I like how you dodged the question twice now about whether or not you’re going to curate in the future, not currently.

              What are you on about? You said you were being lied to and that one of the admins was agressive towards you so I looked… You think I knew what words were used before? I know Rookie and I know him as someone who will go out of his way to help people.

              it was great here until you ruined it

              I’ve been here since the very beginning

                I have no idea who changed it, but I know it was. I know how this is going to play out and you guys have proven yourself to me that I should at the very least, not trust you. It’s not a huge deal, you just lost me and no one is probably reading this far. I know what happened and you guys trying to belittle it or make it sound like I’m trying to do something, I have no idea what, makes me know you guys are exactly like reddit admins/mods. I’m done with that. Bye.

              How would you envision us curating? We as admins have a simple goal: make sure the site rules are followed, and help if a mod requests it. If with curating you mean that we delete stuff that doesn’t follow the rules, then yes we curate, if you mean that we only allow stuff we like, than no we have never and will never do that.

        What are you guys, 13 and in middle school? Seriously, I guess Reddit had better quality trolls because they had a wider access. Why are you guys still communicating with me, lol? Move on, it’s over.
