You spoke, we listened! Everyone, please welcome High-Valerian and God_Bless_America1 to the mod team! You old Voat Goats might remember High-Valerian as a mod from /v/GreatAwakening. Welcome!
We now have three mods from Reddit's /r/GreatAwakening. WE ARE PRIMED AND READY TO GO!
Old Goat here...I do remember High-Valerian. Welcome back into another mod job!
I wasn’t on Reddit and don’t know him, but I welcome him too with the following advice:
Please don’t be a power-tripping mod who engages in friendly fire! Focus on the obvious shills.
Please don’t incessantly make repetitive posts about ban hammering and requests to comply with the sidebar, while disobeying it yourself all the time, such as with repetitive self-stickied posts and other low info / low energy posts.
Please don’t violate the sidebar rule about giving warnings first before you give a 3 day ban to a member who was here since the beginning of this site, simply because they made a sarcastic comment about your low energy/low info meme (that was self-stickied by the posting mod)
Please don’t continually send conflicting messages by sending repetitive warnings about only high info/high energy Q-Research posts being allowed, but then stickying joke images that 3/4 of the site couldn’t discern if it was real or a joke.
Please keep a close eye on your fellow mods. Some are new to this, some are in trial mode and may not fit the bill. Please coach them and keep them in line and remind them we are all allies and being a mod isn’t about self-aggrandizement.
This comment of mine went "missing" yesterday. The madness has to stop. Tell me I'm wrong?
""I wanna see those bundles by the book. 3ft long 2 ft diameter.
Imperfect bundles will be banned. Loose sticks and undersized bundles will be banned. Lazily tied bundles will be banned. Do your duty, report all imperfect bundles.
Arg. Why is my inbox so full of deport requests????
Maybe instead of making us normie friendly, we should instead accept that imperfect faggots are the backbone of everything thats been accomplished.
Maybe help normalize eccentric people doing extraordinary things.
Why should we change, if they're the ones who suck? """
I wonder how much doesn't get said that needs saying because the banhammer hangs like a sword of damocles? There's an old saying about dancing with who brought you. Normie appeal is not so important as to sacrifice all else to achieve. Q said trust yourself. Show me the drop where Q said trust the mods blindly and I'll hush. My gut says this banhammer tactic is destructive to the free flow of information, and drives off some of those personalities most needed in this time and space.
Thank you guys for stepping up and being mods. Alot of influx of traffic so the new mods are most welcome. Keep up the great work. WWG1WGA
Welcome! Lets keep this community of top caliber! Not a time for nonsense.
I thought we were losing? Why hire more people? /s
NO BRAKES
Still not tired of Winning!
Good to see some old names!
WOOHOOO!!! welcome guys, ima goat as well. and sought refuge here.
I remember seeking fefuge on voat lol
Getting through screening at the border was.....memorable.
Thanks for stepping in guys. I have feeling we are going to need you around here.
More mods. Good. Excellent. Excellent.
Welcome!
I can categorically say that is not happening
Might one ask why?
Honest question. Q openly advocated support to create /QRV on Voat while /Greatawakening already existed. Why would Q not support /Greatawakening? What are we missing here?
Don't really know, but QRV became a shotstorm while GreatAwakening morphed into a Shill-free, solid information distribution site, thanks to mods like Crensch and Moloch Hunter
I looked at both every day and both had plenty of shills. Using logic though, shills attack what they fear most. Why were they attacking QRV more than Greatawakening?
Was Greatawakening compromised and didn't need as many shills? QRV was also anonymous and people couldn't be banned.
I think it was to spread. It was beginning to be an echo chamber. Mostly bad posts with a lot of shills. Nothing crazy but definitely seems like a good idea in hindsight.
Each to his own I guess.
I used to frequent both, but just found GA essentially friendlier, high quality (in my view) and less draining on the investment. That said, I never relied to heavily on Voat for info that much, although in the months leading up to Nov 3, GA became my first port of call.
I know there is advantages to there being both (anonymous and semi-anonymous posting) and I'm not saying the real anon quality didn;'t come thru QRV, but in my view, it was a little too close to the chans (kun) for what I was after.
I think, as time went on, GA eventually had more traffic PLUS more concentration of quality posts than QRV, but maybe that's just my bias...
I think the way the mods there handled it was masterful, and I am strongly supportive of that approach, particularly IF there are alternatives for those that want the chaos etc of QRV.
I don't think it's a binary equation. Variety is advantageous. However, I personally appreciate the approach taken on GA.
Because they COULD. And when the tone of the place dives, you have to know that it drives certain sectors of participants away. Some love it, but others move on because it just doesn't leave any real space for them.
Notice Cats5 & mods outline for GAW. How many will really hold to that, take it seriously? Lots I hope. But building a forum means creating a community and culture that serves and upholds the objective of that forum. That takes work, effort, imo.
You said it better than I could . Though the mods on QRV and GA too two different actions. (before coffee)
Because Q only pointed to one.
They weren't attacking QRV more than GA. The mods at GA worked their butts off to weed out the shills and trolls by eventually requiring that new posters request to be added to keep the site manageable and they did. QRV on the other hand, kept the free speech principle and was not using user names in their subverse - making it more difficult for trouble makers to target individual posters/accounts for coordinated waves of crap from other subverses that were non Q.
I used both.
Was GA compromised? No. It was targeted more easily by Non Q subverses because it was semi anonymous vs QRV's totally anonymous posting/thread style.
Poor judgement on behalf of the other mods.
I miss voat. Especially now that censorship is at its highest ever.
Make my way in for the first time this morning, this sticky is at trip sevens.
Gonna be a good day.
Glad you are here. I am a very old Voat follower and know you will be an asset
There's a sidebar, remember? The accounts will stack to the absolute SKY if the sidebar isn't observed.
Probably. Mods DGAF. Observe the sidebar. Or stack another log on the fire. Up to you.
Welcome Home!
I read this at at 777 upvoat. God has give us 2 great, new Mods. Welcome.
Are you kidding me? You added mods from SBBH, a Leftist proxy group? Q specifically warned you against /v/GreatAwakening and you ignore his warnings? Have you seriously never read about pedophile Crensch?
Do I really need to spend all my time here warning people against /r/SoapBoxBanHammer like we did on Voat?
Aw, come the f' on. You really trying to flame up the 4-5 year old axe you have to grind about Crensch? Crench and the other GA mods did their all to keep the barn door closed to SBBH so I don't want to hear about it. Keep the Voat crap out of here because even at the "end of days" for Voat... it was so tiresome, boring, and hyperventilated about for so long that literally 4/5ths of the entire site didn't care about SBBH grievance mongering any more... while GA became the best aggregator for incoming news and Q events on that platform.
Nah I'm with the other guy. If there's ANY hint of a reason not to make someone a mod then they shouldn't be a mod. Once a snake always a snake!
/v/GreatAwakening was Srayzie who was a SBBH shill. SBBH spent all their time shilling against God, Pizzagate and Q. SBBH Srayzie started taking heat, pretended she was "doxxed" and made atheist Crensch (who's a gd REDDITOR) her replacement after SBBH had already handed him /v/Pizzagate. You really think a Leftist proxy group put in power by the Muslim site admin Atif Colo would just cede power? You really think a nasty militant atheist like Crensch was put in charge of an investigation of Satanism like Pizzagate because he believes? Crensch got his start as kevdude's right hand man, the same kevdude who joined SBBH and used ProtectVoat as a weapon to agitate against subs SBBH was trying to take over. And now that Voat's down, the same proxy group (which were here on day one) are trying to erase history and destroy this place like they tried to do with /v/QRV. "But GA was better!" is proof of what Q warned you; of course there was less spam, why would shills ruin their own board?
Ah, so it's a female, that explains how she keesp getting away with this shit, stupid soy boys cucking for a girl, typical zero masculinity behavior of the people that keep putting her in charge.
