Remember the days we used to tell people to take their crack pot conspiracies to conspiracies.win? Remember when the mods viciously combed the site for shills? Remember when we lived by "no outside comms"? Remember when I didn't have to listen to your personal sob story, or see a selfie of you and your wife/kids like this was Facebook? Remember when this site was about speculation, discussion and working together to uncover the truth? Remember when validation had nothing to do with it?
This is slowly becoming an echo chamber with no standards. Mods say they want to keep people engaged. I say they're doing the opposite.
Well, what do you think?
Edit: I've said it from Day 1. We need a fully vetted "handbook" for new anons. Between misinfo, misunderstanding and a lack of resources, I feel much of the problem is created by not having ONE easy to access, easy to digest piece of material that new Anons can utilize.
Exactly. Leave none to personally benefit. Do it all for the new anon. But also vet for info from grifters, shills etc. I'm being a bit silly in thinking this can just be conjured up, because to do it right would take a tremendous amount of work. But for the type who like to research, they could really sink their teeth into it without having to worry about if the information is kosher or not.
Someone would need to hold the git admin privileges though. But outside of that, I think this is doable. I can try and get the ball rolling. I will do some work to create a framework, and see if it sticks
Bludgeon the mods into helping you. The stuff on the side bar is nice but we almost need to perma-sticky this if it's ever created. I am completely useless to your endeavor, but I commend you for stepping up and wanting to take action. An admirable quality indeed.
Well, thank you. I will try my best
