Something very odd has happened over at p.win. There is very little talk about Trump, it’s basically a news aggregator now. I feel as if the site has been taken over by bad actors. If it can happen there, it can happen here. I know I am a handshake account, but my last account had a Pepe and I’ve been around since the T_D days. I came to GA in 2020 after the election was stolen and I was just in shock at what I saw. Be vigilant patriots!
Edit: after reviewing all comments, including mod input, I am not alone. Something has happened to patriots.win. My takeaway is that we need to really work as a team to help the mods manage this place by deporting all suspected shills, trolls, and bots. Let’s go patriots! THIS TRAIN HAS NO BRAKES!!!!!! NCSWISC!!!!!!!!
I once banned myself. I wasn't looking, I saw some rude and snarky BS from this user so I sent them a "friendly vacation - pls go outside" and then my account stopped being able to post. I took the L and actually went outside for the day and I realized that I was right, I was off my rocker and needed the break, sigh
Yes, you’ve given me some fresh air breaks in the past. This has been a stressful and tumultuous movie lol.
Yeah, hindsight really shows what a spiritual war this has been for all of us. It's totally affected me too, but we look back on it and this warfare hasn't been enjoyable but the results are starting to come in I think
Absolutely...And it does take its toll...( on a side note I've also had my share of 'cooldowns' from you...😉😆)
"They" will never win here as long as we pay attention....👍
haha, and I remember, you went outside, then came back, hung up your coat and hat, and got to work.
I had an old account that was banned for "promoting rabbit supremacy 🐇". I'm too scared to say why because I don't want to get banned again!
Your current account's usernotes are interesting, but you're doing great at living within the sidebar and taking scalps. Well done, frog. 🐸🐸
Oooh, we have user notes?!
News to me too.
"Modnotes," basically, yeah. Like, if someone leaves a racist comment and we remove it, we might record its URL in the mod notes and add, "Watch for racism/division" so other mods know. Pretty much no action gets taken by one of the mods here without checking the mod notes. This generally increases mod accuracy and ensures that mod decisions can be defended when (inevitably) we get the "you modses and your Reddit overlordsez!" modmails in reply. :D
Also, sometimes when we see high-effort comments, I'll tag someone's username with a different colour. I use green to highlight our special, hardest-working frogs so that I can stop and enjoy their comments (or sticky their posts). We have a lot of green accounts on our WIN (and here in this thread), actually, lots of heavy lifters. It's wonderful, absolutely majestic to see, herds of frogs spreading across our enemy's narratives, laying waste to entire weeks worth of very, very expensive PR. LOL
Catsfive , you’re the lead mod now? Long live the king 👑!
Always was. But the researchers and decoders are the ones that deserve crowns. You guys are da MVPs, and you're all the main reason that WE ARE THE NEWS.
That's pretty funny. You banned yourself.
You have to be a little bit twitchy to lead this WIN, but, that's the main job requirement to be lead mod around here. The other mods know I'll back them, and, since I hired smarter mods than me, I know GAW will benefit from them making good calls. I feel very lucky to have "snared" (or "lured" or "downright lied to and now they're trapped") the other mods on the team. These are some scary big brains, very capable people, and we're incredibly lucky to have them.
Amen.
Lol
KeK! Nice
