So, if you haven't heard of the term "forum sliding" before, it refers to making posts, whether factual or not, that are not related to the content that is discussed in the board. In most cases in other places on the net, it does have intent, and that intent is to push a narrative that's either completely false or against the grain of the purpose of discussion. I think in honesty, for what I have been witnessing happening here on GAW, that's not exactly the whole story, so what I am describing is not out of criticism, but of concern.
To those who are innocent of this, they may not realize they are doing it. There has been a LOT of this happening for a while now. Whether it's karma farming (the act of gaining popularity and reputation on a board, with really no substantial value) pure self promotion (which is actually a rule here that's not being followed sometimes, with some being either actual feds, employees or promoters of an external website), or it's because this is the only or one of the few boards that posters frequent, it serves as a deterrent, a distraction, and it really weakens the overall motive of this board; to gain better understanding about the references that Q made, and to help all anons, no matter their level of knowledge, to congregate, share ideas, dig deeper, and sometimes have a little fun, which I'm not against at all. It also creates unnecessary tension (as I am guilty of), and we should focus on getting as many anons awakened as possible, and not losing them to such antics.
I know I can't call myself a mod, but to veterans and newcomers alike, it's cluttering up the board, and some very good posts get drowned out or get basically no visibility, unless you diligently filter by "rising" or "new". The mods can only do so much, so I think we should really focus on tuning out the noise and post those types of content on their designated boards within the .win community. I've made the comment many times about switching to a vBulletin style board, which would make this issue much easier to manage, and I would be willing to help, but I know that will take quite a bit of effort.
But in the meantime, and I'm saying this humbly; please consider what you post. Check the catalog to avoid duplicates, use the correct flairs when available, research the source of your posts to make sure it's verifiable and relevant, and if you see a post that's high quality and deserves to be stickied, let the mods know! But most of all, let's try not to post things that are reposts we see on social media sites that don't relate much to Q or GAW, or do not have a reliable source. I would say that's where the filtering would have the biggest impact.
Thank you all for being here, and for all the deep research and discussion that is had here. Many forums like these have fell away, and it all started by sliding posts, sinister mods, or outright trolling and shadow banning. Just want to keep the spirit alive here and tweak things just a bit so that we can all get good, reliable info. We are doing damn good for what opposition we face, I just hope that we stay together and don't lose the momentum.
Sincerely,
An oldfag from the early 2000s
I live in new. I check hot just to see if something big has happened and then i go to new and refresh probably 1x per 1 to 1.5 hours
Same. I've found the best digs in New and Rising. I've just seen a lot of twitter/x opinion posting that you can obviously tell is some posters doing it out of the sake of attention. And it gets an unproportional amount of votes and it's doing a disservice to many. I guess Ive just got ill about it enough times, but I also want others to understand I don't outright hate anyone or want to seem like I'm blindly judging, I just know the lines get blurred sometimes between who has a motive to do such and who doesn't.
I've noticed this as well. The same posters have a history of sharing larpy stuff too, often times via the Twitter re-post. E.g. anon shares Dom Lucre tweet of Ingersoll Larpwood or something along those lines. Just an example of the Twitter post middle man usage.
A pattern has been growing though, you're not the only anon to notice it.
We need to have every "link post" scanned for duplicates when it's posted. Then the poster is given a message "This link has already been posted" with links to earlier posts with the same url (Do you still want to post?). We also need to encourage/enforce (OC) and (RP). This would help elevate the right content. When I see (OC) it makes me want to share the content more, knowing it originally came from this board. We will never regain the energy of 2016 without streamlining the curation of content on this board. IMHO oldfag, we have become quite sloppy.

Can I default to New?
I just made NEW ( https://greatawakening.win/new )my new homepage on the browser I use here.
Thank you for a very good post dealing with a topic that should concern ALL board members of anything more than newbie status.
More than anything, I would characterize your post as being about GAW community culture.
Of particular note is the "I know I can't call myself a mod, but .... " point. My fundamental philosophy towards community boards (such as GAW) is that the community should always consider themselves the real owners, and the mods as a sort of government role: to uphold the integrity of the board, regulate the community and keep things running on track, but ON BEHALF of the community.
Mods are here as servants, but its incumbent on all board participants to have the mentality of good owners and not just expect the mods/servants to do all the work.
Like any nation build on democratic representative principles, the culture here only really works and/or works best when the people consider themselves at least as invested and as responsible as the mods. Participants should feel a sense of responsibility to think and act like mods, in terms of making the vibe and well-being of the forum their personal priority, even if they do not have the mod position or role.
To clarify, I do not mean participants should act like mods who occasionally have to mete out punishments, bans, and such aka administrative work, but rather in terms of caring for the forum as a whole, participants should have the civic sense and public mindedness that good mods embody.
To me, this post embodies that spirit perfectly.
So far the post has not gotten a sticky, but I think its worthy. I would suggest to the mod team that they should always have at least a 10% sticky rate for posts that highlight Forum culture, community attitude, and best practices, etc. As these are the underpinnings of the value of the forum. I know the mods cannot always get to it, and they do an amazing job already, so this is just a suggestion in case it makes sense and is useful.

Ahem.
--PS
Right? Good luck with that. (Chuckle).
Good post as always.
Do we need a list of known bullshit sources? Pretty much all mutations of RealRawNews...maybe list known twitter accounts that are not to be trusted.
Using common sense and 30 seconds in a search engine to verify is apparently too difficult for some people.
But this is for the noobs. The usual suspects with several year old accounts that still do this have absolutely no excuse. Sorry but they can fuck off with that upvote farming bullshit and get their dopamine fix from somewhere else in life.
I get tired of seeing some of the click bait websites with debatable sources. I don't like the leftist MSM, but sometimes they are the only source for a good story, and most of us have the ability to filter out their bias and spin, and get to the facts.
Wow great stuff right here fren. I might need your help in future, writing the framework for Prayer Garden. It's basically what you just said but scaled out to .win as a whole. + A little other things.
You have my number. Metaphorically speaking.
Thanks brother. :)
A place for everyone and everyone in their place 😜😀
There has been a bit of bias against me here for a long time, but in the event that I'm wrong and I'm hoping that I am, it would be nice for a sticky, or at least a mod post that addresses the concerns. Thank you for the response, I think me and you have agreed on a lot before here, especially when it comes to weeding out posts that are obviously sliding.
Only reason I ever had anything against you was because you went off on me for calling out a liberal in a grocery store. Then you went on to say that us military members aren’t needed and we’re just useless sheepdogs that bark and do nothing. How you’re training is just as good and we’re not really needed. How we’re just “larping retards”.
That’s not “bias” against you. That’s you opening your mouth about something you probably shouldn’t have and then crying victim afterwards when the outcome didn’t go as you expected.
You apologized profusely in DMs, we made peace on this. You're an idiot for engaging in low level banter with someone you don't even know while rather just ignoring it, because it's absolutely unnecessary to post on here about that, unless it's out of the sake of posture. Sorry the honesty of my opinion hurts, and the feeble attempt at gaslighting is a bit childish. I described exactly your actions as being one of the reasons the perceptions of anons from the public is what it is.
You are outing yourself. Post where I said anything about military not needed, because they are absolutely needed. You won't. That's fake news at it's prime. Why would I even be here and agree multiple times about the premise of not for mil, DOD or SOCOM, though they are so starkly different, the respect is still the same, we would not have a chance in hell against the DS? You're making shit up, and proving the point of my reply. It's vets who ever since Vietnam, are being bastardized to the point of suicide and it's a horrifying epidemic.
(Also, what is my training, what even is that, lol, try harder plz)
This brief interaction with another Anon here, is so cringe - and takes the wind out of your sails - for the entire post. 😞 Which by the way was/is a great OP - but after seeing how you interact with others, it makes me question how genuine it is at all. The sad part is that you just don’t see it. PRIDE 😬
God bless and have a great day.
Hes the only person who actively pursued my posts and gaslit me ever since I posted on one single thread he made about calling out a "liberal" in a grocery store. I was being honest when I said what he is doing is not helping anyone. He also took a hiatus and before he did, apologized for stalking my comments after the fact. Things were okay, until he completely made up what he just said in his post above. Are you expecting im not going to tell the truth in the face of being messed with?
I don't come from a time where I took things on the Internet as personally offensive. Don't intend to now. It's words on a screen, and if someone's going to get butthurt over things that badly, that's a psychological issue. But if you want to call it pride for me standing up for myself, that's your misinterpretation. What's the problem when others want to do it? It gets hundreds of votes here, doesn't it.. just my thoughts, no offense personally, but your peer review isn't going to really make me to into some sort of self reflection over it.
I see you haven’t changed a wink, and I don’t have to post anything. Anyone who wants to see it bad enough can go look through your comments. Apologized profusely? Yeah okay dude 🤣 Good luck on your journey.
And I encourage them to. Thank you for your wishes. Though I can tell it may be out of spite but I'll still respect that it may not be.
You got your deserved sticky, maybe if there was less manipulation, some of the genuinely good posts would make their way to the sticky page. It could be based on upticks or a button could be added requesting a sticky, the more real votes adding weight, currently you have to deport the post I think?
The method that was suggested by a mod a while back was to use the deport button, select “Other” and enter “Recommended for sticky” as the reason, as it escalates the suggestion to the full mod team.
I've done that a couple of times for flairs; it works, good system.
Kek, thank you Expert. Yep, that's standard practice for me now. At the time of commenting, the post had not been stickied, so yeah, sure, i deported and stated "Sticky Request + (my reason why I think it stick-worthy)".
In many instances, the mod team responds positively to my sticky requests. When they don't, I feel confident they have good reasons.
Since, like you say, the good posts are often hidden in new or rising...
I think the onus is actually on the UPDOOTERS, more than the posters.
For example, the link to the alternative history fandom site talking about the 'big boy' bomb being dropped on China...
Anyone is capable of posting some dumb shit that looks legit, or doesn't conform to everybody's idea of what is relevant on this board.
I think a bigger problem is when a god-awful post like that manages to reach 'Hot'...
and I think there are two main culprits:
enthusiastic dooters who just don't read carefully, and
people who intentionally abuse the 'hide liked' feature, and updoot whatever they don't want to see anymore.
special shame to that latter category.
if someone posts garbage and it never leaves 'new'... does it even really matter? i mean sure, it does. but the vast amount of visitors here just check 'hot'. so it is super extra incredibly embarrassing when such garbage makes it to the front page of the board.
CHECK YOUR DOOTS, FRENS
I'm still shaking my head at the 'we nuked China' posts/comments.
And intersting point about people mindlessly upvoting just to hide a post. Does this really happen that often?
Yep, it's coordinated. If we got a registry of all accounts on here, I can almost guarantee you'll find that there are way more lurker/influence accounts than one would expect. All they do is use the voting system to exploit content and to up/down rank comments. It's the same thing that happens on Reddit, which is why A vBulletin style board is much more preferred, because only comments are ranked rather than posts in most cases. A good example; have the slightest opinion that is concerned about "Bitcoin"... not all crypto, just BTC, and watch the fire rise rapidly against you.
I also suspect some of the fake posts receiving lots of upvotes is a coordinated thing. Its way more than normal. Right now there is yet another highly upvoted bullshit post in "hot" (the Kamala calling for t-shirt kid to be banned post...completely fake).
We are in an information war. Disinfo is an old trick used to poison the well and drive curios normies away. With the elections coming you would be an idiot not to realize GAW would come under attack at such an important time.
But that was really about the "hide liked" feature (which I would never dream of using and had forgotten about).
I like to think there arent that many anons just upvoting bullshit in order to hide the post on their screen?
That also ties in with forum sliding....i.e. people doing it to hide the 5 posts of the same meme that the same usual suspects have copy/pasted from twitter.
Precisely, I know we are all aware of this, but the vigilance of noticing these things is what is key. If anything, I'm the most concerned about newcomers that genuinely are looking for a good source of info, like family and people who you personally want to see the board.
I'd love to see this as vBulletin for a ton of reasons...It sorta boggles the mind how "archaic" this interface is, given its importance.
Formatting and the need to code it reminds me of the late 90s, non-permanent stickies bothers me... because we could really use that as a more visible thing (nobody reads sidebar),
anonymous up/downdooting is a double edged sword - if everyone knew who up/dn dooted, that would eliminate all sorts of brigaded phuckery AND make people think twice about emotional dooting.
I feel in the case of anonymity - If people were accountable for their dooting, by allowing others to see who voted what way just like every other social site out there, things would change because they would be in the spotlight - and it wouldn't take a genius to figure out who's a glowie, operative or paid shill shitting up our community.
Absolutely. I remember CALeague, TWL forums (these are from back in the CS 1.6, CoD UO and unreal tournament days), independent gaming clan forums and even comedy forums, I admired it so much. There was the index of topics and posts, and like here, you could have Q research, happenings, faith and well being and meme subs separate from each other. We lost so much when reddit came along. I just keep dreaming I guess.
I for one like my online identity. I'm not embarrassed nor have any intent to manipulate or hide who I am. As a matter of fact, my very name goes back as far as 2006 online, and I've never dropped it. If you see me wherever, its probably me. The feds fucking know that lol, so what?
The other day I noticed that covid posts seem to fire straight to the front page and leave other topics in the dust. Was wondering "do we really care so disproportionally about covid??"
I chalked it up to covid being the cabal's hail-mary to usher in the NWO but maybe it's something else? idk
I get upset when good posts get buried. Try to nominate them for stickies but don't abuse that, the mods already get enough mail!
VBulletin would be nice as you can search comments as well as posts, and from what I've seen here, the comments is where the real digs happen
Yep. Having to search only by user or title makes it a bit arduous..
There are many posts I recommend to get sticky that never get it, it's a shame. But at the same time, I dont believe it's intentional.
Someone doesn't like you noticing the fear porn slide posting. Here! Take my upvoat fren!
ty fren<3
I wonder on how long we will have to wait to get total covid exposure. Since that psyop was so universal in that it directly impacted basically every human on the planet, its coming undone will also have universal impact. I do think that's one boomerang-suicide the cabal absolutely under no circumstances wants to come back on them.
It's like a keystone psyop or something
I hear ya and agree! As much as we all want 100% of everything to be exposed, we already know it won't be due to various WH plays and NATSEC issues.
But the C19 habbening is almost guaranteed to be exposed. We've witnessed IRT the BS unravel the past couple yrs, plus as you mentioned it's a huge slap to normie faces that they can and will digest.
My theory, just humble shower thoughts based on IRL events and the Q drops:
The normie public will accept most of what I bullet listed. Easy pills to swallow given how quickly normies calm down and self memory hole habbening. Plus, having an honest MSM will help them swallow all the truth pills they're going to be ingesting.
Just to make a comment to where you said not everything will be exposed, I agree, why should it be? I trust the WH, if it's indeed a movie, enjoy it! Lol, but seriously, I try to help others understand that it's not necessary, and to demand things and get so impatient is it's own tempering, that had to be done unfortunately to help others understand.
TLDR for every covid article you will ever read from this point forward:
It was fake and people are slowly admitting it.
In all humility and grace, anyone doing #2 is being a faggot and a retard.
If such a person isn’t a fedshill, stop immediately. If such a person is a fedshill, you’re going to be being a retardfaggot for free before too long.
I could say it the same but I try to be humble lol. Thank you
Humility is perhaps the most important character trait a person can have. Manipulating a research/meme board in unintended fashion to be lazy is not the proper use of such tool and needs to be called out.
It’s literally “retarded” behavior - operating in reduced function.
By the same note it’s literally “faggot” behavior - the word originated with the meaning of “being a burdensome person”, which is always the context in which I intend the word.
Doing the same thing that a fedshill would do to intentionally disrupt function of the board should be high motivation to stop immediately.
That said, I mostly just phrased it that way because it sounded funny, long live voat, and they can’t be allowed to take those words from us, so apologies if it was too harsh to any genuine posters, just don’t keep doing it.
I will admit I'm not humble all the time, I have my flaws. You think a lot like me how I talk overtly and sometimes in jest, but I'm partially being serious lol
Very valid. I've thought about this but not at the angle of filtering it. Thank you
Some people have accused me of forum sliding in the past which I take offense to.... I spend a lot of time looking for relevant info & then post it here for the 'good of the community'.... I have posted Many many Q posts, deltas, etc but they don't seem to gain traction which is odd considering we all here 'because' of Q... That's why I post 'relevant' info, comments and opinions I think are valid......
Edit: Go ahead and downvote instead of engaging...Real fucking mature...🙄
Edit Edit : Which one of the 4 Tards has the Cahones to constructively engage?? 😏🙂...NONE 😶
I'm dead lmao
GO ON STEP UP SAY IT TO HIS FACE!
I love trolling downdoot-dashers. Can't refute a point or challenge it so they just hit the button and run away.
Purkiss you're a legend. Usually when I find something to post here I have to search the board and at least 50% of the time if it's been posted it was posted by you. Kek
Board needs a custom Purkiss search! 😂😂
I thank you for your support....👌🙏🏻👊🏻 I have no problem being downvoted, BUT at least have the fucking Balls to say why? I have no time for Cowards....
they must've smelled my post because they came back to do it again lmfao
downdooting every post I make in here
was it something I said?
I've been here for nearly 4 years now and in that time I think I have missed 4 days of posting....😏🙂
Edit: To the retard....Be A Man and come out of the shadows and confront me??
It's probably JFK Jr or NESARA disinfo shills 😉
o7 Keep up the good work anon, you are a most appreciated asset in the trenches!
I'll engage, lol
But seriously, I'll admit I'm guilty sometimes of possibly misjudging the motive of a post. In honesty I did do that a very few times over the course of the past few years with yours, but I've learned after reading more of your posts that hell, you do a lot for us being able to report from SA and offer a very valuable perspective from someone not living in the US. You're a ground reporter, and you are a good one and a rarity here.
BTW I upvoted for the quality of your response, as I have done many many times before
Thank you man, I appreciate it... As you can see you were down voted....🤣🤣😁
It's fine, loomers gonna loom lol
Good post. Should have addressed the completely fake posts that we are being overrun with. And i mean obvious fakes that are getting 100+ upvotes every day.
And when did anons start to worry about feelings over facts? Leave that weak minded thin skinned bs to the 4-6% lost forever types.
When this happens, we need Anons to work overdrive deporting. Helps a ton if you also put a comment on the post explaining why its fake, and then deport.
Problem with that is there's at least one of the mod squad that tends to protect some of the better known larpy hopium sources. Anons have called this stuff out in the past only to be insulted and scolded for having the gall to speak out against this kinda stuff.
An excellent example would be the recent flood of JFK Jr posts. They are absurd, make the board look bad, and confuse fellow anons with delusional hopium.
Here's a remarkable example of a slide and division post from yesterday
Not to mention that topic is also YEARS old. A simple search on this site would show the extent it has already been vetted out by anons.
I reported that one lol. It's actually one of the posts that inclined me to make mine.
Youre right. Although sometimes I think it should be left up so ppl can see that it was fake. If it just disappears then no one gets to see the anon comments trying to tell everyone its fake.
Maybe instead of deleting it we can put a big fake news in the title or as top comment then lock the thread?
Hell yeah I fervently agree, like a DUNCE sticky lol
Yep I do my best to. You guys can't see or police everything, nor is it humanly possible. It's a great feat to be a mod, as I once was before. It's so exhausting but really, it can be very enjoyable. Thank you bubs, and to all our mods. We should have a weekly mod appreciation thread lol.
I agree with OP. I think that DOES happen here. These are examples
Fake Joe Biden threads is my new #1 for shill-spotting activity. The topic literally doesn't matter one bit to plan to save the world. Makes us look stupid too imo
I mean I do believe that's not really Joe, but I agree fully the deep obsession with it is odd. It's not really super important. It's his reputation that sent us into major national security threats, laundering cash and funding what results in the abuse and torture of innocent people is the real story, whether that's really him and he is alive or not.
And many more. It's so weird to see some of these theories that make no sense at all, and I'm fully admitting I'm into conspiracy theory and some that are borderline hilarious and super hard to believe just for the sake of it. It's weak if you ask me
This has been a problem for awhile now. Glad you have brought attention to it. This forum has become more of a recycled news aggregator than a discussion forum, especially concerning Q.
so has 8kun
I don't think that's a bug, but a feature. We are the news now so we need to know what's going on to discuss it and frame it properly for those who aren't tuned in.
Q isn't posting right now so there isn't much to discuss on that end. Are there any drops left that haven't been decoded? Might make for a fun thread (:
This link gets posted here occasionally, relevant for this thread: https://cryptome.org/2012/07/gent-forum-spies.htm
I remember this! Thank you for sharing and yes, very relevant and just think of how it's evolved since then.
This and if I may add, another big part of sliding is that the propagandist's primary goal is to "slide" other inconvenient threads out of people's sight, not necessarily just to promote their own narrative but hey, two birds one stone right?
Like if your feed is filled with people talking about Seth Rich or something, and then the glowies come in and fill the air with nonsense (like you said) so that it gets the Seth Rich stuff lost in the shuffle.
People posting unrelated stuff with no malicious intent has the equal effect of sliding things off the board.
Just thought I'd add because it's not just about pushing false narratives, but it's "using junk to hopefully push true narratives off and out of the view of people" which is a huge part of it.
You know, you say Seth Rich anywhere, or John McAfee, and the sliding avalanche begins. Ain't it odd? Lol. I should have explained this in OP but I really appreciate you did because that's a big part of it too.
There are beloved posters on here who just can't stop posting their diarrhea.
Forum sliding has been a goto tactic for trolls for 20 years. Its no surprise that the tactics employed by the iperatives who visit us here are from trolls.
So...you've noticed what the board has gradually become. And why people either disengage or leave entirely - many, long before it got this bad (time suck for engagement more than anything, I came to realize).
Now consider the questions...
Is it deliberate?
Does it matter?
--PS
I just assume there are many lurkers who take things off here and post it in normieland so I post things with that in mind. The format of this site isn't the greatest for deep digs unless you start a thread with the dig in the main post. The comment tree format becomes unusable after it begins filling up imo.
With the phase of the plan we're in I think we're supposed to aggregate news and craft the true narrative to then be deployed to counter the fake news MSM. "You are the news now"
Dig, meme, pray
I know there are several big content creator channels who browse this site so if things make it to the front page it has a chance to get REAL exposure quick, though they don't credit where they got it. That's a bittersweet thing.
All valid points; good contribution.
if anything it's a great research archive
I can't think of any valid "conspiracy theory" or prominent cabal member which has no representation on here
It’s not a problem…
It’s a feature…
Just like what they’re doing at PDW, with all the rage porn, fear porn, etc. There’s a specific user there that posts some of the most horrific stories all day every day. Just to bring down your energy and cause you to be angry and fearful.
It’s not a problem… It’s a feature.
I use this comment a lot on PDW!
My lowly opinion is we have a handful of very arrogant people who think they are smarter than everybody else and they make it a full time job to turn the board into a clearinghouse for every news article they can find (20+ new posts a day under multiple alt accounts) Justifying themselves by saying it's relevant. Most times it's only relevant to their paranoid world view that they need to wake everybody up and God alone can't do this w/out their help
Consider what I do.
I have zero posts, we have plenty of good people finding material and posting it here.
Also people need to look at the dates, if it happened yesterday, the odds are 99% that it's been posted.
I've gotten flamed so much for "not posting enough content", so that therefore invalidates my existence here. I'm sorry I have a job and a lot of shit going on in my life, but I've learned not to take it personally and that those who have that short sighted opinion do it for attention anyway. I appreciate everyone, even those who sometimes get in disputes with me, because I know when it's not personal and when it's just intentional banting.
No one has ever said a word to me about not posting,you must be pissing people off.....
Forum sliding is a very real thing. I don't see a point in me adding to it.
lol who flamed you for NOT posting??
I've never heard of that on here, you must've found a snot-nosed shill!
Kek, its been a while. Id honestly have to look back but it's somewhere in my post history. I actually stopped posting and coming here for a while because it truly did bother me, but if I remember correctly the few involved left or got banned for griefing others
One of the mods is still a mod here, but no reason to bring it up because that's the past and it's no gain or reason to bring it up anyway, Ive let it go and no reason to be sore about it. I still respect the job they do.
I've seen it. The certain jannie who likes to protect fake news often quips with snarky paraphrase "oh, and when's the last time you made a post? Checks history... Yeah that's what I thought now shuddup and stop grieving!"
Ah. Now that you mention it I have seen that. Wasn't thinking about mods.
I assume something like that is to infer that the account is a sleeper / shill or newfag who hasn't yet proven themselves to be in good faith or knowledgeable of a topic they comment on. I think it's quite unprofessional though
Honestly, I think this board is pretty much on target, actually. I don't see too much off-topic stuff, really. Admittedly, I always go to NEW and never to HOT. Actually, if HOT did not exist, and there was only NEW, then the whole updoot problem would go away.
Posts on things like home schooling, better diet/exercise, buying from local farmers and stuff may seem to be off topic but I would argue actually are relevant. Part of what we discuss is how to build a better society after the defeat of the Deep State, so the bureaucratic class is made irrelevant. Smaller communities, local control of more things, and self-sufficiency are part of that. I think those are legit topics.
I've accidentally posted duplicates from time to time, for which I apologize. But generally no argument with this.
Yes, there are a subset of posts, sensationalist, lurid, and not well documented. General advice is "Do not feed the trolls".
Have to say though I have found information in the weirdest sites, stuff like celeb blind sites and stuff sometimes contain interesting nuggets that can contribute to an overall picture. Politics has always been downstream of culture and this is a culture war. The left understood that way before we did and has used it to great effect. I don’t think we should confine our information grazing or posting to any narrow definition. I think we’d be leaving a blind spot that could be exploited by the BHs if we do.
You're right, so long as people use good discernment.
Your observation is accurate, I believe it may have to do with the time or day and the current cycle of events, and there have been better quality posts recently. Its a back and forth thing, and I don't mean to make any generalizations, I just thought to make light of it because I know a lot of people are concerned and it's just something we need to discuss. I guess really I hope to filter out a bit of noise more than anything
Fyi, vbulletin sucks. This is way better.
My only issue is when fake sites get posted. Usually the poster is buying into the nonsense and it's not on purpose. Then we have flat earthers still posting their nonsense whenever they can, although it's been better of late.
Whoah man show me the curve 🤣🤣🤣 /s
6 posts of the same link is so easy to avoid with a simple search of this board.
X (formerly known as twatter) and TGP aggregate anymoar. I miss the days of digz and research. The reposts CONSTANT reposts to the point it's spamming drive me crazy. But hey I just scroll on and I've never complained until now. Seems like the poast to vent on kek. I understand the value of the doots for exposure of the good ones but ffs it just encourages the karma farming with BS. IDGAF about the doots, I have an actual life with tangible and real value. OK done.
Venting here is one of the reasons why I posted! I know a lot are frustrated about this, but there's always a space to discuss and get other opinions, even if we disagree. That's what I genuinely appreciate the most, just having a good discussion and coming together. I'm so happy to see some people who I haven't seen post in a while reply.
Healthy discussions and debate.
ThanQ o7
Have to agree. I lurk a lot, if RL allows I’ll post the odd dig and occasionally post stuff that piques my interest or may amuse some pedes. I don’t often get chance to go down rabbit holes and research as much as I’d like. I see plenty of stuff that may grind gears but I just scroll on by. The board moves and stuff slides and we’ve always had organized sliding attempts . It’s information warfare, we are in an asymmetrical battlefield. If we see shit happening like the lady said we don’t retreat we reload. While I can see why some folks get so salty or aggravated it’s not helpful to the boards. If you see something suspect deport with a note explaining why. Likewise if you see a good post that deserves to be stickied. This community kinda grew from the days of shitposting on earlier incarnations (pre spez ban hammer apocalypse on Reddit) and as the late great Andrew Breitbart said, I personally try to keep the tongue in cheek approach of a happy warrior to stuff to keep me sane in amongst all this shit.
Ye .....

As someone that has been here almost two years I enjoy the wide variety posted here.
You can keep it mainly Q related but that isn't all that is going on on the world.
You need a little humor and variety.
Just my opinion.
I appreciate the opinion, but I do think posting out of posture does need to be addressed, at least for others to be able to offer their insight, with not only the awareness of it going on, as you have.
Slide threads are a menace.
We are the news now.
literally 😂
Indeed, and the only news to many who have turned off MSM. Also the reason why I saw it necessary to post my thoughts.
And yet making and sharing “dank memes” is akin to picking up a gun on the current digital battlefield. NCSWIC!!!
Personally I love a good dank meme and miss the days of brick bot and the train with no brakes
I wish there were more. I miss the constant flow of dank, so much energy from times before.
It does seem that some posts are accepted and others not. I recently posted an article that brought up a lot of interesting details that tied together a lot of connections with Q and the Awakening, but it was disliked due to the fact that the article was written by the woke Guardian.
I barely read most of their articles, as like a lot of MSM, they mostly like telling us why we should think this way or that etc.
But as I sped read my way through it, key points stood out.
It did tell the events that are going on from a left sided bias, but we should be able to read an article like that and discuss it, tear it to shreds if you will. I found some of the points they were making, they were obviously applying to Trump, and yet you could apply a lot of it, especially the corruption, to what is going on with the Dems, Biden and Burisma etc.
The left is clearly afraid after Chevron of what is coming.
I've posted articles from the launch page on Firefox, to show the unusually valid points being made, or an article that has potential comms in it, only for it to just stagnate. But that's okay, honestly I have a post history, anyone can look it up. I just hope the links don't expire.
Nice. I am a consumer here and will post my opinion. I look at double posts as a good thing and it’s up to the mods to figure out what they want to do with it.
Why a good thing?
Because I believe in a mathematical equations and if more than one person is seeing the same thing around the same time, it means there is LOTS out there seeing that too. Plus it takes a lot of energy and thought for some of these posts I see here. At other times it is nice to see how close some of the view points are to each other.
In my opinion those that are in the 1 percent bracket of what is going on with Q and geopolitics and even humor reside here and I am sure they reside in other such forums too. :)
it's unavoidable at some point. People come across things at different times, coupled with the fact that things are often posted with a title that doesn't link to a good keyword for the search function
Yeah that’s interesting. In telecom over the years we have had many different servers starting with a as400 back in the day. Over the years I can skim down a page and pull out what I want to and when I find something of interest I slow down.
We use to use a lot symbolism in our notes and orders so we can skim to them fast visually. Things change for sure.
From General Flynn's 5GW book:
Very good quote to share from his book. Should be it's own sidebar quote.
