GD Politics Subforum Requires Fair and Balanced Moderation

[Blaine]

Among many other issues caused by the current unfair and imbalanced arrangement, the most obvious is that Lord Azlan is free to quad- and quint-post in the Trump megathread with impunity. Plenty of people have added him to their ignore lists, but if someone constantly engaged in this behavior in any of the gaming subforums, they'd be nuked.

Current moderators assigned to janitorial duties in the Politics subforum:

• Scruffy — left-wing ideologue
• Grunker — socialist left-wing ideologue
• JarlFrank — apolitical, only cares about foot fetish, doesn't even visit GD

and by default

• DarkUnderlord (admin) — doesn't give a shit about anything as befits job description

Basically, there are four people who don't do much of anything (or who purposely refuse to, as is the case with Scruffy) in charge of the Politics subforum, and there is a clear left-wing bias.

Now, if I were an agenda-pushing slime like Scruffy, I'd suggest that he be replaced by a different moderator. However, he is active in the subforum; and since JarlFrank is a neutral party, I think it would be best if Grunker were replaced by an active and right-wing (or right wing-sympathetic) moderator, such as WhiskeyWolf.

It's not as if any of the current moderators are doing anything to clean the place up anyway. Where's the harm?

Thank you for your attention, and have a blessed day.

what else is new?

Politics is that sub-forum that no one really wants to talk about.

 

[Blaine]

When it comes fulfilling one's duties, one's wants, opinions, and personal biases shouldn't factor in.

If they do, then the solution is simple: a replacement who will fulfill those duties.

1. not a mod
2. when I was I worked from the time-honored principle of trying to do as little as possible taking notes from my master and sensei LundB
3. I'm anti immigration before leftist ideologue (also aren't social democrats sort of anti ideology per definition)
4. jarlfrank isn't apolitical he's like a nazi or something isn't he
5. what was this about again?

edit: politics forum sucks

 

[catfood]

Higher Game for politics mod.

 

[tmux]

I deeply apologise

 

[WhiskeyWolf]

I'm not an objective party.

Lambchop19 for Politics Mod!

 

[Infinitron]

Oh ffs.

Tell me what thread Lord Azlan is spamming in and I'll ban him from it.

P.S. Those moderator lists under each forum's title are out-of-date bullshit.

 

[JarlFrank]

I'm not a neutral party, I'm so far to the right you're way left of me.

I just don't care enough about the politics subforum to moderate it. Sifting through hundreds of pages of shitflinging by people who haven't even read Mein Kampf? No thanks.

 

[Grunker]

Mein Kampf

Grunker's addled memory vs. Blaine's posturing: 1-0

Donald Trump discuss. Also get oneself while you're taking out the spam.

No shit. The listing for Scruffikins has him listed two entire username iterations ago.

Oh ffs.

Now wait a minute, I don't want to be responsible for causing someone's suicide. That's all he has to look forward to in his life.

Where else? He's been at it for months.

 

[Infinitron]

Oh, that.

Hey Lord Azlan, why don't you start your own Anti-Trump Thread or something.

Politics subforum is an echo chamber already, making an alt-righter mod would just worsen it even more. Because unlike the "I don't give a shit" mods that are installed currently, an alt-rightist would actively censor differing opinions. Well, also GD and pol is absolute shit so who cares lmao.

I will be the best politics mod you've ever seen.

Harsh but fair.

I actually don't give a shit either. But trying to read a thread with a committed autist who posts spam repeatedly is annoying.

You can ignore them, but you can't ignore all the people who don't have them on ignore.

Yes Scrooge, it's definitely right-wingers who live in an echo chamber and actively censor differing opinions.

Did you miss the entire NeoGAF thread? It had (emphasis on past tense) 10x the Codex's traffic, was full of left-wingers, and... well:

We welcome all left-wingers in GD and Politics. It's not our fault they're scared to post there.

 

[Scroo]

You can only be fair if you don't give a shit. Once the codex starts censoring opinions from no matter what direction will be the day I will be out forever. I couldn't moderate politics bc I WOULD give a shit but since I think even the (in my opinion) most retarded opinions should be voiced I rather not moderate a section where I could be tempted to mess with ppls postings just bc I think they are shit

Alt-righters and sjws are completely the same when it comes to trying to censor different opinions. And both live in echochambers. That's why they are called echochambers.

 

[Snorkack]

oh god someone made four posts in a row! Help, Internet Police!
Blaine do you also request a ban for Luzur? Because he frequently makes several posts in a row in the random image thread, too.

 

[tmux]

meanwhile blaine shares his experiences with hemorrhoids and constipation on shoutbox and nobody bats an eye

 

[Grunker]

Alt-righters and sjws are completely the same

uh oh, blainesplosion in 3... 2... 1...
