If you want the site cleaned up properly and degenerates tamed or long gone DM me or post here.

Note that I am responsible for 5 of the past 6 mod actions on the moderator log thread. David pressuring them also led to many of those outcomes.

  1. We will need to organise exactly as the degenerates are unified. We must be unified, well stratified and behind a figurehead for the cleanup. I nominate myself. Fauxlaw is another option.
  2. We must not in any way at all affiliate with any current moderator except David. David alone is who we advocate to. 0 split loyalties permitted. We want all other mods demoted.
  3. The rest will be told on DMs. David will be able to read DMs once he owns the website. So the contingency of me creating a competitor to this if this final hope fails is to be discussed offsite completely. Details can be discussed on DM about ways to do that.
  4. You must want the site to be one you show your family and friends with pride. One you feel 0 literally 0 shame saying you participate in regularly let alone moderate and/or are significant in.
  5. Anyone that has not shown signs of being for a cleanup in their behaviour or allegiances here will not be involved.
This is a public made thread to draw you in. Wylted and Mikal lead the enemy revolution and the mods except David have totally sold out to their cause.

We will coup. We will win. Trust me. Trust God. Either via David or via a new site succeeding far beyond this, victory will be ours.

Message me. 0 split loyalties allowed. Nobody aligned with Savant is allowed, you can detach from him. Make sure you tell them nothing at all. They are corrupt that entire Discord server is corrupt. Ignore them.

I will lead the revolution totally alone, except with God and Saints of course or with Earthly assistance. It is your choice.

I'd like a site I can be proud of, but I'd rather have no mods at all than oppressive authoritarianism.

I am interested in learning more about your campaign, but I think you've already written me off so I wonder if I should even ask

Campaigns get voted. This is a bit different. It is about us messaging David united. David thinks theres only 1 faction and me standing alone on the other side.

This is a valid misinterpretation as our side has stood divided for many years here. This largely is due to our side affiliating with the direct enemies of our cause that are in power such as Whiteflame and Barney.

I'm still not clear on what your objections are to WF and Barney. They seem like decent chaps.

This is the most honest I'm ever going to be.: I don't care about the site politics, or these one-sided revolts.

There are only two things I care about.: Recreational debate and casual forum discussions.

That's it.
I have my own ideas of how the site should operate, but suggestions and beliefs are all they'll ever be. This site is not worth fighting for and if it can't be changed through diplomatic appeal or policy reform, then forget it. It's a lost cause anyway.
These coup attempts and power struggles are genuinely the goofiest thing about this platform.

This post is not even a sign of passion or dedication, it's obsession. Persistent and unrelenting devotion to a futile cause. 
Very few people will be inspired by this call to action, but for those of you actually considering it, I highly encourage you to hop on board. 
Please do. 

The futility of an unnecessary and pointless mission will be the reality check you need when all your hard work and efforts amount to nothing. That's the outcome you will achieve. 
If anyone can put all this time and effort into hijacking a site through brute force, then the least you could do is build your own from scratch like Adaptable claimed he was going to do multiple times. 

This back-and-forth revolution is a perpetual timeloop of Adaptable's own making, that he is trapped in.
If you wish to join him in his cycle of self-destruction, please feel free to do so.
But if anyone here instead decides they want to stop wasting time and facilitate positive change, I suggest they start thinking of some new policy ideas for the new CoC and pitch them to David, or join David's discord and volunteer their technical expertise.
We could really use the help.

The last paragraph is literally what we are going to do. We also will be advocating him to cut ties with the mods that have run this place into the ground.

That’s a very big mistake for multiple reasons.: 

  • The current mods, despite their shortcomings, have experience and dedication. Their roles as assets are not expendable, especially now. 
  • We have no guarantee that the replacements will even be competent, or if they’ll be active. They haven’t proven anything yet. What’s the backup plan if the successors are worse than the predecessors? Another coup?
  • Most site staff are paid. So any new mods will likely expect some form of compensation. Our current mods are unpaid volunteers who have shown they are fine not being paid. 
And this raises another obvious question, why do we need to get rid of the current mods? 
If the problem is they’re too weak, and they operate like a democracy. That only suggests we need more mods. Stronger mods, with a backbone. Providing pushback would be enough to persuade whiteflame to use stronger enforcement. 
Cutting ties with all of them, when they’re shortstaffed as it is, with no guarantee of an adequate amount of replacements or finding anyone reliable is just too big of a risk.

You realise I was that and got demodded instantly by whiteflame and barney right?

I have so tested in forum games and ensured I am not biased it is genuinely a double atandard reality. In fact had lashwnda had higher social standing here I reckon thehd have let her keep being as racist as she wanted just like WF and Barney did with Wylted for almost an entire month until David showed up and stopped it.

You have a blindspot. They are why your agenda will fail. Even if mine does too. We share a common enemy, only I accept it. In fact I already thought it beforehand but wondered if once modded Id get to fix the site.

I don’t have enemies, I am no longer at war. 

And you are being severely dishonest to yourself, me, and everyone here.
You weren’t demodded for being a pain in the ass to whiteflame.
You were demodded for derailing a forum thread by making unreasonable demands, flexing your power on everyone else, and then abusing your mod privilege to try and overthrow the one guy who supported you enough to allow your promotion. 

Your ability to succeed with this revolution is not the problem you need to worry about. The problem is even if you do succeed, you no longer have a workable plan. 
You have no contingencies for backup mod candidates, no CoC revisions or substitutes, or any marketing strategies. 
Your whole platform collapses and becomes a 0 population ghost town.

I did not derail it in fact I put the rules in place to stop it getting derailed.

If you notice those that then proceeded to abuse me in that thread themselves derailed it completely.

What I actually did was stop a RemyBrown antisemitic thread from becoming outright Nazism. I genuinely made the right call.

Within  2 weeks of me being demodded he got banned a whole months

David is even willing to pay for advertising the site.

Right now barely anybody clicking those ads will stick around and the ad platform, especially if it is adsense, will ban him from ever advertising again given the contents on here, once they realise.

Staging a mod coup with the support of your revolution team and starting all over to rebuild it sounds like a lot more work than simply starting your own site. 

Do you even have backup mods for when you get rid of whiteflame, Barney, and Vader? If so, who are they?
How can you guarantee they are reliable?

If allowed to take the reigns I will show a different way to run things that does not burden anyone too much.

I will give you a clue:

Right now the only mods that reply fast enough are WF and Barney. Due to this the heads are doing the same job as low ranking secretaries or receptionists.

That is not an insult to what secretaries and receptionists do.

It is a reality.

Despite being so open to contact, due to manipulation strategies and tactical silence, the mods, especially all of the mods who are not Barney, avoid ever defending or addressing anything publicly in a back and forth manner.

All this would alter if I take the reigns.

I won't leak details beyond that. I have a very good plan and the Lord will assist things in mysterious ways if he approves of it. I am waiting to see.

Leak details?

You are inciting a revolution and encouraging the site to participate. And now you're withholding important information. Which means one of three things.: 
  1. You didn't think this through. You saying you won't leak details is actually you saying you don't have any. 
  2. You're not confident it will work. And you don't want to spill the beans because it would be obvious to everyone else. 
  3. You plan to do something that you know people will not agree with.
You are expecting the community to stake the stability of this platform by gambling their trust in you to achieve some mysteriously vague plan. If your bulletproof formula is to rely on The Lord, then there are far more feasible directions and pathways to take. 
How do you plan to establish credibility when you can't describe what it is you intend to do?

There is no they. David leads alone and can readjust the entire hierarchy here.

Those truly with me on this cause can DM me for details. If they leak it that is on them.

The mission is to convince David there is genuinely a different faction.

Adaptable was curious what you think. He had this idea for a revolution, but he wanted to discuss your thoughts and get your approval on it first because he was nervous you might disagree.

@AdaptableRatman.

Undoubtedly.


And you seem to have lost sight of the fact, that  "different factions" is the essence of debate.

And burning heretics satisfies the lust of the sexually repressed, in the name of a wayward son of a dysfunctional Judean family.

In my opinion.
