You've seen 4chan /pol/, right? It's 75% spam. It's gone already

>>1575
Yeah, I still don't understand why the mods didn't keep this board

They made a big mistake imo

>>1574
I dunoo about that. I guess that depends on what kind of 4chan do you have in mind. Young 4chan with blackhats residing on /b/, CP posted from time to time but overall strong community? At leats thats what I heard about how it used to be in its beginings.

Or do you mean current 4chan? You'd have to try pretty hard to fuck up that much...

>>1576
I think /pol/ boards are incredible and deletion of 4/pol/ would be an cathartic act.
But I don't think they plan to do that...

>>1576
In my personal opinion the Mods are actively hostile towards the /pol/ board. You get banned after 20 minutes for posting a pony in a thread at 4AM, so it's not like it's unmoderated. Yet almost all of the threads are the kind of spam that could be produced by a bot. If there were any board on all of 4chan that needs rigorous thread deletion for quality, it's /pol/. But the mods leave spam and shit posts (even if they do delete obvious shill threads sometimes), so they must just not care. Newfags there are too stupid not to respond to bait and spam, so it clutters the catalog

All we need is one major event to piss off /pol/ and we will have lots of refugees. Unfortunately it seems that /pol/ is just slowly being pushed into oblivion. Hopefully another /pol/ harbor happens soon.

>>1577
I was thinking about 4chan of old. It doesn't have to get big right away, but I predict that with enough advertising it'll get steadily popular

>>1579
Yeah, I'm not having fun with /pol/ anymore, it's so boring now

(user was witnessed for this post)

>>1574
let's be honest, 4chan is doomed in general, mlpol however is a place of safety and love, where NatSoc and Libertarians come to mingle in peace with our MLP friends posting horse poon to keep out the normies, shills, etc.
4chan will devolve into a social network soon, mark my words

>>1581
Well, you're more than welcome to stay here. True, the board is pretty slow, and the lack of GR15 means that sometimes the entire first page gets taken over by ponies for brief periods, but the OC is amazing, we do have good discussions, and spam is deleted within five minutes

>>1581
Also, nice 27,000 GET

Part of the reason /pol/ is dying is because of the mods and newfags. This board will live on because the mods are either from /mlp/ or /pol/ and both are used to being hated and ignored by the mods. So the mods here are actually good and try to keep shit from devolving into what our parent boards became.
Newfags won't last mostly because of the horse pussy but also because this board has a large amount of Nat socs. That is what kept normies off of /pol/ before but what killed /pol/ was lolbertrians being hostile towards the nat socs that were scaring off normies. I'd say that started around gg and has been accelerating ever since, where you now see threads on /pol/ where underage lolbertrians are actively hostile to us.
Needless to say I like this place a lot more and think its going to last. We just need a bit more traffic from true/pol/ diaspora and this place will be comfy as fuck.

>>1581
btw the green text is just us bantzing at you, you're not banned <3

I made a new thread
http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/125536659

>>1580
Yeah, another cuckening will do.
8ch already has their fair share of shitposts and shills.
We would probably be the first board they would go, or maybe another /pol/ board on 8ch.

This place just needs to not become a data mine or a side project to the people who run it

>>1591
It's not I swear, our devs work tirelessly to ensure everything is secure and no info can be mined, we're working on a hashed IP system now that should be in place soon
as for it being a side project, well I made this place because I love it I remember /pol/ from the old days and what it's become now is an abomination, I'll never allow that to happen here, not tomorrow, not next month, not for a thousand years
\r

>>1592
I'm well aware of the steps taken by staff bb

I love this board; all it needs is a bit more activity, and it would be perfect.

>>1594
That activity will only come if you're active

>>1574
>how will 4chan recover?
It's because 4chan will never recover that we're branching off.

>>1596
this

>>1595
I'll make an effort to post more. I work full time though, and I assume a lot of anons do also. The board could undoubtedly benefit from more contributers.

(USER WAS GIVEN A CUPKEK)

>>1598
That it truly could

>>1598
Yep we're still a bit slow but give it some time and we'll hit the comfy stage where threads and moving along good.

>>1599
The bad part about being a right-focused culture is most of us have gainful employment. Coupled with the amerocentric userbase means we still have dead hours. Fixing some of the privacy concerns (hashing IPs mainly) could drive traffic from countries where the content of the site is illegal

>>1598
Way to go anon! Cupkek?

>>1601
I'll burn the server to the ground before I allow it to be seized

>>1582
Is there a way to advertise /mlpol/ on /pol/ without getting banned? This definitely needs the word to spread out

>>1603
You and I both know there's no way to do that safely enough remotely. Be proactive, not reactive

>>1604
we've been looking into it however talks with the mods on 4chan have resulted in simple replies somewhere along the line of "HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA"

>>27037
if you want proactive, there are only two ways onto the server, encryption keys that are held only by myself and the headdev
the server itself has a killswitch which requires only that I send a signal to it, in the event of any form of disconnection from the net the server automatically reboots and the server is encrypted so any attempt to break it would require all the compute power that the US gov has at it's disposal for the next decade
\r

>>1606
What if we include the website in our name? Would that get us banned?

>>1606
I can't imagine they would ever agree to let us advertise.

>>1608
You know, there was once a pony ad on /pol/ promoting /mlp/.
Maybe we could find a more subtle way to tell people about this place without brining in nu/pol/

>>1609
Yeah, there has to be a way we can make it into a signature of sorts

This is how 4chan feels about mlpol

We've been working on making OC that hints the website and doesn't get banned, but we still need more. We have an expert shitposter and image maker who hopefully will help us with that when he can
>>1607
Thus far we've only been banned for ponies

Burn it to the ground.

>>1606
Why not just buy an ad? Not that complicated. Spamming posts advertising your own board has been against the rules on 4chan since the good old days of an- on talk.

Also holy crap your server is slow.

>>1614
what do you mean? no one else has complained about it being slow

>>1614
All 4chan ads require staff approval. Not gonna happen outside of /mlp/

>>1615
It might just be my internet connection but it feels like loading images and threads is much slower here.

:c

>>1617
Oh that varies. Usually it's very qucik. It has frozen to a snail's pace before

>>1617
I'm on mobile in a metal box right now and have no problem m8

>>1612
Provide me shop ammo in the rebuilding thread and I'll make maor thar. Wish Wish made the dreadnought merger one. That ones great

>>1619
Yes after browsing a bit more it does seem more hit and miss than consistently slow.

>>1622
that actually might be due to our archiver, we've been trying o make the archive work but so far it's just made everything slow down ._.

>>1621
Wish Wish?

>>1617
>>1619
>>1622
I have never noticed any slowdown.

>>1623
Weren't you running it on chron before? Why not just run it on new thread creation? That's the only time you'll need to archive a thread

>>1626
oh, um, well I didn't think about that
gimmie one second plz

>>1624
I wish*

>>1627
You also don't need to arch the whole site, just threads that die off

>>1628
That image was made by the regular Slovak poster

>>1630
Da, saw him in the 40k thread I made. I'm jelly I didn't do it

I wouldn't mind it one bit if nu/pol/ just disappeared since shills have destroyed it to the point its unrecognizable. Shit the shills are also invading other boards on 4chan too like /k/ and others.

I hope this board does replace 4chan or at least /pol/. With good admins, mods, and ponies, I have a lot of hope for this board.

>>1632
/k/ too? I noticed in /bant/ there are shill threads now. But I don't care for 4chan. I only go there to raid

>>1614
I wouldn't want us giving 4chan money even if it meant this place staying a bit slower.

>>1634
You gotta admit though, it would be funny as fuck to see /mlpol/ adds on 4chins

>>1634
We can always just shill by spamming our shit their for free

>>1635
It would be, but I can't stand gook. I mean, God help me, I almost wish that kike Milo had bought 4chan or something. At least he seems like he would have some fun. I mean, literally anyone who actually appreciate the idea of owning a website would be better than the jap.

>>1637
It's still a mystery to me why I say "I mean" so much when I'm typing. I don't even do it when I speak. From now on, whenever​ so.eone sees me say "I mean, please correct me with shock images.

>>1637
>literally anyone who actually appreciate the idea of owning a website would be better than the jap.
Pretty much, yeah.

This website is too slow to topple 4chan, or at least become a "direct" competitor. It'd be nice to see that happen though. At this rate, 4chan is practically Reddit 2.0

>>1598
Yeah its been hard to post with work and I'm pretty sure most of us have some sort of responsibility here unlike all the edge lords on 4ching.

>>1640
I think the answer is, we stop worrying about killing 4chins, and just focus on being better than 4chins. We can exude quality, and the anons who give a shit will find us. And you know they will, because those anons lurk hard, and get involved in circles that would spread the word.

>>1641
this. If butt-devastating /qa/ has taught me one thing, it's that all one's occupying can be undone during their 9-5.
>>1642
also this. Creativity and OC will spread the word far better than advertized banners imo

>>1643
All I know is that once we encyclopia dramatica tears us a new asshole with some article we will know we've made it.

>>1644
yup

>>1644
Holy shit, I didn't mean to send that. I'm on my phone and I can't stop sending awful posts. I'm just going to stop typing until I can use a computer.

>>1646
Well you weren't wrong

>>1647
Dubs confirm

>>1644
The best thing we could do is to have Aryanne or one of our OC be declared a hate symbol

>>1635
This.
It really would be a spectacle.

>>1637
This.
That slanty-eyed kike doesn't give a shit about 4chins.

>>1649
This.
Somebody send a tip to the ADL.

I just posted "this" three times in a row...

>>1598
I can't post all the time, but I try to. Let's all work together for a better board!

>>1654
We love u /mlpol/-tan!

>>1654
We love you and your work for this board!

>>1604
>This definitely needs the word to spread out
i agree but we should be careful as to who we attract. quantity is pointless without quality.

>>1657
We're targeting /pol/ right now

>>1598
I'll try too. But I just started playing mount and blade.

>>1655
>>1656
Ah... Thank you... Y-you too...

>>1615
It works good for me.

>>1631
Don't be jelly. If you can fix that ground under dreadnaughts feet, you can take credits if you like.

>>1586
This

>>1574
We just hit over 1k users. We are not in the media interest like nu/pol/. The only place worthy being there are few generals like /sg/ , /nat-soc/ , lolbertarians right or western art.

We are the future. And we are growing stronger with each day!

>>1574
>Is this the new 4chan?
Well, it is for me. I've hardly even touched nu/pol/ in the past month. In the first couple weeks, I just intentionally got myself b& so that I wouldn't crawl back like a battered wife, but now I find that I I don't even need to.
The board was slow in the morning yesterday, so I thought "Hey, maybe I'll go back to nu/pol/ and copy+paste a political thread because I'm a lazy fuck". I was astounded to see that there were no topics worth stealing.
4chan is a walking corpse.

>>1574
As mlpol's resident Newfag, I can say that for me there literally never was any other board. I never came to 4chan before April 1st. After the end of the merged boards I followed the mlpol community in its raids on /qa/, and then to here. I have no desire to be anywhere but here. Where else can I find my dual interests in ponies and politics expressed as well as here? I've never lived through nu/pol/ and the decline of that board but I've seen it. I can tell just by looking at the catalog that the board is sickly and that poor moderation is killing it. So let's make this board what the admins of 4chan refuse to allow 4chan to be

>>1667
I have generals filtered out even though I like /nat-soc/ and used to go on /sg/. I just don't like the idea of an insular sub-community on a board which is why this place makes me happy to see they have banned generals.

When I go back to /pol/ I just lurk through the catalog and if I see something that seems like genuine good discussion I join in. Its very rare but once in a blue moon I'll find a good thread but its all but too rare. All the newfags are shilling Colbert Cancer and trying to get /pol/ to be their personal army by turning x into a hate symbol or doxing y antifa member. That and the normal shilling is making the board empty of real conversation.

But its good to see we've hit 1k, we will continue to grow.

>>1669
Alright resident newfag when I say it I mean it, lurk for at least 2months min. Just look and enjoy, so far your doing well just by looking at your post, but it never hurts to lurk and learn. I would like for this board to have more posters because the traffics a bit low but its better off if you learn about our parent board cultures a bit. Vist /pol/ and figure out how to sage and slide threads, go willing we won't need that here. Go to /mlp/ and see what going on in their respective side with all their generals. Let both boards grow an appreciation for what this place is and how not to fuck it up.

Other then that enjoy your stay and look forward to hearing back from our resident new fag in a few months.

>>1668
I haven't been to /pol/ at all - not even briefly for some time now. Feels good fam.

>>1671
I just fish now

>>1672
Gosh... I can't get enough of that Fireax one.

>>1673
Get me the other 2 as separate images and I'll do a group one
