/mlpol/ - My Little Politics

Can we delay it? It's useful right now since it dose bring in low amounts of users, mainly april1stians who are looking for some refrence to Unity day. As we grow some more, it would be wise to remove it after we have some more flow. Imo.

>>25749
this guy seems smart, can we do this?

Ya remove it. It's time to go unnaground, dark and secret.

>>25744
We should definitely be on the search engines. There are a large number of people who were on 4chan mlpol who don't know about this website. If we stay on google, they may find us when they google mlpol out of nostalgia or for the memes, or after they hear one of our users talk about it on 4chan. If we are unlisted, these people won't be able to find us unless they get a link. And that's going to be much harder to spread, maybe even more dangerous. This board is very slow and is at risk of dying. To change that, we need to not be more secretive than we already are.

There's not much of a risk of reddit or normies finding us. Why would they google mlpol? The only people who would want to look us up for now are people who remember the experience on 4chan or are interested in it. And if that changes, we can get off the index in the future.

Nice flag, OP.

I don't think it's going to make much of a difference either way, this place is so low traffic that noone will bother launching shillbots, and anyone willing to google mlpol probably knows about it already.

I voted yes, cause i want more people here. Plus we have active admins, so we can handle bullshit better than 4chan.

>>25749
This is exactly right. If we get the attention of normans, we can get off then. Right now the only people's attention we have are the people who remember us - the people we want.

Also, how exactly are we supposed to fish for users on 4chan if we can't just say that we still exist and they find us by googling us? We'd have to provide a link. Do we really want to be spamming links to mlpol.net on 4chan?

>>25744
A-Atlas-senpai… Wh-what happened to your flag..?

>>25759
joke by one of the mods I'm too lazy to fix

>>25760
>Void walker confirmed
Tell Urza he's a bitch. And to anyone who got the refrence I know it's not Void walker

>>25749
oh that's very nice, did you draw that? :D

(USER WAS GIVEN A MUFFINCAKE FOR HIS EFFORTS AND LOVE)

For what it's worth, I found this place from being linked on one of the other refugee boards, no search engine involved. ("Here's a list of all active /mlpol/ boards" pinned at the top)
I'm thinking that as long as those other boards are indexed, posts there linking this place will still show up in results. So hiding isn't really an option as long as somebody is aware that mlpol is or was a thing.

>>25770
Also, that way if the board dies no one will accidently stumble over our corpses!

>>25781
Let's keep the site listed so we don't have to die

>>25749

I discovered this board a few days ago after I remembered about the glorious time April 1st on /mlpol/ was and Google searching it to see what happened to it. So I think it is important to keep it indexed until another time when we decide to close the metaphorical open border Trump style.

>>25753
Agreed.

Eventually I think we should remove ourselves from Google but for now there's no point. We're too small for normans to give a shit about us, the only thing this would do is hurt our outreach efforts.

>>25744
I wouldn't remove it at all personally. As it stands your plan effectively comes down to creating a new member cutoff point of sorts - and after which it will be very unlikely we'll get any newfags. Newfags are an essential part of any online community because without them things can only stagnate - if not come to a screeching halt completely.

>>25744
>>25788

I think the biggest question is how to we get new people here like 4chan's old /b/ without becoming modern /b/.

>>25788
Somewhat this. Remember, /pol/ started somwhere too, you know. Tried fishing some anons on /pol/ with pic rel, safest route. Wonder how it will help.

>>25790
Horse—–, of course.

>>25791
Fishing trips are always fun. I need more GR15 friendly bait tho

>>25795
If only we could get that with "mlpol" on it. Maybe in place of the Japanese characters

>>25744
Right now our best bet is to keep it indexed. I can't see many normalfags finding the site as it is now, due to just how small we are. The majority of people who are going to find the site right now are either people who are sick of nu/pol/ and hear about it over there, or people like me, who search it up one day after remembering April 1st. We're not at enough of a risk of normie invasion to risk alienating any new members who might actually contribute to the board.

Also what's up with the Email section above Subject?

>>25796
I made it and feel stupid I didn't do this until now…

>>25800
Is that nightmare?
Is that true nightmare?

>>25804
I need more faces from mlpol-tan for greater bait.

>>25753
this

>>25744
Gotta go with 'No' on this one. You can still just pass the link around, right? and it's not like 'mlpol' is really googled by people not already 'in the know' anyways.

>>25800
Nice

>>25814
I voted no because I prefer a slow and steady growth. However it looks 50/50 on the choice so I think it will be down to the mods to decide. It will be them who have to deal with the increase in work.

>>25744
Keep it open to google for now, I assume /mlpol/ died when 4chan shut it down and I just barely found this by learning this place exists from /mlp/. We need to keep this place open to searches if this place is to expand and not die and as for shills, I don't think we have to worry about them for now.

>>25744
The whole thing depends on how easily findable the site is. If you can get here through tangential searches, then it definitely should get unlisted. However, if you need to type mlpol or other very specific things related to this place to get here, then no one undesirable will be able to get here, and the people searching for those things likely already know of this place one way or another.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can only reach websites through nearly unrelated searches once they get popular enough and Google's spider starts getting hits on a site repeatedly. And as far as I'm concerned, this board isn't exactly all that hot.

>>25848
Oh, also, given the very little amount of censorship this board engages in, any normalfag or similar scum who comes here accidentally will not want to stick around with "those neo-nazis who are into bestiality". This isn't a safe space for any of them and never will be, so that's another thing I don't think is a problem with leaving the site to be findable. But hey, maybe I'm being too optimistic.

There are three main ways to obtain exclusivity: restrictiveness/elitism, artificial selection and natural selection.
The first one bases on the idea that people already in a group would rarely allow others into a group on the basis of their qualities, with either existence of the way to accessing the group being secret to all others.
Artificial selection is just that; a group of authority choosing whom to allow in a closed group or whom to disallow in an open one, upon the basis of their own choosing - an example are most username based forums.
Natural selection means that the group has no real authority, whether peer-based one or a governing body which brings in rules about whom can and cannot partake in the group. However the group itself is based around a certain type of content, level of skill or kind of thinking which will by nature exclude people unable to meet the requirements put up by the society.

There is no need to pretend that a chan board can ever be the first one. The only way to efficiently attract people of quality in our situation is the third one. So long as we maintain our ways (which are atrocious to normies) we won't get many people who would decrease the quality here.

>>25864
Help, big need to lower the level of discussion. I do not believe in natural selection and therefor your premise has to be wrong. My search on google is different to my wives and we have the same IP. My wife rarely searches for cartoon horse cock (to my knowledge). Put some hunky Korean peado age pop star in the search criteria and she might pop in.

This is about if we want people popping in from the internet motorway for a Little Shit or a Pret-A-Mangy.

>>25870
Number 5 on my search so all that is needed to advertise is MLPOL without any links. People can then find for themselves.

Disallow jewgle and bing, allow others. The conjecture being that normies ∉ searchengineusers \ { googleusers ∪ bingusers }

>>25881
That make me normal then. Google is my preferred choice. Google UK is my personal set up. Fuck using something with obscure results just because I am too high minded. Google is a cunt of a company but it is amongst a large amount of other cunts and serves me well.

>duckduckgo.com ftw btw
>>25744
Nice dubs. Yes 2 indexing. Have a muffin.

If google is allowed to index this place, all the "hate speech" keywords will be picked up and who knows what google does to such sites and the people that search for it.

>>25891
You misunderstand, the conjecture is that outside of google and bing, there are no normies, not that google only has normies. I.e. if someone finds this site on a searchengine other than google and bing, it's reasonable to say they're open to alternative, non-mainstream ideas. On google, it's a mix.

If our name gets out but isn't on google, that'll filter just about everyone we don't want here along with their spam. People that remember mlpol may put more effort into it or get referred, because despite rules 1&2 the webaddress is floating around in many places already, it's not unfindable. Far from it.

On top of that, if google doesn't index mlpol itself, it will index sites about mlpol. Slow and steady wins the race, as we all know.

>>25902
I can accept the argument that google will be a mixture of people but I do not agree outside of google is not the same. Just as many problematic people on obscure search engines and in some way those people are more likely to get triggered and cause problems. With google you are going to get some helpful allies to combat stuff outside of google you are rolling the dice.
If the decision is to be more open of search engines then excluding google seems to be a mistake. As for how google treats hate speech and content if I search horse cock I get exactly what I want. If I search child porn I get pictures of peado`s and one of Trump. It is impossible to guess what they do. As my normal search is always on pages 3 years and older I doubt they do as much as people make out.

Yes. We need more people. We can ban them if they don't fit in.

>>25744

I had a dream about 2 days ago. I dreamed that /mlpol/ died. It died from too much shitposting.

The site is slowly but surely becoming stagnant. The front page these days moves barely at all, if even. And the posts that are made more often than not lack thought. If we fail to enforce some kind of quality control on the site, we will suffer.

>>25909
No such thing as too much shit posting. This is what I use when shit posting gets too bad on ye olde pol.
>>25907
After Brexit you will have every fucker that wanted free health and welfare. Lets see how many more people you want then.

Is this post shit enough or should I put more effort into it?

At this point I believe that death by stagnation is more likely than death by share blue infestation.

>>25919
This.
We need to get moar posters just to maintain the few we have now.

>>25929
Just got banned for getting pissed off with mummy poster and giving them some real granny porn to look at. 4chan wont ban shit posters but hot on the granny sex pics. I hope mlpol will be less hard on my tantrum porn postings.

>>25930
Posting granny porn is not only allowed but is it encouraged

>>25930

on a sidenote i want to mention that we are lacking both quantity and quality of porn postings. centralizing porn to single threads had turned out to be not of much value.

>>25933
What would you change?

>>25933
Start posting more porn then it's not like we've been told we can only post porn in that thread hans

>>25932
Have some admin to do but after that I will be changing IP and going for a nice pic on /pol/ if this and a secondary ban for ban avoidance. It will help with my collection of the golden 15.

>>25936
This pic

>>25937
we welcome you to munchkin land

>>25939
DING DONG!

>>25942
Bed ways best ways now but just for a last SPLIT second here is the offending post.

>>25952
You made the public ban list! Not all of my bans have.
