What level of interest is there for a weapons and firearms focused board? A /mlk/, if you will.
Also, is there any interest for other topics like history?
The pony-only board idea ended up at 50% in favor and 50% against, so that is another idea which may be brought back.
My only concern is glowniggers more easily keeping track of our power levels. Esp. for those who make their own equipment and accessories.
Is such a thing a valid concern?
Definitely interested in gunposting, although my idea was /kx/, for double the danger.
Ponies of course should be present on all boards.
>>7251You can assume glowniggers are watching at all times, but that shouldn't stop us from enjoying ourselves, should it? We can't let glowniggers rule us with fear and not do/post things because they might be watching.
Just post the same way you'd normally post on /k/, except with ponies. So long as you don't post anything personally incriminating it shouldn't be a problem.
>>7251This. There are already other chans featuring a weapons board.
Creating one here is to give ammo to the glowniggers not to mention fedposting and associated drama.
I say it is better to let it pass.
>>7253>other chansI don't want to go to other chans. I want to do it here, with this community.
We are /mlpol/. We're supposed to be the best. We don't fear feds.
>>7254>We are /mlpol/. We're supposed to be the best. We don't fear feds.Nice try stocking pride and boldness, but, the very possible idea of to have another abandoned board plus the fed drama does not justify the trouble.
>>7255What can the feds do to a board about perfectly legal gun ownership, perfectly legal 3D printing, and perfectly legal talk of shooting things that are perfectly legal to shoot?
What's the worst that can happen?
>>7255It wouldn't be abandoned if we used it, which I intend to.
>fed dramaWhat are you even talking about? It's already against the rules to post illegal things. It's not like this would be any different.
>>7256There's nothing wrong with gunposting, even schizo-fueled /kx/ gunposting wouldn't cause a major detriment.
What is all this shit of trying to shuffle boards?
Why not shuffle your home first?
- Pony blue board
- Bump-locking threads
- Weapons board
Why these faggots can't be pleased with things like they are?
I sense feminine minds in the background trying to impose their worldview. Fuck that.
Leave /mlpol/ as it is.
>>7259I like weapons. Why can't we have a place for weapons?
>trying to impose their worldviewThat weapons are cool and worth talking about? Why not?
>>7259Goddammit Anon, not even my relentless paranoia can offset your delirium.
>>7259>I sense feminine minds in the background trying to impose their worldview.It matches the profile.
Never satisfied, moving things around... I wonder what will be the next thing they will come by.
>>7251>My only concern is glowniggers more easily keeping track of our power levels.>Is such a thing a valid concern?It is pretty much.
I don't know if the faggots bringing the proposal are retarded legit anons or glowniggers, but what I know this is the worst time to make a /k/ board. Anons with a functional brain should know better.
>>7263You insist you're right and insist we should all know better than to disagree with you, and you clearly don't think highly of those who disagree with you, but I'm not hearing any arguments for your stance.
Reminds me of the libtard. No arguments, just shame-flinging, speaking with the tone of wannabe authority.
>>7262You always complain when people talk about changes, but you never say a word about the dozens of changes that have been made without any discussion or user input.
And this time it isn't even a regular user starting the conversation. It's a literal admin. Are you implying that the admin is trying to subvert the site by daring to ask for your opinion about something before making a change?
How can you be this paranoid about meta conversations on the designated meta board?
>>7263>I don't know if the faggots bringing the proposal are retarded legit anons or glowniggersIt's a literal admin, ffs.
>this is the worst time to make a /k/ boardCompared to what? What would have been a better time, and why?
Overall, I think gunposting is a healthy thing to have here, although I'm not sure about a single dedicated gun board.
It's not for fear of glowniggers, fedposting, or any of that stuff, but for the thought that we might not have the userbase/energy to fill it up. (Which is also why I think /kx/ would be more appropriate, but that's just my opinion)
And while I'd normally be an advocate for "Build it, and people will come" approaches, perhaps some testing phases could be beneficial. So far, I've been able to evaluate that there are at least ~5 users who would post to the gun board on at least a weekly basis; 5 users is arguably more than enough for a whole board by alt-chan standards, but it's questionable if they'd stick around after the initial content burst. Perhaps those users could organize a general on /sp/ to prove that they have the necessary commitment to create a board culture. If the general continues to generate memes and conversations after a couple months, it could prove itself to be worthy of a trial board.
If we de make /mlk/, and not make gunposters share their space with any other community, I would say that it should be a board without poster IDs or flags; and that it should have a bump limit of 300 (which is normal for slower boards on 4chan), to promote refreshing of discussions, that way the board won't stagnate into 3-4 generals and new threads will be made periodically.
Imo, I feel like we as an alt-chan have potential to have a much larger userbase and could accommodate multiple new boards if we tried. I'm personally a fan of bringing back /cock/, /vint/, /fitlit/ (I know that discussion was lost to /ub/, but still), /can/, /mo/, /fap/, and more, with the model of hybrid boards ensuring that each board has fresh content, although perhaps that shit sailed back in 2017...
Still, if we used generals on /sp/ to test for interest, perhaps all of those dreams could come true one day. It's just something to think to think about.
>>7267>I don't know if the faggots bringing the proposal are retarded legit anons or glowniggers>It's a literal admin, ffs.You're right, but that idea comes from others anons making noise in the background.
May the Admin be onboard with them or he is just trying to please them; it is not a good idea at all for reasons already mentioned above.
>>7270So far the reasons I'm seeing are:
>1. Nobody would use it (debatable but legit)>2. Feds would somehow use it to harn the site (how?)Personally, I think it's still worth a shot.
>comes from others anonsIt comes from other Anons, yes. That's not necessarily a bad thing.
>>7310You think guns are gay?
What, do they look like dicks to you? Do you see dicks everywhere you look?
>>7269>perhaps some testing phases could be beneficial.I think this option is worth exploring.
If people don't like it, we could always just undo it.
