Basically it means a return to the Fasces' reign, banning everyone you don't like and /mlpol/ reduced to 12/20 posts every 24 hours.

>It boils down to they don't lurk as in there is no assimilation to our imageboard culture.
I think this is one of the vulnerabilities we've unwittingly created for ourselves. /pol/ itself has always been vulnerable to newfags, because newfags refuse to lurk since they want to participate in current events as soon as it starts. For /mlpol/, it's a combination of that and the fact that as the board ran into slower times in the first half of its existence some Anons got a bit too desperate for new users and started accepting newfags without expecting them to lurk, as well as the fact that we were a new board and thus everyone was a "newfag". At first, it wasn't that bad because the new posters generally came from 4chan, but as the site lived on it became evident that some of the newfags had never used 4chan in their lives, and they brought their off-site habits with them to the board.
/mlpol/ was supposed to be a bastion of old imageboard culture, free of the reddit/Twitter/Facebook sewage that infested the parent boards, but lately it feels like it hasn't been living up to that.

All of you are smart enough to know that when the precedent by one act, it will be done again. That's why having reasonably clear and articulated standards is essential.

I'm not a fan of phrasing the rule as if the problem is newfaggotry. That is not the problem, and we want newfags.

To me, the most common attribute of excessive faggotry is making everything personal. Too many first-person pronouns in their posts, and too many personal attacks of other posters. I don't mean blog posting. Blog posting doesn't bother me. It's haughtiness, followed by a string of ad hominin attacks that's disruptive and completely shits up threads

In terms of how it would be implemented, yes, the system of incremental warnings and bans mentioned there is the best way to go about it, I think.

But I want to articulate the behavior in such a way that the next time it's applied, there is some standard to point to, and say "this is acceptable and this isn't"

This is part of his routine. He wants people to believe that there are multiple anons posting shitty faceberg memes in his meme-dump threads in an effort to astroturf actual demand for the shitty content he posts. If you go through his threads, you can actually observe instances of him replying to himself in order to fake thread engagement. He's even been called out on it multiple times and he still does it. He is literally that autistic.

I understand what you're saying for clarity.
The ideal is that newfags (and all lasting visitors) become oldfags.
At least try to reach being an oldfag.
Not pushing this place to become like other places.
It's to prevent hyper-nu-cancer from inching in.

Basically, I think we need to define what a "newfag" is, what an "oldfag" is, and what "hyper-nu-cancer" is

As stated before, to me, the most common symptom of posting-I-don't-like is a rejection of anonymity for a strong assertion of self-identity. Not just any rejection of anonymity - "Business Dog" does not bother me. It's bad when the assertion of self-identity is arrogant and superior. And especially, when there is an attempt by the one asserting a superior self-identity to drag anonymous users out of their anonymity, and give them some undesired identity. And then further to derail discussion with personal attacks and personal self-aggrandizement.

Dude, I didn't take a screenshot foe every time an IP was blocked and the reason explaining why. To be fair with the janny, half of the blocks were for pornography.

How do you even know when other poster's IPs are blocked? Do you have the banlogs?
99.9% of bans are for bots and raiders.

Because when you use VPN or Tor (in which IPs are shared among a lot of people), if the IP was banned by /mlpol/, when you attempt to post you are welcomed with a message informing you why and when the ban will end.

>why don't we just ban obviously obnoxious faggot posters when they are obviously being obnoxious faggots without caring whether there is a written rule about it?
The reason is simple. Because not every onboxious faggot poster is one that you are thinking of right now, and any such rule is going to be applied more broadly than just to the posters you are thinking of right now. It's helpful to have some kind of objective rule to point to so that users can be told "stop fucking doing that or we will ban you."

There's another reason. As this rule would be applied to actual users of the website - that is to say, those who actually wish to engage in discussion - a part of its function is corrective. Just telling an autistic person "stop being a newfag or will ban you" tells him nothing about what he did wrong or what behavior needs to be changed to fit in. It's better to give specific directions and feedback as to how exactly to stop being an excessive faggot.

I've been here the whole time, and I've been able to observe the quantity of posting as it increased and decreased. The absence of /pol/ack posting you mention isn't the result of bans, because if it were it would have been noticable by the abrupt absence of certain posters.

For what I saw bans were mostly because the posters were rude (nigger, faggot, kys, etc), or because they were calling out other anons with names such a jew or shill or fed.

You know, all this aside, you're claiming that the OP is trying to "return to" this supposed era of mass-banning that only you know about, when at face value there wasn't any sort of policy change to leave that era.
Mods have, for as long as we know, almost never banned anyone but overt raiders and bots. The fact that we're even having this conversation is proof that they don't discipline people for simply shitposting, no matter how obnoxious it is. You're claims that changing this status quo would mean a return to an era of mass-banning is self-defeating.

I was banned just for posting a meme in the Flat Earth bread twice or more times I believe, and actually I'm not sure because I was switching IPs while I didn't know I was banned. Then accused of ban evasion many times, but I didn't know.

You bump it with redundant images and low-rez jpegs that were already posted, or grainy image macros taken from Facebook in a sloppy attempt to bait posters into engaging you in arguments that were already had earlier in the thread.
That's spam. It's hardly different than a "/pol/ BTFO" thread.

When I reverse image search them, they show up on the flat earth Facebook page, full of memes of the same quality.
But do share, if not Facebook, where do you get your memes? What site are you getting these from?

>"Everypony" implies multiple people. You are trying to make it look like more than one person was banned, when in reality it was just you posting from different IPs.

Half of them still showed up on reverse image search.
Also you still didn't answer the question.

So are you saying that it wasn't multiple people banned, and was instead only you?

He doesn't even know what the word "gaslighting" means, even though it's been explained to him before.

>To me, the most common attribute of excessive faggotry is making everything personal. Too many first-person pronouns in their posts, and too many personal attacks of other posters.
So, I dunno if I understood this correctly. But if you mean to say that shit flinging should become a bannable offense. It should first make it to the rules. In fact, it should be put under the same scrutiny as anything on this thread. Poners can be confident the staff will handle this with the same caution it has handled this thread thus far.

This sounds to me like a commie rationalization of your basic intention: banish that anon because he will not fold to our wishes. Kinda a mutation of the liberal hivemind.
>>8897
And this is a naked attempt to use law enforcement to do the dirty work for ya. What about if you mind your business and leave the rest alone?

BTW, in the threads pointed at >>8859 I said a few times that you faggots are killing /mlpol/ when you bring forward drama and division. Your answer has always been derision and outright dismissal, those threads don't lie. Just saying.
