How do we deal with the /pol/ infiltration?

We must execute the final solution to the /pol/ish problem.

It's simple, we kill the board, man.

This board has been besieged by all sides since day one.
An interwar/WW2 general would clear up a lot of the "what if hitler did X" and holocaust threads that shit up the catalog every day.

>muh /pol/ boogeyman
back to /leftypol/

remove humanities
remove race topics
ban shitposter

stop talking about /pol/ all the time you fucking tsundere fangirls

>other meta thread talking about /leftypol/ gets deleted in 0.0004 seconds
>this one stay up

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm really synthesizes the sympathies

>complains about someone using a boogeyman
>uses an even smaller and more irrelevant boogeyman

The problem isn't a "/pol/ infiltration". The biggest problem of this board is this rule right here
>Veeky Forums is not /pol/, and Global Rule #3 is in effect. Do not try to treat this board as /pol/ with dates. Blatant racism and trolling will not be tolerated.
This has to be the stupidest rule ever. What's the point of making a history board if we aren't allowed to discuss controversial topics? History isn't a big sterile retarded safe space. If we can't answer and discuss the more challenging aspects of culture, then what's even the point? Another thing that bothers me is how arrogantly worded it is. How exactly do the mods/users determine what is "racist" (a buzzword) or not? Again, history is contains countless of complex issues, so what's the point of trying to enforce this and feigning the illusion that in-depth discussion is welcome at the same time?

Shut the fuck up you cuck. Go back to your bull and suck the semen out of your wife (male)'s boypussy.

...

There aren't any boards left that aren't infested by /pol/ at this point.

Fuck off you neo-nazi retard.

That rule isn't only for Veeky Forums btw
Global rule #3:
You will not post any of the following outside of /b/: Trolls, flames, racism, off-topic replies, uncalled for catchphrases, macro image replies, indecipherable text (example: "lol u tk him 2da bar|?"), anthropomorphic ("furry") or grotesque ("guro") images, post number GETs ("dubs"), or loli/shota pornography.

>people say nigger
God all these boards are infested by /pol/

>implying there aren't daily communism threads
I don't mind retarded commies having a thread or two, the problem is that they keep complaining about Veeky Forums not being a left wing safe space.

>People shitpost about Jews and politics in every fucking thread even when they aren't relevant

Yeah, they are.

No, it's more like
>people talking about the bell curve on a music board

>indecipherable text (example: "lol u tk him 2da bar|?")
cuneiform = banned

>anthropomorphic ("furry")
egyptian gods = banned

>grotesque ("guro") images
war = banned

>loli/shota pornography
ancient greece = banned

Fucking mods.

>WW2 general
>Marxism general
There, I solved all issues on Veeky Forums

>no africa general
GG&S and MUH ZEBRAS get daily threads also.

Word filters.

Lol

/pol/ is getting btfo in pretty much every thread they post in but it's still annoying. Just part of being on a board full of social outcasts I guess

We don't.

The owner doesn't give a shit. The mods don't give a shit. There is no indication that anything is ever going to be done to enforce these particular rules. This is what they want this site to be. It's all /pol/ now. Except maybe the porn boards.

There are multiple threads every day that are entirely about current politics or solely about political abstractions. Completely ignoring the 25-year rule. I'm not even counting the thinly-veiled ones that make some mention about history but are really only about the same 3 political topics anyway.

The issue isn't controversy. The issue is the blatant spamming of off-topic threads and posts.

>Word filters.
I like this idea. It's classic Veeky Forums, discourages people without suppressing their speech outright, and is less labor-intensive for mods than deleting posts/threads one by one.

>deleting threads for free is labor intensive
ok

Removing off-topic threads isn't a suppression of speech.

I don't even report most of the threads I know are not really Veeky Forums-related, specifically because I believe wide latitude should be given. But latitude isn't the same as allowing things which are expressly forbidden by the rules. Ex.: there was a thread not long ago asking what the best means forwarde on gun control is. Had nothing to do with white nationalism or pepe or "we wuz" or any of the other shit that gets spammed here constantly. But it was blatantly and specifically a political and not a historical thread.

Not that I don't think that perpetual bell curve threads are Veeky Forums-related (they're not), but surely everyone can agree that that's specifically a /pol/, and not a Veeky Forums concern.

Need janitors to try and enforce the rules about modern politics or their contemporary consequences/consider banning holocaust threads and alt history threads.

Need to consider making humanities their own board or just making a board for political philosophy (other than /pol/ because they clearly don't want to use that)

A lot of this could just be circumvented if people went to /pol/ and /leftypol/ to circlejerk their ideologies. But their shitty threads and inability to rationally discuss a subject fucked up their board and now they're doing it here too. This needs to stop.

>controversial topics
>>>/2006/

I don't understand your non-sequitur, kiddo

How do we deal with both /pol/ and /leftypol/ infiltration?

Ok I'll spell it out for you. If you think that holocaust denial or saying the word nigger or any of the other bullshit that goes on in this fucking website is at all controversial then you need to fuck off to 2006. I understand you were probably about 5 at the time but no one cares about it at all besides newfriends and teenagers.

I like some of /pol/s work. HWNDU was the best shit in years but its not controversial its boring. Same as the fucking lgbt spam. I want to read and discuss history not fucking racebait constantly

Honestly, as shit as the /pol/tards are, I find the /int/ crowd even worse. They have 0 ability to discuss anything at all, and evey thread they infest turns into muh cuntry better dan ur cuntry!

How do we deal with /lgbt/ infiltration?
/po/ and /lgbt/ all need to go.

Ignore their shit and focus on quality posts. That's all we need

Sir Arthur Harris already provided the answer

>Removing off-topic threads isn't a suppression of speech.

t. mouth breathing retard

True. In fact there's very little reason why this board doesn't allow generals.

You're suppose to promote decent discussion yet don't allow people to use the site in such a way it actually becomes possible? It won't turn into the shitshow /v/ was because frankly I doubt there's a lot of people on Veeky Forums.

this, mods are anti-intellectuals

Controversial and complex issues throughout all of history shouldn't be condensed or equated to saying naughty words on the internet. Regardless, there do, in fact, happen to be many people who find these greater topics to be more controversial, despite your strange idea that you think the idea of taboo subjects was normalized or vanquished in some arbitrary year. This is evidenced by many things, such as the rule being in place in the first place (if nobody is bothered, why is it a rule?), and the angry reactions here (not even accounting for normal people outside of this website, where taboo topics are even more pressing and frequent as time goes on), and not forgetting your own response (you speak of how nobody should care about certain topics, but at the same time you obviously cared enough to write a huge, nonsensical and angry rant). Your entire position seems to be "people have said purposely racist things online, therefore we can't discuss those things", and this is obvious and blatant by how hard you're trying to reference and signal to /pol/. People like you make me sick. Nobody is interested in seeing you purposely dumb-down discussions here because you are too braindead and sensitive to deal with them.

Oh, and another thing. You accused me of being 5 a decade ago. Well, you sound like an infant right now. At least mentally.

What's the difference?

Autoban anyone who has posted on /pol/, /b/ and /r9k/ during the last 48 hours
Autoban phoneposters

Not that user but you have specific boards for off-topic bullshit
Use those you fucking retard

Look mate reading about how the holocause isn't real 5 times a day for years and calling black people niggers isn't anything.

Its boring. You're boring. Now go back to your safe space/ containment board

>Your entire position seems to be "people have said purposely racist things online, therefore we can't discuss those things"
Where? you fucking idiot

>sensitive to deal with them.
Yeah righto mate. Top stuff

Oh. How old are you then?

Do it again, bomber Harris.

I nominate a cross-board cooldown. 2 hours at least. Can't post on one and then launch into the other. Yeah, you could totally dynamic IP that shit, but it might stop some of the problem.

Why are phoneposters considered taboo?

What if I want to take a shit and read/respond to Veeky Forums threads?

it's more equivalent to a war for the lands of an ailing empire in the midst of a succession crisis (moot transferring power to japmoot)

Fuck that. I browse loads of different boards, that would ruin the site even more.

Just for Veeky Forums and /pol/. Everyone else can come and go as they please.

IDflagging people as having posted on /pol/ in the last 2 hours might also be a good idea, as it would probably identify the stormweenies. In theory it could also be used to 'lock' /pol/ out of places, but that would make them cry about muh safe space so that's probably not the go

Veeky Forums is a place for teenage members to shit post on their mommy's iPhone, all you people expecting a return to 2010 norms where people still wrote long winded posts that were good with a keyboard simply need to make your peace and move on to greener pastures.

giving a statistic without direct source is a bannable offense, if not explicitly mentioned to be speculation

A cooldown is the best solution. I don't get why they haven't implemented it

I have literally never seen that complaint

These
Also the "only whites should be gun owners" and "(((gun control)))" I see on /k/
A few days ago I literally saw some of them wanting a fourth reich, the fucking weapons board which should be conservative libertarian (like me) if they want to keep their hobby

We all know who the actual culprit is though

>(like me)
You're not fooling anyone, you anti white faggot

Why do leftists cucks like you want a safespace?

L I K E
C L O C K W O R K

Why do you leftist shills want a safespace though?

Heil Hitler

Why can't you leftists subhumans justify the need for an anti white safespace?

Hitler was right, all non-Germans are subhumans and not Aryan, 14/88 fuck niggers

Why do leftists want a safespace?

The enernal anglo strikes again

Why do retards like you think that we want safespaces or are leftist
You sound suspiciously like an sjw

It's not impossible for it to happen again, we just need someone who's dedicated like this user.

>says the faggot who wants to ban anyone who speaks against your sjw shit

this

...

>you sjw shit

How many times do we have to tell you? We are not your liberal boogeyman. I've been laughing at nigger jokes for the last decade on here. You're not edgy, you're not saving the world from sjws, you're just shitposting endlessly on a board of people that actually want to talk about history without people screaming KIKE!!NIGGER!?!SJW in their ear. We've heard all your jokes and they aren't funny anymore. Now get out of the way so I can harvest fresh Veeky Forums memes.

>this is what anti white cucks are trying to propagandise their raid as
You leftists are pathetic

There are no "greener pastures". The whole internet has collapsed into this, and you are all biting down at the ramifications.

If we don't make a stand here, there will be no place to stand.

I summon the powers of Slavoj Zizek! I rebuke the garbage can of ideology you cannot stop eating from! Be free!

Never really understood this myself either. Speaking from experience though, phone posters have the ability to shitpost at a better rate than most since they can manipulate their cell service to get a different IP.

Here is how I pump out 3 shit threads (like this one) in less than 10 seconds:

>post thread on wifi
>disable wifi, post thread on LTE
>disable LTE, post thread on 4G
>disable 4G, wait 30 seconds, reenable and repeat with new IP

It's chaos.

>Sniff
>gulag
>pick nose

Can't wait until the ISPs crack down on cellular dynamic IP ranges and you kiddies won't be able to change your IP by resetting your phone's router anymore. Will solve all the shitposting on Veeky Forums.

Why on Earth would they care about that?

Because IPv4 is running out of free addresses. It's not about you, or your shitposting, just that there's not enough addresses to give every single kid in America half a dozen to switch between and shitpost with to their heart's content.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4_address_exhaustion

How does switching addressess deplete addresses when the address you just vacated will get realocated?

Same shit on /gif/ with everyone shitting on niggers/jews/whatever racist term available on Veeky Forums - on threads where people are supposed to wank, not being wankers

The thing about Veeky Forums is not that it is supposedly filled with hardcore leftists (they do exist to some extent) but that many want it to simply be a board about a hobby and nothing more, a Veeky Forums with more armor threads.
They just want "epic" memes, coloring maps, role-playing and treat history as nothing more than source material for their fantasies. That's why they lash out against more serious topics, controversial subjects and generally against things that may have an impact on the real world. Not because they're "Nazi" or "Commie" (most of the time they aren't) but because it's about the real things they desperately want to get away from. (ew, icky stuff!!! gback2whatever)

It's also because discussing these subjects actually requires some knowledge of history, a bit of research, providing sources and making good arguments.
So basically effort, but we don't like effort here, just "comfy" fun stuff.
I'm sorry but history isn't just muh toy soldiers and RPGs, it's a also about unpleasant stuff.

Sounds about right.

Leftypol is raiding, and I'm going to ruin your sjw threads until they stop

what the fuck does that have to do with his post? the only thing your reply does is announce you a you doing is identifying yourself as an edgy /pol/ack who memes about "le epic helicopter man XD"

>what the fuck does that have to do with his post? the only thing your reply does is announce you a you doing is identifying yourself as an edgy /pol/ack who memes about "le epic helicopter man XD"
Why are you mad that people who aren't an anti white cuck like you?

By not fucking responding to their bait and reporting it.

>Why are you mad that people who aren't an anti white cuck like you?
bad bait.
but, in the case it's not, and you really are a /pol/cuck, it would help you to look up the terms "non-sequitur" and "ad-hominem", because one day someone in real life, not in your internet safespace, people will call you out on your venomous autistic rants totally unrelated to the subject at hand.

>not being an anti white faggot means you are "venomous"
This is what leftypol shills actually believe

Ban race topics. Put humanities in Veeky Forums.

history is more then ethnicity, nazi germany, how bad is communism and what are "x" borders

this board was good for it's first three months but I would be fine with it being deleted now.

Like every other (good) board did
>report
>hide
>move on

Not failing for the bait or ever debating their retarded threads are required for those to work, of course . Keep in mind that discussions about WW2 are very common around here, so is a no brainer that /pol/ will always talk shit shit once in a while. The important part is to not let it fall in standards, getting deep on scapegoats, falseflag, retarted memes and such, in similar fashion to what happened to /v/, /tv/ and other ruined boards.

All in all, set the bars high and ignore nazi tards.

I agree, to a degree. The simple fact of the matter is that it's a necessary protection against /pol/. If we get rid of this rule, then sure, we get to discuss it, but the /pol/ flood will destroy much of the genuine conversation. We have this rule to safeguard the rest of the board.

The reason these metathreads are absolute ass on every board is that they're about what the mods can do for the board rather than what you can do for the board.

the site has clearly shown in the past 6 years that the majority of people lack the inability to ignore bait, shitpost and just general retarded posts on all boards of moderate interest.

Not your safespace, you SJW faggot

It's like the only arguments you know are logical fallacies. Now you're strawmanning. Read pic related definition of "venomous." It defines well you utter butthurt as you describe your imaginary persecutors.
