Would you support open registration if we added 10 more mods?

[Joe Budden]

Depends on who are the mods. If I can be a mod, then sure.


An open, more anonymous section might actually work well in that it would drive a lot of traffic with the problem being all the costs and such that such would entail and would be great as a means of allowing black people, especially black men, to get shyt off their chest (complain about their day and seek advice) without feeling judged.

The creation of a "rookie" board would be cool as well and would entail less changes. The way this board is set-up is very nice and there are whole sections that exist on their own to the point that they might as well be separate boards, with the only thing limiting them being traffic. I used to get confused as to why some sections acted as autonomous entities but it is easy to see how. A rookie board could be used, with only notable posters being let out. Again though, the issue of costs and time is of concern. The return on investment would be a problem. Advertisers regard these boards as a whole, not the sections as a part (I assume) and he'd have to pull some slick shyt like the ***** admins and create a separate but connected site like 4channel. Combined with verification, that would be nice but the problem with skin verification is that somehow, someone will misconstrue that as eliciting pictures and somehow turn something innocent into something pernicious.
Something that uses the vichan software (like 8chan) that allows you to create your own moderated subsection would be good but it would have to regulated hard for obvious reasons.

Yes, I've been thinking about this off and on so excuse my rambling.

This website used to bring in almost 10k a month in ad revenue. Back then we were spoiled.

Want the chili to go back to that.

I feel like the mods do a great job of keeping fukkery in check already.

I’m not asking to be a mod, but a lot of this site’s fukk shyt wouldn’t be happening under my regime, just saying.

They do actually. They deserve a lot of credit for that. The fact that they haven't banned or bushed me yet is a testament to their endless patience as well.
And I did not the know that part. I do wonder what happened. Is it the lack of fukkery? I see a lot of fukkery when looking at old posts.

Low key the Ferguson riots changed this site forever. Co-owner @cook being white was always a meme on here. It was funny and light hearted. After the giant Ferguson thread and how he handled things, this place kinda fell off. He basically bushed the Ferguson thread and he felt we were getting too “radical”

Cook wanted this to be a forum for everyone and he would hide certain fukkery. He created a private forum for all race threads to go to die. It was the bushes before the bushes.

However cook was here on a day to day basis chopping it up with us tho. He kept us updated and he always responded quick. Brooklyn was more low key.

When cook left it was just brook and he wasn’t really a day to day guy. Once registration closed things fell off.

If this was 2014 Coli she would’ve been on here. I had so many famous people on here on god!

I think it’s the opposite. I think older posters are unwilling to let go of the status quo.

When we had an influx of new posters they rebelled against the ideas of OG posters and weren’t able to be controlled. It was exciting to see actually.

Lol in March 2022 when I finally got my posting privileges, I was scared to say anything lmao. I kept my head down, was scared to announce myself as a newbie, was extremely docile and I did everything I could not to draw attention to myself.

I was scared of all of you except @Cereal_Bowl_Assassin who I asked for help about how to navigate this forum.

Today, I’m a confident, outgoing poster who has even had a couple of ‘right of passage’ beefs. Tell me you’re proud of me.

I think Nicole said they got full blown tutorials on reddit for how to fake that shyt now.

this is why you need trusted mods with good instincts.

Yeah, im surprised dudes here still go by hand pics when they can be bought.

Also, dont know if moderation is possible, cause you have trolls, but you have posters who support those trolls, cause they too afraid to say what they really want to say.

You also have posters who know how to teeter the line so they can get away with slipping in the same bs the trolls spew in without it being detected or being called out on it.

the coli doesn’t really need more mods. the wolves do a good job keeping other posters in check.

Negs, 1 stars, summerjam screen etc.

I’m very proud of you for seeing the good in us and deciding to stay. You’ve been one of the best newcomers so far. Possibly rookie of the year.

These methods won’t work on new posters.

As long as they have to verify. Some breh said we should have open registration like LSA. I'm thinking no, they have KKK members posting over there.

Thank you love. I’m humbled but I’m definitely not rookie of the year- possibly top 5 though
