Instead of outright deletion from a sub, have a "kick" option to move posts to v/whatever

submitted by Antiliberalsociety to TalkDev 3.9 yearsMay 24, 2021 20:48:42 ago (+11/-0)     (TalkDev)*

This would be for off topic/troll posts that might have a good point or meaning, but have little to do with the intended purpose of the sub. I can see deleting spam or malicious trolling, but not every case warrants it. I'm starting to see posting that appears to be trying to goad mods into deleting them, without coming off as too offensive or spammy, so as to paint them as censor happy.

For those that might be confused, this would be an added option, not in lieu of deleting.

Why not just hire AOU to determine where every post should be assigned?

I'm talking about sub owners, not admins. v/whatever is a general sub where anything goes, I never said owners should pick the sub they kick to.

4chan does it, and it worked well enough there. Was one of the big features of Ruqqus too, until some trannies in the discord convinced the admins to neuter it.

More options just means more things people can complain about. Do you have a specific example where this would be better than just leaving the post up?

Babylonbee links in a news sub for starters. It might be good comedy, but not for an actual news sub.

That’s a fair use case. I’m not certain I see the potential for whinging/abuse outweighing the positives though. So it’s posted in news... so what? How much better will Voat be if the babylonbee link gets moved? It won’t be. And would searchvoat still be able to retrieve it?

It robs subversives of the opportunity to gaslight censorship

No, it doesn’t. That type will still moan, and it won’t make your subverses any better or worse. Were you not around for Amalek and Insanegoat?

This is just how free speech sites go, it's always a battle keeping it free. V1 had a notorious troll named Sanegoat who lived to undermine the site, like he literally dedicated his entire online existence to it. Bot farming was banned because of him, he'd make subs and use his alts to upvote eachother, then you'd see on the front page, posts bashing Voat with over 100 upvotes.

My suggestion here is a way of keeping subs from a subtle, slow rot system of shitting up the place.

Arguing has been a way of life since the dawn of time. We present our facts, logic, and debate them in a free speech environment. The only ones against this are the kikes and their pets. They aren't winning until free speech is stifled.

It happens everywhere, I see it at work all the time. Jew Media is to blame.

The level of retardation in your logic is ruqqus tier in itself. I'm not talking about yanking, I'm talking about adding another option so people don't get labled as ban happy, like yourself. Sub owners should be able to remove without having to delete.

Because trolls like dial exist on an army of alts trying to undermine free speech websites, actual ones not the ones just claiming to be.

Why do you, a mod with an already horrible reputation for banning people, put the users over the subs they post to? Your failed logic just blows my mind.

You shit talk Ruqqus then act like the discord cabal by laughing at your own comments as if it makes you more right.

I see now the reason of your failed logic, you're literally incapable of an honest debate without trololololing.

1. Your ad hominem exposes your reddit tier troll

2. You don't have to like it, but you made a failed comparison to Ruqqus as if that site has any bearing on this one. There's literally nothing bad that could come of this added option.

3. Your projection of reputation is indicative of said troll, I was wasn't talking about points. You have a history of acting like the same admins that banned your ass, and it would appear you're out for revenge or some shit.

You really don't have any valid points, do you...

That's been around a lot longer than that kiked website. It's interesting your fixation on it, though. Your mind is stuck in that box, I wonder why...

You literally can't even come up with one good reason why this wouldn't work.
