Hey guys, there's a few concerns which need to be addressed at v/qrv which I'd like to bring attention to.
@8bit-, i hope you can address this...
I'd first like to bring your attention to @srayzie's post about one of your mods creating a CCP farming channel with the nick @breadbox. I don't see a reply from him yet, but it's still early... his last post 9 days ago really doesn't give me hope. So why is he a mod?
@NeonReolt brought my attention to v/qrv using v/theawakening mods. I didn't believe him at first, being a little biased about prior blog posts horribly researched and posted. Im not positive how I found this post, about your other mod @PenShitlord being an older mod from theawakening who announced the censorship lift but he also announced their home on 8ch, where they would have more freedoms...just not to vote, basically turning his back on the already created v/greatawakening which he had no sway over. He last posted 6 days ago, please remind me why he's a mod? I thought "active mods who provided leadership" were needed and @srayzie just wasn't one of them, although she mods and posts at both v/greatawakening and v/pizzagate while keeping it fresh and relevant.
This morning, a mod pissed at their non-inclusion outed your outside "mod" chats. I LOVE that they now claim they love the anonymity, but announced a secret hillary-like server being used to communicate with other mods not currently mods. I'll admit that this one post made me trust @8bit-, due to his denouncement of money, but immediately distrusted those he surrounds himself with, none of which are voat users. Do you think the refugees should run the European parliament just cause they moved there? Did 8ch like it when these refugees forced their way on the boards like it was the start of summer vacation?
@8bit-, I ask that you consider both @Crensch and @KosherHiveKicker as mods to help remove the farming posts/comments and better guide new users. They are seasoned veterans in anti-bullshit and have no skin in the Q game, but have a deep respect for this site and free speech. I've reached out to both before recommending them to see if they would evwn consider it, both have replied yes. There is one other highly respected individual I reached out to, but he wasn't available by the time i posted this. If he replies with interest, I'm sure the board will erupt with others willing to recommend the user.
I also think anonymity is broken unless you can get ID's enabled. I believe some shills are using this anonymity to reply to themselves. I can usually tell cause there aren't any upvotes. Maybe Crensch or Kosher can consult.
For all newbies who are easily offended by profanity, or have kids, please consider reading this blog post on using browser plugins to alter the profanity to friendlier terms. This allows you to view the web with a filter while we call each other niggerfaggots and cum guzzling sheiklesteins (words to add to your filters!) Feel free to message me if you have questions on usage.
For others, you can also introduce MOAR profanity with the plugins! absolutely becomes abso-fucking-lutely! (it goes both ways)
Lastly, for those who don't use the profanity filter. You are a seasoned goat.

at this point of time, does it actually matter who mods QRV? their mod logs, all three of them, are totally empty. its full chan culture, no moderation whatsoever, full transparency.
as i see it, these three Q-subs are attractive to different audience.
/TA has the heavy reddit censor mode which subsided quite a bit after goats called them out. people who easily feel offended, dont want to stumble upon spam, and need a mod to protect them from what triggers them, will feel well there.
/QRV has the chan loseness. the anonymity on QRV annoyed me at first but within a day, i found some of its benefits. even without being mods, old goats can teach the mods and users how to use their votes to keep the spam in check.
/GA is a voat sub with a mild mod culture, it seems to remove only double posts and off-topics.
does it matter that some of the heavy censor reddit crew now manage a sub with chan culture?
mods are not leaders but stewards of a sub. servants, to be totally clear.
i find this a gorgeous social experiment. our job is to flex our discernment muscels, call out the BS, and let people choose themselves.
