Important Instructions on Combatting Shit Posts, Porn and Shill groups
This is an important posts that should be read by everyone that is here for the right reasons. Us GreatAwakening Mods have been around the block when it comes to shill attacks. We’ve tried different things to fight it. Please trust me when I tell you, that we’ve learned thru trial and error what works.
I know it’s frustrating. But just banning shit posters doesn’t work. They will just make a new username. It does work in certain situations, like well known users who’s username means the world to them, like NeonFag. Please pay close attention to what I’m about to say because I promise you this works if you stick to it.
As most of you know, Q subs are under attack. I’ve made posts trying to help save v/QRV before it’s being completely overtaken. I contacted admin, explained what’s going on, and sent archived links & screenshots of certain Voat users that are taking part in, and/or encouraging others to post gore, porn, and loli cartoon child porn to v/QRV or v/GreatAwakening.
I’ve done all I can do for v/QRV. Now it’s up to those mods to get their act together and save the board Q wanted created or let Admin take care of it. I did what I think Q and POTUS would want. I shouldn’t even worry about it, but this movement means a lot to me and I don’t want to see it fail.
Because of my taking a stand against certain shills, us GreatAwakening mods are under attack. Shills are on v/QRV and other subverse spreading rumors that we are are involved with posting porn, we are manufacturing crisis to ruin QRV, we are paying the shills , etc... I am not friends with the ones doing this. We are NOT involved whatsoever, and DO NOT support what is happening.
All we can do now is focus on v/GreatAwakening. We’re trying our best to make changes. Because of what is happening on v/QRV, we’ve decided to remove posts AND comments that contain porn. Comments are usually left alone. However, this is a private niche subverse and we have the right to protect it.
As a community we need to commit to self-moderate. Trolls and shitposters often take advantage of the free speech environment afforded by minimal moderation to brigade us with troll attempts and shitposts. Harassing with shitpost brigades was (and is) one of the techniques employed by paid groups wanting to disrupt and distract us from staying on topic. Q followers and those fighting pizzagate/pedogate are prime targets and we cover both. Add the fact that we support Trump, and you can see why we are attacked so much.
This is very important and we need you guys to help. As a team, we can fight this. Our policy is not to delete comments unless it is against Voat rules, or pornography. Please do the following. Trust me, this works...
Important Tips
- Downvote Shills!
- Do NOT engage.
- Sort by "New" and downvote all the troll and shitpost threads, then sort by "Hot" to browse the sub.
Ping ALL GreatAwakening Mods - @Srayzie, @Shizy and @MolochHunter) IF...
- Porn is posted. (Even in the comment section.)
- If a submission post is not Q related.
- If a submission post is a lazy no quality post.
Trolls will get bored and tired if the only response they receive here are downvotes. Replies will encourage them to bring over more shills and shit posters. They will downvote you.
Us mods and some GreatAwakening users are being talked about, and/or lied about on other subs and pinged. If they can’t get your attention here, they get you over on other subs. Do not trust the image links. They are probably porn or gore. Do not reply. Do not engage. Support each other and remind each other when you see fellow patriots messing up. We all get weak, just pick yourselves back up.
If you have a specific user that keeps harassing you, go to their profile and on the right hand side, click Block so you don’t see their comments and are not tempted to react.
If you see a user that in NOT anonymous, admitting that they are one of the users posting gore and porn, and/or encouraging others to do it, please archive and send me the links. Screenshots help too.
I will make this a sticky by morning and will add this to the side bar. Remember to share this link with others when you see them feeding the trolls.
Stay strong, and stick together! WWG1WGA! 🇺🇸
Added to the side bar under “Newbies Start Here”
I would like to add, upvoting is important too! Support good posts and content!
@Kevdude made a very good point replying to someone in the comments...
“BUT right now there are 341 users showing up as being active in the sub. Right now. Imagine if all of them downvoted the troll comments. The community has to get in the game and police itself.”

I want to let you guys know that several people, including me, suspect that @LauraIngalls is a shill playing innocent. She disrupts and distracts by attacking others and egging on shills while pretending that she’s just naive.
We’ve tried helping Laura countless times. Today, I spent over an hour helping her over private message. She wrote me this morning and acted like she didn’t know how to tell when she was being pinged to other subverses, why she couldn’t block anonymous users with numbers as their username, why they always attack her, and more.
I made her this graphic to teach her how to tell. Here are excerpts from my reply where I explained things to her. When I started Voat, I was extremely naive too so I felt sorry for her. I even had to tell her how to save the graphic to her computer.
Right after that, I see that she had made this post. She is very aware that that talking about Jews is a touchy subject. She started being shilled. After I had just spent over an hour helping her, she does this. Then she sends me another private message and says this! I replied to this comment and let her know that we aren’t going to help her anymore. We’ve tried several times. I think her innocent act is fake.
So, if you see Laura egging on the shills, please downvote her and treat her like you would any shill.
@Bopper you are our witness that we have tried to help her several times.

I have wondered this for a while now....Srayzie, can you go into my account and read the last several posts/replies (some private, some not I think) she made to me concerning you (and my replies back.) At one point she made an accusation, I questioned it, then she said she couldn't find where you said something (which is impossible as everything is in our history, correct?)
I think you need to read them. Or tell me how to send them to you.

i get your frustration, you put a lot of time and energy into teaching her and she doesnt get it. however, i dont agree to your shill conclusion.
and i certainly dont agree to your call out to SBBH https://voat.co/v/SoapboxBanhammer/3227020, inviting them to troll her. bad move for a mod who should be neutral and level-headed, really, disappointing.
Lauraingalls ago
Thanks for the support, Really SAD and immature on her part and SICK.

Just so you know; I am just fascinated with you, you are so obsessed with Q and Trump it’s borderline idolatry... srayzie has no power over me as I do not submit to her.
Q has power over you though as you willingly submit to it doctrines. Be watchful and pray constantly as the deceiver is pretty cunning my dear.
divine_human ago
not fond of people bashing, laura, neither you nor srayzie. she has a point. if you want to have fun on voat, you need to change your behavior, else you will be attacked by the goats.
Lauraingalls ago
I understand that.
srayzie ago
Us mods don’t deserve to have to work more because you think it’s fun to fight with shills. Stop playing the victim.

I told her publically several days ago how to block users who are bothering her.
I wrote her privately yesterday to tell her I saw she was being attacked and don't agree with it, and have her some tips on how to avoid being targeted. She never wrote me back or acknowledged I was trying to help her. I'm not sure what else can be done for her if she doesn't want to help herself.
divine_human ago
i agree. any way, its better to enter it on your credit side as experience and ditch it now. blaming doesnt help anybody, it only makes things worse.
Lauraingalls ago
I agree. I can't win anyway so no point trying. Thanks,

And how in gods name is /u/GodsAngell not in that exact same category? Hell, for the longest time a few of us thought that those 2 ladies were the same exact person.... I ended up deciding that I don't believe they are the same person, but that just goes to show how similar their mannerisms, posting styles, attitudes, and personalities actually are at times...
argosciv ago
She is, for me. Just saying.
@srayzie
srayzie ago
Maybe she is. We need to watch her. Not everyone who overreacts is a shill. If you see her acting like a shill, downvote her.
PGLiterati ago
I've been convinced she is a shill since October. I stay away. I really don't like naming names--but I suspect she has a second identity on the board as well.
DickTick ago
I'm not necessarily sure either one of them are actually real shills, but sometimes blissful ignorance can do just as much damage, if not more, to a movement such as this.
Thank you though!
