Hey! We would love to get this place to where it was, sad that reddit did what it did.... you need 10 CCP to post though (no idea what that means...) but I have a link of a great deal that wasn't on the reddit gundeals list
This 10 CCP minimum for posting prevents faggots and kikes of shitting on our place.
Just saying it would be great to make this place welcoming and polarizing the circumstance like this will turn away a lot of users...Not trying to be thought or word police just saying that as a gun community we should come together and not splinter apart
If we keep the culture like this people will not migrate here/deals won't be posted and this will go back to one submitted post a month, we probably shouldn't talk like that
You should be aware of how you sound. You just mass migrated to a website with an existing population, are currently crashing our servers, and immediately start telling us that we need to change our culture and how we talk for you. You haven't even been here long enough to see what this place is like on a normal day.
Can you see how this would get a hostile reaction?
An existing 'population' of less than 225 users and 1 'deal' a month - Im in this for gundeals, as I would hope everyone in a gundeals sub would be, you can keep your gatekeeping I just want the gundeals, being hostile to new users (as many have been to others here) isn't going to get us all where we want to be (again I assume thats deals on firearms and related material)
I'm taking about voat as a whole, not just this sub. Voat is a small website, so subverses aren't as modular as subreddits are. It's pretty easy for one large subverse to have a big effect on the whole site.
I'm just trying to give you a little perspective about why every time you say stuff like that people attack you, in case you wanted to understand anything about the website you just made an account on. If you consider that to be gatekeeping or hostility, I don't know what to tell you.
Im fine with it - if it gets more people into the gundeals section (only part I ever visited reddit for anyway, most likely will be the same for here as well). They can 'attack' me all they like, but my goal is to get as many gundeals here as possible, if it upsets the handful of people who have 'attacked' me I'm ok with it because it could make a difference
I do appreciate the reaching out/dont take what I'm saying the wrong way, but what, 5 people have said something negative to me about what I've said (out of an original 225 users here) This place has a lot of potential that hasn't been realized before and this might be the chance to make it into something more and I think most realize that - or at least make it something that reliably produces gundeals
Almost all of the users here are fine with the gundeal content, they're just worried about getting infected by reddit culture.
New users get hazed, it happens every migration. A lot of it sounds more hostile than it really is because people use harsh language casually. It'll calm down after a while, and people that aren't participating in the sub for its content will mostly lose interest and wander off.
I can also say I disagree with what they are saying and that they misrepresent an entire community when they do so. But hey, if y'all don't want gundeals in a gundeals sub then thats yalls choice - theres a reason that prior to today the most recent 'deal' was a month ago and this place had less than 225 subs
Go ahead and do your thing. I'm only telling you this so you can see a common perspective Voat users will have. Might help to have some self-awareness at least that you've been on this site an hour and you're already telling its users how to behave.
Fair - but there were less than 225 users here this morning and there are now almost 500...this place has effectively doubled in a couple of hours. Having a little self awareness will show you that the demographic is changing
Were all here for gundeals, with that common ground lets move to having more deals instead of the sparse amount that was here before, this is an opportunity for all of us
No, I said what I did because, you condemned our culture fucko. you come here like a fucking refugee to Europe and shit on the "culture" you dumb motherfucker.
You need to integrate, we won't change and we give a fucks less about Reddit cucks migrating here.
Culture like what? Honest? Just because someone calls someone else a pussy doesn't mean the whole community is the same. Let go of the ways of the REE and embrace the red pill, it only hurts worse if you resist

CCP is like reddit karma.
This 10 CCP minimum for posting prevents faggots and kikes of shitting on our place.
Just keep on engaging in discussions and you will reach 10 CCP soon.

It's really not that hard to get 10 points... And it keeps most of the niggerfaggots away

You keep saying "we", but your account's only an hour old and you don't seem to really understand the culture.
We are a free speech community and people talk however they damn well please. If you don't like someone calling you a niggerfaggot you can:
And honestly if someone doesn't migrate because they don't like some of the words and ideas shared on this site, we don't want them.

We are gun owners who want deals on guns....

You're a fucking kike, aren't you? I can see that hideous hook nose from here.
NiggerBitch69 ago
Shut up faggot
SavageRuger ago
Na, if y'all want a gundeals sub then make it one, if not then no harm in going back to the one 'deal' a month and less than 225 subs it was at before
Deezle ago
You are faggot Jew shill and you are hurting your own cause on purpose. Why?
FortressOmega ago
God you're a faggot ass nigger
SavageRuger ago
For wanting gundeals in a gundeals sub? Or did y'all like the inactivity of before

You're probably right, but its going to happen here. It will be worse in the beginning.
Sessjoolintz ago
If that's how everyone here talks then this won't go very far.
Its_over_9000 ago
Some of you will develop thicker skin and stay, others will just go back to reddit. That's how shit works around here.
NiggerBitch69 ago
Shut up faggot lol

Don't be such a bigger. If you don't like it you can go back to reddit.
