IIRC, he took sides with the RIPJem guy (please correct me if I'm wrong, @jangles, might not remember this correctly), but later said @srayzie's stance had some merit.
Thanks. My intention here is not to discredit or demean. People getting called out for being alts with crensch style, provides a disservice for this community. Unfortunately that nazi thug is intelligent and has clear intentions for Jews. This is not someone you want as a FRONT MAN.
Re 1) please see my comment above. He was right in calling the users out. I looked into Esoteric's comment history, and I also saw that the users in question here upvoat brigaded, which is not allowed. They even admitted it in the end.
2) @Crensch has, together with @kevdude, saved the v/pizzagate sub when it got attacked by old Goats. This is why he is an O. He is here to protect the sub against shill attacks, and Esoteric definitely is some kind of shill, very likely a paid deepstate shill. Otherwise he wouldn't have invested this much time and energy.
If you don't like @Crensch and/or don't like his wording when he calls out people, that's fine - you also don't have to like me, or like me being a mod, I would accept that too.
I know that we should be aware that using aggressive language should be only used when necessary. In this case (Esoteric), even I called him out in an aggressive way, since I have an overview of what he did to people (like EYJP or Cc1914), and what he has done is not acceptable.
I try to limit the use of aggressive language to a minimum, since I am aware that there always is 'colleteral damage' - users who are not familiar with the background story might turn away from the sub. Maybe this is what you tried to say.
TL;DR: I would like to ask you to please not mix 1) and 2) when you discuss @Crensch's actions. Thank you.
Here is Esoteric - What is the attack on them for? Why? This is not clear to me. Is it just they have a few alts and upvoted thier stuff/ was it ill-mannered or with ill-intention? Serious question
I don't disagree that that goat has been creating alts and promoting their opinions. This should be made more clear to be A NO NO! THE INTENTION MATTERS. What is Esoteric doing that creates problems? They wanted to strengthen their voice and did it in a way that undermined their integrity bud does not appear to be doing this with mall intent. Present how Esoteric is spreading lies or intentionally manipulating content relevant to the interests of the community.

@jangles - creating alts is allowed. Brigading is not allowed. Esoteric upvoat and downvoat brigaded with his alts, thus he manipulated the CCP and SCP on the sub. This, taken for itself, damages the sub. (And please note, I am non-partisan, and not into Q, so this is not a 'muh, he pushed against Q'-reply).
Also, he groomed users like EYJP and Cc1914, and used his 'friendship' to influence them, and they also brigaded. He groomed and hurt them.
yes, and rallying for support around your opinions is how people validate their position. Idk how he hurt them?
The minimal ammount 3-4 ccp and scp points you are talking about is a joke to me. Taking anything here at face value is absurd and we should all encourage others to assess our opinions. The challenges I present about the antics of crensch are more damning to the voat goats and the links to the reddit pages with 100's of scps and strong ccps regarding the distaste for his position are substantial. I am not alone in my opinion here and you can stand by and watch the integrity built here slide under your watch. I am not saying that crensch should not be allowed to be a mod. What I am doing is pointing out an issue that can become a problem without addressing it. Godspeed and thanks for the commitment to this prerogative, civil discourse is best. Thanks for your candor.
He pretended to be their friend when he wasn't, so they feel betrayed now. They realized he only used them
yes, and rallying for support around your opinions is how people validate their position.
Having others that might want to support your stance when they happen to read your comments is fine; manipulating others, inventing multiple alts that talk to each other creating whole comment threads, and constantly upvoat and downvoat brigading isn't. Apart from intentionally grooming 'friends', and then only using them as pawns.
The minimal ammount 3-4 ccp and scp points you are talking about is a joke to me.
I was talking about 6-7 alts at least he used at the same time in order to brigade.

I agree. This should not prevent us from calling out those cases when someone is obviously acting in a malicious way.
You have read this thread, you have read my replies to Cc1914 and 3141......, and saw that I accepted their apologies, and let them get away with it. Esoteric is a whole different story.
I am not alone in my opinion here and you can stand by and watch the integrity built here slide under your watch.
I heard you; in the end it will be up to @Crensch to assess this criticism and decide whether and how he might want to change or not. Please note that I chose to use the same aggressive language @Crensch often uses when I dealt with Esoteric this time; there have been reasons for doing so.
Godspeed and thanks for the commitment to this prerogative, civil discourse is best. Thanks for your candor.
Thanks for helping me come to understand this @think-
@crensch thanks for helping shine light on this esoteric wound. I hope you can understand my distaste for some of your over-generalizations and grouping tactics that at times demeans my integrity and honor. As far as the unrepresented hate and despise you have for many of the Jews, it doesn't help using any race to name call or demean. Plus they have had it pretty bad in the 20th century and they don't have much longer anyway, give the Jew name calling a break for a bit. Don't hold back the language, or vilified assessments of BS here that would be rampant without your assistance.

I don't do what I do to be popular with people. I get it; I just don't care. All of that is a necessary part of me being effective at doing my self-imposed job here.

I don't think @jangles is an Esoteric alt, @kevdude.
IIRC, he took sides with the RIPJem guy (please correct me if I'm wrong, @jangles, might not remember this correctly), but later said @srayzie's stance had some merit.

I think it would be good if we would split this discussion into two halves:
1) Discussing whether your claim that @Crensch's claims are 'unsubstantiated' has merit,
2) whether you personally like @Crensch or not.
Re 1) please see my comment above. He was right in calling the users out. I looked into Esoteric's comment history, and I also saw that the users in question here upvoat brigaded, which is not allowed. They even admitted it in the end.

Have you read @Crensch's post that has been stickied, and the comments on the thread? I'd recommend reading it, it will answer your question.

I have some suggested reading for you:

https://voat.co/v/AskVoat/2125687/10475639
https://voat.co/v/whatever/2528188/12667712
The links above will show they richly deserve all the hate they've gotten throughout their existence.
Given the previous sentences, this one seems without proper context. Explain?
