I know it's not been the whole 6 months we discussed last time, but it is indeed time to talk about the RULES.
As you all know, we have a place for meta talk about the rules and the mods, /v/pizzagatemods. It's not overly public, and it's not the most elegant solution to cluttering the front page here, but that's what we have.
This sticky is here because the usual monthly concern-trolling, and @Millenium_Falcon attacking by @ESOTERICshade gathered enough notice to warrant one.
This was the deleted post. This is the post I made with my findings on the issue.
As always, mods serve at the pleasure of the users of the subverse. Please make your voices heard.
This sticky is both a polling and a discussion. Discuss whatever, wherever, but the polling will function like this:
POLLING
On a base-level comment, type any of these numbers you agree with, in any order.
1 - Rules are fine, don't change them
2 - Mods are doing a good job, don't remove them
3 - Mods aren't doing enough, and need to recruit more mods, and remove more submissions.
4 - Mods are not doing a good job, we need to talk about removing them
5 - Rules are not fine, we need to change them
6 - Mods need to lighten up and let more things slide, let's talk about that.
7 - Try no rules and no moderation for a couple of weeks
8 - No rules and no moderation in perpetuity.
Millennial_Falcon
Millennial_Falcon seems to be a popular whipping boy here. Those that show up in /v/pizzagatemods with complaints tend to target him almost exclusively. The people attacking him seem to think they're not alone, but fail to provide any evidence of wrongdoing.
Keep in mind, your accusations and support for them will not just be taken at face value, like every accuser so far seems to have expected. They will be researched thoroughly, and if there is merit to them, something WILL be done. Please feel free to be the first to provide evidence of wrongdoing on his part.
And by all means, comment on any other mod you have an issue with. Hell, if you guys want ME gone, I'll hand over the reigns to whomever you think is worthy.
Poll will end on the 18th.
Oh,
9 - Stop asking us this crap for 6 months FOR REAL this time!

1st) Rules are fine, but maybe change/enforce some to advance the goal of keeping content and discussion as high value as possible.
I seem to always tune in on the tail end of the big zhit storms and never really know what went down. All I really see is the dust left from a bunch of rude infighting that erodes the overall experience.
As a daily visitor, what I value most are posts with good titles, clear descriptions of the links and images and some thoughtful opinion or analysis. I appreciate everyone who keeps lists and timelines and other data for reference.
Asking people to be nice seems to be an antagonistic thing to do here because that seems to be perceived as a weakness and some how a badge of honor is bestowed only on those that are rude and those that keep their mouth's shut and don't interrupt those being rude.
So, my suggestion is in the first line of this post, but I will add a second suggestion below to mods, posters and commentors:
2nd) Be less toxic and more informative.

Ok so, I'm gonna try to help you out here, without ruining the fun...
When I reply with certain songs towards some users, there's an underlying message being sent, the message changes sometimes, so the imporant thing to note, is context... "repeats are important"
The following song is a personal favorite for a variety of reasons...
Prozak Ft. Tech N9ne & Twiztid - Do you know where you are?
Listen closely to the intro.
There's also the following lyrics, worth mentioning in context here:

Fuckin lol, had to wonder when you'd show up again - sorry about the 15 hour delay, I don't get notifs, what with you being blocked and all xD
I see you're learning to quote because it bothers you not getting a direct response - fun part... the horizontal line indicates to other readers, where the edit came in - the edit always comes in when I eventually notice your reply, because you remind me of Elmer.
Once again, a mediocre effort to hide your identity. Learn to read, sunshine.

You have one job argosciv The Satanic Bozo, and that is to stop acting like a prick. When you accomplish that feat you are off the hook. Until then you will remain on radar. You create your own reality. Create a better one for yourself and you will have a better one. That is all.
