Long ago, back in the days of Millennial_Falcon, Amalek-style spammers would occasionally be activated to attack this place. MF would start simply banning anyone that posted the same drivel, and nobody really seemed to mind save a few times a possibly innocent user was caught in the ban wave.

Since the Jem777 shills are still going strong on their attacks of the users, mods, voat, and their sliding of the forum and misleading of the researchers, the idea of doing the same has been floated past me.

I thought perhaps flairs would work better - the normies still allow CSS and would see the flair, while the goat-tier would see right through the subversives right away.

With some of the more well-liked usernames, I'll be sure to make a post detailing the justification of their flair. With others, they're either nobodies and not worth that kind of time, or you can click on their comments page and see why they have been flaired.

Many of us have lost someone here that we thought were decent users, or even really good users while some haven't. Either way, it's silly to think that everyone you know here that posts isn't now getting paid to veer off course, or hasn't been paid this entire time to infiltrate and try to sabotage from the inside. Many of these "users" were caught here, and many vindicated. You're welcome to crawl down all those rabbit holes that the mods have had to deal with the past few weeks if you like.

Flairs may be used, going forward, for the following:

@Jem777 was a disinfo troll into weird shit and is objectively a liar. Though not all put together, @srayzie made some posts on it. 1 2

@Gothamgirl is objectively a liar and accused @srayzie of criminal acts while showing that she is pathological in her lying.

@RIPJem you only need to click on the comment history to see why this user would have flair.

@Piscina might earn a flair soon for this accusation of mod removals of relevant threads.

Some other users may earn flair soon - some you may have liked or appreciated. Each one will have a post HERE for their attacks on this place so the users can see for themselves, and argue their case for any username they happen to like.

Throwaway names and aged sock puppets will require no explanation unless the users here decide it is necessary.

SOMEthing needs to be done about what's happening here, and the mod team is small and limited in resources and time. The line must be drawn somewhere, and we are all doing what we can to stick to Voat's free-speech principles while limiting the negative effects of paid pedo-protectors on everyone here in PG.

If we get user input, the mods will go with the consensus. If not, the mods will try to work out a system that is agreeable on their own.

From @Vindicator:

It should be noted that there are many creative ways that username flares could be deployed, including some positive ones like a gold star or something for people's favorite researchers. People should think about this and share any ideas they have.
