Interesting post @Vindicator. I seem to remember @VieBleu was run off of this forum.. see: @VieBleu is a shitstirring troll and is not to be taken seriously.

Hmm. I wouldn't say she was run off. More like she blew herself up.

VieBleu waged a campaign to get the community to rally behind getting me made O, and minimum CCP raised to 100 (which would have kept our posts off of v/all). EsotericShade helped with that campaign. When Kev foiled it she claimed he was threatening her, then disappeared and never came back.

As I look back, I think VieBleu may have been an ES sock puppet. Both @Kevdude and @Crensch had problems with her/him from the very beginning. She started out complaining about hate speech early on, trying to get mods to delete comments. Moved to mod bashing when we didn't bend to her will, especially when we refused to advertise the protests at Comet. Every time Voat had problems with bugs during DDoS attacks, she would crank up the "Voat compromised" narrative.

Here is ES replying to VieBleu in her big thread pushing the 100 CCP requirement: https://voat.co/v/pizzagatewhatever/2030995/10019687. It's what he made @smurfy69 for.

Do you know when this was planned for?

One of them was on March 25, 2017. I believe the other was the week prior. If you Google my username with the keyword "vigilante" you will probably find my comment explaining why we decided not to officially support it.

Wow, I can’t believe it was that long ago. Time flies!

I know, right? I just had an eye exam and got my first pair of Ben Franklin reading specs.

Congrats! My optometrist predicts it is likely I will be avoiding them for some time longer than average, yet eventually unavoidable.
