Facepunch/Knockout Forums - A "welcoming" gaming and lifestyle community

Notice how they said "I think you should remove your post"? That's a demand, not a request.

Thank goodness they've resigned from being a jannie, because I'll bet my last gold coin that meppers (the user who pissed them off) would have been slapped with a permaban for daring to defy the hivemind.

That's what wishes for fishes does now. That's literally their only purpose of to enforce the hivemind.

No one abuses the pronouns fields more than troons themselves.

Can’t wait for the inevitable meta thread where on of the troons accuses another of abusing it by putting some weird shit in it, like queer/queerself.

Watch them fight eachother as someone uses neopronouns like catgender or robotgender or zombiegender and gets banned :)

Knockout meet-up, bunch of tranny hoodlums in single room who are too "depressed" to bath/take shower but not too depressed to inject estrogen, imagine the smell :O

Poe's Law. I guarantee you they'll be fighting each other over who's genuine and who's just laughing in the background.

Regular meetups aren't exactly the kind of thing I'd want to attend all the time, and I sure as hell am not going to attend a "meetup" of terminally online users. That sounds like a recipe for disaster.

january 6th is okay if we would be ones doing it- knockout hivemind
At least jannies banned him for that really not subtle at all fedpost. Though I would imagine the next thing they would do is screech at them for banning him.

The Otherkin thread will wage Jihad on the mods

I sometimes wonder if the jannies are worried that they could possibly get overthrown by their own users. In my opinion, if a community coup really did happen, the otherkin would be the most likely group to start it.

Just happened with the tranny users. They are now implementing "proactive banning".
 
At least Garry would have gone around to the forums eventually to go "what the fuck?" and then revert all the stupid shit the mods had done at the time. I think we all know why he told KO users to fuck off when he remade the FP forums to only discuss their games.
KO is just an example of why a forum should not be an equal community effort. It just means rogue community members in high positions let more and more vile shit slide under the radar through skewed votes labelled under "democracy". Community members may be let clean up their own little corners, but someone needs to be out there ruling with a reasonable iron fist above all.
Jim would've been the last remotely sane shimmer of hope if they hadn't kicked him out, but he wasn't above any of the other jannies so his time was truly limited.

In theory, democratic leadership is a good form of leadership because the community decides what rules are made and gets some kind of "representation", the "reasonable iron fist" role comes from the mods, and the community takes an "active role" in participation.

In practice (and KO is no exception), what you practically always end up with is a festering shithole of degeneracy and a tyrannical moderation style that the community themselves promote (hell, they've begged for more trannies on the team even when more than half the team are fucking trannies!) And representation? The last time someone argued on whether "retard" was a slur or not there were massive slapfights and giant essays written on it because God forbid we disregard the opinion of the LGBTWTFBBQ+ community. There's no incentive to clean anything up because the community themselves want wrongthink purged. Most people don't give a fuck about democracy and aren't even involved in the process, which fucks it over even more. And there are so many drama threads started in Meta because the rules are so poorly written and can be used to ban someone who so much as sneezes wrongly in the jannie team's general direction.

Part of democratic leadership is honesty and integrity, so a group of powertripping and authoritarian jannies will inevitably be dishonest. But that's the thing - democratic leadership doesn't work very well when you lie to your community. Knockout jannies have probably lied to their own community more than they've breathed (remember Jim?) and it came back to bite them in the ass way too many goddamn times to count.

The way they pushed Jim out after all he did was disgusting, I'm still mad about that. No sane user should have a positive view of KO after that, he did a lot for that community only to be spat out by the tranny clique.

It's not democratic. Its a dictatorship lead by a Vanguard Party.

I call it the Anarcho-Communist Party of Knockout, but Vanguard Party works just as well. With the jannies, they have their own Politburo, too.

"No, it doesn't matter that he didn't actually deserve to be banned, his rightfull unban is a "disturbing" attack on my troonhood. Please ban him because some random people were mean to me! Here's a random sob story on the house."
Win against who?

These troons always have taken up these imaginary people who are after them and want them dead but in reality no one is stopping you from living your life, but some aren't going to play along with your delusions.
