the long march was very important for the chinese communist party to lose some fat, hopefully politards shake off during our march to Yan'an
1. will us newfags (post-2016 joiners) suffer purges?
2. what direction will you hope to push towards in 2021 in terms of the site and escaping politics?
3. dimensional merge nooooow

I'm in favor of locking out political scrubs, but the fact that Null has done nothing about "shut down A&N" shills/no-avatar shitters that joined less than a year ago is telling.

IMHO lockdown should remain in place until at least a week or so after Biden's inauguration. Possibly longer, depending on the state of the Farms and the overall state of political discourse across the internets.

Yeah, I agree. I think it would be prudent to see how those exiled from Twitter/Parler etc. respond and where they move to. I think an open door policy here will bring risk to Josh and the future of the farms. It was wise to close registrations, in the short-term at least.

While there is all this shit going on, there is a risk of people trying to incite or coordinate. I don't think that should be happening here.

During registration lockdown, there should be an email address or link to the fediverse of some sort where "urgent registration" and "immediate leaks on persons of interest" from current non-members should be directed to, because while the bulk of it would be garbage there would inevitably be one or two gems in there. Faggots begging for accounts, dirt being posted to get an account, appeals to existing members monitoring both, all sorts of desperate laughs.

I particularly liked these posts while the site was down:

I enjoy KF specifically because it's gate-kept. Twitter is nothing but bluehairs and boomers yelling at eachother. Gab is nothing but boomers yelling at clouds.

I agree that lockdown should continue until after the inauguration... maybe for a few weeks. Exposes more people to the Fediverse anyway.

The discourse across the web is going be how to do in the other guy after all the shit That happened in 2020
Locking down is the right call.
 
This is the new normal. You have to wear your masks before you post and all /pol/fags have to be injected with a fedpost vaccine that prevents them from making credible threats.

Also this. Maybe Feb. 1st for a soft deadline, then reevaluate the state of politics and the people coming to the site (i.e. no longer being posted on /pol/)? Or not allow access to off-topic until a certain reaction score threshold. Also have a permanent link to the Fediverse node. Just a few suggestions, because I don't have much experience as a webmaster.
 
While I've always enjoyed the emphasis on freedom of speech on this message board, I've never liked the kinds of people that it seems to specifically attract. It's too often that I see these rambling Stormfront rejects post these very out-of-place, poorly-constructed, autistic walls of text on the deep thoughts forum as their very first message. Just because you can say whatever you want up to a pretty high point doesn't mean you should. Think about where you are and why things are the way they are. The general subject matter on these forums aberrs enough from the polite and the politically correct that it wouldn't make sense not to have a general freedom of speech.

This forum is for laughs and gossip; and for a while, it was fun to laugh at the glowposters too. But the joke is getting repetitive enough to not be funny, and people who don't belong are finding a little bit too much of a belonging. I hope the books remain closed for as long as it takes to swell the tide.
