Hello. This is a thread where I will list some way this awesome site can improve; separated by spoilers as to not create a wall of text.
Do something about the A-loggers on the site.

It has come to my attention that a disturbing amount of users on Kiwi Farms are some brand of A-log, such as @sparklemilhouse , @Digimon , and @Clay Claymore to name a few. These users should be dealt with by getting forum threads and getting Lolcow Wiki articles if they lulzy enough to warrant one. Luckily Clay already has a lolcow wiki article which is something I appreciate from you guys.
Give the following people threads:

  • Arin Hanson(Or unquarantine his current thread.)
  • Simply Dad/Okami
  • The users I mentioned in Suggestion #1
  • Sam Hyde
  • Turkey Tom
  • Spechie
Refrain from talking about the source material in fandom threads (in most case).

I find it odd that alot of people seem to talk about the source material in fandom threads. For example; I see people sperging about the Steven Universe cartoon instead of discussing the spergs who watch the cartoon. I'd advise everyone to only talk about the source material itself when It's directly related to a controversy/spergout like the time where Rebecca Sugar was accused of making a unintelligent black character who can't read. If you want to talk about the thing the people in that respective fandom like then make a thread in the multimedia subforum or something.
Stop the circlejerking.

I feel that a noticeable flaw with the forums is that alot of the threads consist solely of circlejerking in agreement to whatever opinion the majority believes in at the moment. Certain users just seem to post generic statements or jokes just for the sake of farming feelgood ratings. Sometimes a user will post legitimate questions about whether or not X is actually a lolcow and then proceed to get shat on and have their post deleted and proceed to be threadbanned. Of course this is not the only way for this to happen. If a user goes against the public opinion at all for what ever reason, valid or not, this will end up happening. I recommend that the mods start discouraging this behavior.
Realize that the following people aren't lolcows.

Related to suggestion #4, I think it's nigh time that everyone starts realizing that some people are excused of being lolcows on the site and receiving threads when they're really not. Such as:
  • Shadman (Though his fanbase definitely are though.)
  • Sleepykinq
  • The Wallflower
Cut it out with the armchair psychology.

I hate armchair psychology in general but it's especially bad on the farms. I especially hate it when people try to diagnose people with antisocial personality disorder or narcissistic personality disorder like with Vade or Darksydephil. It just comes across as very A-loggy to tbh. Not everyone has a mental disorder. Most people are just assholes.
I just want to clarify that did not make this post out of spite.
I love the farms I just wanna wanna see it improve and reach new heights and become greater and greater website than it was before. I hope my suggestions are taken into consideration and wish you all a great day.

Cordially Yours, Failstation.
 
I am this close to disabling spoilers on the site. What the fuck is it with little kids from Tumblr insisting on making every goddamn mother fucking thing on this fucking site an additional click to see? Do you think it's cute?

edit: wait this fucking kike joins yesterday and demands we delete threads on shadman and create threads on stephen universe fans? are you joking? get the fuck out

Yep.
There's 100 definitions of what a lolcow is to 100 different kiwis. It's hard to just revoke someone's lolcow status because one person find them no fitting for their own definition.
See suggestion #4.
