Registrations will remain closed to the public throughout June, 2022.

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
So I came here at the worst time...

I'm surprised that I went though, but my biggest concern is that these new users (who tend to be midwit normies or snarky autistic incels) will ruin this site. It happened with other forums and sites before, btw.
Yeah, closing the registration throughout the whole year would be a good idea
 
I should have signed up years ago just to avoid the stigma.
Yeah, I wished I did the same thing, I even have friends (both online & IRL) who wants the civility & sincerity of forums like this.
I mean it's KiwiFarms after all, if you screw up (big) then you're fucked.

Why not become a invite only forum, after all we are dealing a new generation of idiots (Zoomers) who always does this obnoxious habit of doing sarcasms and meta-ironies.

I'm a Zoomer btw... (kill me)
 
Accounts under a year old shouldn't be able to access Autistic Thunderdome. If we've already tried that and it didn't work, use a combination of minimum account age and minimum number of posts.

There's a subset of newfags who exclusively post in that subforum, and they're completely allergic to integrating. They just want a space to sperg about politics where they're allowed to say "nigger," and they don't give a crap about the site's actual purpose or culture. I don't fault them for wanting a totally rules-free place for political sperging, but that's just not what KF is for. People like that are the reason why the Stonetoss thread is a dumpster fire-- they don't like exposure being given to cows on their side of the fence politically.

If your perspective on whether or not someone is a cow is based on how much you disagree with their political stance, you've missed the point of cows. Sure, certain fringe political movements tend to attract cows, like MGTOW or transgenderism, but you can find them basically anywhere. Sometimes you share views or interests with them-- it's statistically inevitable. That doesn't mean you should derail the discussion with sperging on whether the person is a cow, especially if the thread made it out of proving grounds.
What has stonetoss actually done that's threadworthy? I went over the OP a while ago and I don't recall seeing anything other than butthurt.

Honestly I find discovering the fuck ups of those you follow tend to be great, specially with how effective people are at being chameleons. The type of people that will look past the utter retardation of Cows that politically match them should be looked down upon as much as A-logs.
In short, fuck em
 
Null probably wouldn't want to completely cut it off to the public because traffic would take a nose dive, not sure by how much but it would be inevitable. He's also talked before about how forums in general tend to get bumped down in search results because they aren't written like an article or a simple Wikipedia page, and search engine algorithms don't like that at all, as they've tailored them for normies and/or dumb people.

Maybe something like a certain amount of time needs to pass before a newly registered user can comment so you essentially get them to "lurk more" again if they didn't before signing up, so that acts like a safeguard.

But I suppose it won't really matter much to most people who are interested in discussing infamous internet retards here anyway, as long as the forum culture doesn't diverge too much from what this place is supposed to represent, you weed out the retards who don't contribute properly so they fuck off and pollute other forums that tolerate that bullshit.
 
Its a bunch of Jimcels making accounts to defend the honor of their internet father.
He came back, just like I knew he would. This time he didn’t just go out for milk and smokes. He came back!

I wonder if having wiki like OPs would help with that…
Ever since I found out about this site 2-3 years ago, I find it hilarious that the average /tv/fag or /pol/ack believes he's too good for the farms. He could argue with a bot for an hour and post 10 times in a 1-post-by-this-id thread. He will obsess over anything and anyone, at any given time and will argue about the shape of the earth every day. But the evil "doxxfarms" is where they all draw the line.
They're just too morally superior to the Kiwifarms.

"The FBI submitted an Emergency Disclosure Request regarding what they perceived as a credible threat posted to the forum. It was a voluntary request. I decide to ask for them to pursue a warrant but I did ban the user in question. They did not produce a warrant, which surprised me, because I thought the poster sounded completely unhinged."

I wonder if this was one of the recent unwashed masses

Not so; the Jimboys already have their accounts. The current menace is the Lolcow Uprising, their agents spreading disinformation and derailing threads just like the commies back in the cold war.

The invite stuff is fine. I know a lot of people create a new account every few months to keep info at a minimum.
 
We've gotten way too many faggots from Reddit/etc in the last 2-3 years and I worry that the site will soon be completely overrun by those faggots similar to what happened to Something Awful. I've literally seen niggas on here unironically using xD or 0_0.

Maybe this is a horribly retarded idea but maybe make people apply to join the forums with a short questionnaire (why do you want to join, what do you think KWF is all about, what do you think of _____) and/or a quick interview with an admin. Of course, the downside of that is it could lead back to the same problem where the site has only a "certain type" of people joining it.

Jersh needs money to keep the damn site up and new blood means new money to some extent. Why haven't you bought your true and honest yet?

Give me a reason and I will be happy to oblige.

Found the Groyper.
At least you have more initiative in keeping the integrity of Kiwifarms intact than other websites.
I'm interested to see how far we go in this shitfest of a situation :story:
When Jersh moves to China and slips his member into that tight slanted Asian puss the Farms is over. Why spend your days coding a money pit when you could be sticking it in the yellow pit.
 
Not sure its been suggested or not but why not have an account activation delay of like a week or two? Might help solve the issue of people coming in to sperg about something that just happened and it isn't too much of a barrier for people wanting to genuinely contribute like invitation only can be.
