We have to talk about you faggots not being able to figure out thumbnails

Kiwifarms is a forum site, not a news site. If you signed to the farms, then that means you resign all forms of news, god-forbid you actually resign yourself to the great groupthink the media pits in front of you.

The internet should only be for entertainment purposes, not a newspaper for zoomers.
 
I agree that shit like that shouldnt be permitted. Political opinions are like assholes, we all have them and both can lead to shit. But its preferable if people kept things civil at least.

I just find it a bit unfair to blame it all on one place. I mean, lets be honest, removing Tumblr didnt make all retards on it disappear (ik it wasnt removed but given the changes it made, it practically was), they simply moved else where like Twitter.

Im just saying that if one is hasty and just "nukes it" from orbit, it may only make it worse because they will infect other places on the site. Its best to focus on individuals and remove them.
Judging on how A&N had moderators that have not stuck around and the people here rationalizing that it stays, I doubt it.

Could be that the forum is toxic, but could also be because previous mods erroneously thought it was a glamorous and respected position that conferred power on them.
I like the ones we have now and I hope we get to keep them and the forum too.
 
so
  • Null hates A&N, and wants to drop it completely upon installing the new forum software
  • L50LasPak (staff) is willing to take on the monumental task of cleaning it all up, and just needs the go-ahead
  • most people ITT, from all over KF, are in full support of A&N's deletion
  • but CatParty (also staff) posts maybe like half of the threads in A&N total, mostly reviled culture war bullshit, several every day for years now, while rarely ever posting outside of A&N, and even her A&N threads are lazy - no archives or images
  • and A&N keeps chugging along

seinfeld what's the deal emoticon.pngWhat's the DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAL with CatParty? Is she the sole reason A&N's still here?
 
I really don't understand the hatred of A&N. I get the huge lack of quality in a lot of comments on articles, but as null points out constantly, the farms are an archival site and this site is one of the few sites that actually allows a full copy paste of an article, to be archived and a relatively free and open commentary.

There's a lot of garbage threads and articles that get posted and they quickly vanish, but there's others that do spark some decent conversation and there's a huge variety in the kinds of topics and articles that get posted, more than i've seen elsewhere. And a lot of them do fall under 'gossip news'. News and gossip have always gone hand in hand, trying to separate them is ridiculous.
 
I'm guilty of this for the roughly 2-3 times I've ever posted an image, but in my defence those images were funny and not cunty /pol/ shit so I'm excusing myself for those occasions.

I hate when people throw images behind spoilers in an attempt to get around full sizing. Spoilers make the browser snap to them and tbh having to click around and close them to get the gist of the images instead of just having thumbnails is annoying. If a post is a bunch of spoilers lined up I tend to ignore it. This shid kinda ruins some threads for me.

Why use A&H when threads are slow instead of the infinitely better off-topic sections (or just getting off the computer)? Politics and news are faggot shit and breed negativity. Politispergs should kys.

I miss the days when you can be apolitical instead of taking a side.
