I don't want to feel like an r/politics mod anymore Well I meant the more wide sweeping the rules you all can get swamped with reports if people reported every instance and I just brought up the episode discussion to demonstrate how engrained and intertwined these things are with everything and how it means there are hundreds and thousands of threads that could potentially require moderation. Too much of a back log would stop mod effectiveness by creating slow reactions. That's part of why having rules too wide sweeping and strict can have a negative effect. Though i don't know if it will overall work more positive or more negative but I don't think collateral damage is something to not try to avoid. You were spamming threads, so don't act like its my fault that rule 7 was enacted. You said threads so show two...you can't because I don't spam. I have extensive discussion that relates to the topic and if it doesn't relate it's just in response to someone like you who already derailed it. Even with the new rules I wouldn't wind up breaking them anywhere near as much as you and your LARPing group.

I just don't make CD threads very often but have made quite a few in the past revolving around a wide range of subjects. Nyu in CE literally uses sources like the Daily Stormer (just once for that one though thankfully to my recall) that incite racial and xenophobic hatred are not reliable and promote conspiracy theories. All of Nyu's threads in CD and CE are on the same rehashed topic and poorley presented with loads of inaccuracies he repeatedly affirma after proven wrong.

How long will it takes till people figure out the politcally charged topics that Rule 7 forgot to cover? Or when proper passive trolling adapts? Without proper moderation this rule is only a temporary band aid. |

I'm not offended, and I'd actually say your trivial threads should be treated leniently. However, if we're going to lock threads, yours tend to be more lockable than his. There has to be a threshold of triviality. Otherwise, everyone can just spam the forums with threads on every court document that comes into existence from here on. So the Daily Stormer has promoted conspiracy theories. Okay, so does the New York Times with "the Russia scandal" and the fake Syrian gas attacks. Which is worse, and on what criteria? I think both seem rather unreliable, but I have no basis to say the Stormer is worse in terms of presenting facts. I would simply criticize people who use either as a source, but it's likely that both sources will generally point to real events in the world, and from there we can discern where any misinformation might be, and perhaps link a better source. Okay, so you think you won arguments against him and you call his ideology trash. So what? Look, we both dislike Rule 7, but don't try to square the circle such that only people on the far right get banned. Just fight Nyu's speech with your own, as you've been doing, and hopefully the mods will see that this is more trouble than it's worth. |

Yeah no, I mean the thread about some drama related to a Frenchman's dick, and then threads on Neo Nazi discord groups or some shit. Also, I see no evidence that "Aryan Strikeforce" is a "major hate group". They didn't even have a Wiki. All you could dredge up was this weird Russian site with nothing on it. It had FBI written all over it. Only an idiot would join such a thing. The mods have presented NYT as one of the "reputable sources" that we're allowed to use. They are not a reputable source to any savvy person. They engage in wild conspiracies designed to bring the US into insane wars, and peddle fake news constantly. There is no basis whatsoever for saying they are more legitimate than the average independent, online source. The number of people who hate the guy is irrelevant to whether or not he is breaking any rules. The only way I can see him as breaking rules on a regular basis is if a certain point on the political compass in and of itself is against the rules. |

The way I see it, there were two real solutions. One was rule 7, other is just ban a lot of those users. either would have been met with backlash of some sort, personally I am indifferent to rule 7 as to be honest CE has been a shit show for a good while now. Do I prefer this to the shit show? Almost certainly. |

As @Ardanaz has said, most of those threads were highly abused by a lot of users. Even if you wanted to have a civilised debate over a topic, a vast number of people would go there to troll/flame and purpose of the thread would be lost. Also, a lot of the threads made "recently", had shitty websites as a source or didn't even have one. They were just opinions, normally hateful ones. Plus, there are some users here who were creating accounts just for the purpose of trolling and flaming those threads. Bottom line, it became impossible to have any meaningful discussion here. |

Plus, there are some users here who were creating accounts just for the purpose of trolling and flaming those threads. Bottom line, it became impossible to have any meaningful discussion here. People who have been permabanned or are on the verge of a permaban/long ban are also creating and using alt accounts to get around their bans. I don't have direct proof of this, but I have a hypothesis that a good chunk of frequent ban dodgers (who are mostly alt right racists) are TOR users, and TOR allows you the ability to change your IP. By changing your IP, you're able to create a completely different alias that goes under the detection radar of the mods, and it's virtually impossible to outright prove an alt belongs to a banned user unless there's some kind of way to connect it back to their original IP. Usually they won't ban alts going off circumstantial evidence, unless it's blatantly clear they're an alt. Yes, this is a phenomenon that happens. Some of these alts were also created years beforehand, so they also go under detection of the mods when nobody would suspect that a permabanned user would utilize or have created an alt in 2014, as supposed to right after their finalized ban. Then there's the users who join and become active right after the permaban of another user, have the same typing patterns and style as them, and sound like alts as well. Most of these clearly have no profile picture or any activity whatsoever, but some of them do. Maybe the banned users have become that indistinguishable, as they all seem to spout the same crap, have a similar pseudointellectual style of speaking and really love their thesauruses. The fact that some people literally make throwaways to discuss politics on a fucking anime board of all places is absurd. Go back to whatever echo chamber you came from, instead of constantly pushing your propagandic agenda down people's throats and contributing nothing of decency to the discussion, especially if you're not here to actually interact with other people in a civilized manner. |

1. Please refrain from creating threads that do not encourage discussion 6. Casual Discussion is also not a sex board. Thread topics about sexually explicit material are not allowed and will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, discussions about: porn material or the industry, pedophilia, masturbation, sexual fetishes or preferences, and sexual experiences. 7. Controversial/sensitive topics liable to incite rule violations (trolling, flaming, abuse) are no longer allowed. Please use the Current Events board for new developments in these topics, and follow the board rules there. This includes, but is not limited to, topics which: a. aim to profile/stereotype, or question the legitimacy of, people based on their gender, sexual orientation, race, xenophobia, religion, etc. b. discuss highly-debated social issues; e.g. abortion, sexual assault, immigration, etc. c. focus on political ideologies and events; e.g. Nazism, fascism, world leaders, controversial laws/lobbies, etc. wew lad you literally can't talk about anything on here. |

Sure, you can ban obvious obscenity, gore etc. No one wants to see that. Banning controversial ideas and political speech is what will eventually lead to revolution though. Also, banning any source willing to discuss things the MSM won't by itself suppresses a huge range of ideas and perspectives. You can say, "this is just MAL", but it doesn't matter.

I think CD Rule #7 is actually pretty useful. This is, after all, primarily a site about anime and manga, rather than politics or other highly contentious topics. In my view, the rule help keeps the community from fragmenting over things totally unrelated to our hobby. If you'd like to have those discussions, no one is stopping you from using PM, Comment sections, or even voice chat such as Discord. |

It's absurd, they should just ban certain problem users instead. (especially the sensationalist --ALEX-- and the race-baiter Nyu) I honestly think that DeNA is making them do this to "sanitize" the forum and make it more like the cancer that is Crunchyroll forums, and the people who run this site only care about money and corporate sponsors. |

Rule #7 Added. In an effort to curb the amount of toxicity present in Casual Discussion, as well as to hopefully reduce the likelihood of rule violations enabled by such threads, controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. When in doubt, please contact a forum moderator. To me this suggests they've had sufficient bad experiences in the past with this kind of threads. It must be nearly impossible to effectively patrol the various boards with a team of 8 moderators. What's more, it makes little sense to create conditions known to lead users to break other rules. I am neither saying I agree nor that there is no argument to be made, but you certainly aren't doing yourself any favours by demonizing the other side and jumping to conclusions. |

Maybe its something to Separate CD (Casual Discussion;more Chill talk about things other than anime) from CE (Current Events; Political stuff mostly). They want people to know that there is a time and a Place for everything. They know that people tand to post Stuff that belongs to CE in CD so they made a rule prohiting that kind of thing in that part of the forums. They also want to Preserve their public Image. |

I mean, there's the support and suggestions board, all the general boards, plus the anime & manga boards, including the myriad of series discussions... and I suppose they also have to deal with other issues users have outside the forum. It's a team of 8 moderators, probably with different time zones and routines, hard to expect half of them to be online simultaneously and to be able to effectively and promptly keep order in every board. None of them is online right now, for instance. Edit: To answer Zachh's point, I don't know how 'easy' recruiting more mods is, and there would still be a problem with inciting users to violate the rules. |

Point is, much of the stuff is rather harmless and doesn't even need to be viewed as a rule breaking or being worthy of reporting. People have a self-interest in following rules to get a normal climate of conversing with others.I mean, there's the support and suggestions board, all the general boards, plus the anime & manga boards, including the myriad of series discussions... and I suppose they also have to deal with other issues users have outside the forum. It's a team of 8 moderators, probably with different time zones and routines, hard to expect half of them to be online simultaneously and to be able to effectively and promptly keep order in every board. None of them is online right now, for instance. Which leads to my statement: some people have become too sensitive that they would rather kill possible discussions than to have other people state things they don't like to read. |

I think it's a good rule. CE was even more cancerous before that rule was added. |

It's mostly to get rid of the extremists who've been spreading trash and misinformation, using the site as what's basically a recruiting ground for the alt right because there are a lot of antisocial young anime fans who'd fall for their lies if they're desperate enough (that's the sad part). Thus far it's mostly prevailed, sans a few users, a lot of the fashies were deterred by the rule and stopped coming back. I say mostly, but mostly is still progress over none at all. Some of the rules are a little dumb, like "fag" being considered an offense, but much of the context of rule 7 does exist for a damn good reason. People were fucking tired of seeing racists carry over from CE into casual discussion |

it's lazy mods dont want to do their job so they create a rule to do it for them and on what basis can you say something is controversial were not all the same |
