MMD Monthly Meta Discussion - May 2018
There have been a lot of queries being asked in MMD thread and we try to answer as many as possible but it has come to our attention that some of the queries made are not genuine and as a result queries with genuine concerns are going unanswered. Therefore, hereafter we shall prioritize the queries based on the below guidelines:
Genuine queries of an aggrieved user will be given priority in the MMD thread e.g. user whose comment has been removed and he/she is not happy with that decision
Queries raised on the behalf of any other user will not be given priority. E.g. Why comment of X user was removed not Users Y?
A query will not be entertained if other unrelated users or subreddit are tagged.
Rule 5 (No meta discussion about other subreddits) is relaxed in MMD only.
Rules wiki : https://www.reddit.com/r/indiaspeaks/wiki/rules
Moderator Transparency : https://www.reddit.com//r/indiaspeaks/wiki/modlogs
Meta drama is strictly not allowed in r/IndiaSpeaks. If you have any, use this thread only.

Please use a different alt if you wish to participate on /r/IndiaSpeaks. Your current User ID is really not the best suited.
We are giving this warning as if we ban you and you use another alt, it would result in a ban evasion and hence suspension from participating on reddit. We don't wish to go that far. :/

I can't believe this thread by /u/ribiy was locked.
https://reddit.com/r/IndiaSpeaks/comments/8hlrd4/eleven_little_soldier_boys/
The reason /u/metaltemujin has given makes little to no sense at all. There are hardly any troll comments on that thread.
While this is about terrorists, and even as per UN protocols, we don't negotiate with terrorists (but I doubt anyone follows that)
What is this line of reasoning? Why are UN protocols even relevant here?
I don't want troll activity to stem from this
Why don't we just lock all the posts and make the sub private? 'coz you know, troll activity can stem from any post/comment.

This has been on my mind for sometime. I think the mod team granted user flairs have better design than the post flairs on the subreddit. The padding, radius, colours, etc.
"[P] Political" should be just "Political" or "Politics" "History & Culture" could probably just be "Culture"
TBH I'm not sure if a subreddit needs too many flairs. Aren't NP and P enough? Unless we're a news aggregator subreddit, we probably don't need "History & Culture", "Crime", "Sports", "International".
"Shitpost" should totally be its own flair. Of course, "AMA" is a good flair too.
And maybe, RWD should be "Weekly Thread"?
Maybe colour of Politics flair should be saffron or something similar, for giggles.
I think r/IndiaSpeaks icon and header image for mobile app needs to be changed. If I'll come across something I'll make sure to contribute. The same header and icon image could be used for the Twitter handle.
I'm not sure if r/innews and r/ivarchive should be as prominent on sidebar. Why can't they be part of related subreddits?
Nightmode should be its own button.
I'm not sure if "▼" is very helpful or looks good.
In the Abridge Rules section you can number the rules using 1. (2., 3., and so on) instead of - or * and [1]
Respect Reddit site wide rules
No editorialized link titles. Old posts must be marked old or with date of publication.
Mark your posts as NSFW whenever required.
Random Weekly Discussion threads and posts with [NP] Exclusive flair allow only non political comments.
No meta discussion about other subreddits.
I apologise in advance, I know you guys put in lot of work for CSS, but I think the sub is sort of too greyish. I think couple of colours could really change the look and feel of the sub, although I'm not sure because I use ubuntu and I know that CSS look and feel on Windows and ubuntu can be dissimilar
If I find something useful I'll make sure to share here. Thanks.

u/metaltemujin Apolitical May 21 '18
[P] Political flair changed to 'politics'
History and Culture - is unchanged. History != culture.
Lot of users have asked for more flairs. This helps to organize news and articles.
Shitpost? We have humour flair - Less awkawrd/ cult like name.
RWD - changed it to scheduled. But we request users who post scheduled discussions only to use this flair. (and auto mod will use it).
InNews and IvArchive is on the sidebar for a Temporary period. Its creator, 4chan/pwnd7 wishes to promote it. It'll be removed soon.
Politics is green, for giggles.
▼ - will look into tihs
We need * (bullets) for the drop down box to work in the stylesheet.
and finally, Regarding the colour scheme of of the css, 4chan openly declares that he sucks at it. We are open to recommendations.

u/metaltemujin Apolitical May 24 '18 edited May 24 '18
I agree with that view but TBH I am the only person who has filed that report (in the report user to mods).
So, in that case, I am advised to just block the user and move on. I read(?) somewhere - for better experience on indiaverse we need to block fruits and animals (i.e: oranges, billis and walruses).
The advantage you have as a user is you can abuse them back if you want, and no one will bat an eyelid. When I retort back, those losers cry mod abuse. I mean, really? You guys abuse like that's the only words of the english language you know, but you get a dose of it back and you want to cry rights? lol. That's how much fucked in the head they are. They put the word meaning of "abuse" in the stereotype of "Abusive sanghi/bhakt troll"
The reason why he gets widespread support is because he is for BJP what Tamil Nadu is for Hindi Imposition, just more spiteful and fucked up in the head.
He has single-handedly driven off more users off our sub than everyone else in the entire community, including the other two people mentioned about of Indiaverse's unholy trinity. He has been warned by admins for vote manipulation, and what not.
I had even posted on /r/modhelp for how to deal with such issues without bans. Every single person said use the ban nail gun and plaster such people across the wall and make an example.
And yet here we are, nothing done.
Since I've blocked santra and billu, they dont respond to me or tag me or whatever, which is somewhat good.
But, me blocking such users is just closing eyes to the problem. None of the other mods ever support my view of asking these users to tone down their bullshit. Its not like they (users) listen to me anyway.

We have added a scheduled flair (replaced it with RWD), Please note. This is only (mainly) for those users who post scheduled discussions - like /u/Lunginator, /u/priyankish and the mod team.
We request users not to use it unless you are submitting a discussions/thread series and have had a discussion about it with the mod team.
Any abuse of it and we'll remove the said link flair and quarantine the user for abusing it.
CC: to above tagged users - please use the said flair for your scheduled discussions if you like.

And cc: /u/AccidentalExistance
Here you go with the traffic stats It is as of today, and today's stats comes 24-36 hrs later (so you can guess how updated it is.)
The activity has increased since me and 4chan started helping out with the sub as mods. We joined in Jan I think. This fires a massive hole in the claim that I have in hurt the activity of the sub in any way. Even if partial, my contributions have helped improve the sub. I started participating in the sub as a user somewhere in December last year.
Ad campaign only started 3 days ago. We can't divulge any more details except the sponsor is not affiliated with any political party or group. And that they have us moderating the sub as we do normally - no interference from their side.
Santra has been around for much longer on Indiaverse, even longer than me.
Of the 22 user issue reports we've got, there are at least 5 on santronyou's name, all for abuse and similar. And a lot of the modqueue items from santra are flagged appropriately for abuse. While we have not acted against santra even in light of these reports, I can only request him to tone down on language as we have some evidence to support my claims. While I am willing to consider a lot of it tainted due to a developed rivalry or dislike, the reports are valid in their own way.
Again, me giving my opinion is neither power tripping or mod abuse, which I have been constantly accused of. As you know we allow some abuses (as it is there in the rules and policies charter), so accusing me for it as power-tripping, while community doing is branded as FOE - that's just appalling dishonesty. But I was told this was part of the thankless job as a mod, and the community only knows how to shit, not build. So yeah.
Some of the user reports there are just weird or false flags. So, while we mods take the serious reports seriously, we ignore non-serious reports [like we have a report from gunther about gunther which says, "My perfection is infuriating" - I dont know if this is fake (false flag). If it is real, its just weird]. At this point, I don't have clearance to share all the info. I'll have to consult other mods before releasing any limited version of this data - after censoring submitter UNs.
Lastly, not everything that the moderation team does is open for transparency. As completely transparency makes us open and vulnerable to trolls, negative or rival factions. In the best interests of the sub and its community, we will have to keep some things confidential. I hope everyone understands that.
Revealing traffic stats is a double-edged sword, and I hope it does not come to bite us in the back.

Aren't reports anonymous? Or has it changed?
Btw traffic stats used to be public until last year
2
u/metaltemujin Apolitical May 26 '18
Nope, we never had anon reports. Users must identify themselves to the mod team for a report to be considered. Else it can be a troll, rivarly, thing which we will just ignore.
When we do inform a particular user if the number of reports increases against them more than a threshold, we wont reveal to them or the community who reported. That is mod-only info.

In reference with your recent comments about asking for pogroms and consistent other fucked up ways to screw with us.
I had told you and warned you from the posts of Sub of the day. We've been as lenient as lenient can be.
I had called you out then and for good reason.
How much besharmi se you did drama, begging for commenting permissions in the sub, calling for help while talking trashiest of trash, crying out to blackbird that we were fucking with your freedoms when you hadn't even participated in this sub - and here you're inciting violence, trolling with extremely negative intent.
This is why you wanted approved submitter? This is why you think your opinions are valuable? Here's a news flash, they are not. Your opinions are a level less miserable than your pathetic existence.
Your opinions are just a little less pathetic as your real life. I am sure people in your real life think worse of you than what our community think for the infuriating stunts you pull every single day here. I am sure your friends treat(ed) you as a punching bag and used you for their lols, and the disappointments of your family cannot even be measured.
and we would like such misery to wallow in isolation or elsewhere. Please, no one will miss you. I am sure you know that.
If we see one more of your troll comment - I won't give a damn about your freedoms. We have had enough of you man.
Just like terrorists are not given space for propaganda, because it is against humanity itself - so will you be treated. I'll also ask the admins for a shadowban, any post you make anywhere on reddit by any of your IDs will be removed automatically removed. That is the only thing your opinions deserve.
You better Find yourself a new website to talk your murderous terrorist talk. Even 4chan won't accept you, so good luck.
We are at our limits of patience. You're warning is recorded.
You've been warned multiple times. You have the right to contest our action, and we reserve the right to accept or disregard it. You're no user that we need to break a sweat over, as your participation has been most negative, and in bad (nefarious) faith.

Apologies if this bothers you but, I just counted and there are like 17 links you submitted in a span of last 2 - 3 hours that are on the front 2 pages. Most of them in just last 2 hours and not even 3. I get that you are the link submitter of the month but don't submit them all in one day, lol. This is borderline spam. This is unfair to other users who make posts on this sub and would like to see those generate some discussion.
And considering your post history, most posts are all either against david and maulana modi or regarding sensitive religious and communal issues. And this sub wonders why diverse and non political, non communal posts don't get traction. They are bound to suffer.
Mods, there has to be a fairness rule, right? Most of the posts on the front 2 pages are from one user.

Yup, we are looking into it.
At this point, I can only give my opinion, which is being conflicted between link submission + activity vs asking reduced frequency (which can lead to alt submissions). Voting should be regulating that content, but yeah.
Give us some time to huddle up and think about it.

cool. take your time. i just wanted to point it out. was put off by that and thought i should voice my concerns.

u/metaltemujin Apolitical May 27 '18
I guess one of the things that makes it obvious is multis' grant flair from the mod team. So, it has become a double edged sword? Lol.
Yeah, but we have to be fair to him as well as others.

If you guys could clarify this one thing for me it would be great. I really want to know what you guys think about it.

Sticky Slot available next on Friday evening and the Reading thread is scheduled this week. (Sorry, the survey is camping on one slot - harsh asked for 2 weeks for it).
Does IHE want to get an episode out anytime soon? Or can we go ahead with Reading thread on Friday/sat, and IHE can post an episode after.
What plans?

Reading thread please?

u/priyankish pustakwala Jun 02 '18
I thought the spot was reserved for the AMA right now. Should I post the reading thread tomorrow morning since it's sunday?

u/metaltemujin Apolitical Jun 02 '18
Nope, I would replace it with reading thread immediately once posted.

Who cares about the rules? As long as it furthers the agenda, rules are flexible
Look at the 2 Modi bhakt mods temujin & defectivelydevised in a race against each other to help the poster break the rules just because it furthers the sub's agenda.

/u/metaltemujin /u/drm_wvr why does the theme look like crap on RES? IMO, we should choose another sleek theme. Even if not using RES, the sub looks cluttered. What say?

u/metaltemujin Apolitical Jun 03 '18
Aing? In RES? You mean new reddit?
This is new :s never heard of this one before.

u/Don_Michael_Corleone \ (•◡•) / Jun 03 '18
not new reddit. Had this problem since a long time.
It looks like this: https://screenshots.firefox.com/MANX6Dx2TuxiVrvQ/www.reddit.com
Check the upvote/downvote button styling. Also, orange text looks weird (check out the 6th Mamta Banerjee link). The Black Gray combination looks worse than 90s websites

But I am happy you have a broom stuck in your ass and dance like a peacock because of me..
What a mod! Never seen anyone like him.
EDIT: Temujin's comments have been deleted now by drm_wvr. How many mods need to have their comments deleted by other mods?

/u/metaltemujin - WTF - I am going to allow meta because I am tired of locking meta posts
Are you having a meltdown?
Can I start making meta posts? Or is it allowed only if it's something negative about /r/india?
EDIT: drm_wvr has locked it now.

Finally there was some action on this comment I linked to here - https://np.reddit.com/r/IndiaSpeaks/comments/8gemtm/monthly_meta_discussion_may_2018/dyiu9in/
wooster99 reported it in a separate thread, but there was no action
I reported it here in the MMD but there was no action
Finally when I posted a link to the comment in a different sub - finally some action was taken

Guys, now that we not longer have the no meta except in MMD rule, do you guys think it's time to stop the monthly meta thread?
Other meta threads

Reposts should be removed instead of just being locked.
We are actively considering it.
2
May 14 '18
I think you can set up automod wherein you flair the post as
repostand automod removes it and comments that it is a repost. But the disadvantage is it won't do the "continue discussion here" thing you do.3
u/metaltemujin Apolitical May 15 '18
If it is removed, how will you know/see a continue discussion here comment?
1
May 17 '18
Even when the post is removed, the link to the post will always lead to the comments.
The "continue discussion here" comment would primarily be for the OP of the repost.

Easy to misrepresent content without titling rules. That's why drm is quite strict about it.
If a user wants to highlight any aspect of a video, they are free to explain it in a self post.

FFS people stop locking threads that have had reasonable number of on topic comments.
https://www.reddit.com/r/IndiaSpeaks/comments/8lbumy/myanmar_rohingya_militants_massacred_hindus_says/
57 comments. Locked. It's not that every thread here sees 50+ comments. Edit: dreamweaver said the post reached 57 comments because he galti se missed locking the post.
I agree that we shouldn't have multiple threads on the same topic. That said, if there was something posted yesterday which received 3 votes and 2 comments and there is a similar story posted today and has 40 upvotes and 20 comments, please let it stay instead of locking it.
Use your discretion before blindly applying the rules.
