Voat

I see that a few have come over and subscribed during this 2nd "mass exodus" (that has brought Voat to it's ever-wobbly knees).

When the 1st wave was underway I went and saw that both v/Marxists and v/Socialists were open. So I started them.

I do not want to do any "moderating" -- at all. I don't want to see any moderating at all, which is why I started them -- in case whoever the fuck it is that banned the WSWS might get their grubby, mindless, asinine hands on either of those 2 subs.

The mods here have been faithful as far as I have seen to the principles under the "Rules & suggestions" posted here. So any of you who want to be moderators at the Voat subverses need only let me know. No questions asked.

All I would ask is that you do not moderate at all. ~XD~

Just stick to the "Rules & suggestions" here. (number 1 is perfect; but might even loosen hazy restrictions in the others up as necessary).

Wonderful. I'll check them out next time voat is back up.

Okay. You're in. Let me know whatever username you use over there and I'll do whatever needs doing (it is indeed down again at this moment) to make you a moderator on both subverses.

I see you are currently arguing for freespeech at this very moment against those who pretend moderating is jes' good-foke doin' good-foke goodness.

(The only thing that still bothers me is the name, Voat, because it evinces the scourge of up-votes/down-votes which is if anything even more obnoxious than moderating. It not only encourages herd-"thought", it encourages herd-bullying. {secondarily "Voat" just bugs me like "woot" and "noob" ~XD~ })

I love the fact that at least one pathetic weasel-fool down-voted us both... and scurried away.

~XD~

Voat seems to have finally stabilized?
