(02:06:56) +Lich: Now THAT will scare the sekrit klubbers.
(02:07:06) BluRay: its fucking catering to their whims, and its their fucking fault the board is in the state that its in
(02:07:32) +Lich: They don't want the board to die. They just want a private playground.
(02:07:47) BluRay: exactly
(02:07:57) +Lich: This is essentially telling them "if you want the playground to stay open, stop shitting in the sandbox."
(02:08:15) %kami`: theres no way you're going to stop everyone from doing that
(02:08:47) +AoC: I'm out of ideas. Guidelines did improve the situation for a month or so, but without 24/7 moderation we went back to nuking pages. Escalating just made the shitposters post harder and the borderliners more upset with how strict things were
(02:09:07) %kami`: how about we just give them a /nij/ for a week
(02:09:11) %kami`: to see how they like it
(02:09:15) BluRay: NO
(02:09:29) %kami`: welp
(02:09:29) +AoC: well, that's already what we're doing. They had a /nij/ for today
(02:09:29) +Lich: That's fucking retarded. They'll just end up shitting in two boards instead of one.
(02:09:33) +AoC: it was fucking awful
(02:09:53) +Lich: The main deal is dislodging the shitposters so that they all go to a different board.
(02:10:06) +Lich: Then they'll have to fight off an established culture, which is a losing battle.
(02:10:13) %kami`: how are you going to do that
(02:10:23) +Lich: Deleting the board. Weren't you reading?
(02:10:34) %kami`: that's worse than giving them a random board
(02:10:42) %kami`: it would destroy /a/
(02:10:44) +AoC: /a/ would be under siege
(02:10:55) +Lich: Yeah, I know. Which is why /a/ would need about 20 more janitors.
(02:10:57) » Join: newbie|5 ([email protected]) (clones with: +VCR_Working)
(02:10:58) %kami`: that is actually really horrible idea
(02:10:58) » Quit: +VCR_Working ([email protected]) (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
(02:11:00) %kami`: uh no
(02:11:01) » Quit: %Zorpheus ([email protected]) (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
(02:11:02) +Lich: Of course, this means actually hiring janitors.
(02:11:08) +Lich: Which is why it's never going to happen.
(02:11:15) %kami`: you would sacrifice /a/, a board that has decent community
(02:11:22) %kami`: for the shithole that is jp
(02:11:27) %kami`: and without a guarantee
(02:11:32) %kami`: that it would make any differnce
(02:11:36) +Lich: /a/ can hold off the threat if it has proper moderation and user support.
(02:11:39) %kami`: I can guarantee you though

(02:11:39) » ChanServ (+h) Zorpheus
(02:11:46) %kami`: the change to /a/ wold be permanent
(02:11:53) +Lich: Of course, both of these things require moot to actually care.
(02:11:58) +Lich: So it won't happen.
