So, votes on both mouthpiece edits were abused due to merging/unmerging? Well, that’s even worse then I initially thought

@Aponty
 
You call out those specific people then, you report comments you consider bigoted. But the notion of banning anything specific, because a few individuals MIGHT rally behind is ridiculous. Fight the people that actually spread hatred, not some specific kind of art. I would be a thousand times more concerned about people the likes of Joseph Paul Watson than i would be of people creating nazi mlp art.

It wasn’t a regular automatic dupe merging with “better”, it was dedicated dupe report by the artist and the mods just assumed goodwill and didn’t check that the contents are actually different enough for it to not be a duplicate.  
But yes, it should be a R6 violation, specifically extension of the “do not game the vote system” point.

@NamelessNP  

 
Seems the case to me.

@aperture_tech
 
It should definitely be considered a rule 6 violation

@Background Pony #6CD0  
Doing things like that ought to warrant a ban if done on purpose and any upvotes should be wiped off the new image upon unmerging.

Also keep sending people to post gore once a day, it’s adorable.

@Barhandar
 
Someone posts “Get a load of this retard!” on 4chan.

For the same reason many people prefer to stand and resist instead of fleeing. Running away from the problems won’t fix them.  
Of course we have alternatives but does not means for us who have been here for years we should go because some newbies came in to be offended.

First, the “pedophiles” won’t generally work because SJW harbors MAPs, i.e. literal pedophiles trying to avoid retribution by changing their presentation, but not their actions - you need to get up close and personal, and then going after foalcon does sometimes work. Second, Twitter has way more nazis. So does FA. And glutamate. And DA (75k images in fact, compared to Derpi’s 3.6k).  
It is not about nazis. It was never about nazis. “Nazi” is just a bludgeon they’re trying to beat people into submission with, same way it was “violent videogames”, “satanic messages in music”, “financial conspiracy”, “homosexual agenda”, “being a witch” etc etc etc many times before.
 
@Background Pony #6CD0  
And because staff apparently can’t wipe those.
 
@Background Pony #EFB2  

Give even a single shred of proof that brigading happened (downvotes are not brigading when people dislike the image individually), that edits weren’t immediately taken down, and that personal attacks happened and also weren’t taken down in short order.  
Go on. Provide proof.  
You won’t, because even if the proof exists, it proves you wrong. This is why y’all always resort to lying, to emotional, false claims, to cherry-picking - the actual sources are against you.
 
You’ll also have to provide proof that banning “nazi content” will stop any of that; a very strong proof, given “brigading, edits and personal attacks” are not causally related to “nazi” in any way, shape, or form.  
^{If anything, brigading-edits-“attacks” are strongly causally related to “posting crime and personal-property-destruction propaganda and refusing to understand why that is wrong”.}

@Infinite Winter  
The first page only has all those upvotes because they intentionally merged the edit on top of the original to fake it having that much traction to begin with, and even after unmerging the mouthpiece edit kept all the original stats. It’s an absolutely dishonest tactic.

@Aponty  
Literally 1000 years of hate and bigotry. /s  
Care to bring proof of that?  
Even your terrible mouthpiece remake of the porn comic has a score of 85 at the moment. Oh, and your other comic has even more: 1025 upvotes with overall score of 907, which makes it second most upvoted mouthpiece image that is only 15 upvotes after “Stay at home” Fluttershy.  
I have a feeling that you did it intentionally to get a negative score and then use it as argument for hAtEfUl NaZiS

This site was a mistake.

@Background Pony #EFB2  
Honestly. Filtering was always an option.

@Background Pony #D9E3  
Nobody did drive them off. They were fine with the rules of this site for 8 years.  
Do you want to tell us that Dilarus and his sheeple didn’t know that there are Aryanne pics on this site during all this time? They were ok with it before. Suddenly they decided that they aren’t ok with it and they tried to force their own political opinion down the throat of everybody.
 
And you think that the people who are saying that the site was fine all those years and it doesn’t need a radical totalitarian authoritarian censorship did drive them off?  
Fine. It’s ok. Lets drive them off.  
Lets make a poll if they should be Welcome. Lets show them the door.  
Why would you want those people here? What value do they have?  
They antagonize the whole platform.
 
And lets hold them by their own standard for a minute:  
They say that being on a platform where someone else draws a swastika means to support and endorse Nazis. By the same logic you endorse pedophiles when you are uploading something here and someone else uploads foalcon.  
They did use this site for years.  
So those people did support Nazis and Pedophiles for years… by their own logic.  
So Dilarus is a Nazi and a Pedophilia supporter. That he changed his opinion after years doesn’t matter, it never does for the Twitter rage mob. Cancel culture doesn’t care if you might think different now.
 
Should i start the twitter hashtag to go after the Nazi Supporter Dilarus or will you?

@Background Pony #EFB2  
Those are the same people?

@Background Pony #3CE3  

 
How about the self-righteous dummies who proudly cheer about deplatforming artists they should have just filtered?

@Background Pony #9EEB  
The funniest and saddest part of this entire debacle is how wont the anti-“Nazi” side was to act in accordance with the reasoning of actual fascists in their argumentation, positing that particular ideas are unfit for public consumption and dangerous even to show, let alone consider, and to even give them a thought was to cast your entire lot in with them regardless of your actual beliefs.  
Crazy, that.

@Background Pony #D9E3  
They were driven off the site by people brigading their images, uploading unauthorized edits, personally attacking them on their own art … it’s only been a month. Have you forgotten already? Or did you just join the site last week to feed on the delicious drama?

Hopefully the mods, admins, and artists that got scared away stay away. There’s no greater enemy to freedom than self-righteous dummies who become the fascists they claim they’re fighting against.

dilarus doesn’t speak for me, though I do respect a good bit of what he says
 
@Background Pony #D9E3  
how about years of bigotry in the votes and comments? you let something like this fester in any community and it naturally takes over

@Background Pony #EFB2  
They drove themselves off of the site because they saw invisible ghosts.  
Screaming and clutching their pearls the whole way.  
Then screamed louder when people told them they were being hysterical over nothing.

@Skoon  
Yeah, but be fair, they didn’t want to see this site burn to the ground until they were driven off of it.
 
They’re just trying to make it look like it was their idea to leave, and trying to save face after what happened to them here.

@Skoon  
Skoon don’t be silly, you are talking about a slippery slope fallacy.  
Don’t even notice the ten images of foalcon this site has.  
It’s always only had three images.

@Skoon  
I think most the people knew that, first we ban Aryanne, next x thing, the next month we ban Y thing and so.  
It’s never enough to some people the censorship until it fits with their political view and there’s no opposition to that anymore.  
To me that was the real issue since the beginning more than “”“nazis in the fandom”””.
