voat: - have your say
because reddit is cancer
This is place for critical discussion and fun. It isn't a place for naked worship of a website.
Posts should be relevant to voat. This can include
  • highlights of original content or drama from voat in the same way r/4chan serves a taste of that website.
  • technical glitches when accessing voat.co
  • Posts describing what reddit is saying about voat whether it is very smart or very wrong.
  • Posts that critically discuss the structure and administration of voat and how it is similar or different to reddit.
  • Complaints about voat censorship, moderation, adminstration and injustice.
  • Ideas for reddit based on experience drawn from voat.
It is worth remembering that voat is just a student side project. Despite what some users claim, it is an experiment rather than a promise of a better reddit.

Hi Voat, Thanks for the advertisement on your front page.
/r/Voat is a place for redditors to discuss voat.
/r/Voat has a Public moderation log that can be found: https://modlog.github.io/#/r/Voat
This is the "censorship free" subreddit and it is on reddit. Amazing right!
This is a place for critical discussion and fun. Feel free to make your own contributions here.
Also check out /r/voatco, /r/voatdrama, /r/voaters if you want a voaty subreddit.
This message is partly in response to that crazy guy on voat who has been trying for a long time to wrestle this subreddit from me and trying to spoil what we have here. I expect he wants to censor users that he does not agree with and other types of nonsense.
If you are genuinely unhappy with the moderation practices here or have other complaints about reddit, feel free to submit them to /r/Oppression
If you want to make some suggestions for this subreddit, you can leave them here..

Well, maybe censorship free from the moderators end, but reddit admin has final say.
[–]eberkneezer[S] 10 points11 points12 points  (3 children)
If you mean shadow banned users, they can comment here. I will approve their comments within the limits of reddit rules.
I would set automoderator to approve all shadowbanned users in the same way as another subreddit I mod. However, I sense there are some users out there trying to sabotage this subreddit and so we cannot have nice things.
[–]Gridoverflow 1 point2 points3 points  (2 children)
I am pretty sure admins are able to delete post right? I think he meant that as censorship.
[–]eberkneezer[S] 2 points3 points4 points  (1 child)
Admins can remove posts in the same way as moderators and it appears on the moderation logs. I could probably re-approve an admin removal it but have never tried.
Admins won't remove a post unless it is breaking the core rules of reddit like personal information. If I was to circumvent their removals, they would probably ban this subreddit . That doesn't stop mods notifying users of admin removals. It happens in /r/conspiracy on a few occasions

They can also remove them discreetly, but are unlikely to do so.

You're doing fine. A successful Voat would be good for all users. Rabid apologists actually hurt Voat, and trolls are trolls.

I'm pretty sure this is me !
Dude, all I did was call you out on incorrect and overly crazy statements you have made, which is exactly what they were.
Given today's FPH drama I will be the first to admit our arguments are petty in the grand scale of things.
Would you be open to the idea of co-moderating /v/redditinaction (In the top 20 voat subs) with me ?, I would be more than happy to have you act as a check & balance on the sub.
Moving forward it is important that subverses do not become echo-chambers, that is why I have made the above offer.
Lets bury the hatchet and focus on something better than this / more important.
Edit: for the record I have have never banned anyone from redditinaction and have no plans to if it can be avoided, stop spilling your BS dude I am not the person you perceive me to be.
EDIT 2:
sigh After nothing but crickets and downvotes for 13 hours despite my above offer I will now post my documentation to back up my claim that /u/eberkeezner is an squatting on this sub and has an interest in spreading as much misinformation as possible, sadly this is old news on voat:
Tries to convince people voat is a NSA honeypot - http://veuwer.com/2l6o.png
Posting links known to be photoshopped as "proof" - https://archive.is/nggbg
Posts misinformation constantly trying to make voat sound like an oppressive place - https://archive.is/rQLCx
Misinformation about Voat banning users - http://veuwer.com/2l6m.png
Posts insane allegations as facts constantly, never has any proof to back them up - http://veuwer.com/2l6p.png
Called out many times for posting insane allegations with no proof - http://veuwer.com/2l6q.png
for a mod of /r/voat you sure do hate voat - http://veuwer.com/2l6r.png
Misinformation, voat has no such thing as subs - http://veuwer.com/2l6n.png
Hail Satan = Voat - http://veuwer.com/2l6l.png Has been spun off as "totally joking guise!! but was given in a serious context to discredit voat at the time"
non sub specific, but useful for for context
Sometimes he likes coming into other subs and call me names - http://veuwer.com/2l6s.png I challenge him to produce a screenshot of me acting the same way.
Fill out the voat moderation form today ! - https://archive.is/aIyzQ
This is old news on voat.co ofcourse, Several times when this place had like 140 subscribers I have offered to co-mod this sub as a means to prove he is not a squatter and just misunderstood, so today to prove I am not out to get him but simply cataloging and documenting the proof of his very obvious agenda I will gladly offer him a seat as a moderator on the very sub he believes is "harassing him" to act as an independent party and ensure voat.co/v/redditinaction does not become an echo-chamber.
so there you go:

Is a crock.

lol didn't read this . He was still asking to be a mod here in PMs today but I'm not feeding him today. The avalanche on reddit is far too interesting compared to this delicate snowflake

Are you serious right now ????
My only PM to you in months was yesterday inviting you to moderate my subverse on voat. - http://veuwer.com/2l76.png
I even went out of my way to try and grab your attention in another sub so we could have a civil conversation about you modding one of MY subverses -http://veuwer.com/2l77.png
[–]rfry11 3 points4 points5 points  (1 child)
You might want to be a little more honest about yourself online, it's obvious that you have a mental illness. But it's totally okay, I have one too, you just have to remember to not get too wrapped up in the Internet.
Right now you're doing a pretty good job modding r/Voat, but you need to remember that you're doing this so that other people can enjoy themselves and share ideas. Being free of censorship is easy, but you have to remember that that's not what makes a community. The ability for people to contribute and share ideas needs to be fostered in ways other than just allowing everyone their say. Your opinion doesn't matter, allowing the community free reign to debate, discuss, and develop opinions is what matters.
[–]eberkneezer[S] -3 points-2 points-1 points  (0 children)
ok. So you obviously judge people based on a series of quotes taken out of context and serving the agenda of a dedicated troll. You realise he is trying to start shit because he wants to mod here in order to censor content and serve his own vanity.
So I agree with you . My opinion does not matter. So why do you think Sirinon so fixated on my opinon and maybe you too ?. The important thing is that I have an opinion. I start discussions to create content here and allows others to contribute and discuss their ideas with them. That is what builds a community in its early stages. The cost of doing that is that I get a bunch of trolls who are here for blood and not here to contribute to the discussion.
So what exactly is your point ? What would you do better ? Remember, this is a sub for critical discussion. It is not your little circlejerk . People can have any opinion they like. You don't have to agree but you can contribute to the discussion. Attacking users based on "mental illness" just shows that you have nothing of interest to contribute to the discussion.
