Now that the dust has settled, I've been noticing a bit of a trend on this board already starting to crop up. Given that this is a brand new board (and confirmed to be a permanent hidden board), I think it would be a good idea and look at the board itself and at least set some sort of guidelines to posting quality content. I doubt the mods care enough to give us our own specific sticky (or even moderate it at all), but it'd be nice if this place doesn't just become another /trash/ with 100% more pony stuff.
And on the /pol/ side of things, I definitely want to preserve the political nature of /pol/, but without all the shitposting. Let us not forget that this is /mlpol/, not /mlp/. I'm totally cool with pony related threads, but honestly I'd prefer them to at least have SOMETHING to do with politics. A lot of the threads I'm seeing are just straight up porn threads, or something that would probably sit better on /mlp/ (or even /trash/, I mean diaper pony thread? Seriously?) rather than a more political space. Some of them are even just obvious shitposting for the sake of shitposting. Remember that the reason why /pol/ became such a shithole was because of all the shitposting and shilling that was going on. If we want to have a good quality board, and not just another trashbin, we need to understand that shitposting has an averse affect on boards when it becomes the standard rather than the exception.
So I guess I'm making this thread to discuss the meta of the board. I really want this board to bee successful, because I want a good alternative to /pol/ that isn't an absolute shitposting reddit shillfuck haven. I don't want this place to become that. So I wanted to hear all your thoughts on the matter.
/mlp/ is a blue board so porn is not allowed there, ponyshit is also banned on every board except for this one and /mlp/. As is to be expected our equine allies are rather excited that they finally have a place to openly jack off with friends. The amount of porn threads will most likely decrease as the board ages and generals will inevitably crop up, simply hide those if you don't care for them. At least horsefuckers usually hate furfag tier shit, and I commend them for that.
Actually saging/not replying to gay ass reddit tier threads is a good start
>>180195
>/mlp/ is a blue board so porn is not allowed there
/trash/ exists, and has plenty of pony threads. Even character-specific threads.
>>>/trash/
This is why I think porn threads on /mlpol/ are redundant. There's already a board for that.
>>180089
I think its nice. I have a new folder with just for Filly and most of the catalog has threads that somewhat related to politics with equal amounts of just pony threads, obviously racebaiting or drumpf threads get slid hard which is great.
>>180089
As long as /mlpol/ doesn't fall for the same shitposting traps (i.e. "drumpf btfo", etc.) we can remain a strong competitor for /pol/ and hopefully the internal competition increases the quality of both boards. When all you have to compare yourself to is reddit, it's easy to lower your standards
>>180195
/trash/ should keep the horsepussy threads contained. but there's no guarantee.
If there is one thing i know about /mlp/ is if you make it a rule we will do everything in our power to break it. I say we leave the porn rule out. We have been doing fine about it not getting out of hand
We need to write a new sticky for the mods ITT
Also we have to get everyone to stick to one meta thread, half of the board is meta threads right now
>>180089
I think we can accomplish this, but I don't think we can force mlp or pol content in every thread, if we can for some threads, cool, but if we can't, that's cool too.
>>180089
anon the simple answer is if you make a thread it either has to be about pony and politics, discussing the show and politics, or your opinion on what about horses makes them great horses. also porn on shill threads. as long as /mlp/ and /pol/ are reppresented equally we will be ok.
>>180089
we will continue to keep the normies away as a passive and free service.
never forget what happens when horse pussy is absent from the catalog. /mlp/ is proof of this. all the redditfags swarm in and take over.
>>180089
>>180250
>>180204
>>180195
Pony porn is exactly what solves the bureaucratic agenda pushing of shills. It brings back the best of both /mlp/ and /pol/ communities without taking the bad. Corporations, politicians, real nazis and SJW groups do not want to be associated with this.
As is this board is my favorite page on the internet. I say don't force it, and don't throw on rules. A light hearted fuck you to the completely hostile identity politics driven world we live in. Plus it's fucking hidden away. A secret bastion of liberty.
Laying down ground rules like these will only destroy it. If you fags don't like it /pol/ and /mlp/ fucking exist so fuck the fuck off.
>>180089
It won't hurt if we establish some standard way to "tag" threads. There are inevitably going to be threads which have little to do with politics like porn threads. Maybe include "-mlp-" in pure pony thread titles, and maybe something similar for pure pol threads, so that people can easily filter it. (or just "/mlp/", but that would interfere with regexp, even if it can be escaped, it's unnecessary to make it harder)
>>180089
I think there should be pony threads, politics threads and threads that have to do with both.
It's just hard to find overlap, you know?
>>180250
Dude every attempt at a shill thread so far has been derailed and killed by pony porn. Keep it.
>>180461
Kind of agree. Let the board grow organically, only organise against shill/bait threads to keep the quality up.
>>180444
This. We get shill free /pol/, you pop in, post a few horsecocks, have a jerk and keep away normies. Fucking beautiful.
>>180416
This, we need to accept there will be some /pol/-centric threads and /mlp/-centric threads
We have to work together to maintain a balance
If theres a major happening, the board should belong to that happening for the time being
If theres 90% /pol/ threads and you want to start another political compass thread, you should probably refrain from that
Pony posters, if theres 3 different threads up for porn/cut ponies, we dont need a 4th
Threads where the topic allows genuine crossover will happen naturally, forcing them will ruin the /pol/ side and the /mlp/ side
>>180195
>>180611
>>180699
Remember that /pol/ is overloaded by shills /mlpol/ is not
Honestly I can not wait for HWNDU S5 where we have capture the flag /pol/ vs /mlpol/ version
>>180699
You have to fuck the horse pussy, Anon.
>>180089
But then it'd be 200% cooler! :^)
>>180699
Actually think about this anon. Would you go to the My little pony porn board? Not many on this site would rather than out of curiosity. If you were here when the boards were merged, all the BLACKED, Drumpf BTFO, is X white etc. threads disappeared. No one apart from the bronies wants to see pic related, it immunizes us from shilling. They get their porn board, we get our under the radar politics board where we can launch raids and blame r/pol/ for it.
>>180699
horsepussy keeps the shills away you knob
>>180699
fucking shills man trying to trick us into getting rid of our defense.
>>180089
>not posting the entire thing
>>180896
Out of curiosity I am really wondering how many people that only went to /pol/ beforehand have been influenced by the poni pusi the past 2 days .
On a separate note do you guys think that episode threads will be a thing with season 7 coming up soon, I think it would be pretty neat to see people discuss the political parts of the show andto also have a place to show off the newest porn.
>>181063
Probably a few. I've been building a small folder to fuck up off topic or low effort shitpost threads with from rule34 but I like real porn desu.
Critiques please.
>>181218
Change the first rule to no one talks about /mlpol/ or that /mlpol/ doesn't exist.
>>181218
Change normie to normalfag, normie's is co-opted now
Otherwise neat

>>181407
and I didnt even post a image with it....
does anyone else have that fuzzy feeling like we are part of something big right now.
>>180558
Try and use pony reaction images, even if you're not a ponyfriend. Gives the board a unique flavour
>>181463
Yes, just remember, everything in moderation
It's not much of a board if all you do is talk about how cool the board is
shut it, the default sticky is enough. How did you think /b/ got by back in the day? The sticky is enough to shame newfags into conforming.
Don't try to regulate it, shills love regulation jobs.
>>181258
But I don't go to /vp/.
>>181418
if its your first day on /mlpol/ you have to lurk
Reminder to use 4chanX for a chilled lurking experience and Oneechan for piss easy custom CSS. Both are compatible.
4chanX allows you to:
instantly access the archives, be it to search a post for pastas, search for matching filenames to see the posting history of other people and much more
easier sauce-finding (especially for animu)
advanced link embedding
filter anything by absolutely any category, flags, image-hashes, posts, subjects, tripcodes, namefags
advanced webm viewing (view on mouseover, pause on mouse-off, shared & constant sound volume)
User scripts like one-click sage etc
Oneechan allows you you to even further customize your 4chan skin. CSS has never been this easy even if you're a complete amateur.

Wouldn't it just be a narcissist board?
Kinda perfect for Trump fans, dude... Boards are only squandered when people try and be the "heroes"
It loses the anon spirit if shit doesn't happen organically.

I forgot the most important rule after I started to rearrange them.
Article 1 Section 3:
PONIES ALLOWED, NO EXCEPTIONS.
>>181782
Since the ponybros helped us out, I think their right to post ponies should be written in this constitution so in the future when /pol/acks try to push it out it is protected "the right of posting mlp ponies/lewds shall not be infringed" or something to that degree
>>181782
Needs an explicit clause that shill threads are for dumping pony porn.
>>181899
>>181929
can't really argue against ponies if the board name is a reference to them.
If the board was named "My little politics can't be this cute" people wouldn't sperg out against anime as they used to.
>>181959
this and >>181929 this. That logo is pretty cool too anon. Just make the horse look like less of a pussy an whack that on the edicts

You inspired me to throw this together
>We the memers of /pol/ and /mlp/, in order to form a more perfect board, establish discourse, ensure conversation is shill-free, provide for the common defense, ensure the general welfare, and secure the blessings of memery to ourselves and our posterity do ordain and establish this constitution for the United Board of /mlpol/.
>>182041
A well regulated porn Militia, being necessary to the security of a shill free State, the right of the people to keep and bear pony porn, shall not be infringed.
>>182040
now we just need no reddit and we are sweet
>>182040
does the racemixing term exclude horsefucking?
I am going to have so much fun weaponizing pony porn against reddit threads.
>>181959
>>182033
>>182153
Of course not, that would be species mixing, completely different
>>182153
but anon x horse is the purest form of love.
Instead of flags we should be able to choose a /pol/ icon or an /mlp/ icon
this board is comfy af
>>182232
No we need flags to tell Leafs to fuck off
>>182232
Flags are an important part of /pol/, and honestly, I've always liked being able to see how many different countries are represented here.
>>182232
Nah, we're all in this together now. No need to invite further division.
>>182252
Agreed. Flags are essential to /pol/ and know /mlpol/
>>182289
Leaf or not, if you can't handle someone shitting on your flag, you don't belong here. Just like fi you can't ignore the horse pussy, you don't belong here.
Fucking normalfags.
>>182164
How should we handle General threads? Hearing a lot that they ruined both parent communities.
>>182344
This.
We have created a board where people not only get told to fuck off, they CHOOSE to, because they can't handle it.

raids dont last forever. Having a couple of consecutive threads =!= generals.
Do you really want the facebook-tier chit-chat that /int/ has become? on /mlpol/?
>>182566
Discord is better than generals and can be used for raids. This is the compromise that defines our weird unity.
>>182586
I don't go on /int/ so I really wouldn't know what it's like. /fit/, /pol/ and /ck/
Are there any reasons to go back to mlp or pol if we have this?

>>182688
A leaf with some foresight! Also Generals are great for specific happenings. What's everyone's problem with generals? That they get shilled? I't's still better to organize than not.
>>182041
breddy gud
>>182688
No.
Generals encourage namefagging and blogposting.
You can just make a thread about a certain event happening in your country.
For example, the "QandA" threads that aussie posters make on /pol/.
While I agree that some generals on /pol/ are acceptable, some of them aren't and almost all the generals on /mlp/ are cancer.
Happenings are better than Generals.
>>182741
Okay, /pol/ generals are good. I don't know what /mlp/ degenerated them into. But Syrian General, Trump general Even HWNDU Happening threads with links where you are watching news and events across multiple platforms in real time need to stay alive. The Chicago Dispatch General from yesterday is a good example. Those can be comfy threads.
>>182727
There are people here who write "everypony"unless in green
That is tumblr-tier cringe worthy
make it stop
>>182768
The issue of generals seems to be the hardest one to resolve. I like the idea of allowing happening threads. If a happening is going on, it keeps getting a thread. If it stops, the thread dies. It also prevents the shitty attempts at making generals on /pol/.
>>182828
Writing everypony scares away the normies anon.
>>182688
no we don't. Generals are generally low quality, repetitive meme garbage.
As I've said above, a few consecutive threads =!= generals. If you let some people shelter themselves in repetitive threads they'll occupy a considerable amount of your board with their general + generals that hit the bump limit. The more generals, the less actual on-topic threads.
By not promoting repetitive posting/thread patterns you'll also keep reddit out.
Voting is still 2 to 1 against generals
http://www.strawpoll.me/12664922
Vote your beliefs because this board needs to be perfect
Happening threads are relevant.
Syria General is an ongoing happening so it remains relevant. When based Assad has his final victory there will be no need for a Syria General so it should be culled.
Trump generals are disgusting, we don't need them anymore they should be culled.
>>182727

>>182808
>>182875
There needs to be some sort of balance. Otherwise you'll end up with a /v/ and /vg/ situation. There's a difference between eternal meta threads (eg. dazzling general #5934905) and general DISCUSSION threads (eg. /Eirepol/, /canpol/, etc.). Those will rarely last more than 2 in a row and pop up when needed. A blanket ban on generals would stop these important threads from happening.
>>180960
Well written. Truly.
>>182895
Remember there's still /pol/ and /mlp/ for generals.
>>182901
Perfect example of the difference between a happening thread and a general.
Syria general only pops up when something noteworthy happens.
Trump General just bumps around the board being a unnecessary redditfag homeground.
>>182932
I agree with this. Unless it is somewhat related to pony, /pol/ generals need to stay away.
>>182186
Damn straight.
>>182826
>>182843
>>182875
>>182942
Short lived generals are fine.
Long term generals promote cancer no matter the subject, i have first hand experience of the /pol/ side in brit/pol/, hopefully this time we can keep out the fucking retards but the rest of you faggots need to be ready to slap our shit if we start tripfagging.
I think the best solution is that if you want to have generals go to your respective boards since they'll always be there.
agree/deny?
I like how civil this thread is right now
>>182995
>I think the best solution is that if you want to have generals go to your respective boards since they'll always be there.
And that's why you're my favourite son
>>182995
Unrelated mlp generals can go on /mlp/ and /trash/. /pol/ generals can go on /pol/. So pretty much.
>>182995
This is a good point. Also that means that Happening threads can be an alert that there may be something at the main threads of value too, can't be too comfy as a /pol/ack
>>182966
I think the compromise we should go for is allowing happening threads. If a happening stops, the thread will die out on its own because people lose interest.
Also dubs confirm.
>>182995
The lack of pepes and dumpster fires makes me think we're the master race. See what disappears with the normies? This is why we need this ruleset tight like a horsepussy.
>>182995
I agree, I like my gens, but they belong on our origin boards. Don't really need gens here, just thrads for happening and new eps when they happen, then we let them die and go back to doing us.
>>182942
I only count "eternal" generals as generals.
those are just cancer.
consecutive threads =!= generals.
>>182962
Keep in mind the opportunity for concentrated autistic mischief we have here anon. Politically motivated, shill free, under the radar maymays that get blamed on /pol/. Pony porn means we'll never be as normie as /pol/ (never thought I'd fucking say that) and rigid rules could hinder our fun.
>>182828
No one's telling you to write it anon. If it really bothers you that much get a word replacement add-on for your browser to replace it.
We should get an Episode Discussion series going starting from the first episode, for us /pol/users that are new to the show.
Any interest?
>>183052
I dont have fancy programs. What do you guys think?
>>183109
Go for it Sven, maybe /Episode Review General/ ?
>>183052
I think this is fair, like if something certain is happening in politics we can have one thread dedicated to that until it's over or dies down and same for the ponies' side
>>182942
We're already split between two other boards which can de facto serve as a /vg/.
My take on it is that 24/7 generals should be deleted/shitposted on site.
>>183101got any rare sucys
>>182041
>>182116
>>183095
okay but then that needs to be specified in the rules. otherwise people will forget.
>>183109
Longtime watchers of the show have always loved when new people would show up. Even in the early days when a new person stopped by it was a lot of fun when they would watch the show and tell us what they thought as they were going through it. It was interesting hearing their thoughts on the older episodes some of us hadn't talked about in a while.
>>182995
this is reasonable.
>>183127
I suggest that you remove no. 6 because it'll just attract them.
rule no. 4 is already sufficient while also vague enough for newfags and redditors not to get it
>>183127
Looks good, we need someone to clean it up and add the flag in the background again though
>>183132
Yeah, I can prepare something tomorrow (after I wake up).
Need to sleep now or else i'll mess up my sleeping pattern even more.
>>183169
BEAUTIFUL
>>183169
I don't think we should be stating that the pony porn is intended to deter subversion. People will take that as a challenge and put up with it just to spite us.
>>183177
Sounds good!
>>183184
but then you'll get the shitty WMAF threads from /pol/.
Rule 6 is fine, but if you have a problem with it maybe we can just ban human porn, and make it that only pony porn is allowed.
>>183169
Looking good
Okay so what about pony lewd threads in general, those are covered by rule 3, right? Those are our line of defense against normalfags and reddit and are allowed right?
>>183205
goodnight Sven
>>183169
just from a design perspective maybe move black banner to the top and move the "constitution" part below the rules.And possibly at the bottom add a fancy latin catchphrase, just something I think would look good
>>183169
All it need is Celestia's seal.
>>183222
trips confirm, its best as an unspoken deterrent. the gambit fails when people think were doing it to drive them away rather than actually enjoying it.even though its both.
>>183255
See you tomorrow hans
>>183247
If that the case rule no.6 should be less obvious
>>183264
But we also don't want to get fucked over into not being allowed to post it, we need to make sure everyone understands that it's okay
>>183222
very much this
>>183264
But what if our unspoken ways are lost over time?
>>183295
>>183303
just do it, dont say why. newfags start to mimic the expected behavior even if they dont know why.
>>180089
I believe that as a guideline (not a rule to be hard-enforced by mods) that pony porn should be kept to porn threads and shill threads, and porn threads should try to contain themselves.
Porn is a good deterrent from shills and redditors and if we set hard rules about where porn CAN'T be posted, it might give them the belief that there are safe zones, and we don't want that. I think being courteous to others and having restraint from posting a lot of porn in good threads.
I think it's fine to have pure /pol/ threads and pure /mlp/ threads on the board instead of trying to restrict either. Anyone who's still browsing /mlpol/ after the two boards have separated and this became hidden should have no issue coexisting with the topic they aren't here for, because if they weren't, they would have left at 3AM.
Polite sage should be liberally appliedI think removing visible sage hurt the quality of the site, even though "sage as a downvote" was a problem it now seems like a lot of newfags don't even know sage existsand people need to be able to stop themselves from bumping shill threads.
General threads are fucking terrible, but reading the thread everyone seems to already agree. Other than happening threads or election threads, we should keep general threads out. /ptg/ was fine up to the election, and maybe for a couple weeks after, but I don't think it has a place now. >>182995 has the right idea but >>182688 is a good counterpoint.
tl;dr Don't ban porn but pornposters should be courteous about where they post it, MLP and politics can certainly coexist and should, ignore shill threads, fuck generals
I agree fully with everything posted in >>183169 but the concerns about giving nondesirables a challenge resonate with me. I'm not sure how to reword the phrases that might tempt them, though.
>>183184
>>180461
As a real nazi I'll just say this shit is hilarious. Do what you do. Anons before normalfags and normalfags before plebbit.
>>183303
people will catch on and continue
>>183303
This is essentially secret /pol/ and /mlp/ porn board. So long as it's named as such, it can't really stray too far.
>>183303
>>183295
>>183264
>>183326
"We watch it for the plot."
Short, sweet and anyone not retarded will understand immediately once they see other people posting porn.
>>183243
>>183222
>>183334
This is almost fucking perfect
>>183247
>but then you'll get the shitty WMAF threads from /pol/.
#7 is no race mixing.
>>183362
>returning to our roots
perfect.
>>183169
Why not get another rule to blame all our actions on /pol/ or something similar. Like how infinitechan does it. They take the fall we do all the work behind the scenes
>>182591
Good point.
Someone else will have to make the server though because I'm a lazy faggot.
>>183373
oh yeah.
I'm a fucking sperg, ignore that.
>>183367
remove "the right of the people to keep bear pony porn shall not be infringed".
This board is a red board so porn is already allowed. Best not to mention it because when porn does get dumped it'll act as a surprise factor for the newfags, redditors and shills.
>>183334
This is perfect.
Ok I made a slight splitoff for a suggestion. See number 3 gives enough leeway to fucking wreck reddit, shill, normalfags. Plus we have a natural defense as an unlisted board. I still think happening threads should be recognized and differentiated from generals. IDK what do you guys think?
>>180089
We need strict anti shill/left rules
This isnt regpol, we can get away with censoring reddit
Also there should be clop in many threads, or clop decoy threads. Its degenerate yes, but it keeps the normies out
Essentially this should be right wing, noshill pol with ponies (that may help with redpilling)
Does this feel like a more pol orientated suggestion? Yes, pol has a lot of cancer thst needs to be purged, mlp was, and is, doing fine
Also all mentions of mlpol should be very minimal, preferably only on mlp, as there may be no shills there, but people to redpill
>>180089
As pathetic and sad as it is /mlpol/ has already managed to be less shitposty and more relevant to politics than /pol/.
Just goes to show how far the statr of the board has fallen since being flooded by redditors and leaves
>>180437
I generally support this laissez faire approach. I believe one of the things that's been rejuvenating is the lack of constraint, which has led to the refreshing creativity of the content.
I think my favorite pony is BoJack.
>>183367

>A well regulated.... to.. Porn free state
and it's fine. Otherwise it will be seen as bait
>>183452
ok this is pretty much fucking perfect now
>>180089
Im as against pony porn as you are, but they do help keep away the shills, so let them be
>>180857
Is this... Alex Jones?
>>183047
Plato was shit tier and was improved upon in every way.
alright, what do you guys actually expect to do around here? what thread do you expect to exist? shouldnt the board kind of find its own idea of normal content before we make any hard and fast rules?
obviously the board cant live on posting about how shit /pol/ and /mlp/ are individually or how great this place is without reddit.
>>183452
Happening threads can be just as cancerous as generals, depending on the format and content of the OP, but they're still an integral and unique aspect of /pol/. I believe that warrants their distinction from one another.
one important note,
I think drawthreads should stay because they provide excellent OC for the memewar.
>>183423
Revising as i read, not skipping any comments so I'm a little slower than the feed.
>>183560
This and many of you ponyfags are actually good artists.
>>181701
From the other thread
I threw together a rough draft for laffs
We, horsefuckers and polacks, with our sovereign board, come together in harmony and brotherhood to secure for ourselves and our newfags a board with free and open discussion, a natural defence against the shill, a refuge against the normalfag hordes, and the natural right to a sane, active board.
Article 1 - The Normalfag Hordes
Section 1:
It is the sworn duty of every horsefucker and polack to hide our board from the normalfags. No mention of /mlpol/ shall be made on the Internet, nor in reality. Upon this tenet shall our sanctuary remain pure.
Article 2 - The Duty of the Constituents
Section 1:
This board was forged by brotherhood between polack and horsefucker, and let no wedge come between them. Thus, ponies and politics, of any kind, shall find welcome on our shores.
Section 2:
Every denizen of /mlpol/ shall ignore shills and shill threads.
Section 3:
If, by newfaggotry or mistake, a shill thread is replied to, in such amount that it becomes significant, it must pushed, by sage and clop, to the bump limit.
Section 4:
Every newfag must lurk, until such time that they absorbed the ways of the board, and learned the necessary skills to its survival.
Article 3 - On the Conduct of the Denizens
Section 1:
As has been observed boards abroad, generals slow and clutter a board. As such, they shall be limited to temporary repeating threads, for events and topics that require them.
Section 2:
Let the races of the board remain as they are, pure and untainted.
>>183452
change 8 into "no bait shit" and we're golden.
>>183571
see >>183438 and it'll be perfect
>>183560
Agreed
>>183526
I expect it to just be /mlp/ + /pol/. Standalone threads about the individual topics with crossposting between the two bases and an occasional thread that tries to intentionally mix the two.
Basically you'd see what you see on /pol/ but people would sometimes post ponies, and you'd see what you see on /mlp/ but with a larger amount of Nazi posters.
>>183560
Drawthreads should absolutely be an exception to the "no generals" rule alongside the other exceptions being worked out.
>>183438
This.
Don't lay our strategy out for them.
>>183526
Well we will be doing here what we ment to do on /pol/ , but as you said, without shills, with the /mlp/ related art. Thinking how to improve ourselves, countries we live in, praise some numbers and KEK and do the ususal meme-magic.
>>183578
that's pretty much what we agreed on. We should sit together and phrase the perfect board rules.
>>183452
>>183571
I feel like it needs a number 10 just for aesthetic purposes. 10 is a good number, mirrors the US Bill of Rights.
>>183560
Agreed.
how about Pony related generals if they want it but no other generals.
if a newfag or shill stumbles across mlpol, a pony general will scare them away.
>>183474
I disagree; if nobody talks about /mlpol/, the odds of phone/blog/bog/brapposters leaking into the board are next to nothing. It can't hurt to keep the rule in, but it seems to reiterate what rules 1 and 2 already specify - "don't bring normies here".
>>183571
Looking good, I have no further recommendation.
>>183693
Why does it need to be a general? There'd be other pony threads regardless of whether generals are there or not.
>>180089
I have so many mlpol threads open that I'm opening duplicates of threads just to get back to conversations I was interested in.
>>183688
maybe 10 is our secret rule, where we lewd dump.
>>183646
>how to improve ourselves
That's a nice touch, polski. /pol/ is way too impersonal, maybe a feeling of brotherhood for once is in order.
>>180699
I can't ignore digits. Maybe it's not the porn that keeps them away. Maybe the ponies are legitimately enough.
>>183731
Same
I'm phoneposting as well
>>183578
...dodge. I provided the template if you want to start over with all that.
Here's what I have reading up until this post.
Took out the porn part.
>>183739
No it's the porn you faggot, some of the bots have already started trying to put pony pictures and switch everyone for everypony. They cannot see porn at work or they get promoted to the unemployment line
>>183780
ok this is fucking perfect now, I have no further suggestions
>>181333
the OC is the best part of this merger. Kek loves the power of memetics. Memes get stale. We need cutting edge meme technology and this just might be it.
>>183780
PERFECT
MODS PLEASE STICKY THIS
>>183747
good point
>>183780
however we should allow drawthreads as the only suggestion because the produce great OC.
>>183646
>just /pol/ but with /mlp/ images
that sounds like a raw deal desu. the porn is nice but im sure mulp expects to be able to talk about mulp things as well.
im mostly bringing it up because a large portion of content on /mlp/ comes from generals, and generals form naturally by collecting people who wish to discuss a specific idea for an ongoing amount of time.
im curious what /mlp/ expects to do around here once porn alone gets old.
>>183836
A lot of /pol/lacks are going to start watching the series, which actually have a lot of episodes with relevant cultural or political messages. I think that will fuel a lot of discussions, as well as the ever-present chance of a happening.
HEY ANONS,
DRAWTHREADS SHOULD BE A EXCEPTION BECAUSE THEY PRODUCE QUALITY OC.
>>183836
This desu. The mlp culture has every right to be preserved as ours is. This is a symbiotic relatiomship.
>>183819
I don't think we have mods (I think and hope so).
>>183920
one thread just got pruned when someone posted a winking horse pussy, so we do.
>>183881
This. We aren't archiving, so just don't call it a general and don't link the old thread. Drawfags are a-ok.
Don't let that shit roll eternally and you'll be fine, especially if you link it to happenings or current politics. The OC will always be fresh.
>>183906
>this
Combining our concentrated autism was the best thing since the old invasion threads on /b/.
>>183836
Yy that sounds just fine, I kinda ment the whole purpose of this board, imagery and art threads are also necessary for the power of memetics!
>>183780
Looks great to me.
>>183780
I like it, let it be so
>>183800
I see your point for plebbit and normiefags but I don't see how you can be retarded enough to think that a company whose goal is the change the narrative of Internet converstion is going to run for the hills because there's porn mixed in, if we start actually getting traction but I honesty don't care this merger is fucking great in my opinion. I was just honoring the digits you fucking try hard.
>>183951
for a more specific example, anonfilly is a general from /mlp/ which produces almost all of these images
I just wanted to test out what this would look like do you like it formatted like this?
>>183836
Start threads about the subject if you like, but let threads die if you're just inanely bumping the thread.
Just use your best judgement.
>>183903
Hear, hear. I wonder if some of the other cancerous aspects of /pol/ should be addressed in the constitution, specifically what role Kek and digits play in this board,.
>>183935
Okay thanks for the heads-up. Sure it was not just a janitor?
>>183780
I still would like to see "The right to free speech" in there. This being /pol and all. If I want to talk about pizzagate I don't want to get banned for speaking of something that cannot be spoken about.
>>183988
I like that better, but this is going to be a very subjective thing.
>>180089
So what's the verdict on this board? Is it here to stay as a hidden board like /trash/ and /qa/?
>>183988
Hitler dubs speak. This formatting puts our best hoof forward.
>>184014
Yes.
I'm so happy that we have our own secret club.
>>183988
Nah, the seal should be at the bottom right, it flows better.
>>184003
>Sure it was not just a janitor?
do they have the power to prune threads?
>>183988
Personally I prefer the old way, but I'm fine with either. If the majority likes it this way I can dig it.
>>184040
I think they do.
>>182664
/mlpol/ is kek's will meme magic will flow like a flood
>>184014
It stays. Check pic rel. We only need new sticky and removal of April Fools announcement.
>>183988
checked
Either works
So just to be clear we're okay with this current list and having nothing to add or take away?
>>184040
Janitors can delete posts and threads, but they can can't ban users, only send ban requests to mods.
>>183988
I thought the seal andd 1/2/3/4 text on the bottom made it flow better/read easier and it looked more official.
Can I get my "right to free speech" line in pretty please with sugar on top? You can have your drawthreads in too.
>>183780
I like this one better. Please make the text of the rules bolder and more legible.
>>184065
Ye it's fuckin sweet.
>>184032
He he he.
>>184040
no, afaik they can block and request bans/prunes from actual mods.
If one is lurking he could still question to sticky our rule agreement. The thread(s) were so civic it shouldnt be a big deal.
>>184079
alright, i wasnt sure they could do either. i figured they could just temp ban anons and ask mods to delete things.
>>184084

Well when a janitor sends a ban request the anon they're sending it to gets muted for 15 minutes. They can also warn users, which forces them to look at the ban page and see why they were muted before they can post again but have no reprecussions beyond that (though I'm sure there's a log saying who's been warned so repeat offenders can quickly be pointed out).

You guys don't see the irony in putting "free speech" into a document that has a sole purpose of prohibiting certain forms of speech?
>>184196
>>We the memers of /pol/ and /mlp/, in order to form a more perfect board, establish discourse, ensure conversation is shill-free, provide for the common defense, ensure the general welfare, and secure the blessings of memery to ourselves and our posterity do ordain and establish this constitution for the United Board of /mlpol/.
>>A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a shill free State, the right of the people to keep and bear ponies, shall not be infringed. The right to free speech will never be restricted, no exceptions.
/MLPol is the first board with truely free speech.
If I made spelling goofs feel free to correct them, this is my first draft and English is not my native language.
What's a g15? I keep seeing people mentioning that here but I don't remember that term on /pol/ so I assume it's from /mlp/
>>181418
How do you pronounce /mlpol/ in your head? I want to know in case I come to the next big meetup, I don't want to sound stupid
>>184261
global rule 15. no ponies.
>>184248
fucking this.
>>184253
Remember Holocaust deniers?
Ooooh, right...
>>184261
Global rule 15 prohibits the posting of pony related images on any board other than /mlp/.
I suppose it now includes /mlpol/ on the list of boards that are allowed to post pony.
>>184253
I agree, it makes no sense and isn't well suited to NatSoc.
>>184253

This. We cannot let one board beat out another, especially when the content posted is... you know. Something like this has really never been done before though, and never with such assumed opposites, such as ourselves. We have no real tried and tested way to even approach this situation. Despite being very much into poni, I agree that it is excessive here (especially with /trash/ existing) and things like the homo horse hangout and the fucking diaper general popping seems much more intentional in attempting to dissuade /pol/acks from wanting to stick around.
>>184248
Basically
Is this a reset for /pol/? Does that mean we are working towards a 2012 version of /pol/? I'll be honest I'm basically a shitskin when it comes to a place like this, however I do enjoy a good debate and discussion. The thing I want to know is how are we going to work towards a board that truly establishes a definite board culture? I don't want no shills, no reddit, no falseflag racebait threads. For the last one I can't stress enough, not because I'm offended at being called a nigger on 4chan just the fact that most of threads shit up the place rather than simply being ignored. But I'm willing to work with a pony to achieve that goal, I used to hate you guys but I want to ride with you all into battle.
>>184315
>And we pronounce it "pol-nee" so we don't leave a verbal trail to our uptopia.

Well im off, It's bong hours and im fucking tired, great fucking thread you faggots, comfy and civil.
>>184260
This cannot be guaranteed - there are global rules for 4chan, and rules for /mlpol/ that may conflict with freedom of speech. We have to consider this when constructing the document

Still check digits, fine, but T_D is obsessed with KEK and PEPE
>>184342
Aww, I'm sorry you got called a nigger on 4chan. Sometimes people are conditioned to hate other people because they look like people who hurt them. I will be your friend! :DD
>>184420
This. Don't mention Kek. We have freedom of religion here people could praise Kek if they want but he doesn't belong in our founding document.
>>184420
personally I find it funny, but I understand where you coming from. Kek is a chaos god, maybe we should replace him with Discord here? idk just tossing an idea out there.
we need a revision with the last few suggestions so we can have a starting point for the next thread.if possible with both styles rules first and constitution first
>>184420
Reddit has always used our memes for dank karma, this is a benign relationship. It's when reddit comes over here that's a problem.

If you want to put a divine being in the founding document, put Celestia and Luna or something like that.

>>184450
Does this mean we worship Discord now?
digits confirm Discord worship
>>184361
I wrote that preamble (check id) and I thought about putting Kek, but felt that imposing a religion on this board was against the founding principles, and it felt wrong to mention any kind of diety in even a parody of the constitution. I would prefer it stay as the blessings of memery.
Reaching bump limit soon, shall I bake new bread?
Also, consider using lfag, form flag thread.
>>184262
>>184466
Praise Kek! This anon speaks the thrust!
>>184491
I would
In addition to praise kek being 86'd, normie should change to normalfag. I see normies on reddit co-opting normie all the time. Subtle changes should help weed out people who don't belong
>>184196
Here's what I have for the freedom of speech part:
>"Expression of opinions and ideas which act in accordance with all edicts, global rules and local rules shall not be suppressed."
Feel free to build on this, I'm sure it can be worded better.
>>184491
I'd rather worship Derpy Hooves.
>>184501

>>184433
That's sweet, however like I said I do not mind being called a nigger on 4chan of all places. You become conditioned to it after a few years and sometimes you learn how to fight back. But I will be honest since we are being civil. I'm already a rule breaker of number 5 >>183988
in my life. Though I do not promote nor encourage it. Like I said, all I want is a place to discuss politics. I hope we do not become an echo chamber since I do enjoy listening to different opinions
>>184523
"Mods can ban you for whatever they want. /mlpol/ doesn't exist, and neither do you."
>>184546
That's fair
>>184304
Well even if you can post ponies here that's still a ghetto, a secret ghetto nonetheless but still you've got a long way to gowe might be counterproductive to your cause considering ponies will be seen as a hate speech symbol by the end of the month if this board lives on
>>184453
Because Discord is already a well defined character I think that would be the wrong approach. Kek was a new entity that could be given attributes because he was a near blank slate.
I don't think there will be a direct replacement.
>>184554
No
>>184568
Ponies being hate speech is a red pill with a pink coating to open up the eyes of moderate feminists and the like to how crazy Southern Poverty Law Center and JIDF bases are.
I have no opposition to it.
>>184554
You're right about mods being able to ban you for whatever they like. This makes developing a freedom of speech article difficult.
>>184299
It DOES make sense - /pol/ may ostracize you and harass you in every way they can, but they won't censor you. Jews, gays, Muslims, dissenters, etc. are some of the most replied to posters on /pol/.
>>184565
That thread sucks
Personally, I think we should allow everyone to come here and shill. I think the response to the shilling should be what differentiates us from /pol/. If we welcome with friendship every shill and offer them a comfy chair to shill in, they will go away because they don't get their BTFO rewards.
>>184675
Alright. This is officially the worst post I've seen on /mlpol/. It had to happen eventually.

This is good, but I think there's more discussion to be had with the stuff in rules 4-7. Particularly because I think those rules are already mostly implied, the entire reason we like this board in the first place is because it has a proper system for shutting down shills and shitposters. If we do go along with these, they'll have to be revised from time to time to account for whatever new bullshit comes up (like "safe space for drumpfy" and all that).
Essentially, I don't see the value of calling out the specifics of what annoys us, I think the culture will come to understand that on its own. Just calling it out is going to make it more likely that we get hit with it since it's basically broadcasting to shitposters a list of things we don't like.
>>184491
Discord is a being of pure chaos, kek is also of chaos, but more of destruction.
>>185173
>I think the culture will come to understand that on its own.
On /mlp/, maybe. But /pol/ is a whole different beast. The sheer amount of people that /pol/ can pull in means that not only will the board culture not be assimilated, it will most likely be co-opted into something completely different.
>it's basically broadcasting to shitposters a list of things we don't like.
I'm pretty sure they already know what gets under our skin. I see the new rules more as trying to guide the new ponybros unfamiliar with /pol/ as to what's not considered acceptable
