If you haven't noticed /pol/'s quality has deeply decreased over the past couple of months, with people spouting the same memes over and over again, people just posting a screen shot from their phone of an article going "lol" or using the same old copy paste thread "lol drumpf" or fucking facebook memes going "you cant dispute this"
So lets make some new rules for /pol/ to try and make /pol/ great again
Some suggestions
>New rules forcing people to link to screenshots of articles
>No more one word threads
>qa thread
>>>/qa/648506
>hiro on /qa/
>>>/qa/668184
Also any new things like
>500 bump limit
>Automatic archive links
Anything
Bump. We need this.
>>88808050
I've got some "same memes" for you.
>>88808527
>calling me a muslim
The blood of jorvik runs through me you fucking Spanish monkey
Should generals be allowed on /pol/?
>>88807580
Wow great pics !
>>88810502
thanks
Anyone else notice the sticky is gone? It disappeared for a week, came back, and now is gone again.
Have the mods given up? Is this just /b/ grade shit posting now?
Look at the catalog. YouTube and tv shows dominate this board.
>>88812009
>>40489590
still there for me anon
>>88807580
>A notice on the board title telling people to visit the fucking sticky
well thanks for letting us all know you are a redditfag from the outset.
If people don't read the rules/sticky and break them they get banned, easy.
>More transparacy
oh god. he's retarded.
>New rules forcing people to link to screenshots of articles
there's literally nothing wrong with linking to an original source
>New rule saying you can link archive links to stop click bait
there's literally nothing wrong with linking to an original source
>Mods/Jannies who actually use /pol/
t. butthurt fag who got banned for spamming cuck porn
>>88813499
>if people don't read the rules/sticky and break them they get banned, easy.
Anon fuck off, you know they are never enforced
>there's literally nothing wrong with linking to an original source
t.wordpress (((journalist)))
>t. butthurt fag who got banned for spamming cuck porn
Why would i be making this thread if the only thing i wanted to was shitpost
>>88807580
Ban links to reddit
CTR and r/4chan running damage control
I can't wait for the election season to be over and all the dipshits who are here for that reason alone get bored and leave
I don't understand you faggots. If you don't take an interest in the future of this place then it will be decided for you by people you don't approve of.
I don't see why we can't have this
>New rules forcing people to link to screenshots of articles
Because it'll stop phoneposters being lazy as fuck, it'll make threads seem tider with more effort and it'll stop being taking up post space "link" "source"
>>88807580
This will go on until November, then it will go back to normal levels of shitposting. I think its probably a good thing really, like a flak shield for when some poor reporter from CNN tries to stick her nose in here.
>>88807580
>New rules forcing people to link to screenshots of articles
>BUT I DONT WANT TO GIVE THE MUHHH CLICKS
What's the real justification behind this time vampire? You really care that much about giving a website traffic? If you have ublock origin and noscript like you should, it will just be a burden on their site
>>88807580
I'm sick of the stupid kek retard shit
You're literally worshiping a FUCKING frog. A FROG. You're all gay as fuck....no wonder the Democrats always win
Kys, all of you
>>88819400
Idk anon, i think its going to take longer than that after novemember people will still be here shitposting waiting for the next terroist attack or happening, people are treating this place like a new twitter
>>88819599
No, i just want a politics board back. Also I have a pass
>>88819794
>Kys
You're no better than the rest of them, fuck off.
>>88819951
>being this tween
Yeah I said kill yourself, not "shit post".
Don't you have a frog to pray to?
Kys
>>88819794
It doesn't bother me, the over saturation of it bothers me, if you keep posting the same thing its looses any fun/enjoyment, this is why twitter/facebook memes are shit, over saturation and now pol is doing it too
>>88820316
It was never funny or cool and it literally makes no sense.
Also, it's loses, not looses
YOU DONT OWN ANONYMOUS POSTING HABITS!!!!!
But seriously you sound like a jew trying to become leader of something that doesnt need a leader.
>>88820458
"DA JOOZ"
this is all pol is now...that, and the frog.
>>88820423
No one proof reads in 2016
>>88820458
Not saying I want to, just want a politics board back what talks about politcs and not have to wave through 40 threads of off-topic bait reddit hyper 14 year olds screaming
>>88820729
What do you mean "proof read"? You typed one too many Os, because you didn't know the difference between 'loose' and 'lose'......
>>88821044
stop being a fucking faggot, I know the difference and I make the mistake all the time
>>88818643

>>88821259
No you don't. You wouldn't make the mistake if you knew the difference, fag
Eat a dick you nigger loving shitskin
>>88807580
New rule: No concern trolling
>>88821570
>>88807580
Post quality isn't really a permanent thing, once the US Presidential election is over it should clear up.
General discussion threads are okay, but the amount of namefag circlejerking needs to be cracked down on.
Post limit desperately needs to be increased, this board is way too fast for a poultry 300 post limit, so 500 min or 750 Max should be considered.
>>88821753
Shut the fuck up, queen. Learn to spell.
>>88822275

>>88822379
>being this 'not an argument'
>>88822628
"you've made a spelling mistake so you don't know the difference between two words"
that's the only non argument here
Remove repeating digits entirely like on /b/
30 day ban for roll threads, praise threads, and derail rolls
Automatically delete posts with more than 10 replies, as well as their replies
Make ID's persist across the entire board but reset them daily
Make the "Anonymous" of anyone who joined after April 2016 tinted slightly more green
>>88822993
>Make the "Anonymous" of anyone who joined after April 2016 tinted slightly more green
How stupid are you? There is no way to know how long someone has been here.
>>88823187
First connection of their IP to the site
April is honestly really generous, I only picked it because it was a turning point in the site's popularity. July 2015 would be a more appropriate date.
>>88822798
Exactly, you don't know the difference
Oh so fucking thick.....
"I didn't do something properly but it's not because I don't know how to do it!!!!""
KYS, bleach.
>>88823617
>First connection of their IP to the site
IP's change
And that info is probably not stored for a long time
>>88824475
IP changers deserve that punishment, they're probably ban evading.
>>88822993
>Make the "Anonymous" of anyone who joined after April 2016 tinted slightly more green
That's just going to results in name calling and we have enough of that
>Make ID's persist across the entire board but reset them daily
Could be interesting but idk thats basically having a name for a day
>30 day ban for roll threads, praise threads, and derail rolls
THISTHISTHISTHIS
>Remove repeating digits entirely like on /b/
Really needed
>>88824647
>IP changers
Maybe your ISP provides a static IP, but many ISP's don't.
They have IP's that change every time you restart your router
>>88821613
it's hard to prove whos concern trolling tho, that will just end up with people calling people concern trolling when they disagree with them
Ideas:
-Slow down the board posting time. Seriously it's way too fucking fast right now and its no wonder were flooded with shitposters. Make the timer like it is on say /v/ or /a/
-Start censoring terms like Redpill me on X, What did he mean by this, /pol/ BTFO and Really makes you think. These make up a majority of the shitposting threads
