PRO TIP FOR MAXIMUM FUN: |
|||
</h2><br> |
|||
Remember to read the <a href="/faq.html">Help/FAQ</a> page, especially if you are not familiar with imageboards or have only used 4chan. |

GLOBAL RULES |
|||
</h2><br> |
|||
The rules for users are defined in our <a href="/static/manifesto.pdf#page=3">/leftypol/ Manifesto</a>. Below is a summary of the rules. |
|||
<ol start="0"> |
|||
<li>Do not post in or view any boards if you are under 18 years of age.</li> |
|||
<li>If you break the rules we will delete your post. Do it repeatedly and you'll be derezzed.</li> |
|||
<li>Do not call for mods, or announce reports in a thread.</li> |
|||
<li>Always argue in good faith and avoid using personal attacks.</li> |
|||
<li>You should always elaborate on your opinions rather than just spilling the soykaf.</li> |
|||
<li>Don't respond with aggression to perceived flames or trolls (or at all.)</li> |
|||
<li>Do not whine and cry about 8chan, lainchan.jp, "quality", "invasions", "newfags", mods, bans, or kalyx outside of /q/.</li> |
|||
<li>Do not spam or advertise unrelated content.</li> |
|||
<li>Do not post child pornography or questionable 2D/3DCG/3DPG sexual depictions of children. This includes "child models".</li> |
|||
<li>If you must post it, spoiler any NSFW content and make sure it's relevant to the discussion.</li> |
|||
<li>Do not upload malicious archives.</li> |
|||
<li>Read the rules again. At least 3 times. </li> |
|||
</ol> |
|||
</div> |
|||
<li>Anyone posting child pornography will immediately face a permanent ban and their IP will be logged and recorded to |
|||
be handed over to the authorities (if this is ever required).<br>Content which ‘doxxes’ another user |
|||
or person will also be removed.<br>Other content which promotes or endorses illegal activity may be |
|||
removed at the discretion of the moderators.</li><br> |
|||
<li>No spam. Spam from a bot is subject to a permanent ban or more severe actions |
|||
to preserve site security. Spam from a user may also be subject to a ban.</li><br> |
|||
<li>Pornography should not be posted on /leftypol/ or /meta/ without good reason. In addition, |
|||
images which are excessively offensive to the eye or to civilised sensibilities may be removed |
|||
without warning (for example, gore, shock images) and punished with moderator action.</li><br> |
|||
<li>Posts should, overall, be conducive to an informed and productive discussion. /leftypol/ is not an |
|||
academic journal, but it also should not be a cesspit of back and forth bickering and pointless |
|||
insults. Users should attempt to argue for the point they are presenting in an honest and open |
|||
way and should be receptive to information or arguments that do, in fact, challenge their views. |
|||
Reactionism and liberalism, or any other kind of non-leftist positions are not banned per se, as |
|||
we will endeavour to allow and encourage people of other political philosophies to explore |
|||
leftism through /leftypol/ so long as they follow the rules contained herein. However, non-leftist |
|||
users are ultimately to be considered ‘guests’ and thus will be removed if they prove a nuisance |
|||
or disrupt the normal functioning of the site.</li><br> |
|||
<li>In addition, /leftypol/ is committed to the ideal of left unity, or at least that the left should have |
|||
an avenue for open discussion, so all ‘mainstream’ leftist ideologies will be permitted (so long as |
|||
they do not violate the conditions set out in <a href="/static/manifesto.pdf#page=1">Article 1)</a>. /leftypol/ does not adhere to a specific |
|||
leftist ideology.</li><br> |
|||
<li>To ensure a basic level of quality, topics or posts will not be tolerated when contributions are not |
|||
conductive to well-intentioned discussion. Therefore, posts or topics are likely to be removed at |
|||
the discretion of moderation staff if they; |
|||
<ol> |
|||
<li>argue under false pretences ("false flagging")<br> |
|||
 e.g. "Hey fellow commies, did you prep your wife's bull today?"</li> |
|||
<li>imply reactionary or false positions of the userbase as a form of group shaming<br> |
|||
 e.g. "Why do you guys all hate trans people?"</li> |
|||
<li>are of an overly derisive and mocking nature<br> |
|||
 e.g. "haha, btfo commies hitler rulez"</li> |
|||
<li>are of a gratuitously offensive or hysterical nature<br> |
|||
 e.g. "I hate fucking Mudslimes, we need to hang them all before they rape our children"</li> |
|||
<li>are debating inherently reactionary topics where no reasonable debate is possible<br> |
|||
 e.g. "In what way should be exterminate the lesser races, guys?"</li> |
|||
<li>are low effort sectarian bait rather than good faith discussion<br> |
|||
 e.g. “Tankie/Anarkiddie hate thread” or “Why does this theorist suck so much?”</li> |
|||
<li>are likely to create pointless and unconstructive arguments about ‘idpol’ (as defined in |
|||
<a href="/static/manifesto.pdf#page=1">Article 1)</a><br> |
|||
 e.g. “Why can’t I have women as sex slaves?” or “Why are whiteoids like this?”</li> |
|||
</ol><br> |
|||
These examples are low quality posts that are considered, at best, bait, but are better described as |
|||
spam. Any poster that violates this rule may be subject to a ban, and any post that violates this is |
|||
subject to deletion, subject to the discretion of moderators, if they feel that the topic may be an |
|||
avenue for productive discussion.</li><br> |
|||
<li>Volunteers may remove other posts according to their own discretion which they feel do not |
|||
contribute to the stated mission of /leftypol/, but they should try to adhere to the standards of the |
|||
community and of their fellow moderators, and to refrain from arbitrary decisions. Where there is |
|||
disagreement among moderators, the matter will be decided by informal consensus of currently |
|||
active moderators. If there is still disagreement, the matter should be escalated to a formal vote.</li> |
|||
</ol><br> |

<h2>PRO TIPS FOR MAXIMUM FUN:</h2> |
|||
<ul> |
|||
<li>The mods are not on powertrips, they are friendly and are trying to ensure the quality of lainchan, not belittle your ideas.</li> |
|||
<li>Lainchan is a place to have your voice heard but not a place for you to drown out others' voices.</li> |
|||
<li>Mods usually ask each other for opinions before doing anything. We hate having to ban someone.</li> |
|||
<li> Just relax and try to have fun. Jokes are always welcome.</li> |
|||
<li> Visit a board you've never been to. Try out /random/.</li> |
|||
<li>We ALWAYS need contributors to our board software, located on <a href="https://github.com/lainchan/lainchan/">github</a></li> |
|||
<li> Dice rolling: posting in the email field with the form "dice XdY+/-Z" will result in X Y-sided dice rolled and summed, with the modifier Z added, the result is displayed at the top of the post body.</li> |
|||
<li> Be smart when posting about potentially illegal activities.</li> |
|||
</ul> |
|||
Once a ban is issued, it should be followed by the user and not contravened. The evasion of bans |
|||
will lead to continued bans and possibly an escalation of moderator action against a user. In |
|||
addition, it is prohibited to attempt to imitate a moderator, or to give the impression of being |
|||
multiple users at a time (for example to falsely make one’s own opinion appear more popular)<br><br> |
|||
Users have the right to question and challenge any bans or post removals, or other moderator |
|||
actions, which they feel are unfair or do not live up to the spirit of the rules. This may be done in |
|||
the moderation feedback threads on the various boards, or on the /meta/ board, but comments |
|||
should be considered and constructive, and should not devolve into polemics against the |
|||
volunteers. Ultimately, the judgement of the moderation team is final. |
