You guys are obviously doing a solid job keeping the site clean lol, but that's coming with the issue of people not seeing the labor you're doing.
Probably skews the perspective a fucking lot compared to us normies that just see the scrubbed up version of this site while you guys are arm deep in reactionary shit.
and the reasons our trans comrades are leaving is because this shit is being targeted at them and they are the ones who get it in their inbox which means they obv see it before we delete it and oftentimes see it up for occasionally hours on end while it sits in the reports tab. i understand exactly what they mean when they say its noticeable.
Yeah yesterday someone made multiple accounts to spam me with transphobic/ableist copypasta shit like 50 times in the replies to my public comments. And I'm not even trans. To the credit of the mod and admin team who have been doing a fantastic job it was removed very quickly and as soon as I reported it. But I can definitely see how it can alienate our trans comrades.
yup. Just because the average user doesn't see it doesnt mean it doesnt exist. Just means we are doing our jobs relatively well. Its been surprisingly hard getting people to realize that, even with a completely transparent modlog.
I feel like it should be highlighted, because it's pretty clear to me that many, many users of this site have no idea how bad it is. It seems to me that to a trans comrade, there is constant harassment, like at least a few times a week, from outside users. I think that cis users don't see the modlog, which causes them to view themselves at odds with the mods and most of all, prevent solidarity with our trans comrades. I'm really sad to see so many users go and I know we can do better with this.
its the main problem we have been having with the site. "I dont see the transphobia" JUST LOOK AT THE FUCKING MODLOG
ITS OPEN
ITS CLEAR
THERES A SEARCH FUNCTION!

I feel like this comment needs to be a copy paste response for every time the “where’s the evidence??” crowd shows up

Ever thought about doing a weekly ban round up thread or something? Showing the worst of the worst.
Like those shitty papers in gas stations they put out that show all the arrests for the week, but in ban form.
thats what the modlog is basically. no need to highlight this shit.
