I wanted to avoid a thread as to not give them more attention, but it is easier to discuss in one spot instead of having scattered comments here and there.
As you've surely noticed, Robots and /b/tards are invading because they are pathetic and water is wet.
I have hidden the friend finder thread temporarily because it contains contact info that they are apparently trying to take advantage of. I am also hiding the selfpost thread, Insta thread, let me know if I missed anything.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused by the invasions over the last few days and staff and I are doing our best to keep crystal.cafe clean!
Anonymous 378
>>377Two things. First of all, I noticed that gore isn't currently against the rules, but it's being used to troll and was never posted in any other context, so maybe we should ban gore? Or at least require some kind of warning system, like requiring it be tagged as NSFW and possibly going so far as to require it be tagged and also properly content warned?
My other suggestion is that we may want to delete the threads containing sensitive info and start them fresh later, in case any miners regret posting anything personal. New threads could be made and miners who are willing to risk it could re-post their info/self posts after the trolls are cleared.
Anonymous Admin 379
>>378I've been removing all gore. If you see any, it's because I haven't gotten to it yet, feel free to report it please!
All threads containing personal (that I currently know of) info have been hidden and are inaccessible. I'll restore them after giving users a chance to ask for their post to be removed, once things look better.

I'd say make a flood detection system like lolcow has but then that might irk normal posters if they need an image dump. There are still ways around flood detection so if a /b/tard or robot figures it out then it'd be kinda pointless to set it up.
I'm not surprised this has happened because it was going to happen eventually given this is supposed to be a girl space and robots just can't resist the thought of it.
Anonymous Admin 382
>>381We have flood protection in place, which bans users who try to post more than 5 threads in succession. I'm working on making it a bit more stringent for the time being. There are more protective measures in place that I don't want to reveal to the robots, but please know we are doing all we can.

I remember years ago when other boards were raiding /x/ the mods would just shut down the board for a bit. I'm not suggesting we do that now since it seems like it's still manageable but if it ever gets out of hand I can say that approach worked really well for /x/ at the time. It was an extreme measure but we only had to do it a few times because trolls never got to have any fun trying to raid it.

Lol, it was totally spoony who posted us to r9k. She got mad we were talking smack about her goofy plastic christmas elf ears again. How many times in the past 3 years did she post links to lolcow on r9k when it wasn't well known yet then, 50 times? She did it every single time someone made fun of her. Get a hobby or job, grl.

We know, although it's not only from 8ch. Raiding posts were also spammed on /pol/ and /9rk/ so the raids come from multiple places, not only the spergs at 8chan.
We still don't know who did it, regardless of the speculation, since the board has been circling around 4chan's /r9k/ and other boards for a while.
This is a girl only board, yes. But unless you state you are a male or make it obvious by your posts (which you just did), you are allowed to post (according to the rules).

Fucking robots always blaming others is a thing I've always hated.
I was trying to be nice. For no reason and without any other purpose. Yes, there is still people that does that. If this site is meant for girls, what is the problem? People is just so stupid.
I'm not upset, just disappointed. There's always some sperg that ruins other anons by blaming them for everything.
If you wanna ban me again do so, since I'm a guy. But even if you don't, I won't write anymore.
Again good luck, hope that assholes go fuck themselves away from here.

Just am noticing that the highest rates of trolling/raids/invasions seem to occur between Thursday and Sunday nights. I've heard anecdotally that that's by design and a long-time idea cooked up on a 4ch irc channel.
Has anyone else noticed similar?

I'll admit I find the psychological subtleties of the apparent connection between angry incel internet trolls and their passive-aggressive emotionally manipulative mothers is actually quite fascinating. I'm guessing they're projecting some deep-set oedipal anger outward at the world in general.
As someone else with a controlling mother, I feel sympathy for them: if your own mom thinks you're a failure, then you really don't have much emotional support.

Just want to remind my fellow miners to keep reporting suspicious posts from people like the male poster who made a thread to discuss his feefees here in /meta/
Anonymous 714
I half suspect that one of the newer troll/raid tactics is to samefag and simulate arguments in certain threads.
I've noticed several instances of arguments occurring that seem to be between posters but are occurring almost live, like second-by-second, and usually there's rarely two posters on here at any given time let alone two specific members involved in a pre-existing ongoing long-term argument, let alone three (me plus the two arguing).
It almost seems like a post is made as bait, and then when someone replies suddenly there's an argument between several people erupting, with the argument getting more and more nonsensical and bizarre as it goes on.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I've noticed this happening around three times now, and always on Thursday to Saturday, which seem to be the peak troll periods.
I'm probably wrong though, but it just seems weird.

There seems to be an increase in shitposting and bait-posting with real-time arguments happening within minutes of replies being posted.

These people aren't new and have been here since the beginning.

I doubt it's as bad as you think it is.

There has literally never been this many active users online at one time, ever. Usually it's make a post and then wait ten days for a reply.
We're def being raided and I challenge anyone who says we aren't to prove they've been posting here by owning some posts and threads they've started previously.

What fucking gives? Why can't they go make a trapchan or trannychan and just stay the fuck over there?
>>828>There has literally never been this many active users online at one time, ever. Usually it's make a post and then wait ten days for a reply.Depends on which board, but it by no means has taken ten days to get a reply in /b/, /meta/, /hb/, or /feels/.

>>818I think it's plausible that some farmers are crossposting here because they have something to prove about miners being "cunts." According to their posts on lolcow, they think we're forcing people to be sweet here instead of us just being reasonable and wanting a place to make chill posts, so all they need do is rile us because that proves…people get angry with enough agitation???
Notice the sudden increase of infighting, opinion posts that are often seen on lolcow, and the constant activity on their /ot/ screencapping and talking about this place despite little activity discussing lolcow in the farmhand thread on /b/.
I'm not sure how the admin here should handle this, honestly. An upset farmer is a loose cannon.
Anonymous 843
>>841I think the admin handled it well by responding to the criticism. She can't stop someone from screencapping any posts so it's probably best to be ignored tbh. It's not her job to police what gets posted to another site. All she can do is respond to criticism and taken into consideration what's been said. Anything more would just escalate shit. If all they're doing is screencapping and going "lul dumb cunts" there isn't anything anyone can do. Just deal with it I guess.
Anonymous 849
Admin can you consider just making a containment thread for tranny discussion similar to what lolcow does? If these posters insist on being here, I think it's better so as anyone who doesn't want to scroll past posts about killing trannies and arguing can simply hide a single thread instead of hiding threads they frequent because a few posters are getting out of hand.

Nobody is "assblasted over opinions" it's just that people trying to derail every thread into trans discussions is what made lolcow do a containment board in the first place, because the site was starting o become cancerous after every thread, regardless of topic ended in "kill all tranies lol".
I don't see the problem of trying to avoid this site becoming what lolcow was as it's worst.
That anon is right in saying a containment board would be good, because then you people wouldn't derail every single thread to circlejerk about tranny hitler-tier extermination or whatnot.
Anonymous 855
>>853It's a bit of a stretch to compare their comment to hitler, isn't it? Let me guess, you're used to comparing every comment you slightly disagree with to hitler.
Hitler hurt minority populations, all that person was saying is that we need to be willing to do what needs to be done to help keep minority populations (women) safe when the time comes.
I don't think they meant that killing men was the best situation, just that it probably needs to be done to keep women safe to people when all other options fail.
I think that their opinion is in fact rational and I disagree with the comparison to them to hitler.
Anonymous 856
>>853We can all obviously agree that the best situation is to be able to deprogram them with psychotherapy, with more intensive measures taken if found that the issues can't be resolved with regular psychotherapy. Most of us here can agree that extermination is and will ALWAYS be an absolute last resort when deprogramming proves ineffective.
Anonymous 857
>>855> Let me guess, you're used to comparing every comment you slightly disagree with to hitler. I do not, thanks for assuming though.
I mean, equating wanting to kill a part of the population and isolate them because you don't like them or think every single one of them is dangerous to hitler doesn't seem like much of a stretch, but okay.
Anyways, you guys are still derailng threads that have nothing to do with trans discussion with your anti-trans manifesto, so that's something lol

We are not making a containment board for any politics or social politics discussion. We do not want that sort of breeding ground for /pol/ style takeovers.
If anyone wants to create a thread for trans discussion, please do, or revive one of the older ones. You can also make a vent thread for either side. Please keep the debates out of the other threads though. Almost every mention of transgender topics ends in derailing, please stop.

One of the last threads that was deleted was about how "I think your chan is horseshit, it's just about ~feelings~ and how you ~feel~ but tldr men are better and women r cuntzz". That made me chuckle because this man is probably trying to delude himself he actually has any kind of value even though he's pathetic enough to get triggered over women having an imageboard, and ironically being so butthurt about feelings when he is obviously full of hurt feefees.

I find it funny that robots rarely ever dare to pick on lcf. When they do, it’s seen by everyone as a laughable minor nuisance. Really makes you think. They hate roastie spaces online, but can’t muster up the courage to go after the larger girlchan that would bite back. Sadly for them, it just so happens there’s a lot of vicious girls(no shade) who rag on people all day long in that place, a place that also recently started having misandry threads comparable with their /r9k/ counterparts in sheer hate volume. They could not attack anyone and move on with their lives, but since robots absolutely feel the need to bother people, they’d rather shit on a somewhat new, small and civilized community so they can feel like they pose any kind of a threat. Sad!

>>1010No one can really take that shit. It's always hard for everyone who posts but especially staff who need to delete their crap. But if you get so scared you don't want to come back you will basically let them "win". CC is really small so losing miners could kill it pretty fast. The best solution and the best way to fight back is ignore them and report all their shit so staff can see it.

Thinking long term, bringing more girls here will strengthen the community and make it so raids don’t have as big of an impact or become less frequent. We may not be able to be hostile towards men coming here in bad faith as the girls back in lolcow(even if most of us are from there), mainly because iirc we’re not supposed to engage with robots, but like
>>1012 said it’s not just the viciousness that minimizes the impact of raids over there, but the number of people in the community as well. The two obvious ways to bring more people would be telling women we know to come or advertise the place. Because of the raids, I feel discouraged to spread the word to my friends who aren’t familiarized with imageboard culture but would fit in here and contribute with good posts. Don’t really feel like making them have the risk to stumble upon cp, hope things quiet down a little so I can introduce them to cc.

I haven't noticed anything from the raids admin is doing a good job with deleting everything. It's sad to hear that these men are spending their time on this.

Maybe the image part of the intro page should be hidden or have the option to be hidden by users?
These retards cannot stop sperging out in text posts to show where they come from so we should be able to see when they are trying to be "le epic trollzs xD womyn are cunt reeee where are my tendies xDdddD i jerk off to kids and have gore on my pc XdDxd" without having to see their shitty pics?
Plus, it's easier to hide a thread without having to see the image, so even if they did not post a text post on /b/ for example and only posted an image, we could see it while scrolling and hid it instead of being forced to see it on the front page every time we enter.

>>1025If you're talking about the page I think you are, I disagree it should be
hidden but I like the idea you can choose not to see it. But you can already hide images, thank God.

>>1026Yeah, i meant the page that shows up when you write only crystal.cafe on the url.
I normally go on /meta/ instead of that first because i don't wanna see gore/CP and i can kinda see if there are raids by the posts here and i can hide the images without seeing them if i scroll slowly and see the top of something weird.
Having the option to hide the images section on the front page would be optimal imo, but idk how easy it is to implement since i know shit all about coding websites lol

Will the friend finder thread be restored?

>>1852Unsurprisingly we tend to have issues with men using these threads to contact users. It can be restored, but I'm open to other suggestions as well.

>>1874Personally I think it could be renewed with a new thread that had some clear warnings for people to use throwaway accounts and exercise caution. I don't think the risk of male contact could ever be fully avoided, but I think people are interested in connecting outside of the site, especially since the discord is going away, and I think the model of having people screen potential contacts themselves is a better model than the discord model of having a few people screen everyone (though it's still far from perfect).
