Do not respond to maleposters. See Rule 7.
Please read the rules! Last update: 04/27/2021

Why is this place so unnecessarily ban-happy? I have NO idea why I get temp banned but it happens a lot! Even if I don't break the rules..? It feels like being allowed to post here has nothing to do with the actual rules. My posts are obviously from a female, they're humorous most of the time, I don't have beef with anyone here, It is too much.

No wonder this board is slow or dead… I'm sorry but how is it conducive to creativity and humor if you constantly have to worry about getting banned for anything?

Cc needs to loosen up, because the boards POORLY represent women. You have all of 7 subtopics to represent their interests??? and then you ban-hammer those women for ANYTHING?? It feels the opposite of progressive to me. It feels as liberated as Sunday school.

It's a huge turn off for me too. Mine haven't even been temp bans, I get permabanned and I've never been given a reason.
>Cc needs to loosen up, because the boards POORLY represent women. You have all of 7 subtopics to represent their interests??? and then you ban-hammer those women for ANYTHING??
This 100%. It's ironic that you're better off posting overly sweet and cutesy shit like a fucking tranny in order to have admin deem you a woman.
I've read the rules multiple times and have no idea what I did wrong, and they never even specify the offending post or add a reason to the ban. This shit should take 2 seconds.

Anonymous 4438

Can state I have had a similar issue with temp and permabans. At this point I post exclusively from VPN because no reason is ever given for the ban and Admin doesn't respond to emails.

Anonymous 4439

Its like anything that could be NON belligerent / bad taste joking could be a bannable offense too, you can't even know. I've read the "the rules". Clearly they aren't the rules. Its heightened nitpicking because the mod is bored (CC is slow after all).
Just because we're women doesn't mean we have to have an uptight board though my god. Its bad enough having to deal with that kind of woman on woman nitpicking IRL.

If its obviously misogynistic then yeah ban! But shouldn't women here get space to just post whatever? How about a new rule! If you don't break the rules you CANT GET BANNED.

And.. the hell we can't have political discussion? I can't talk about the 2024 presidential election ? Who validates this crap? is the board secretly run by moids?

Not getting an explanation for a ban makes it seem even more tyrannical. I know you get a lot of moid posts, but lighten up on whats obviously female posting?

Insane this needs to be said lol. God forbid we have posts that AREN'T schizophrenic or hikikomori/femcel centric. And it would be nice if it went both ways, but it takes HOURS to remove cp and the obvious "I want all women to die" moid posts.
Jannies deleted one of my posts that literally said "ty anon" – for fucking what? This shit is worse than the moderation on reddit. Explains why this place is so slow though

Anonymous Admin 4441

Hi, yes there have been issues with bans that were handed out. Additionally we've been having some issues with permabans sticking even after unbanning/successfully appealing. I rarely check the email to be honest, the best way to reach me is via the Discord linked in the rules page, but I'll get my shit together and catch up with the email inbox too.

I also agree there are too many bans in general. Moderation is difficult because a large amount of "moid" reports are very subjective, which also makes it incredibly hard to find mods that won't overban. I've been thinking about these issues a lot and welcome input. I'm open to having a site-wide chat soon so we can discuss how to continue. For now, I'm sorry for all the trouble, and thanks for sticking with us.

Anonymous 4442

Nice to hear from you! I appreciate the thorough explanation a lot. Sorry for getting so bitter about this, it just felt frustrating to get permabanned with no communication on what I did wrong. So thank you for addressing it.

Anonymous Admin 4444

>>4442
I completely understand and you're clearly not the only one noticing it, we definitely gotta do something about it. For now we've stopped doing sticky bans for anything beyond very clear raids and maleposters.

Anonymous 4445

I often report posts as 'male' if they seem to be belligerent without encouraging discussion, or sound like utterly insane bullshit, or may be bait. My understanding is that mods can view all the posts by one IP, making it easier to determine if they read male or not. Not every post I've reported has been removed, and I assume that's because those posters' other activity is not overly hostile or baity. Therefore I feel comfortable reporting posts based on hunches, I know my suspicions are being peer reviewed.

I also reported a post yesterday that complained about being banned and the poster got banned. I don't care if they were female or not because it was funny.

Consider spreading out your post activity into subjects that aren't contentious! And when you do get into a political shitfight, explain your position beyond ad hominems and memes. Don't act male, dummy!

Anonymous 4453

It wouldn't be so bad if we could at least get a reason, a violated rule, a message from the mod saying "you're banned! reason: lmao u gay".
Now if we get banned it's just sort of out there.

You know usually I'd be polite and agreeable but I've had it. How the hell do i get so aggressively banned so fast but these gore posts are still up?
If you need an actualy 24/7 functioning MOD I'm ready and willing. My job is dead most of the time. I'd gladly just kick ACTUAL idiots and give women here space to just EXIST. You need to vet your damn mods. I've seen child porn on here for HOURS. I'm seeing decapitated people and skinned people right now. What are you going to do ban me for being mad about it too? Is my attitude too rough now? I'm so over this board its ridiculous. Someone here needs to own up to the fact the mods here don't have actual good intentions. Its clear their priorities are backwards. I mean who the heck is monitoring the mods? Clearly nobody….

This was 3 days ago and clearly not true, either someone's lying or scrotes have infiltrated the mod team.

I wanted to give you all an update; TL;DR our spam filter went ballistic for a while and re-banned users even after a successful appeal (which is also why there was no ban reason).

How much time do you think they'll spend going through post histories?
I don't like the fact that they view post histories, it takes away privacy and anonymity and its what really bugs about this place. The moid paranoia is so bad, and you just contribute to the irrational moid-hunting and tyranny.

And geared towards mindless discussion, only.
Lets not actually talk about real controversial world issues "because its politics", but we can talk about being proana no matter how baitey it is?
While the men on all their own POL boards conspire around misogynistic policies all they want…??

It all just feels like a tyrannical 50s sorority.

Yes it's explicitly stated in the rules.
You can't discuss pol, but you can discuss circling the drain as a proana.
It really shows you what this place is about.
I'm really thoroughly thoroughly unimpressed.

Post all the anorexic inspiration you want.
But you can't bait and no no no you can't talk constructively about real world issues and politics.
Obviously, for the sake of bimbo twats everywhere.

Ever since I saws that change in the board rules I've decided this place is joke.

I think if we're allowed to discuss being proana we should be allowed to discuss politics.
It didn't turn lainchan or 420chan into a cesspool.. why should it turn ours?

I know I don't like being treated like I'm five, and especially don't like it when the entire group is. As if they're infants incapable of handling their own discussions without being maimed or injured.

.."Protecting the energy on the board"? Did it actually even matter? when it was already headed towards misogyny, hypocrisy, proana ?

The users are out of their minds if they still continue to think this is a healthy place.

Isn't it because politics talk baits men, therefore it'd entail more modding, etc.? I mean I've peeked over at /pol/ before, it is relatively common to see it inundated with gore, etc., even though it definitely has way more jannies.

And moreover…there's dozens upon dozens of different kinds of discussions here. If you literally want to discuss politics because that's the only one you don't find mindless, there's endless other boards for it, ones that can handle it better because they have more people managing it.

In any case I don't even mind the proana talk being offed. I only saw it once because I barely go over to hb (that board isn't good for my BDD <.<).

In any case it isn't like the mods made a cognizant decision to allow proana in juxtaposition to politics, which is a subject that is banned from a number of boards. I'm sure the mods would eventually allow a containment thread for it, at least transitionally.

CC should do more to appeal to a female audience, like have fem oriented hobby boards instead of banning people the mods deem as being "moids".
The truth is that no two women are going to think alike and many will hold opinions or say things that are unconventional. So for the sake of this community, don't let it turn into a hivemind with how moderation is run.
