you accidentally made a new thread instead of replying, OP-san...

it was meant to be a new thread

How about 'dont be annoying', is that simple enough to understand?

Teh various different people involved in Heyuri's operation and moderation have a mixture of opinions on account of them being various different people

This is teh board where we openly discuss Heyuri meta and potential changes to rules/moderation, so that's what you're seeing here. Ultimately kaguya has the final say since he wears teh epic crown of Heyuri admin, but that doesn't mean we can't debate it as users of the site

The /s/ threads were autosage'd by me yesterday after another mod suggested it on Chat@Heyuri, and I thought it was an graet idea

A twitter user comes in here saying he doesn't like thing, and the moderation is already changing to appease him.
Is something happening behind the scenes? Will we soon have to be careful of pronouns and be terrified of the N word?

No - a disingenuous n00b comes in here and makes a shitty post

Hai, it rly seem suspicious, but (some of) the mods were hatin it and thinking of cutting it down long b4 that: >>68164 >>67914

>>68220
I get that, but I'm not concerned much with how long it has been a point of controversy for, or what the controversy is even about.
It's that all it takes is one guy from twitter saying "you have a problem" to have an impact. If he doesn't like something that's on the website, he can leave.
If this, however, is just a rogue mod taking whatever chance he can to do what he wants, I'd say he's just unfit for the job.

>It's that all it takes is one guy from twitter saying "you have a problem" to have an impact
Obviously not true - and ur butthurt over a filename tells us it is likely u who is teh n00b here

>If this, however, is just a rogue mod taking whatever chance he can to do what he wants, I'd say he's just unfit for the job.
There are no "rogue mods". Heyuri staff-san is just a group of old-timers and regulars picked by kaguya that moderate teh site using their own judgement and discretion - as it's always been

I autosage'd a handful of similar-themed threads (mostly made by a single user) clogging up the front page of a stagnant board based on the suggestion of another mod and other users - this was to give new threads a chance to flourish, which some users at the time were saying they were gonna make. However, so far they have not...

If kaguya or another mod disagrees with teh decision then they can easily undo it. Nothing has been baleeted, nobody has been b&, no rules or moderation protocols have changed - hell, those autosage'd threads can still be replied to

this isn't being argued in good faith in the slightest by >>68221 or >>68218 and the argument boils down to complaining over imaginary "twitterfags" rather than dealing with anything brought up in >>68206

or statements like
>I'm not concerned much with how long it has been a point of controversy for, or what the controversy is even about.
if it has been considered a problem on the site before, then of course someone pointing it out to the staff will cause action
shit doesn't happen on a whim

That's not how imageboard works.
There is no "front page", it's not reddit. "Posts preventing other posts to flourish" what are you talking about?

I'm guessing this is where all the miscommunication comes from. Some mods is treating heyuri like it's twitter or facebook, as in, some posts are "promoted" or pushed forward while others are held back.

So you want to prevent "bad" posts from being put on the spotlight... Well this problem has been fixed a million times already, it's called reddit/twitter/facebook you name it. A single user is not able to "clog up" those website, is that the system you're looking for?

The reason why 4chan had/has a completely different voice is because it's not based on popularity contest, it's based on reaction and user activity.

The only job a mod has is to enforce the rules and ban offenders.
Different boards are there to catter to different people.

People who want to post and see Loli stuff will post and watch /l
People who want to post and watch 3D content will go and watch /s

Imagine if a 4chan user who has interest in discussing in /jp were complains there's too many pics of Trump and Hitler in /pol. What would you tell that person?

Now it appears that despite Heyuri being an imageboard, it's acting more like a giant /heyuri board that also kinda would like a system more similar to reddit.

I'm not saying it's stupid or not, I'm just saying the values don't align.

U seriously need to lurk moar

>There is no "front page", it's not reddit.
There is a "front page" - the first page of the board index. That's always been a thing on 4chan & other imageboards, and it's even more of a thing on Heyuri since we're much lot slower (and glacial on /s/). Additionally, we have an overboard that shows all the threads on all the kokonotsuba imageboards (minus filtered ones) in one place as if they were a single board

>some posts are "promoted" or pushed forward while others are held back.
It's called age (AKA bumping) and sage, and they do exactly that... unless a thread is autosage'd, either automatically through being too old (a feature only enabled on Off-Topic as far as I'm aware) or by manual staff-san intervention. Again, these features are things on 4chan and other imageboards

>The only job a mod has is to enforce the rules and ban offenders.
We're not simply "mods" even if that's what the capcode says. Heyuri staff-san work on developing the site software, hosting additional boards/features, organizing events, and generally trying to help grow the userbase and keep Heyuri as "the place to be"

However, we do have a rule known as "No more board dominationz allowed by a single user/topic", as mentioned here: https://www.heyuri.net/#news54 - this came about because certain users were constantly posting and bringing up a certain "topic" in nearly every thread, preventing new threads from going in different directions (and eventually they just spammed the entire site with it)

>People who want to post and watch 3D content will go and watch /s
Yeah... unless they also don't want to see preteen girls in bikinis, in which case they have no choice but to stop visiting /s/ and filter it from the overboard

>>68224
>there is no front page
this might surprise you but at the bottom of each board is a pagination, and when you open a board the first page is what you see. this is the "front page" of that board

there's also the overboard, which is even more of a "front page"

>So you want to prevent "bad" posts from being put on the spotlight
what do you think sage does, because it's exactly this

also a single user can dominate those platforms... but you don't use them, so you can be excused for not knowing that

it's also worth noting that as doesn't delete the thread, just stops it from being bumped. you can still post in the threads, no one is stopping you!

>all the twitter bawwwing

>Honestly the moderation feels skyzophrenic and amateurish
srsly...
>You will never be japanese (YWNBJ)
...this should have warranted b&hammer then, OP could later remake the thread following site rules

>There is no "front page"
n00bs like me cant into front page
