Why no generals? Sometimes generals produce good discussions. Take /sg/ for example.

Generals nose dived both /pol/ and /mlp/. I was a part of the rule making threads, we had a strawpoll with over 200 people. 70% voted No permanent generals (except draw threads) but if a current event is happening, it's totally fine to start a happening thread on it.

This. I don't think segmenting the community is a good idea. I don't think we'll run into any problems using just one board. If we do, we can always segment later.

Ok, maybe, just maybe we should create a separate board for NSFW stuff. Now, if we do ever get shilled or something, we could flood the main board, but i think there are still quite a few people from /pol/ who don't like the r34 shit, but still want to be part of /mlpol/.

It's an interesting question because if you use nature, /pol/ or MLP:FIM as a reference the answer is no?

But, a person using their imagination doesn't destroy real world society.

a seperate board for porn threads, and on the main board, porn only allowed when spamming in a shill thread? it's a good plan but i think there should be a few porn threads up on the main board at any given time to help scare normies away.

but see rule 3.

IMO a main thread is all we need for now, we can worry about splitting it up if/when it gets to crowded; atm there's no where near enough activity to justify a split.

I fear low population like always. If the porn threads are crowding out the political threads then maybe it should be considered, but right now we're so low pop that it's not an issue.

The porn keeps the normies out and we're actually pretty restrained about it. Real talk usually doesn't get porn spammed, but crappy threads do.

I think a porn shield is good, we could have dedicated "clop generals"
And only allow porn images to be posted by op in a thread

Not too much that the site goes degenerate, but enough so the dimwitted normies leave us alone

that's just stupid. i agree that there should be a couple/few dedicated porn threads, but i disagree about it not being posted elsewhere as long as it doesn't get out of hand.

NO GENERALS! They're the slow poison that ultimately turned /mlp/ into a sick old man. I don't think you'd be any worse off if you replaced a general with a thread dedicated to a specific topic of that general's nature. If the discussion naturally drifts to more, uh, general topics, then that's fine.

Is there any way to change to a picture captcha rather than words. It slows people down and personally it takes me three goes to get it correct.
I would prefer not to have the left side are all. Put it along the top like everywhere else.

I'm the opposite. The picture captcha can sometimes take a whole minute to complete. Especially when it keeps asking you for more and more images.

I agree, we need the clop threads and I don't say that because I want to fap. They do keep normies repelled and our skin thick.

As a compromise I propose that a rule should be added that all porn threads must contain subject keywords so those opposed to it can easily filter them out. Additionally, porn can only be posted in those threads. Which words? We should debate that as a community. I suggest "Oven Fresh" be used. Let admins and mods deal with shills and bots, they have ban hammers. Clop can be the deterrent and primary defense.

True a normie could setup the filter too but by then, they've actually learned the board and maybe lurked while taking a few redpills. Besides, if they fuckup they can get banned.

Opinions?

I strongly suggest since /mlpol/ is now almost entirely in one place we revise the rules formally.
Our purpose is to create a comfy board with genuine political discussions and cute ponies, while repelling shills and reddit.
As such, our policies should reflect this endevour to protect our core interests.

Can I make a suggestion? I saw a YLYL thread in here earlier. I don't know if it was genuine or just one of the garbage threads /jp/ was shilling, but I think either way it's something we should nix early on. Humor threads should be allowed, but it should be called "/mlpol/ humor", "funny images thread", "lol thread", or something to that effect, and the humor should be more or less on-topic (either /pol/ related or /mlp/ related).

YLYL is pretty much synonymous with cancer across 4chan. Even if quality content is being posted in the beginning, just establishing the precedent of referring to it as YLYL is opening the door for decades-old unfunny off-topic memes, banana/cucumber/whatever the current vegetable is cancer, and general faggotry of all shapes and sizes. As soon as you start seeing YLYL threads on a board with any regularity, that's how you know the board is in a death spiral. I watched it happen with /pol/.

This is understandable.
If we allow generic ylyl threads then this place become essentially just another random board.
At the same time humor threads are part of old /pol/ culture (I assume mlp as well)
As such they should be allowed so long as they are on topic

Absolutely, I love on-topic humor threads and I would wholeheartedly encourage them here, it just seems like something about the term "YLYL" just immediately causes post quality to decline. For a while on /pol/ we had "/pol/ humor threads" and those were generally funny. Then it was "/pol/ ylyl", and at first it was the same type of humor as the /pol/ humor threads, but after a while normal YLYL shit started creeping its way in, stuff that had nothing to do with politics or board memes or anything that could even be construed as /pol/ related. Eventually I started seeing YLYL threads without the word /pol/ appearing anywhere, and it was literally the same type of cancer you get on /b/.

/pol/ has a serious problem lately with threads clogging up the board discussing whether certain YouTubers are redpilled or not, or whether or not such-and-such is "/ourguy/". For a long time there were multiple daily threads discussing whether or not PewDiePie is a Nazi (there may still be for all I know, I haven't honestly been back there since April 1). The threads don't really go anywhere other than to give attention to e-celebs who frankly get more attention than they deserve already. I think linking to specific videos in order to launch a discussion about the video itself or the topic is fine, but discussion of e-celebs themselves is just gossipy and juvenile and doesn't seem to go anywhere.

You are right. I am #altbrony and I don't like degeneracy spreading. That's very zionist and lefty.
In fact I do t care of private fetishes among people but spreading it instead of spreading a Volkish message is counterproductive for the movement

I understand that ecelebs who become a meme are troublesome, like Mainstream METOR and Varg posting.
However, certain e-celebs are really /ourecelebs/. Millennial Woes for example. i think its not a problem having threads about individuals who are important to our movement.
