Forum Post: Unless I hear from jart, or moderation soon, I will assume this forum is now being run by agents of the 1%

Posted 12 years ago on March 13, 2012, 10:13 p.m. EST by GypsyKing (8708)
This content is user submitted and not an official statement

Every indication since the 1st of March is that this forum is once again dominated by our opponents. Most posts and comments have a clearly anti-occupation strategy behind them, and those anti-Occupy comments are voted up by bots, while legitimate posts are voted down. The huge volume of this traffic stifles the effectivness of this forum, once again.

We need to know what is up here.

Silly trolls.........Can't even leave this one alone.

Bot using script kiddies are cowards.

[-] 4 points by GypsyKing (8708) 12 years ago

This has very serious implications for this movement. This is the information age. Our ability to project our ideas here is powerful because those ideas are spread exponentially through social media, and this forum is where those ideas are primarily desciminated. That makes this forum important, and they know that, even while they try to convince us that it is not.

Any whistleblowers out there willing to use a one time username to tell us what is going down here? Anyone in the movement in touch with jart that can tell her we need to hear from her and from moderation?

My primary concern is for their safety, and by extention the safety of all involved.

[-] 3 points by shoozTroll (17632) 12 years ago

Perhaps if we supporters left for a few days and let the bots and trolls talk to each other, someone would notice.......?

I know I've mailed abuse, and got no response. I'm sure others have too.

Now we, and the site are being threatened with an attack.

Unspecified, of course, but a threat non the less.

Where is anonymous when you need them?

[-] 3 points by GypsyKing (8708) 12 years ago

Yes, time to cogitate. If they take over this forum then it is of no use to us, and we may have to abandon it and reorganize.

[-] 5 points by shoozTroll (17632) 12 years ago

I've been trying to make contact through the chatroom, and having little luck there either.

I know that after 4mos of this, and now bots all over, it's getting to be a bit much.

We could meet in the chatroom, until this place gets cleaned out.

[-] 4 points by GypsyKing (8708) 12 years ago

I'll give that a try. Thanks.

Meaning discuss solution here,

http://articlevconvention.org/showthread.php?33-Amendment-By-Layers-Of-Priority-constitutionAmendment-Package-Making-CONST.-Intent

That one thread if understood can create an entire landslide of Constitutional intent.

Then come to OWS for outreach and demonstration of the power of agreement upon solution, Article V.

Thanks for the link. I'll check it out ASAP. I'm all for an article V.

So that's why you're not using your bots to vote our comments into oblivion on this post.

[-] 2 points by TruthRightsFreedom (259) 12 years ago

GK, bots cannot do solution. Their trainers won't teach them. talking solution leaves them nothing to do but oppose it. If the solution includes defense of the constitution, they get to be traitors:) -

Absolutely, I agree. The tone of this forum changed literally overnight, just after the Feb. 29 protests. And I really want to here from jart and agnosticnixie! We are not playing games here, and if we don't hear something soon, we better make an effort to know that they are alright.

Two parts, Indian Call Centers, and poorly programmed bot's 2nd, ... and once in awhile thrassy himself jumps in, ... the problem is that these bot's are them themselves parts and parcel of OWS itself. Long ago established that Jart & Thrassy are same-same person.

GK and Shadz, ... and shooz are all on this same team as the list above,

Most interesting is why do most of us get deleted same-day and/or one day, but GK and the OWS insiders have been here since the begin and never deleted?

All insiders and all playing the same game, ... keep the sheep focused on Jart's bad Sex change job and little else.

Soros is the richest man in the world and made the money by investment banking.

He paid for CANVAS ( arab-spring ), which under contract Kall-Lasn ( OWS/ADBUSTER ) run's.

You are a BOT this is assured, change the subject if you will, SOROS paid for CANVAS/OWS and SOROS is the 1%-er who rules the world, everything that OWS claims to hate is in fact paid for by the 1%.

[-] 2 points by PopsMauler (182) from Chicago, IL 12 years ago

This is a very valid conserdation to make. Especially so, as posts are still being deleted. So there's definitely still active mods around at times.

This forum is in a sad state, but some posters do make it worthwhile to stick around.

[-] 2 points by GypsyKing (8708) 12 years ago

I definately think it's worthwhile - we must simply be allert to the need to clean it up when necessary, and understand the determination of our opponents to render it inneffective. That sometimes takes innitiative on our part, collectively.

[-] 1 points by PopsMauler (182) from Chicago, IL 12 years ago

Yep, and it definitely extends to more than just these forums.

One day the trolls will look back at their behavior and they will be ashamed of themselves.

[-] 2 points by GypsyKing (8708) 12 years ago

I think, if we consider the larger cosmic mystery of existance, and that the material world is transitory, and that we are in the middle of a duality of good and evil, truth and lies, justice and tyrrany, body and spirit, negation and transcendence; and that we have a choice to make about those things through the further mystery of free will - I think if we consider all these things, we might conclude that they may end up being more than simply ashamed of themselves.

The body is trasitory, the soul dwells with the eternal verities.

[-] 3 points by beautifulworld (23771) 12 years ago

I truly hope they can come to see the light and change their ways. But, in the meantime, if they don't, let's not allow them to win. Their goal is for us all to become exasperated and leave the forum. I refuse.

Yes, we do have these flurries at times. I have come to accept them as they do seem find the brick wall eventually. Funny part, with as lead way they get, which is substantial, they feel persecuted.

I say cry me a river, snap their necks, and see ya. We give respect and we receive respect, we know who we are, and it's earned. Trolls stick out like a damn sore thumb. Give them a warning, tell them to re-read the ground rules of the forum, and repeat patterns are met with a predictable pattern of siding with respect for others.

Most people do like to work within some agreeable structure, the first step would to have mutual respect for others.

It can work. Let's try reason.

Agreed, but newcommers read this suff and get a really wierd impression of the movement, and when it reaches certain levels, I think in a decentralized movement, we ourselves have to get to the bottom of what's going on, and I think things are in the process of getting fixed up again:)

[-] 6 points by GypsyKing (8708) 12 years ago

Yeah, that's one clear indication. Some bullshit remark by some troll the other day got 25 upvotes. I've never seen anyone here get 25 upvotes, and unfortunately, higher scores here give posters higher credibility. It is just one example of their effort to once again dominate this forum.

[-] -3 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 12 years ago

Down voting them does no good for the same reason, they get bot voted back-up. About the only thing I can suggest is we ignore all troll posts, and support good posts and comments as best we can. while slapping down troll comments at least once per troll attack.

I'm here too, but there is no meaningful agreement upon solution and that is the only thing that will be effective. If we go elsewhere, where discussion is not buried in sensational, redundancy, agree, then return with the refined agreement to focus on one thread with a number of us who are sincere, we have an impact.

Otherwise it is the same old diluted group unable to make a visable precense of unity.
