What will the moderation be like on this sub? I don't want Saidit to be another Voat

submitted by marmorsymphata from self.GenderCritical

Unfortunately, we need to acknowledge the fact that the majority of subs that were killed in the banwave were misogynist, racist, and et cetera and are probably coming here too. If we want Saidit to be a legitimate replacement, we need to take serious measures towards making this place an island against infiltration by unsavory elements that would damage the reputation of the movement.

I'd be content if the moderation here was like the moderation of gc on reddit.

Hey guys we are still working out moderation kinks, thank you for your patience, this was a quick decision today to claim this sub here. Original GC mods ask you to join Spinster.xyz and they are working on a private alternative. Please dm the mod team here if you were a Reddit mod on any GC sub.

What do I do once I log in to spinster?

from the mod rules:

4a) Mods cannot remove user comments that are both in good faith and on-topic.

4b) Mods CAN remove opposing opinions that are high on the pyramid of debate, and ban those users on that sub, if and only if the 2 following conditions are met: 1: The fact the sub removes opposing opinions is announced in the sub's sidebar. 2: The mods uncheck the sub setting "allow this sub to appear on /all"

So I think GC can have a space where they can remove and ban whoever they like here if they follow this 4b rule. Might want to check with the mods for details though if intending to say here for any significant length of time.

Yes, this is something we will decide once it's all calmed down.

Right now we are removing comments with slurs in. I would like to avoid outright banning anyone unless they are consistently harassing or posting slurs or doxxing.

I have faith and trust in the women here to be able to ignore comments they don't like and to report it if they feel its necessary and we will take a look at it.

Can we contact the mods on Twitter? I know they are trying to appeal right now, but I don't reddit is going to cave. It's a male dominated site after all. Porn matters more to them than we do.

Voat sucks.
