Apparently this was inaccessible until I asked about it today, when the admin fixed it.
https://policies.communities.win/content/
These are rules that apply to the entire .win network, including OmegaCanada. These are in addition to our own rules which are listed on the sidebar.
Content Policy
Win is a social media platform designed from the bottom up to allow people from all over to connect and communicate with others about topics of all sorts. Our goal is to allow open and honest discussion without heavy moderation and with as little censorship as the law allows. Almost all content is welcomed on Win.
Content
Content is not welcome if it:
- Is illegal.
- Is personal and confidential information.
- Impersonates an individual or entity in a misleading or deceptive manner. Parodies are always welcome as long as labeled as such.
- Is spam.
Behavior
In addition to the above, the following behavior is not welcome on Win:
- Engaging in vote manipulation (including asking for votes, and voting with multiple accounts).
- Doing anything that interferes with normal use of Win.
- Using multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions.
- NSFW (Not Safe For Work) content not properly marked as such or posted in a Community it is not allowed in.
Enforcement
- Warnings, which may include a message and removing the content that triggered the warning.
- Temporary or permanent suspension of accounts.
- Removal of privileges from accounts.
- Adding restrictions to communities, such as marking the community as NSFW or providing additional moderation to the community.
- Removal of content, which will be documented in our public admin logs.
I asked the admins for these rules because there's vote manipulation that's been occurring, and I'll be getting the tools to deal with it at my level shortly.
So for those of you who've been voting with multiple accounts (i.e. using multiple accounts to vote for the same post/comment multiple times) I suggest you go into those alts and undo the votes, before I get those tools. Otherwise all those accounts are toast.
FYI I had this account only because I couldn’t access my original account on the old the Donald so I hope you look deep into account patterns before going ban hammer super Saiyan
Apparently 200k spam accounts singed up in the last 24 hours.
I use alts when I want to fuck with shills like brukovsky and har-v0 (probably the same person)
They're not worthy enough to engage and taint my main account's inbox with their bullshit. I basically deny their existence when on my real account.
There's a number of reasons why people might do this.
At the low level, someone might make a dozen accounts just so they can downvote the hell out of someone they hate.
At a higher level, like the 200k account level, someone might do that so they can upvote themselves to the top of the front page. Maybe for glory. Maybe because they're advertising something they want to sell, and this way they can click it up to the top of the front page. Or they could be using them to downvote certain news stories so fewer people see it.
At the 200k account level it's not a manual process. You'll pay a click farm to do that for you. It's not expensive. Someone probably contacted a click farm and told them they wanted clicks on on the .win network, so the farm signed up a bunch of accounts to provide those clicks, and clicks for future customers who want clicks on .win forums. And the click farm will use a program to set all those accounts up. They won't do it manually.
We're pretty certain a large percentage of r/OnGuardForthee's (that's the sub that was created to oppose metacanada) subscribers are clickfarm accounts, because we know the head mod was into that kind of chicanery (confessed to purchasing reddit accounts in the past), and the voting patterns are consistent with that. He considered his subreddit subscribers "friends" and wanted to show the metacanada mods how many more "friends" he had than us, because he was mad we wouldn't be "friends" with him (it's all very sad and disturbing).
So, the reasons why range from commercial advertising/economic gain to downright mental illness.
When I get downvoted here, I escape to /pol/ to escape my hurt feelings. When I get called a f@gg0t on /pol/, I come crawling back here to escape my hurt feelings. It's a never ending cycle my fren.
