Anybody know what they're actually banning for? Obviously it's a person-specific thing and they've got some hang-up, but I can't tell what they're trying to purge. Four pages dead seems a little heavy if he's only going after CYOA threads.

What's the pattern? Anybody figure it out?

Supposedly is all non-show related stuff, which means many green generals, fetish and CYOA. Some still survive, but we don't know why, maybe because of the slow influx of content...

Mostly Show discussion only and no RP rules are being cited.

>>2083365
I think it's either a new by-the-book mod, or some random mod who's going out with a bang.

Stuff that's getting deleted are threads that are vaguely related to the show, so it's probably the first.
>>
Has anybody been able to reach the 4chan IRC yet?

Some generals and CYOAs are still up and I swear I saw two show-related discussion threads being killed, so no, I don't think there's exactly a pattern.

Is there a hard limit to how many bans or thread deletions a mod can do at once? Like a failsafe to prevent them from mass deleting and banning a whole board? Seems like something Moot would not have implemented, but it could be why we're not seeing a total purge of the board.

Yep. Till your IP gets banned. Slight advantage though is every 2-3 hours of not being connected to your mobile network, you'll get a new IP.

Actually there was, but only when the show, the fandom and the content creation was active enough to keep the board alive and to fuel discussion. Those days have passed and even if I'm not a big fan of generals I don't really mind them as long as they are MLP-related [spoiler]but please can we stop bumping threads which have been dead for days already?[/spoiler]

I fucking love this shit. Not the whole general and thread deleting thats happening, but that the whole of /mlp/ is coming together in like a little defence force against the tides of the mods.
Like we're fighting a little war and we're trading intel and discussing theories and plans and take care of eachother in these trying times. Anons that usually dont get to talk to eachother are suddenly bashing the faggotmods together, or are just commenting on the situations as a whole.
I know I'm a pathetic excuse for a human being but I love this, and I love you guys.

The problem with shit prompt threads is that even though they're shit, there's at least one in five that manages to attract decent content.

I know there were a lot of assmad children who were getting sick of them, but really, all you had to do was click out of the thread and not give it a second glace.
>a thread died for this!
And guess what? It was a shit prompt thread that no one cared to bump. Literally nothing of value was lost, for it was simply replaced.

It's not the fault of the autists who make these threads, it's the fault of the autists who have an all consuming need to post in them because they enjoy being bitter and angry.

Reflect upon your misery. You might find that the source of it is you.

technically they aren't, its not about being ontopic, hell, its not about the shitposting, its about over saturation, prompts become generals, generals take too much space and other kinds of threads can't keep up, instead of 30 different generals with a single writefag and 4 guys kissing his ass someone should have made a general for prompt requests already, they would work just like drawthreads but with short stories, this way we could still have the green without flooding the board with "Anon fucks a horse general #122 - faggot edition"

this will just kill CYOAs though, and a bunch of other threads that aren't even prompts, an easier solution would be confining the prompts inside a single general while creating a way to filter generals from regular threads without deleting them, like i dunno, a way to mark them as generals when creating them and adding a "filter all generals" feature for those who don't want to see them

Fine by me. If the QM isn't running a session, and the players have run out of topics to discuss, then why not just let the thread die? The QM can make a new thread when it's time for the next session.

This honestly sounds like what happened. The stickied post doesn't even read like it was written by the same person who did the deletion and banning since it has a bunch of "HI ANON" examples despite there not being a single thread like that up during the whole affair. Now I know those are likely just an example, but I haven't even seen a "HI ANON" thread in fucking forever. Why not choose actually real and particulairly egregious "rp thread" examples from while you were cleaning things up to help illustrate your point better?

You think I'm fucking kidding?
The general I came here for (/hhh/) was among the only ones that were NOT deleted, and it was on the front page during the entire mod banning spree because of mass posting.
I'll correct myself though, most generals except homo generals, trap generals, some EQG generals, and (I think?) the flutterrape general were deleted.

Mods truly are fags, because now it looks like they prefer their own personal beliefs and opinions over other peoples' "bad tastes".
Especailly when NO RP threads such as Hi Anon!, shimmerposting, glimmerposting, and nyxposting were deleted during the mod ban spree.
Maybe 2 or 3. Meanwhile a shit ton of generals were deleted.

Honestly, if I were to run a CYOA and needed a couple hours break or so, I'd tell everyone not to bother bumping unless they -really- needed some indepth discussion about it since I could always just make a new thread. But that's just me being polite and courteous to the rest of the board.
>>
>>2086008
>There were a couple of threads that were not RP that were deleted
dude, essentially all of the threads that were deleted weren't RP. not even a single hint of RP, besides CYOA, which Scruffy clarified in the sticky as not being RP in their eyes.
>>
>>2086008
Mods are on crack. Plus their explanation sticky doesn't help. I can understand wanting to get rid of low-effort greentext bait. I can't understand calling prompt threads "roleplaying". And I haven't seen any actual "HI ANON" threads in ages.

Honestly, the phrasing of the no-roleplaying rule seems pretty stupid at this point. This is the second time they've had to carve out a special exemption for something that is very obviously roleplaying but also shouldn't be banned (CYOAs this time, previous was structured RPGs as in FEMTO or OiE).
>>
>>2086032
like i said, some CYOAs are really shitty and people refuse to let the thread die even when QM is clearly done, but nuking all of them wouldn't be fair with the few CYOAs that get it right
>>
>>2086073
Some trashfag probably reported it for being a prompt. Mods dangled a bone and now they're barking.

That's what I meant by the occasional 1 in 5 actually being a prompt that manages to get good content. I bet they didn't even look at the thread.

What are you talking about, "nuking all of them"? Adding a "no bump without content" just means people will get banned when they are "getting it wrong" (by your own standards) and trying to keep a thread around despite having no QM or discussion.
>>
>>2086192
Oh yeah, that might have been me.
I picked up on the site back in '07 I think, when a friend from high school told me about it. I used to only visit /b/ and the porn boards back then before taking a break and then finding it again a few years later. Specifically /mlp/, but I've slowly been expanding my interests beyond porn ;^)

The "bumpfest" is only a problem when the thread is already over, there are faggots who try to keep it alive overnight instead of just letting it die and waiting for the QM to make one later, which just ends up taking space
>>
>>2086276
And you don't realize that that is an INCREDIBLY small amount of generals, CYOAs, and prompt threads? Maybe even misc threads?
I'm not talking about pony threads since the threads deleted were deleted because they were "non-pony".

You and I both know that, even without there being a hiatus, that is an INCREDIBLY small amount of generals and CYOAs. especially generals.
>>
>>2086380
>"give me a minute"
>posts no content and no status updates for 3+ hours, long enough for the thread to fall off the board
(For reference, the oldest thread on /mlp/ right now hasn't been bumped in 8.5 hours. The 5th oldest hasn't been bumped in 4.5 hours.)
If the QM's going to be gone for such a long time, why shouldn't the thread be allowed to die? Is it really that difficult to just remake the thread? Plus, it only takes one page10 bump with content to add another 3-6 hours onto the time the thread sticks around.

But that already exists seeing as most of the prompt threads become Anon related. It's called AiE and people whine about having to go in there even though years ago it was created to take care of the issue of too many human in Equestria greentext stories flooding out the board. But what happened is people got ass mad that others got more recognition than their shittier story did so they ran out of the thread and made their own splinter thread. Keep doing this and the AiE containment dies causing these serial threads that last maybe 10 iterations or are just filled with BUMP BUMP BUMP over aND over.

What we're about to see is another problem with the context clause.

I use this as an opener, but it's not a prompt. It doesn't matter, since newfag the mod only sees the face and doesn't actually look at the content of the opening post, much less the thread. But before that, newfag the mod can't focus on the fact that it's a "promptface" because it happens to be Milky Way. It doesn't matter that it's not a Milky Way thread, it doesn't matter that it's safe for work. Context isn't even considered.

Now imagine this is Cadance. I say something in green, along the lines of
>"Hey Anon! Did you see that changeling headed towards my castle?!"
It's not a roleplay prompt, it's a cheeky show discussion prompt hidden in dialogue. It's different, which is good, because the same old shit gets boring.

But again, context doesn't matter. Actually taking time to glance over what you're about to delete doesn't matter. You're triggered by an image you think is one thing but isn't, and you're never going to consider that attitude as cancerous because you're too lazy to use higher reasoning.

The issue is most of those threads usually are just more shitposting. Just because they can -sometimes- lead to thoughtful discussion doesn't negate that. Perhaps people actually looking for thoughtful discussion ought to actually try making an opening post made with that in mind. On the other hand, I do understand that most of the time the best way to get attention to a thread is to open with something that attracts people's attention, and shitposting unfortunately is at the top of that list.

I support the rebelling. I even participated and somehow didn't get banned.
It's the SJW fags, moralfags, and rulefags that I fucking despise.

Fucking agreed. Out of all the six bans I ever had received, they're all from /mlp/ for some vague ass reason. I frequent 4 other boards and purposely shit post in them and never get banned. Meanwhile I get 3 days for posting a censored lewd pic in /mlp/. Not to mention I hardly visit /mlp/ in the first places. Everyday they are going to enforce the rules harder and harder until we break. First it was the porn, then it was fun threads like tulpas, and now greens. They are going to keep getting away with it until the entire board is deleted. We need to rebel NOW

>>2086980
I don't know if Faust is the main reason behind this. I do think that the mass spam of twitter threads could have caused a mod to go apeshit and mass delete and ban, though.

i am almost cirtain soem faggot hacked into on of the mods computer and found away to do it
it happened on /pol/ a few years back
this or

Except the first scruffening had started prior to her visit. I remember cause the MMP thread was randomly getting deleted every other day or so almost two weeks before she visited.

A lot of people consider those things issues because they ARE issues, not in a "they don't produce content" kinda of way, but the fact that they are all over the place and end up burring other actually good threads with content because they aren't fast enough, should someone do something about the prompts and "hey anon" ish shit? Yes, is this the way to do it? No, but mods acknowledging this is giving people hope that they will see the complaints and change the aproach on the subject
>>
>>2087025
No it happened after. Or at least, it got much worse after she visited. She even said on Twitter she was sorry for possibly making things worse.

As for MMP, I think that thread just had shit luck.
>>
>>2086992
>Then it was fun threads like tulpas
What? Tulpa threads were banned in the scruffening?
Shit, I stopped forcing and shit like that years ago and I still feel fucking sad right now. Are you for real?
I guess that's why I never see a mass amount of tulpafag threads anymore

But yeah, I really do think we should rebel. We have done it massively before, and it caused /mlp/ to be created. We need to do it again, or else we're going to witness /mlp/ drive itself into the fucking ground, maybe before the show is even over.
Moot fucking hated us, but I'm not too sure about the gook

It began before the visit and ramped up after her visit and only then people started taking notice. But it certainly wasn't due to her visit like everyone seems to think. And wasn't just limited to MMP. There was even a sticky that went up a couple weeks before that said they were going to clamp down on the rule breaking.

Guys something is also happening on desutaorage. Usually you can see every deleted post but for some reason only a fraction of the ones deleted by scruffy appear. Not only that but when I refreshed it even more threads that were even listed in the archive disappear. Someone is trying to hide the damage done.
>>
>>2087037
There is a difference between these:
>Hi anon!
>Where the fuck were you last night?

>You wake up and see this.
>Wat do?

>Hey anon!
>What's that in your hand?

And:

>Hi anon!
>Want to raid tumblr?

>Hey anon, you're a huge faggot.

>What's up anon xDDDDDDD

Context matters. Threads like Hi Anon! are good as long as they aren't spammed, just like any other type of thread.
If a single general was spammed with shitposting and replies not going anywhere, would you think that the general should be abolished?
If a single general was producing writefags, writefag material, and greens, would you think the general should be abolished?

It really does matter, and grouping the two different uses of the prompt threads are a great way to kill off a great chunk of the creativity made by the board. They're the same thing. Certain types of threads create shit sometimes, and create gold other times. Why aren't they being targeted as well? Why are just """"""roleplaying""""" threads being attacked? You even have fucking writefags worrying about whether or not they can post greens without being banned, for fuck's sake.


And also, I think we all know that by this point, it is fucking damage control. 100%.

Yeah, but those faggots fought harder than others. There's a Tulpa thread up on /trash/ right now though.

>>2087142
Damn, that is vintage. Too bad they went twelve steps beyond "clamping down on rule-breaking". I don't see that happening here, but hey, the next few weeks could be interesting.

Tulpa threads were never banned. The moderator at the time said the only reason they were being deleted was because there were no more pony tulpas being made, therefore it became off-topic to the board.

He said it was fine to continue if they made it about ponies again, but even though they tried, the trashfags smelled blood in the water and considered a banned thread just because of a few deletions, so they started mass reporting them like the rest.

Ultimately it fell in place with the unwillingness of the mods to deal with a constant perceived problem, even though other people were the reason for it.

First of all ask yourself this, what makes "Hi anon" and IWTCIRD threads acceptable while Shimmer or Nyxposting doesn't besides tradition? Not everything needs to be set on stone, /mlp/ isn't a very strict board and it doesn't need to be.
Like you said, some shitty threads can end up being fucking amazing and i agree, but having a rule that keeps the worse of the worse from spreading can really help as long as the mods don't go full retard like they did right now, shit worked before because even when we had shitposting it was always very tamed and easy to ignore, the only people who got banned were the ones who reached critical levels of dedication, the moment it stopped just being a shitty thread a day and became legit spam of CP or some shit

Like i said before, the idea is good, having a way to stop shitty prompts is good, the execution however was bad and this whole thing needs to be planned again if the mods aren't just damage controlling

>>2087312
mediocrewritefag, ponybones, snd twiligh/tg/ame_night

It'll probably get scruffed on site because it used the words "Hi nonny" in the prompt and I think they're using some arsetarded auto delete system
>>
>>2087162
The problem with prompt threads (by which I specifically mean the first category in your post, not the second) isn't the content, it's that people are filling up the board with these low-quality threads because they're so easy to make. I would be perfectly happy to see them consolidated into a single Prompt/Greentext General. We used to have AiE for this purpose, but I guess there was a bunch of drama or something and now it's fragmented into 50 different little threads.

This, when we have 30 people saying "fuck it, its just another general, it can't make any bad, right?" at the same time of course things will go to shit, and getting rid of any of them would be bad since none of them are doing anything different from each other, they are just people enjoying some green on their own threads, why should that one be banned while the others are allowed to stay? Why can't i make a thread about this while other 20 people can? Why is my prompt considered shitposting yet his story is completely fine? I am saying this assuming the person in particular isn't a shitposter

Well, if an anon were to make a thread in the vein of the Heart of War thread currently up, I'm sure the thread would survive and the writefags would come back. Could be a crapshoot, though.

You better thank one of those threads in the archive, because I would not have gotten that image without an OP putting that shit there.

To be fair, AiE has its own problems. But that doesn't excuse making your own thread and lowering the quality of the board even further with even shittier stories than the ones AiE put out.

Hugboxes kill any drive for improvement. So does dealing with a bunch of huge faggots though. There's a sweet spot that nobody seems to hit though because muh 4chan muh autism we are leegun

The two are contradictory
I'll be nice and tell you

When people say /hhh/, /sun/, /eqg/, /mlpg/, etc. they aren't talking about actual boards. they're just shit people use to shorten the name of the general.
