Hey everyone! There’s been some confusion as to what our boards are and what they mean. To briefly summarize:

/pony/ is the off-topic and pony general board
/cartoon/ is for fandoms of other cartoons

This leads to confusing questions such as “Where does Dr. Who stuff go?”, and perhaps the most common question of people wondering whether we have an off-topic board at all. Does anyone have suggestions on different board arrangements? A few potential ideas:

>Merging both boards into one while we gauge the community and its needs.
>Splitting /pony/ into an off-topic and pony board.
>Moving the pony portion into /cartoon/, such that we have an off-topic and on-topic board

Comments on these ideas, or ideas of your own are all welcome. We’re trying to set up what the community needs most and appreciate your input.

I'd say merge it into one until you can determine what the site needs since I think /cartoon/ will be sorely underused until then.

But, I also had another idea for boards that I posted on ponychan. I don't know how much water it holds, but I can go into it if you'd like.

I suppose it must have been the anonymous posting that did it?

Anyway, back to my question.

Is there a list of moderators for this site?

I would also like to bring up the fact that your rule page doens't list not posting anon on /Canterlot/ as against the rules

This should be rectified to improve user experience, along with the utilization of shorter bans and an appeal system, as I was indeed unaware that this was a rule.

A decent suggestion for the mod staff to consider would also be using board only bans for those who break board specific rules, thus allowing people to post elsewhere if they break a specific rule on a "serious" board like /Canterlot/

I think for this place that banning suggestive content entirely is probably the closest to a desired action to take. But then again, a loooooot of safe things can be considered suggestive.

The entire self moderation part is what made people look for a new place.
It's a place of freedom, but it also loses its reigns on the content and at some point you might as well make everything a free option, isn't it?

It can be a mess and an effort on moderation side, but it beats the alternative to just let things be.

On the Wraith, I would say no, that's fine. That does not pass the admittedly vague lines we've set.

I think actual mature content being around is out of the question. I'm not sure there's even a small portion of our users that want it, and most would leave entirely at the mention of the possibility.

As it stands, though, I think the rule (the vague and rough rule that mostly gives us free reign on interpretation) bans explicit things and things we determine to be porn without being necessarily explicit. The latter being the more complicated portion, but probably no less important.

First, these are based on my own sensitivities and thoughts about public decency standards. It's just how I think about it and I thought it might be useful.

With respect to anything related to sex and nudity, I think that the objective/subjective distinction is the best place to start thinking about wording and community intentions. Objective appreciation of sex and nudity related issues talk about the things in a way that does not make a person feel like they are participating in something. It is a moving target but there are ways to set limits on how a community sees things. I have a few model ways of looking at it that I sometimes use as a "yardsticks" that collectively help me.

*Objective content talks about X and describes X in more technical ways.
*Subjective content interacts with X as a personal experience.
*Subjective experience can be described as an object in mature treatment like advice, or introductory discussions.
*If the communication starts reading or appearing sexualized (actually occurring explicit activity portrayed as personally pleasurable), like a random sampling of common pornography, or an intimate chat session simulating sex, the line has been crossed.
*An important category problem is when one person projects (in terms of emotional impact), or sends unsolicited sexualized sexually explicit comments to another person.

Art is more complicated but similar standards can be set here. There is art excluded by the previous guidelines but these tend to be areas of current sociopolitical conflict and likely precisely what moderators will have to expect as a hypothetical "worst case scenario". So if someone is posting art that pushes against the rules, they should be able to demonstrate why the art is personal to them (it is art after all), and how it would improve their life to express it (without hurting anyone or creating a problem moderators and staff can not solve).

I might have more but I need to fish though some folders and find a copy of the discussions I had on this issues at Ponychan.

A /k/ thread is definitely not shitposting. It is, at worst, a serial. But talking about guns in a serial thread is certainly not against the rules.

A reminder that Harmonyhoof is not a mod of any sort.

I hope that's clear.

Personally I don't care much for guns, but it's not a thread that shouldn't exist.

Another opinion I hold for gun control bait threads that can go around. A good discussion should never be an issue, but I wouldn't want a daily "Gun grabber versus gun nut" argument over some sort of obvious bait thing.

It's a portion of the spam detection that is a tad overzealous… so we'll be working on that and several other major things in the near future.

For now, if you have been on a thread for a while before you post to it the spam filter might have issues once you do post. The settings have been set to rather absurd levels, but it remains on for the moment. We may have to remove that portion altogether.

Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. We are working towards a good solution that will hopefully be implemented this week if not tomorrow.

I did say i'd offer advice, even if i think this idea is going to crash and burn because of your weird policies.

Ideal solution for the problem attempting to be solved by "dont post anon":

Dont care about anon / names / trips, only look at the IDs.

Implement ID's on a thread by thread basis (i.e: Each thread would generate a new ID for that person, rather than one ID being shared across the board)

That way, a person can stay anonymous if they wish, but can still be held accountable for their actions within a thread.

But like i mentioned, they can be spoofed if you have basic knowledge, so you shouldn't rely on them for identification purposes.
You cant masquerade as another person, but you CAN appear to be completely new, so your mods should hopefully learn or have learned how to identify people through other means than IP or ID.

Pipes only uses thr Shitpost trip now , any PipesTtba , Kagamin#987 or Bunny trips are not Pipes, they are probably Adwrii or a troll, Pipes uses a static IP and is easily recognisable.

As for your orignal question, Efchan isnt a Pony site, its a dump, Lunachan isnt really a pony site anymore, it doesnt even have a pony board, i think its haunted too.
