Why you would ever put an inane nogunz as a mod to a weapons board is beyond me, especially when you can get banned for "ilegil silencurs". See this thread for details.>>>/k/12523475This mod has no fucking clue what they're doing. I got banned for making a hunting thread once, and i just recently got banned for making a birthday thread for a dying /k/ommando (or his daughter, at least).
Probably the same mod who banned someone for posting a picture of a full-clothed girl and saying "Idiot pedophile"This mod really has a loose grasp on what "against the law" is. Talking about either subject isn't illegal. Thoughtcrime bullshit
Forgive the angry caption.This was a thread last night that started getting into a pretty good discussion about the HK416 Vs the M4 platform, and then the mod deletes it.Meanwhile, dickvore threads are fine.
>>118513>I dont like what this guys sayingInane Trolling GarbageGet this bitch out of here.
Holy Jesus fucking Christ, I don't even browse /k/, but I'm mad. This inane mod needs to go
Holy fucking shit.This is /tg/'s Nazimod cranked up to 13
>>118532Funny part is the physical isn't illegal, either. Suppressors/silencers are perfectly legal. The mod is just so fucking stupid that he doesn't even know. And yet, here this jackass is policing the entire Weapons board banning good people while tripfags like Squid, Heartbreaker, Michaelangelo, and Zed shitpost up every single thread for months. Heartbreaker for about 4 years now nonstop.
This mod has banned over bringing up weapon discussion such as discussing the Arms Trade Treaty, even though it was a totally legitimate /k/ thread and had nothing to do with /pol/.This mod has also deleted threads about legitimate safe gunsmithing but has allowed certain trip users to actually post terribly incorrect destructive directions to modify their guns. Keep in mind these trip users were not trolling or trying to be humorous they were honest to God uniformed and had no business talking about firearms.
>>118562Continuing my rant now with things I've been banned from /k/ for but didn't think to screenshot:>2 weeks: Linking to a website that had information relevant to the thread, about guns. >2 weeks: Linking to a website with a disassembly manual for the gun OP was asking about.>1 week: For reporting someone for shitposting and trolling.>1 week: Linking to a forum with information about survivalism. Was considered advertisement.>2 days: For reporting someone for shitposting and raiding /k/ with content from other boards>Above ban was extended to 1 week after my appeal was denied.And every description involved "inane trolling garbage" or "wasting the mod's time" when I'd report someone.
The mod also allows all shit posting and bullshit trolling provided that it is pro gun control./k/ is more than capable of discussing law and order and real questions about weapons, but instead these threads are discouraged (if they ever get to "real") and instead the moderation supports /sci/'s equivalent of "God wrote the Bible checkmate atheists" type threads./k/ is a great place but the moderation is absolutely terrible and actively seeks to get rid of quality posts and instead keep a population that does not own weapons (and likes to keep it that way) and talk about stupid vidya or what some current hyped Hollywood military gun is.Once again, regular /k/ommandos are great people, it is an extremely small minority supported by moderation responsible for the shit posting.
>>118543>pretty good discussion about the HK416 Vs the M4 platformReally? I didn't realize nogunz CoDfags going 'X group uses X gun, so it's good' and actual /k/ommandos who know what they are talking about telling them how full of shit they are is 'good discussion'.
>>118602>caring about what group of people believes what>thinking gun related topics should be deleted>thinking they should be deleted because of baseless arguments based on weapons
>>118581I bet it is the same mod who did this here: http://archive.foolz.us/a/thread/59800267/#59800267I don't know what the fuck goes through the heads of them when they try to moderate a board they don't know jackshit about.
>>118602>>118623Well here's the thread in question, looks exactly like a thread you'd expect to find on a board dedicated to talking about weapons.http://archive.heinessen.com/k/thread/S12508589
I was just browsing that thread, decided to come over here and post about it. Gotta say, I'm surprised that daytime /k/ actually did it. Hopefully we'll get a better mod out of this.I know better than to expect that to happen.
>Hopefully we'll get a better mod out of this.laughingmods.jpg
Yes moot, address this issue, you need t lay the law down upon your staff. Their job is to enforce the rules, not power trip.even if they are you friends or some shit.I'm tired of reading interested RELATED threads, only to have the 404 upon refresh.
>>118694I'm tired of interesting /k/ related threads getting deleted while inane trolling shit-fest threads are allowed to go for hundreds of posts.
mods = fagsbloxxo
>>>/k/12524123>>>/k/12523344>>>/k/12522765
>>118808>>>/k/12523344Is clearly a case of making a new thread by mistake.and>>>/k/12522765Is /k/ related.
ITT:>Waaaaah waaaaaaah, Mr. Moderator is being mean to me! Help me, moot!If you got banned, it's because you did something wrong. Suck it up.
The Great Lamp Sticky.Well hey as long as trolls, shitposters,/b/ raids, anti-military/peace and pro-gun control/gun-banning threads are allowed carte blanche on /k/, might as well sticky an accident of a thread for a week to piss off the board community while ignoring/deleting relevent and helpfull threads.It's good to show contempt for the people who frequent /k/ and create an atmosphere of distrust and resentment.
>>118928But he has to give a reason what was done wrong so we can learn from those mistakes.
>>118638that's kind of embarrassing
>meanwhile on /k/>>>/k/12525362
The people who are bitching about certain Tripfags not getting banned need to shut the fuck up and realize that, while they might offend you for whatever reason, they still bring OC and knowledge to the board. Quit being a myopic, whining cunt about tripfags, and filter them if you're really that worried about it. Focus on the things the mod does wrong, that are actually wrong, not things that you don't like.
>>118638That was warranted. AoJ is a constant shitposter who does nothing but viral and advertise his terrible shirts./a/ is for anime, not for self promotion.
>>118968>There are about 200 tripfags on /k/>we complained about 5There are plenty that do great things. And there are about 5 we want to strangle because they turn everything they touch into shit. You're a retard. Don't comment on the issue if you don't know the issue.
>>118972Read the mods justification.
I'm going to say the same thing I said in a similar thread.Janitors>Mods.Mods ban, janitors delete trolls posts and spam.A troll gets banned, a troll has more proxies ready. An innocent gets banned, he's fucked.Mods are only bad for good posters.Janitors can keep a place clean of spam and other issues just as well as a mod, they send the same message that some things are not ok and they can't hurt anyone.
>>118976Whatever, he had it coming for thinking advertising is OK because he posts Spice and Wolf images every now and then. Plus the fact that he gave away proxies to Accel spammer and built up a terrible fan club to shit up the board due to his absence.In addition to ban evading as well. AoJ should have been range banned and his site an auto-ban.
>>118973>Squid, Heartbreaker, Michaelangelo, and Zed>SquidOwns weapons that not many people on /k/ own, and will willingly give information on them. Also very versed in gear. >HeartbreakerKnows just about every California law, and how to circumvent it legally. Also owns a nice collection of firearms.>MichaelangeloPretty versed in AR's, as well as M&P's. While he might be a little condescending for a teenager, he does know what he's talking about. >ZedNo argument. I am a /k/ tripfag, by the way, not one of the ones listed, but I started tripping in 2005.
MOOT just doesn't give a flying fuck about /k/. That's why he's been supporting this mod for years all the while the best of /k/ contributors have left for reddit (I see a bunch of /k/ old timers there now) and AR15 com and other sites. Soon, all the good people will leave. All thanks to this mod.
I've come to suspect that MOOT just doesn't give a flying fuck about /k/. That's why he's been supporting this mod for years all the while the best of /k/ contributors have left for reddit (I see a bunch of /k/ old timers there now) and AR15 com and other sites. After numerous emails to him, after numrous threads on /q/ and /k/, moot hasn't changed a thing.Soon, all the good people will leave. All thanks to this mod.
>>118993Are you really trying to argue that Squid, Heartbraker, Michaelangelo and Zed aren't world-class shitposters?Squid only brags and shows off, general attention whore, Heartbraker always goes on about how he's right and everyone else is wrong (is also GiRL), Michaelangelo is pretty much the same a Squid, and Zed is Zed.>>119012Seriously, Moot, just axe the summabich.
>>119012>goes to Reddit>Think someone cares about his opinion.
>>119018>thinking Heartbreaker and GiRL are the same personConfirmed for Grade A USDA choice retard.
>>119023Don't blame it on him man, he's been here all summer. >>119018Squid does brag and show off, but he does it while informing people about the items. Get the fuck over yourself.
>>118968Tripfag hate will seep in to any thread about "issues" and is unavoidable. Personally I don't care either way since I can actually ignore them.Back to the /k/ mod...jeez: The lamp sticky, the silencer ban, the full auto .22 bans, the prolific 'inane trolling garbage' bans which are seemingly temperamental( I myself have gotten temp bans to "keep /new/ [/pol/ I guess, maybe mod didn't get the memo] out of /k/" for responding to someone on friendly terms or posting that the OP is not /k/ related). At least those word-fillters went away.cont...
>>119050I'm pretty sure there's still a filter ban for Svet.
This guy looks like a great mod
>>119050Then there is neglect. Yeah I guess everyone could want a sticky of their thread and that shouldn't happen, but there has been TONS of helpfull threads and threads that somehow BECAME helpfull with great info and insight that are not sticky'd: Home gunsmithing, Preparing to join the military, war stories, hunting and inna woods threads...all that turned out with no trolls and a fun exchange between posters, and THAT'S not as important as a LAMP for at least a couple days?I remember a bunch of rants about BOOF having a thread deleted by the mod as people were asking questions. No, not everything should be sticky'd, but a sense of the mod paying attention to a thread's purpose and bennefit, not to mention enjoyment of the board community should be appearent.
>>119063I agree. I want a mod like him on /sp/.
This mod is out of hand. He seriously has no business being on /k/ at all.
The only good thing the mod has going for him is smacking all the bullshit redguard threads and /pol/faggotry.Other than that, he needs to go.
>>119026This thread isn't about trips *not* getting banned. It's about our mod banning for the stupidest shit, which is often /k/ related, and generally being a piece of shit in the ban "reason" field.
>>119092Which is why they shouldn't have been brought up in the first place, something I pointed out above the post you linked.
It's neat to see these mods from other boards being posted on /q/. I had no idea it was so bad for other boards. Makes me appreciate /co/ a lot more. I'm surprised Moot has done nothing with this mod and wish you /k/ommandos good luck.
What do you guys think about a /k/ sticky too? At least a few times a day I see a "what should my first gun be" thread, or a "/k/'s thoughts on _______" thread. Could just be a post (or something like /sci/ has) with a list of general consensus's, such as >skip on the nugget for a first gun, get a .22 of some kind to get proficient withAlso could have torrent links of do/k/uments of some sort.>implying anyone capable of doing that will ever read this thread
>>119140I'm sure Moot's gotten at least a hundred emails regarding the matter by now, and would be very surprised if anything actually happened. If you haven't emailed Moot, you're not doing your part.
>>119152That's one of the issues, there are no stickies because the mod has no clue about the board and has shown time after time animosity and contempt for the board and the posters.A sticky for basic or first timer's questions would show involvement, knowledge and participation between the mod and /k/. If you look at merely /v/'s or /tg/'s stickies it's a slap in the face when you go back to /k/ and the only work, sense of community and policing of the board is being done by the posters, and then they get fucked with by the mod when he goes on a temper-tantrum.The /k/ mod prefers to do things more as a practical joke or outright trolling than being usefull.
Bumping because moot hasn't replied yet. I don't even frequent /k/ and this pisses me off. Fucking niggermod on a power trip.
>>119798Have you tried emailing him?
hey guysguyslisten guyswhat ifguysno seriouslywhat if weweguyswhat if we brought back snacks?
>>119798He appears late atnight, around 3 or 4
>>119844Quoted from rule page:/q/ - 4chan Discussion>1. Users are free to discuss the site amongst themselves and with the 4chan team.>2. Constructive criticism only. Shitposting, trolling, flooding, and ban evasion will not be tolerated.reported.
>>119864>implying W.T. Snacks wouldn't be able to easily fix /k/'s problemspls go
>>119849Well then...Bump untill the wee morn it seems.
>>119864Announcing a report is also against 4chan rules. I suggest you learn them before quoting them.
>>118939This. I wouldn't mind getting banned so much if he would quote the post he's banning me for and explain his reasoning like an adult instead of just saying "Banned for posting inane garbage like an inane infant".
>>119972The "inane" thing is getting to the point that I'm willing to be happy with moot creating a word filter so that "kid" becomes "inane" when typed. Then the mod can be ridiculed into actually doing their job.
>>120001Kid and Inane should both be filtered.
>>120001>i have way more guns than you, inane.
>>118928Holy shit suck some more moderator cock. The things posted in this thread clearly show people being banned without legitimate cause.
>>118928So, getting banned because you're talking about suppressors is ok, right? Because that's what you're saying. You're saying that it's ok for a mod to ban a poster from /k/ for talking about suppressors, because he's ignorant of the laws and thinks they're illegal. You are on par with the mod in levels of faggotry.
>Call the mods normalfags many moons ago>Get banned for a week with the faggot mod citing rule 8 in the ban reasonNot exactly /k/ related but if this shit is happening then there's a big problem.
The mods have a difficult task, and I can sympathize, but it would be nice to at least have some kind of board chat with moot. I don't think I have seen him post there since the O.K. /korral.
>>120137>The mods have a difficult task. So did the Apollo astronauts, and they didn't start fucking shit up worse than it was because it wasn't hard. If you can't handle the stress of being a mod, guess what, stop being a god damned mod, and turn it over to someone who's actually willing to put in the effort. Or, better yet, don't apply for mod if you're a 12 year old British noguns faggot.
>>120151>Any criticism should be constructive and related to 4chan. Do not attack other users.I realize the irony in posting the rule instead of reporting and ignoring, but I also realize the fact that something like this is rageworthy and keeping civilized is a pain in the ass. I feel like being civilized is the right way to go with this though.
>>120162Looking through your post history in this thread, you are the last person who needs to be talking about following rules.
>>118993Yeah, that Zed was a real non-contributor. I'm glad the mod perma'd him for ban evasion even though he never evaded anything, ever. I don't want shit like this in my /k/.
>>120169The more I think about it, the Mod really is really only half of the problem on /k/, it's the butthurt mass of Anons who constantly shitpost in response to actual posts by tripfags. Like I've said before in this thread, if tripfags bother you, filter them. Take your picture for example, informative posts in a well thought out and written manner; Probably followed by a hundred replies of "HURR FAGGOT ZED GIT OUT MAH /k/, ANON R LEGION."
I mean, seriously, fuck Zed. That shitposter. I mean, just look!
>>120137Zed posts some cool shit from time too time. He just comes across as a asshole very often. However, I do agree. The posters need to learn to ignore or filter.
>>120187>>120169Nice try, zed.
Man, it sure is a good thing that the mod doesn't let Zed post with his tripcode anymore, so we don't have to have goddamn tripfag shitposting like this in /k/ anymore. We were sick to death of it!
>>120187that is basic wood working not gun smithing.the fact that he blows up like a child in any thread that has a make or opinion he doesn't like he spams with sage and shit posts with inane trolling garbage.most of the people he picks on are new to guns too, guy is an ass hat.
>>120184>the Mod really is really only half of the problemNo, not really. The tripfag problem is minute compared to this "inane" fucking mod, who DELETES THREADS AND BANS on his own horrible interpretation of the rest of the worlds gun laws ("Hurrr Silencrs 'n autos r ilegal"), or on his own opinions for each user ("Inane trolling garbage" being his all time excuse.) I can also point to the deleted thread about the UNs Arms Trade Treaty. Moot needs to fucking do something before he loses the rest of the community to reddit/Arfcom and we end up with only CoDfags.
>>120211Totally dude. Totally. I mean, no one likes Zed, that jerk. /k/ is just better without this kind of thing.
Zed only makes good posts immediately after he's evaded a ban for shitposting all day or all week.Then HE screencaps the helpful posts and keeps them on hand just for when people say he shitposts. And then this faggot in here completely falls for it.Believe me, I used to know the guy. Spoke to him everyday. He used to be a good friend, but he's turned into human garbage.
>>120224Yes, I surely will believe that you have lived your life in the presence of Zed, and he was your dearest friend turned evil villain. That's much easier to believe than you being a butthurt anon.
>>120224this guy right here nails it.I wouldn't be surprised if Zed is posting in this thread right now.
>>120230He and I ran the original /k/ tinychat together with a few other folks and we'd all be on cam talking about nuggets every night, shitlord.We used to get shit done back in 2009-2010. But something happened to him after that group broke up, and I really wish I knew what.tl;dr You're a faggot.
>>120234What was your name on Tinychat, I was there too at that time, and I don't remember Zed being any different then he is now.
>>120237Here's a picture of Bex saved December 30, 2010 for a little assurance.
>>120224>Zed>evaded a banNever happened. Ask the other mods.But boy, it sure is a good thing the mod keeps people who post "inane and irrelevant trolling garbage" like this out of /k/.
>>120242Captcha ate my pic.
>>120220Nice cherry picking. I notice you didn't save any pictures of him shitting up and trolling reloading threads.
>>120244Zed, I don't think you realize your samefag is showing.And again, the tripfag issue is nothing compared to the mods problems, which is what this thread is about.
bump, because there's a post on the front page about "fluffy ponies"
No trip hate, /k/ can police themselves when it comes to posters being annoying.This is supposed to be about the problems with the mod.
Bumping. This needs a response.
Agreed, this mod doesn't know shit about weapons or weapon related laws and is given the authority to police a weapons board. There is also the fact that he justifies some of his bans with "inane trolling garbage" or variations thereof, which isn't particularly descriptive and is used frequently on posters that are contributing to discussion about weapons. Everyone on /k/ has had it with this mod.
>>120502This "inane and irrelevant" guy is disliked on multiple boards. I think he's a good friend of moot's though so the best you're probably going to get is him toning it down a little bit.
another frequent user/lurker of /k/ here, our mod's an asshat, the tripfags usually at least stay in their circly-jerkily threads they make for themselves , to "get a room" per se'. the mod however shits up the ENTIRE board
calling it now, moots reply will be "il lhave a talk to him" like the last few hundred times.how about you bring back the o/k/ corral and actually make the board a better place instead of telling this fucking pathetic excuse for a mod to "curb his inane trolling garbage"
This guy is on /sci/ tooHe's insane
>>120588More like "He's inane" amirite?Anyway, I recall Moot saying he'd talk to the mod, but I haven't seen any change in his bannings.
>>120588>i've seen the word inane so many times today my mind subconsciously read "insane" as "inane"God dammit.
>>120588I wonder how many boards have a problem with this guy.
>>120621Haven't seen him over on /g/
>>120621Speculation, but this might be the same guy who moot allegedly banned from touching /a/ back in 2011.
Still waiting on ya Moot.
MOOOOOOOTLES! Please address this issue.
Bump.I can't stay up anymore. I hope these issues get addressed.
Bumping. MOOT, WHERE ARE YOU?
Bump.purpose raccili
trying to make a thread and keep getting fucking flood detection so I'll just post hereMost of the threads are military and history related, this means that they aren't directly weapons related, and some people complain about it, but where else are they going to post about it? A hell of a lot of users are active, retired or joining the military. I'm propose that we change the name of the board to:Weapons and MilitaryAny feedback?
>>118513Just going to post in this thread and say the mod on /k/ is a massive fucking retarded asshole.Thanks mootykins.
This is completely insane. I can't even post on any board, let alone /k/ without watching what I say to avoid being banned. For fucks sake moot this is 4chan. I understand that we need mods because of all the people complaining about shitposting but this is too much. If newfags are too autistic to ignore threads they don't want to see they don't deserve to be catered to. I eagerly await a civilized reponse and hopefully not a random ban.
>>121048I think that's kind of an unstated rule. /k/ has always been friendly to military threads in my experience. They're encouraged, especially war stories threads.
>>121053Thing is, I made a thread asking about drug tests in the military. Got 2 comments saying 'how is this weapons related?'Also seen many asking about kit lists, stories about basic etc and getiing people going 'not weapons related'I seriously think changing the name to weapons and military could clear it up.
>>121054Not sure. Personally, i'd love to see more of that kind of thing, and not only do I think its best suited for /k/ but I don't think it warrants an entire new board.I was always under the impression military threads were /k/ related.
>>121056Nah, I'm not saying make a /k/ weapons and a /k/ military board, just saying the name of /k/ should be changed to /k/ - weapons and military.
>>121054Yeah, that's a major issue with /k/. Gear, military life topics and even armchair theoreticals get slamed for "not being /k/ related" whereas asinine redguard threads only partially relative to weapons or military issues get a free pass. It's equal parts the bad mod and the user base being infested by /pol/ cancer.
>>121048>>121053>>121054This issue goes deeper then that, because the mod deletes threads actually talking about the WEAPONS THEMSELVES (ex. silencer ban, others) or gun law. That's why we're here. This is the only thread moot has ignored for this long on /q/, and I think it may have something to do with dick sucking.>>121058Throw this suggestion in as well.
>>121062Yep, I've emailed moot several times asking him to change the name of /k/ but he hasn't replied, which is fair enough because he probably gets so many.Still,on this it might make a difference.Think the 2 main requests here are1 - Get rid of that fucking cunt mod that is destroying /k/2 - Change the name of the board to /k/ - Weapons and Miltary to avoid 'not weapons related' bans, comments and general bullshit
>>121064Bumping these 2 requests. Seems to be our final consensus on this.
>>121064I think a sticky would do good for the board. Just a thought, though.
>>121089Way I see it, we can have a massive sticky saying oh we accept military posts etc that stays at the top of the board all the time.Or we can just change the name, which would look a lot cleaner.Personal preference though.
Oh wow, this is fucking retarded. But oh well, it is known that moot chooses mods that are good in circlejerking, not being adequate and cleaning the board.
>>121090meant more like another post i made here:>>119152
>>121096I actually started a wikia page with that intention, it never got completed though. Here's my unfinished workhttp://kweapons.wikia.com/wiki/Kweapons_Wiki
