Articles & Happenings is the third attempt at a news board on the Kiwi Farms. It is a cursed place. Every moderator who has been assigned here has resigned within a year. During 2016, the political crossfire was so bad it spread to different boards and culminated in me banning American news discussion entirely for several months. It has been deleted in its entirety twice. There is no actual discussion here, it's people posting garbage. It leans much further right than the rest of the site and doesn't particularly conduct discussion because dissenting opinions are dogpiled by a thousand memelords posting shit they read on /pol/ without any critical analysis.

The only rules that can be enforced are empirical ones with boolean violation answers. New threads must cite a real source directly and must use the headline of the article as a thread title without any editorializing. Articles must be archived in some way and must link to the original article. Replies that are one word or a reaction images are automatic one-month bans from the board.

I'm creating this now because it seems like this place is here to stay and is one of the largest areas of the entire site. I might as well throw in bare minimum effort to improve it. I don't even try to find mods for here because they will quit, without exception. I've added new prefixes ("Business" and "Crime") just now.

Discuss.


New threads should be made like this.

The problem with the a&h board is it doesn't have enough black supremacists to even out the pol-tards. I wish @The Pink Panther would learn the truth about the Edomites and cavebeasts and become truly woke, like me.

Yeah. Ideally you ignore nobody, but if it's a choice between that or unning to the mods to shut down the entire section of the site the conversation you don't like is happening on, then use the fucking ignore function.

And if someone just spams stupid shit it gets in the way, so you block them. Or do some people think banning spam bots is for pussies too?
It's not a choice between those two options though, because running to the mods is gay as fuck bullshit that nobody should ever do regardless of their political persuasion. The options are to report or ignore. You, and I mean the royal you here, since we are noting that now apparently, ignore a thousand fuck witted mongoloid scribbles every time you browse simply by picking the threads you want to read.

I don't give a shit about ratings even though mine are overwhelmingly positive
Hey you know that if you really didn't care about ratings it never would have occurred to you to mention your ratio right? You need to up your feigned apathy game son.

Also I am totally on board with our new rating system, although if one of the ratings is corbin the other two have to be users too. @Senior Lexmechanic is quite clearly angling for the left wing one, although @Ashy the Angel has kind of taken the mantle of 'most hated leftie' in recent times, (sorry @ProgKing of the North, you're too chill.) We have a wide range to choose from when it comes to bitch ass fence sitters, although personally I would suggest @Alec Benson Leary, because I'm a bitch ass fence sitter and want to put the best face on it the rating pic will be very easy.
 
I'm impressed A&H, we managed to piss Null and the mods off so much we got our own moonman rating.

You boys and girls (and whatever else in between) make me proud.
