If my other admin wants to add anything to this, please do so in the comments below. Basically, we are a free-speech instance, but all crazy and controversial comments and posts will be limited to the dank, microwave taco and dank memes going forward with special considerations given to the Donald’s community. We want a functional website and I think in all other communities aside from the ones I’ve listed above, we should have civil discussion and good faith conversation. If people go into communities that are not designated for crazy and controversial posts and start drama, then you will be banned from that community, but not banned from the instance.

    Limit controversial comments? What is controversial to you?

    You’re starting to sound like the leftist scum I wanted to get away from.

      If you are not a troll or a bot, you will notice little change from the way we have been running since inception. Must be over a year now.

        I’m just worried since Wiggle’s statements are all over the place now. First he wants to talk to the other instances, then he says “fuck em”, which he should have from the beginning, then he turns around and wants to bend the knee to their censorship again?

        Is Wiggle still fit to be an admin of this instance?

          None of this is easy.

          Nobody is going to make perfect decisions 100% of the time.

          But @[email protected] is 100% heart and he is putting a lot of effort into making Exploding Heads successful.

          We have steered a pretty consistent course for over a year now. We are just learning how to deal with bots and trolls taking away from others enjoyment of Exploding Heads.

          We are not bending the knee.

            We will not be allowed to play well with the reddit transplants. They want a space as “curated” (or even more extremely) than what they left. If this place isn’t full of left-thing and virtue signalling they’re always going to call us Nazis in the end.

            So the best would be to try and gather all the normal “right” wing, libertarians, hippies and so on. Everyone who thinks free speech is important and for good reason. Honestly our group is vastly larger than theirs, it’s just more splintered and have plenty who aren’t yet internet savvy. And probably a lot have internalised self censorship.
