I mean really quiet. Users here have to remember that Cage is based outside the United States. Those that do the moderation live outside the US. There is a culture difference on how moderation is handled. I've been dinged twice: Once on a blog, second on a forum post. The blog get me an email telling me it was taken down and the forum post just vanished with no communication. I figured I deserved both, so never questioned it. I also know two people who have had blog posts removed cuz someone was "offended". What it really was the people who complained didn't like what they read for a political reason. In both cases, the blogs were restored after review and I believe one of the people who complained got their wee wee smacked (in a non consenting way). Now this crap about "what's hot" popularity contest is one of the reasons Fet is the stinking cesspool it is today. Their Kinky & Popular used to have interesting photos about Real D/s and stories and blog posts. Now it is shit filled influencer bullshit where S&M means Stand & Model. We already have the forum posts that rotate due to latest reply, but leave the fucking blogs alone. You want people to read your blog? Work at it and post once a day. You really want people to read your blog? QUIT FUCKING USING A BASIC BLACK FONT! My intent is not to focus on what makes a popular or successful blog but rather what would facilitate discussion on this platform without what I am at least viewing as an exploitation of the rules. I am also inclined to agree that popularity based blogs may lead to to the arguably negative mirroring of fetlifes influence based community. However logically I think that is a slippery slope fallacy. There isn't a logical conclusion that things must end that way, or that there is nothing which could prevent that. The filter being set to "new" blogs by default would be a minor tool to prevent this by putting new blogs in front of users first and foremost. And again, I'm only advocating for the OP level of moderation that blogs have. I don't care if its blogs, or a new page called the cracker diaries. I aim to keep the ongoing and rolling discussion facet that the I find valuable in the forums without the aspect of others censoring what one person or a group of people wish to talk about. |
