I meant to say there is a lack of mod drama at consumeproduct.win. Recently some proto rapist sperg stalked and doxxed a girl so there's your drama, but it wasn't mod drama or anything that would drive people to arete.
I guess I saw this as being a different backup with a different culture than scored
scored has basically gone full no-moderation of their communities, kind of, so I thought arete was different in being a little more hands on
globally I thought they were just letting mods do whatever that's legal, while of course specific mods have different rules they enforce on their .wins/communities
It's been pretty iffy ever since C shut down the mod discord and rebraded to "Scored, a Delaware company". We're now cut off from any form of direct communication with its administration.
Most went to telegram. But telegram is really more for sharing memes and vids than for discussion. So you need a forum. But: poal has gayer admins than reddit even, talk.lol has a pedo infestation and lazy admin, and here is dead.
You do have to ask for permission before being granted access to board creation. You can blame rdrama.net porn and *wiggercide* spammer trolls for that.

I suggest promoting it wherever you can. I'd love for it to take off. Maybe the telegram group you mentioned if you're active there.
About the policy here: No porn boards or doxing, otherwise anything goes as long as it's legal and not blatantly made in bad faith (eg. an attempt at trolling).
I hope that includes forum sliding with agreeable content, shitty memes more or less on topic, and a combination of the two. I don’t think anyone can create as shitty a meme as AI bots.
Also userbase dramafagging (eg “anyone who disagrees is a fed/shill/jew” and “shills downvote my (new)(funny) posts” etc). Its inorganic and reeks of botplay.
this site is the most responsive of other reddit alternatives, for me
seemed like it started with a decent crowd
I guess there's just more people elsewhere so the network effect keeps some people back?

This does mean that by default some things have been censored from the front page, including TD, GA, and even all posts containing the word Jew.

which is why I assumed that, even if people were going to be on scored, that this site would be more active.
:(
