The only remaining board changes will be minor unless otherwise escalated(in the sense of all other actions don't work).

I think board closures should have an announcement at least out of respect for the people who mainly post on those boards.

"We've discussed it, and decided that CE requires 10,000 karma to go and post there. While we have also increased the required karma of other boards to 5,000 Karma or higher. With this we're confident there will no longer be issued of safety, trust and toxicity."

Yeah that's noob tier admin shenanigans right there. Even CJayC only did it once and didn't seem to think it was the best idea. I'm not counting the level locked boards which wouldn't really be missed either way since they have little to no activity and are mostly bragging rights. I think maybe the veteran board has a community that's tiny, one of them does at any rate.

He doesn't know that some of the highest karma users are also some of the most modded. Much like he doesn't know anything about Gamefaqs.

I literally created a topic on 261 and when it refreshed the page to display it the fucking board was locked.

I mean, this is the same guy who doxxed himself with his very first post, then blamed everyone else for it.

We can't give him too much credit.

It's so out of touch. Allen refused to ever do this, he recognized that dividing the user base that way would only serve to make people more toxic. His overall rationale was to not use the biggest stick until necessary so that people on average wouldn't push things to their farthest extreme. Seems that's out the window now, though there were hints in some other dead policy decisions that the new admins cbf to look to the past.

They looked at Allens feedback and said "Thank you for the feedback, but we're not going to listen to it."

religion is inherently political so that is a ban on religious talk anywhere but CE

so just another reason for them to close CE, because there's too much tension caused by religious debates

It's all intentional. They want all the politics and other stuff here because they know there are vast differences of opinions on the subjects.

Then they can use it as justification for their whole "Safety, trust and toxicity" reasoning when they close CE.

It really is all coming together.
