Good evening, my little ponies! As part of a staff initiative to be more transparent and accessible to users, we are publishing our Ponyville Transparency Report!
https://docs.google.com/document/d/13FQ7OLp1-kcFBNNCB9lfzFKxh-r8StQy3b3nzYHHviE/edit?usp=sharingWe will try to do this monthly! The thread will be open here for a week, and then moved to Canterlot for further commenting.
This month, we welcome the return of !!Trixie, Zeke Roa, who is helping us develop gochan.ponyville.us, as well as assisting us in moderating!
We are also seeing the departure of Savvy, Brazie, Abby, and Peppermint... whom shall be dearly missed. They are all taking a break from administration.
This month, we are also sharing the results of our poll, as well!
Please take a look, dear ponies: what we do, we do for all of you. <3

>>1243I believe it's that the user that self identified as one is allowed to post at all. From the argument I saw Manly give it was "It doesn't matter if he doesn't talk about it, you can't allow racists on the site!"

>>1250I capitalise White, and every other race. I’m pretty sure Starshine was the first to point it out.
I don’t see why races shouldn’t be capitalised if nationalities are. I also capitalise ideologies, like Fascism, Capitalism, Veganism, etc.

>>1254>you are the sole reason why people were questioning about white supremacy here; Eh, not quite. He's the most vivid example, but there's some other people with less extreme views that still make users uncomfortable.
>>1246>>1247Whether or not Mint strictly or officially falls into the category doesn't change people from labeling his behaviors as such, and it's the behavior itself that discomforts people.
>>1253This post here, for example, is going to strike most people as supporting white supremacy. It even insults what's actually probably the majority of the site in the process. That the poster has a detailed hierarchy of race of which white is technically not at the top doesn't change that.

>>1262It's quite clearly not true, and frankly, this is exactly why the question had me worried.
It's rather evident that people like yourself do not have a notion what 'white supremacy' or, for that matter, even racism are.
Rather, it seems to be simply pointed out given your posts to be "anything I don't like and can assume the worst about".
>>1263Amusing.
No need, in my case.
I am, flatly, not racist. There is no but. Any "but" is the result of people misrepresenting me in a dishonest manner in what seems to typically be their own insecurities that require them to assume the absolute worst of others.

Come on, now. Surely you gathered what I'm talking to you about, here. You don't think I just randomly started complaining about the hostile and rather insulting assumptions, did I?
My entire premise here is that you made a rather, frankly, dickish accusation towards me because I had the audacity to presume someone was using an English standard rule.
I'm certain you have the mental capability to follow basic context, here.
>>1266How cute.
You'll note, I was never banned for being 'racist'. That's simply not something that is the case. But, hey, keep making up shit about me, I'm sure it'll somehow magically convince me,.

>>1271I do not agree. I do not think all "non-sociopathic" members share the rather backwards idea that anyone who dares say "Is that actually racist though" is a racist-defender.
It could well be that they, as in my case, simply disagree with your standards for racism, as they're quite evidently quite open to things that are definitely not racism.
>as for your quotes, if you didn't feel there was truth to it, you wouldn't get so defensive about it.Ah, of course, if you're upset at someone lying about you and your beliefs, that means those lies are totally true.
What backwards logic.
I'll have to keep it in mind if you ever get upset at anything someone else calls you, then.
