Edit: I'm still not gonna post about bugfixes tho, theres way too many

Everyone please say hello to @Bardfinn. You are reading that correctly: Bardfinn. She’s written extensively about us over the years, both collectively and individually, and we’ve extended an all-access pass to her for rDrama in order to assist with her research into racially-motivated violent extremism and a variety of other social justice issues.

Right off the bat, she was repulsed by the things you people say and do and think and threatened to storm out of the rDrama corporate offices if we didn’t take swift and drastic action. And so we’ve given her a button to chud everyone in order to correct behavior and thought among the assorted flavors of misic masses.

(if you find a way to hide the chud required text, let aevann know what it was via dm and you’ll be given 5000mb)

/h/chudrama is now automatically boosted in the ranking algorithm. “No one will see my takes about how trains are the sole reason why the West is falling if I post them there so why would I bother?” is now even less valid an excuse for chudposting outside of Chudrama. We also lowered the truescore requirement to 1488 (down from 5000) some time ago.

Please note that Chudrama is still opt-in. YOU WILL NOT SEE CHUDPOSTS UNLESS YOU CLICK /h/chudrama AND UNBLOCK IT AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN.

You’ve all done much better than usual lately about not pooping up the main feed with boring agendaposts. Please continue that and use this new buff to incentivize your good behavior.

Remember: Black Lives Matter. Trans rights are human rights. Science is real. Vaccines work. Die mad.

trans lives matter

In order to even see the posts in /h/chudrama, you’ll have to click to unblock it.

Please post your chud takes there and not in public. There is no retribution for chuddery in /h/chudrama. You don’t even need to TLM if you’re chud awarded.

Please behave.

Thank

If you'd like to join the fast-paced, jet-setting world of rDrama content moderation, please take the attached assessment of your potential and post your results here for further consideration. Human Resources will contact you if you are selected to move onto the next round of interviews.

We reported earlier that Aevann's GitHub account got jannied. Still no official word why, but our best guess at present is:

rDrama, being one of the most malevolent, cruel, coldhearted online communities you'll ever find, is resilient enough to host our own shit when we get deplatformed. We'd already planned for this inevitability, and we are proud to present our own Gitea instance:

fsdfsd.net

Anyone who wants to contribute code to the site or to host any other rDrama-related Git repo is free to sign up. No more need for a burner GitHub account! We don't verify emails; it just has to be the same as your git config user.email—even if that's a fake address without a mailbox like <username>@fsdfsd.net if you want.

We have to manually approve new accounts—Neko says there's pajeet spammers who target Gitea instances —so ping 'aevann sneks jc' with your fsdfsd username if it takes us more than a couple hours to notice.

For people with existing copies of the site repo, you can git remote set-url <remote> https://fsdfsd.net/rDrama/rDrama.git. Note also we renamed the default branch from frost to master—if we're off GitHub, we're using the politically-incorrect branch name.

Special thanks to @justcool393 for porting the rDrama midnight.css theme over and Marsifying the site (Marsey comment reactions coming soon), and thanks to @nekobit for inspiring the domain name.

Finally, if anyone wants to speculate wildly about how the GitHub account got jannied, maybe a certain Dr. Oaken who we know watched the GitHub might be to blame.

Hiiiiiiiiii! Aevann had a really wonderful idea this morning after I posted that thread titled “There are more cases of monkeypox among children than women. What does this mean gaybros??” with a link to a monkeypox study.

Before we proceed, I’d like to clarify something: almost a hundred of you upvoted this thread in like an hour. The thing is, the study linked didn’t say that. The study linked had nothing to do with women and children. It was just a random study about monkeypox, I have no clue what it said. You’re reactionary morons, all of you. Some of you gloated. Some of you defended it - “maybe it’s from roughhousing, maybe it’s child superspreader events.” You’re all idiots. Not one person even clicked the thing, the title alone would have given away that it was just some completely irrelevant study. Shame on you.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand: Aevann had this really great idea to give our r-slurs a home without having to constantly clean it up for free and/or banish them to another platform. The deuxrama experiment was terrible and it was terribly mismanaged by the tards appointed to it. This is better.

Introducing: /h/chudrama!

Here is where you can post your chuddy bullshit. It better be funny though, or at least good slapfights. It’s not meant to be a displaced .win community. The catch is that you need 5,000 truescore to even view Chudrama. This should keep us from getting invaded by boring, unfunny qoomers and Nazis. They’ll still banned on sight. This is for established members who also like to chudpost. It is also hidden by default which brings me to the next part of this update:

(NOTE: posts in Chudrama are immune to the effects of the Chud Award)

Stealth Mode for Holes

Hole possessors can now navigate to their Hole settings page and enable Stealth Mode. What Stealth Mode does is keep the Hole’s content from appearing in the main feed to anyone not subscribed to the Hole. You can subscribe to a Hole by navigating to the Hole itself’s main page, and clicking that big ol button with the eye at the top. This applies by default to the following Holes:

• /h/Chudrama (also requires 5,000 truescore)

• /h/Braincels

• /h/Smuggies

to protect us from mean deplatforming bullies.

Stealth Holes will appear in a scary red font in the master list of Holes.

If you’d like to do CSS for Chudrama, send me a DM and I’ll go over what I’d like.

And, as a reminder, if you don’t like something that’s posted, you have many options! These include, but are by no means limited to: Scrolling down. Scrolling up. Closing your eyes. Going outside. Rethinking your life and the terrible decisions that led to you being this way. Going back to Reddit. Just dealing with it. Contrary to popular belief, you actually do not have to repeatedly cry to forum moderators to protect you!

Thanks!!!!!!

I love you.

xoxo Carp 💋

CHUDRAMA REQUIREMENT LOWERED TO 5K

—

REMEMBER TO CLICK “SHOW IN MAIN FEED” ON THE H/CHUDRAMA PAGE IF YOU WANT TO SEE CHUD CONTENT

This is actually really self-explanatory. And while I really love talking down to you people, I am tied up on the phone for the foreseeable future and it’s hard to make good written sentences like this.

Go to someone’s profile and you can leave them a post. Others can reply to this. It’s very handy for a lot of things even if you stupidly don’t see why just yet. You voted for this TWICE so no bitching. It’s also something I’ve been bitching to add since like August 2021.

While I am typing about profile walls and to save time, I will submit a request to Aevann here with the aim of further adding utility and MySpace pizazz: How about a third profile privacy setting? Friends only? That means people you follow who also follow you.

Not sure how walls work with private profiles at present but I assume they’re restricted.

We also made profile views free. This was formerly a paypig feature, but now everyone can use it. I’m pretty sure you can see who’s viewed others’ profiles too.. Pretty funny.

Paypigs can now upload their own site backgrounds if they want. Or that’s coming soon. It’s unclear. But it’s either now or soon. Go check out your settings page and see if it’s possible.

You may also be interested to know that I gave a like 4000 word interview to a Canadian journoid about WPD this afternoon. He’s published in a bunch of leaf publications and the Daily Mail or some other bong tabloid. Interesting resume. He doesn’t use Twitter much but he likes a lot of super-lib and coof doomer stuff there. I think he’s interviewing other snuff site admins as well, based on what he was saying. I don’t know if they’ll bite. So it’s probably going to either be just a few select quotes most likely chosen to push whatever his angle is, but here’s to hoping. I shouted you guys out a few times.

Hi there! We opened a Redbubble shop so you can buy Marsey swag to impress your friends and family with in real life!

https://www.redbubble.com/people/rdramanet/

Right now it's just a selection of existing Marseys (more to be added) which you can get in sticker form, on shirts, hats, bath mats, clocks, mugs, whatever sort of tchotchke you want. I am going to order a bunch of stickers after I upload more and probably make a scene out of them on my computer because that's what people do. They pay money for stickers of cartoon cats from gossip websites and decorate with them. Why aren't you doing that?

NOTE: Redbubble is r-slurred and if you're looking for something in a particular flavor (i.e. a pin or whatever), you can get that by clicking this idiotic tiny bar:

There is currently one bespoke design specifically made for extremely fashionable clothes:

but more will be added as time goes on.

If a Marsey you'd like included isn't yet there, just say so and me or Aevann will go add it right away.

Buying a piece of Marsey clothing and submitting a picture will earn you a never-before-obtained badge by casino king @McCoxmaul:

All transactions are through Redbubble. We have no means of finding your name, address, whatever. It is entirely anonymous.

Now go. Hurry! Consoom marsey merch!

AEVANN EDIT: https://rdrama.net/post/105265/guide-how-to-browse-redbubble-marseypainter

If @DeletedAccount ever returns it will be restored but as it stands there was no way to approve new members. And while it's fitting that the meme political ideology that always collapses on itself ping group was fundamentally broken and could not be repaired, it is not the best site mechanic.

THANK YOU @DiddyMoon OUR MOST KEYED OF JANNIES

Good morning.

You can now upload a background FOR YOUR PROFILE without having to peepee around with css witchery. Just press that cute little “upload profile background” button on your profile and there you go

This was actually originally going to be a profile upgrade you buy in the shop, but aevann pointed out that people customizing their stuff is desirable in the first place. So now you get the originally-going-to-be-like-20k badge for FREE. This was I think the first thing I ever animated well over a year ago so it’s even more uninteresting and ghetto. Sorry. That is the Windows XP background though. Clever.

PAYPIGS can upload their own backgrounds FOR THE SITE from the SETTINGS PAGE. This was poorly explained yesterday and I am sorry.

And, finally, I’d like to point out that /h/glory was deleted after four days of inactivity instead of a week.

So you all blew 50k for nothing. Stop donating to holes. Stop posting in holes. Holes are stupid and so are you.

BLOCK HOLES SO YOU DO NOT EVEN SEE THEM, DEPRIVE HOLEPOSTERS OF THE OXYGEN OF AMPLIFICATION.

No one else wanted to make the post. Permanent marisification is annoying and gay so it’s gone now. If you liked it then I’m sorry about your bad taste.

There. Easy post. No one has to argue about who to blame. It was a bad toggle and now it’s gone. I did it. Me. Frick your marisification.

People aren’t using cosmetic awards nearly as much as I’d like them to so now we’re doing this.

Cosmetic awards are things like fireflies, wholesome, stripper cake, glowie, etc.

Go forth and break threads.

1. u can now use the "reply" button as a quote button

2. added Donkey Kong emoji tab

3. added more chud phrases

4. when u receive a chud award, u will now see the phrase u have too say

5. /h/countryclub posts are now more distinguished

6. award price is now shown more prominently in the "give award" window

7. made the taglines a little bit shorter

8. bypassing the chud award is now almost impossible
