On the Deuxrama Question :marseydeux:

I am a lurker who's been watching from the sidelines for several months now, but between the Day of the Login Screen, and the Deuxrama issue, I can remain silent no longer, so I am going to use my first post to speak out on this issue.

:chudsey::marseypearlclutch::marseylongpost:

Deuxrama as a separate site is not only a stupid idea, but may in the process ruin rDrama forever. This recent :chudsey: purge has been, to my knowledge, orchestrated to drive people to Deuxrama, and in doing so merely turn rDrama and Deuxrama into two separate bastions of wingcuckery, that will just eternally sneed at each other. Excess CHUDness might get rDrama removed, but I presume :marseydeux: has the same host, and will likely get both sites removed if it gets taken down, so it's pragmatically useless. It also gets unfunny when in excess, and so and the goal is NOT unrestricted :chudsey: or :marseyfreezepeach:, but instead to avoid a division into two wingcuck communities that eternally sneed at each other, and the concept of a separate rDrama-related :chudsey: site. If you want to be a wingcuck, SRD and Kiwifarms exist for that. I can't just sit and watch as this site runs itself into the ground. We must not become /pol/, but we must be careful not to lean into :marseybardfinn: too much. Wingcuckery is a two-sided peril, after all, and Deuxrama was a r-slurred idea from the start.

I propose a balance system for a hypothetical Chud Award/Leftoid Award ratio, wherein say 10:1 - 10 dramanauts chudded for every dramanaut leftoid-awarded, and an excess in one direction will make the opposite award cheaper, subject to rebalancing by Carp and the other admins, e.g. if we get an influx from twitter, this ratio could be flipped on its head, while if this site gets mentioned on /pol/, it could be made 20:1, to maintain a proper wingcuck balance ratio. This could be a better solution to rDrama's political balance problems than creating a chud exile site that brings all the cons of being a chud site to rDrama (deplatforming, chuds finding it a :marseyfreezepeach: place from other chud sites) while also turning rDrama and itself into bastions of wingcuckery. Drama comes from difference, after all. What use to the world is another /pol/, or another SRD?

I also have noticed a sore lack of :chudsey: longposts, and I'm planning on making a few long-winded posts of that style as well - starting with a dissection of the question "What is a Woman?", and why it makes those who believe TRANS LIVES MATTER sneed so much. Plenty of :chudsey:s like to take small potshots in the comments, but I notice few tend to elaborate. I will try to fix that, or shout TRANS LIVES MATTER trying.

And now, finishing this first post, I ask myself the question all lurkers becoming posters must ask ourselves - am I still the lol-milker, or have I become the :marseylolcow:?

Good effortpost, welcome to dramanet

I just woke up and have not consumed my lisdextroamfetamine yet so not really in the mood for longposting and sneks already said a lot of what I wanted to say

But I share your concerns about deux splitting the userbase, especially when it's existence is used as justification to exile long term dramausers who provide valuable content

It clearly is not viable as a separate site and will fail for the same reason cringetopia failed

Internet addiction and its consequences has already rotted my brain and destroyed my attention span

I don't want to open up different sites with different sets of notifications, etc just to see different types of content

One of the Cringetopians said something about how no one wanted to use the offsite because all the other communities they were involved in were still on Reddit and they didn't feel like migrating to a different platform

For the same reason I think most of the concern about the Reddification and shitlib gentrification of drama is overblown. Trans lives matter girlbosses have no reason to use this site over Reddit.

And we want to attract stupidpollers like idio

This carppost on why Ruqqus failed is relevant:

Tldr I don't think the leftoid award is necessary right now but I share your concerns about deux.

Good effortpost, welcome to dramanet

Thank you!

Internet addiction and its consequences has already rotted my brain and destroyed my attention span

Judging by TikTok, most zoomers will make internet-addict millenials like you look like paragons of patience.

Tldr I don't think the leftoid award is necessary right now but I share your concerns about deux.

I was just trying to figure out a market solution that the admins could use to maintain balance with minimal work on their behalf, the leftoid award is needed at the other end of the scale, but under normal circumstances should be MUCH more expensive.

millennials like you

I was joking about you being a sneks alt and this makes me even more suspicious (by traditional definitions I'm an older zoomer but sneks has his own classification where he counts anyone who grew up before social media and smartphones as a millennial)

I guessed wrong, then? DW i'm not an alt, just a :marseyschizoshaking: TORcel. I've been lurking for months at this point.

not a sneks alt

I meant that as a compliment, (sneks is @TwoLargeSnakesMating ( one of our least mentally defective users and 2nd best codecel ) :marseyschizosnakeslove:)

It's nice to remember our generations were just a point on the slope as it approached negative infinity

Also agreed the ๐ŸŸ๏ธ-post on why Ruqqus failed is a great write-up on the freeze-peach problem from someone at the center of it all. Archive link if you want to read it in its original environment.

I've been saying for a while that we already have leftoid awards. Birdsite for one. But the chud award works on leftoids too. First because it's annoying to constantly have to type trans lives matter, regardless of your politics. And second because it makes everybody think that the leftoid is actually a chud posting rightoid and that's funny.
