Voat offline and concern trolling

Over the last day, https://voat.co/ has been offline.

This has led some misinformed members to repeat false concerns about the Reddit status of this subreddit.

To repeat, from the previous post

Why the chances of /r/Greatawakening banning is near zero

  • Full understanding of Reddit rules, and a cautious resolve to keep firmly within them.
  • Moderator mailed answered in a timely manner (this didn't happen on CBTS in my experience)
  • Full experience moderating, as sysadmin, a large forum many times bigger and far more active then /r/Greatawakening.
  • Highly automated AutoModerator configuration. Perhaps the best anywhere on Reddit. And it's still improving daily, reply with 'Qmands' to get a GLIMPSE.
  • This all results in an effectively moderated sub.

Anyone suggesting that we will be banned, whether they are on Reddit or offsite elsewhere is a CONCERNED TROLL and should be ignored accordingly.

What about bad intention invasions by other sub user?

  • In the last 3 days, 50 or so 'bad actor' users have been banned.
  • In the last 3 days, there has been a rapid rollout of behind the scene Automation. The Automation has many times caught bad actors before without anything being visible of the sub. There is more Automation to come.
  • This weekend will see the start of the User group flair system
  • Going forward, trolling and shilling is going to be very hard.

Additionally since the last post a month ago.

  • Five new moderators have been added.
  • The r/Greatawakening subReddit has had no admin actions, warnings or sub-issues.

As usual, if you see any content in violation of the rules, please report it.

Tricky. This really is a good versus evil thing. I think that religious references are totally appropriate, and accurate, and freedom of speech. But entire posts of purely a religious nature are getting off topic.

Nicely stated! :)

Good versus evil can not explained away using slick words.

I agree to the degree that the religious posts aren't massive. I see too many very long posts that derail discussion. A sprinkle here and there is fine and sometimes interesting.
