>I've heard much of Marxists doing this
Unless you mean "cultural marxists" – and even then I think that's hilarious – give it a rest.
Stop looking OUTSIDE for the problem. There are more than enough problematic Christians whose culture or personal beliefs are antithetical to chan culture and get easily triggered by the hard rough-n-tumble jocularity we inflict on each other. We don't need no stinking marxists to cause trouble. We're more than capable of doing it to ourselves.
I will offer up just one word for proofs: cuckvol.
I have no trouble believing the man (let's just assume) was a devout Cathbro, but he certainly did NOT belong on a chan much less hotpocketing one. He was a nightmare.
Now, do I believe we are sometimes cruel to each other on this board – no doubt. But, I tend to think that we are more likely to change by the example we're set than by the awesome power of the easily-evaded banhammer. Or with ten minute bans – that aren't worth evading – warning us that we're being uncharitable, or hour-long-you're-sent-to-timeout than just hurling us out for a week or four because we were uncivil to someone we're arguing with. I think we sometimes forget that the highest standard we as Christ's OWN are called to is to LOVE our enemies and be kind to those who inflict egregious intellectual butthurts on us.
By all means, ban the porn that routinely pops in. Ban the interloper with nothing interesting to add other than bile. But, let the board riff on itself. I will eagerly contend that through this board, and through the few occasions when a Orthbro or Cathbro has shown me consideration, charity – dare I say it – LOVE that my respect for the PEOPLE behind the differences that seem to divide us has grown exponentially through this board.
So, I find it to be a shame that moderation could drive some away, or frustrate the many who have clearly abandoned this board. (What's our pph now? Even half what it was?)
I'm sure moderation here is a tough job, requiring enormous commitment. Those guys that gave birth to http://www.christchan.is/ (an attempt to de-8ch-ify /christian/ ) proved that to me. Their BO lasted barely four months before the first of them handed over to one of the mods, and so on it went. That was the last time I felt really like this place had a solid chance. Alas.
Anyway. Stop blaming outsiders and Jews for our own problems. Christians have been near-perfect at eating our own for centuries. The devil may make us do it, but it's still our mouths doing the work.
