/comms/ - COMMS

INTRO TO BAKING

Qresearch is a 24/7 beehive of activity where anons post their diggs, memes and prayers.

For this to happen requires bakers–which is why they have been called "the core of this board."

Bakers perform several key functions:

* Set the tone for each bread via their choice of bread title and /comms/ with posters.

* Post notables for each bread.

* Bake breads (transition the board from one thread to the next).

* Knead the dough (keeping the resource pages clean, tidy, and up-to-date).

When all goes well, baking is a fun & exciting opportunity to serve. When things get wonky and shills attack–bakers carry on anyway.

Shadilay, fellow bakers!

Baking FAQs

Version 1.5

For step-by-step baking instructions, see page one of current baking seminar dough; baking section of /qresearch/ dough will also have a link. Link to Class #15: 14290

TWO MOST IMPORTANT FAQs:

1. There is no baking mistake that can't be fixed. 2. Never panic, never tap.

Generally

What hardware/software is needed in order to bake?

Laptop or desktop (phonefagging hard for newbies & tablets lack power). The bigger the screen, the better. Text editor like Notepad++ (for PCs) or Atom (for Macs).

What other skills are good for a baker?

Patience, persistence, high tolerance for criticism, ability to say no to shills. Good enough typing to more or less keep up the pace.

What shift is good for a new baker?

A slow shift like late night to early morning (also, Q seldom posts then). If you take a faster shift, just tell anons you're new and you'll get support.

Bakers Tools

This is an independent tool that anyone can use, but you don't need it to bake.

Baking in TOR

TOR doesn't allow images but does allow embedded YT vids; use for General (Iwo Jima) image. There's usually a TOR vid in "Baking" section of the /qresearch/ dough.

Don't change previous baker's notables

Possible exceptions: bad links, spelling errors, when they give specific permission.

Baking everyday vs every so often

Whether you can bake a little or a lot, help is always welcome in the kitchen.

How to reduce baking stress

Practice first, develop routines, be prepared, stay calm, don't fixate on mistakes.

The Dough

The dough = first 4-5 posts/pages in each bread. Each post in one document separated by /////BREAK\\\\\\ markers.

Organization

post 1 - Q posts, post 2 - Notables, post 3 - War Room, post 4 - QPosts Archives. Notables page can be broken into two pages on the fly if notable buns are long (even tho there's no BREAK marker).

Dough problems & change requests

New bakers sometimes inherit a funny-looking dough or are asked by anons to make dough changes. If you're not sure what to do, say so and defer to next baker. Often, bakers in the thread will jump in to help.

Practice Baking

You can practice bake in /comms/, established in 2018 by BO Rusty. After getting down the basic steps, try shadow baking (following a real bake to get the timing down).

Green text

In /comms/ practice bakes using Q Research doughs, links don't work and text is green.

Q&A & getting feedback

Practice bakers can ask q's by posting in the baking seminar thread or baker's Meta thread in /comms/.

Pastebin.com

What is pastebin.com?

An app/site that stores the dough so bakers can transfer it to next baker.

Do I need an account to use pastebin.com?

No, anyone can use it as a GUEST. You can also (optionally) add a pastebin name to identify your acct to anons.

How to make a new pastebin

Copy entire dough from text editor, upload to pastebin.com, select New Paste, paste in dough, select Create New Paste at bottom. See step-by-step instructions for more.

Notables

How to tell what is notable?

A few ideas: look for anon noms, Q decodes, POTUS tweets/retweets, planefag/boatfag reports, relevant news items (for breaking news, check qresear.ch to avoid dups).

Usually, memes are not notabled. Unsauced tweets & articles must be sauced first (quality matters).

How to format notables list?

Formats vary, but best to use bold orred text. Examples: 'Early notables', 'Notables @200', 'Notables #11956 @300'. Always link to dough post if ghosting after posting.

How often do you post notables?

Often enough to give anons multiple chances to have their say about notable selection, some ideas:

* 200, 400, 600 (plus a FINAL) or * 250, 500, Last Call around 640 (plus a FINAL).

If you take the bake late: Post notes as soon as you catch up or by @600 at the latest (so anons know you're still there).

Max number of breads in Previously Collected Notables?

4 - 5 lines. To make room, just delete the bottom line(s).

Timing Issues

What do I do after accepting the handoff?

Most bakers start by finding/copying pastebin (check Dough post first); prepping Create a Thread; and doing a quick dough check to make sure everything is ok. Then start collecting notables. Later, bakers will need to check bread title (update?), check notables page (more room needed?), and transfer notables from text editor to dough.

When to post a final notables list?

Depends on bread speed but usually around 680 - 710.

How to keep up with notables during fast breads?

Depends how fast. When Q posts, priority is on grabbing Q drops, not notes. During fast non-Q breads, focus on skimming off the 'cream' and leaving the rest. Always try to include noms but only if they're high quality (from anons not shills). Practice makes perfect.

How long does a New Thread take to show up after I select Create a Thread?

30 - 60 seconds unless there's a severe lag. If lag is bad, let anons know and ask them to wait for new thread.

Handoffs & Baker Comms

Good /comms/ are critical for well-baked breads, so need to be clear & easy to find.

Showing baker or note-taker changes

Easy to forget but useful to showing who's responsible for which notables. Insert "baker change" or "note-taker" at the point when the change occurs when recording notables.

Handoffs: call-and-response protocol

Baker announces he seeks handoff; available baker(s) announce they can bake; baker usually takes the first in line.

Example: B1:baker seeks handoff', B2:can bake, B1:handoff confirmed?, B2:confirmed, bread is mine

When shill activity is high, baker may be asked to produce a recent pastebin or other proof that he's legit.

Ghost bake protocols - ALWAYS TAG THE DOUGH POST!

When baker can't get a replacement, he may have to ghost the bread (leave it bakerless).

Example: B1:baker seeks handoff; will ghost @100, [no response], B1:baker leaving the kitchenghost bake

When another baker picks up the ghost:baker assuming responsibility.

Don't forget to TAG THE DOUGH POST so bakers arriving after @600 will know there's a baker (avoids dup bakes).

When there is more than one baker per bread

Two things to note:

1. Ordering of notables (can be more or less "top to bottom" or "bottom to top"): Either use the same order as first baker or change his to match yours; try not to mix them.

2. Use "baker change" to separate your work from first baker's. Don't treat first baker's notables like suggestions, respect them as if they are PB notables.

Making Reports and Global Reports

To report to BO/BVs, find little triangle on upper left of each post, select it, then use menu.

Use Report to ask BO to make bread changes that bakers can't make, e.g. changing a wrong bread number. You may need to do it more than once (or twice).

Use Global Reports for child porn (CP) or other illegal material. Someone is on-duty 24 hours.

Duplicate bakes

Use Report to ask for moldy bread to be locked and provide a link to 'good' bread.

Baking

See step-by-step instructions on page 1 of class dough. E-BAKE steps are there too.

To bake each page….

Divide bread into 4 posts by looking for /////BREAK\\\\\ markers. (For two-page notables, do it on-the-fly for page 2).

How to bake when the Catalog is down?

Use the Index (8kun.top/qresearch/index.html). You can Create a Thread there. Afterwards, locate your new thread this way: go past the pinned threads and the old thread; the new one is usually right after it. To "enter" that thread, click on the OP post number. (Allow at least 30 secs for new thread to appear.)

Baking Error Messages

Body too long

Happens when there are too many characters per post (maybe 5000) or too many lines (maybe 200). This seems to vary but gives you an idea).

Flood detected

Happens if you already posted same exact text (most common–if so, add a space somewhere). Can also happen during DDOS or when too many anons post at once.

Server took too long

Usual server response for /qresearch/ bakes (95% of bakes). Solution: WAIT AT LEAST 30-60 secs, then check the Catalog (should post despite the message).

Can be confusing for first-time bakers because this lag doesn't happen in /comms/.

SEE ALSO Crazy bakes >>9960

Common Mistakes

Don't be afraid to make mistakes - all bakers make 'em (get used to it newbies!). Easy-to-make mistakes:

* Incomplete copypasta (not grabbing ALL the dough when baking for each post, so that top or bottom isn't there)

* Screwing up content or formatting for bread title (use Report to have BO/BVs correct).

* Not tagging the dough post in comms like handoffs, picking up a ghost bake or posting notes in a ghost bake

* Forgetting to use BOLD andred textfor handoffs, Notables posts, and other important comms

* Confusing "Create a Thread" in the Catalog with "Post a Reply" within a bread. (Avoid this by putting Create a Thread tab far away from tab with current bread.)

* Accidentally pressing Create a Thread before end of bread

(Solution: report premature thread to BO/BVs, post a link back to real bread, post an alert & apology to anons, then forget it & return to bake).

* Dough errors (Solution: generate new dough & post pastebin link in the bread. First-time bakers: just leave a message for next baker on the problem.)

Q Bakes & Other Fast Breads

Generally: When Q posts, drop everything and get to bottom of bread to pick up Q drops and put them in the dough. Pick up notes from there if you can. Bake EARLY - @630 is not uncommon.

Formatting Q drops & LINES

Check existing Q drops to see formatting; copy-pasta the LINES, don't try to do them yourself.

Cap for baker

Anons will usually post them for you. Search with F3 on the link or 'cap for baker'.

POTUS rally breads

These can be pretty speedy; bake early so anons have a place to post rally comments.

Dealing with Shills

Shills want a bread full of squabbling anons so that anons withdraw and good digs are overlooked. Just the presence of a baker deters them.

SEE ALSO "How To Quickly Spot A Clown" (last line of page 1 in /qr/ dough).

Telling anons from shills

Baker: "you can tell when a reasonable accommodation does not mollify." Posters who kvetch no matter what are shills, not anons.

Responding to shill tactics

Shills always test bakers, pressuring them on notables, dough changes, etc. If being reasonable does not work (see above), make a decision and stand firm with it.

Common shill tactics for screwing with bakers

Purposely leaving out dates on moldy notables; nomming a list of notables at end of bred; nomming hard-to-evaluate Q decodes w/no main point or title; including no sauce or crap sauce; burying bad stuff in the middle of a post (muh joos, etc), moaning about pb notables/asking for changes.

Anons do some of these things too but shills are more obvious about it.

Ways to respond when you're sure it's a shill:

* Generic shilling/spam: Generally ignore.

* When shills demand something: Respond calmly, with humor and facts, try funny memes to diffuse an attack (Left still can't meme).

Memes also tend to end the conversation. See Baker Tips for examples of how to outlaugh a shill.

* For a personal attack targeting you: If it's major, don't take that shit, fight back, it's war. Make the shill POS sorry he ever took you on with a powerful and meticulously documented, fact-based counterattack. Screencap the evidence. Remember, revenge is a dish best served cold.

Got any baking questions? answers?

Good baking jokes?

Here's something of interest:

Notice how many pages it took to post last two parts of the dough? Didn't take that many last week, check it out here:

>>15362

got to run to the store quickly

brb

Last night was pretty crazy, think all the bakers who'd been doing overtime since RioGate his a wall, i baked two regulars and one e-bake. After that (during my 3 hr nap) another e-bake, i think anons got it cleaned up just before wnb arrived, so there was no "messy kitchen."

>>15367

that should be "RiotGate"

>>15369

yeah, i'm not too speedy either

espec right now, had to switch browsers, still getting set up

everything has to be good

to do a fast bake

i come to do relief sometimes

that's tough

start out behind and play catch up the whole bread

not for new bakers

btw, Q is posting

Q drops…..

>>15365

Tanks

Breadneck has been a subject on my mind as we get faster and faster . having a keyboard without a 10-key on it a mini keyboard per say as well as a vertical mouse (cheapest one is good enough for me) on one side and a normal mouse on the other helps me(switch hands. Good posture and setting the screen up on a rubbermaid tub like plastic has helped with the neck issues . Learning as i go how to hang better and get moar hours to help.

Just have to straight up ignore the attackers thats the hardest part but i am almost there. i love to fight and it's so easy for me to defend this or that etc. I have to remember to fade that shit and let them shreek. So easy to get lost in a fight with a ghost. That's all I have to say and thank you for the opportunity to help with this tremendous endeavor. Honor of a lifetime type chance and I will not miss the train if i can help it. Best luck to all new bakers reach ultimate form learn and bake for the war.

Just returned from looking at two Q posts.

Shills give us hell when we have class if there's no baker at /qr/ or Q is posting.

But that's why we have this class.

BC wo/a kitchen, we'd have no board.

INFRASTRUCTURE IS EVERYTHING.

It's what holds up the building.

>>15389

Yeah he is. It’s all going down.

>>15395

Don't know what Teach has in mind with baker memes, but seems to me like - in addition to being fun - they set the tone for the bread. Just like titles, have a real effect on the 'mood' of the board. One reason anons hate shill breads so much, coz the titles are really bad.

Welcome To Baking Class

Thank you for coming everybody, and if you're a new baker, for stepping up to help the kitchen. Respect.

The class is informal and relaxed. Feel free to ask questions, shout out if or when you're stuck / need some help and remember, there are no dumb questions, ever. There's usually plenty of flour flying around so feel free to mess up. It's how we learn.

One of our bakers usually instructs (m'self today), while GYB facilitates the Q&A and discussions. Regular bakers are also usually in-thread (dropping in when they can), helping to answer the Q&As.

So….. feel free to ask any questions about anything regarding baking, even if you're not learing to bake today.

We are all here dedicating our time to teach you and pass on our knowledge to you, new bakers. We want to help you in whichever way we can. Please give us feedback and let us know how we can.

Once you decide you're ready to bake, we will all continue to help you, so don't feel you'll be out on your own in the wild west.

Thank you bakers, thank you BO.

Here's what we'll be doing this evening…

>>15440

that's ok, bakers are shitposting-deficient, need to bs a little.

>>15426

Thanks doc, you seem to deserve all of the bottle tonight. Will gracefully pass..

>>15428

who did you hand off to?

remember?

>>15446

This ^^

>>15436

Cateful*

>>15445

please do, the more practice the easier it becomes

>>15426

Think we can all use a belt tonight

>>15445

>moar beer

let us know whether that makes baking easier!

>4am

wasn't around by then

wish i could pull an all-nighter but no

had to leave

it all comes right in the end, tho

>>15436

Good lord!

Careful*

Ha

>>15450

tonight? numbers baker

he threw a pastebin first thing

after apologizing for forgetting to take the handoff

keks

>>15436

been that way the entire day.

>gerbils complaining the whole time as well

>>15455

yeah, i got a lotta bunker memes

like that one, cozy and snacky too

made em when 8kun was down

pining for home

>>15460

I started at 0530 edt. Gerbs were already on board.

>>15462

yea man they really fuck with you and my bakes too for sure i notice the patterns. Shit blows up when your baking whole fukin board goes down sometimes on our shifts . Crazy days mayne ! We fukin em up team keep it up

>>15459

ty

sometimes I fail to pay attention re:who is who- I know the old ones and memes but when just dough I sort of gloss over

did notes while they chased drops.

>>15462

so sick of that bullshit ego sperg-a-thon they produce. all tey do is complain

a few breds ago I did notes and one of them had 13 posts of nothing but bitching-entitled SOB's

>>15442

well i screwed up just last night

second fast bake was a little much

anon caught it later

hate it when i miss something

but it's so easy when your tired

with me, it's about looking at the screen

too long

then don't always check things out

as closely as i would like

one of the hardest things about baking

is shills jumping on yer mistakes

when you've bent over backwards

and avoided about a dozen of them

only to screw up of #13, kek

>>15456

>>>let us know whether that makes baking easier!

I was hoping the above was green. Not sure

I cant answer yet because all of prectice bakes have been with a few beers in me!

For the keks!

in some ways, gerbil's like a comic relief

yes, he's annoying and even causes havoc

but not malicious

>>15472

it wuz all pf stuff

I just go to work when I come in so that's me around 6am pst with the pf drops

>>15471

Dunno bro. Just a weird cat fo sho

>>15474

Yup. Kek… thought you were left coast. Caper solved

>>15470

I really need to do it moar, even though sometimes get double-digits most are content

>>15473

imagine being that ones spouse.

>>15467

someday you'll have to do the 'control group' part to compare.

>>15403

Good to see you baker, thanks for coming.

Thanks eveybody.

>>15410

Noice. Thanks doc.

Cheers

>>15476

I found out about you being the boss last week and now that-evens out.

I'll go back to lurk mode for a bit now as youz guise don't need much from me with this

>>15482

Meant for >>15477

>>15471

He wanted his board to be the center, said so said outright 'go to qresearch but bring it all back here.' not to be subversive, just thinks his meme warfare work is more important than anything else.

But there's something to learn from him. And it's relevant to what this class is about: styling your breads. Gerbil is into a lotta structure, which he provides, and a defined goal. Attracts anons who like to act but will allow someone else to define the goals. So his group is pretty bonded in a family-like way. He's like the dad with a large family who do these twitter raids (exciting).

>>15478

shitposting or shillhunting (or both)?

>>15461

Bunker memes were dank. How about you di the venue next week? kek

>>15481

lurq if you want but your ideas are welcome

>>15487

do the venue?

>>15481

Boss? Nah man. That’s cakes.

>>15481

gb has great insight from sitting on the other side

appreciate that

>>15469

OK New Bakers Listen Up

We're lateish in starting tonight, apologies.

Here's what we'll be doing in this class and video and slide series -

MODULE 1 - BAKING

In this module we'll be showing you step-by-step how to make a thread -

Step 1. Getting the most recent version of the dough

Step 2. Copying and pasting it into your text editor

Step 3. Making a new thread and posting it

Step 4. Making a new pastebin and posting it

Step 5. Telling anons where the Fresh Bread is

By the end of Module 1 you will -

1. Have all the knowledge you need to make a thread

2. Have made your own thread/s in /comms/, the baking practice kitchen

MODULE 2 - NOTABLES, TIMING, TIPS & TRICKS

Module 2 will cover Notables, timing, tips & tricks.

We'll do this module next Thursday.

Once you've completed the 2 modules you'll have all the information you need to be able to baker.

After that, when you feel you've had enough self practice and feel yourself you are ready, you can hit the big stream QR Kitchen.

Ok, let's go. Ready?

announcement

Coming up on 6000 bredz since muh very first bake. Even cap’d it for posterity.

>>15490

And who the hell did "cakes" learn from?

was gonna ask eventually but, was it you I bugged in the mornings when I first started last June? It was you I watched.

>>15488

>>15490

>>15491

thank you bruthas-got some dinner action going

>>15489

Yea the venue for the baking class… set the scene. Like I post venue pics, drinks n snacks. Yours look much better. kek

>>15496

Sorry to hear that. Aim higher. Lol

>>15494

damn, who da boss, sheitz

>>15486

shill hunting is only enjoyable is i maintain a certain distance. I like it best when they are after baker and i am anon. do it only when there's a specific purpose - like they are really zeroing in on baker and drilling down (often on some little mistake), trying to make anon think "shill baker."

Why i do it:

to break up the attack

repeating things that are slightly plausible over and over

can make anons begin to wonder

Big Lie technique works fine even here

>>15496

You know you’ll always be ‘cakes’ to me right? Don’t think I’ve ever called u doc.

>>15502

Great tips thank you .

Teach… sorry for all the shitpost’n. Itz been a heck of a week.

>>15490

easygoing

unless ya get mad, yeah?

wouldn't wanna be yer enemy

in a firefight

>>15494

Congrats Baker, awesome !

That's a whole lotta bakin'.

Mad respect.

o7

>>15503

I'm guud wit dat

I don't think you have either

I'm guud wit dat too

keks

in fact, if you called me doc I'd be like who the fuck are you

>>15486

just adding

the main thing with that is,as you say-they will bark no matter what

Let them know you don't take shit.

After I did that have zero problems.

They best confirmation is when the buns get no response-you know you are doing it right.

this for all-when are we going to get an rgb sighting?

>>15506

only thing that gets me thru is posting grim reaper memes late at night

man, those gy anons have a lot of them!

>>15436

all the bakers today did excellent work. shit was dropping

>>15484

He’s full retard with the meme warfare. If you note it he’s cool. Sometimes I don’t just to get him all wound up. Thatz my baker darkside

>>15511

those are great danks for real

miss night shift

IRL calls

>>15502

I do this often as well.

usually get the first post on 'em, as well as the shills.

>latency (lack of)

Yes you do. Yer like a pit bull. Kek. Stop playing with you food!

>>15486

>>15512

noice to have a positive vibe for bakers

not sure what to do as it doesn't happen often

ty KB

>>15466

It's interesting how we focus on the one or two things done wrong… When in reality we do 1700 amazing things. I prefere to look at your great body of work, instead. Good for you.

>>15518

Will do Sir. Def learning alot from you're example you say ALOT in one or two posts . You Nuke them fast and they blow out of the room, almost everytime. All you bakers are fukin legends to me this is ] that time [

That’s the wnb imposter czech !

>>15509

>>15520

Super cool info thanks

>>15515

Legit laughing a lot right now

>full retard with the meme warfare

>>15511

Kek… I see about a gorillion of them every morning. Those and 1940’s dancing dead shit.

>>15524

someone came on and asked about my q's

I asked for a check and as soon as I posted I realized it wasn't you

didn't think imposter, just wrong

>>15521

>focusing on one or two things done wrong

Yes, we all do.

Shills make it a lot worse by implying it was on purpose

One reason i'm glad i baked on 3 other boards (/qrb/ and the two endchan): because they were pretty shill-free. And guess what? Turns out most anons don't care that much about mistakes, bakers union, and name-fagging (some do but not that many). They're mostly easy going. And in those environments, it's easy to have a good back and forth between bakers and anon, nobody's trying to smash the kitchen.

Allows me to realize just how much of the jumping all over bakers here comes from shills.

>>15498

ok, i can come up with some "venue" pics, heh-heh. But remember - you asked, kek.

>>15522

From now on, we'll just tell the nastier shills that we got the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, so there!

>>15526

Speaking of legit laughing… anyone see the 2 cat shark meme’s the other day. I was on a client call and kek’d so loud, I had to apologize.

>>15529

that took me a minute to fully comprehend, at first we calmed it with the pics but once we did they pushed harder, now, fuck em, I'm not much of a post fighter but I'm workin on it

>>15533

kek

post it

>>15528

Kek. There’s no tell’n when that Q bake is moving at Mach 2. Itz all a blur and primal instincts at that point.

>>15528

It's interesting

i can't always tell shills wanting to bake for sure

but often, they have an odd way about them

you can't sense that they're not familiar

example: the guy who showed up in your bread doc talking about 'burning the toast' and how he wouldn't burn it. Then wanted to bake next bread - i asked if it was the same anon, and yes, it was. Let him bake but he was a jerk and walkout as well. So i took the ghost. The real shills kinda stand out. I don't ask for pastebins but will stick around if something doesn't smell right.

>>15536

Fuck’n K I l l I n g me again!!!! Holy shit that’s funny

>>15539

by the way, there was nothing wrong with the bread (yours). that's why i noticed his remark, it was…ha-ha…strange.

You grab the other one? I’d have to go to my laptop to get it.

>>15536

>>15536

Shill-slayin' meme, doc.

>>15539

most bakers are like, hey, got your six, or NB l n l, here to help, ready to bake, shills just put that red text down handoff confirmed and i'm like, no it's not, kek, numbers ran into it a couple of times

am crew does bin checks, afternoon crew has issues, night crew does bin checks, I think it's me they try

numbers was exasperated

I got the strange ha ha

>>15543

I didn't, this spoke to me, sorry

>>15544

yeah, will work on it

>>15551

needs a clown face

>>15542

How are you doing, class?

Let me know how it's going if you're following the teaching materials. Shout out if you've any questions and don't be stuck.

>>15546

Fresh Bread??

>>15548

Teach asked about style of baking….

mine is pretty interactive

in part bc i'm a digger

like to support digging & diggers efforts if possible

also find it intriguing to follow the line of thought in a dig

only possible at night tho

with days, even when including a lot

there's stuff left out

diggers know to post late for 'thought' pieces

today, some anon wanted attention for his diagram, which was complex

i suggested he title it

he did but it was complicated

cut it down to show him what might work

he didn't like it and said something about 'playing your games'

realized then he was prolly one of those shills that plants stuff like this trying to distract baker during busy breads

>>15548

They were targeting you pretty hard the past few days.

>>15555

Good to see you.

Yes, i know the settings, didn't think i ever saw one for max post length, unless it's hidden.

Yes, thought the posts were really long last week

good for the dough here

but it didn't last

>>15535

Teach, how much earlier can I post, without upsetting anons, to begin with?

>>15558

Great bake. You shouldn’t have to split page 4 tho

>>15555

555 I am full of useless excuses here are a few, I am super sorry about that i did not know what to do , been getting hounded for days on end by this crew and I didn't come over here to ask what to I just was exhausted by it and thought to tell them if there was a question about why things run then you might be the one to ask. Def didn't mean to do the wrong thing. I came here to check in with you all as I see this class go on week after week and I don't join in. I am usually a 1 man deal all in my head kind of thing. Get super confusing after alot of hours, sometimes I am not in the mood for the attacks. Whatever I need to do to talk with you wherever let me know I will go there.

>>15535

I mean, what is the earliest last bread post?

600?

>>15567

do u mean posting notables in the bread?

anywhere from about 150 - 300 for first post (unless you take the bread later), then at regular intervals. Even baker has his own rhythm.

>>15561

it is hard to tell

I found that if an anon couldn't explain their post in a simple sentence they didn't understand it…

and in general that indicates a newfag, a muffin or a cauliflower muffin = s h i l l , cauliflower = Circus In Action clown

if they get offended at needing to explain it…

if they get offended at needing to re-post it next bread…

those who understand what they post are most usually happy to explain in simple terms

happy to help with a tagline / hook that explains and causes interest in the post

>>15567

730 will get a few complainers but if you try to get @740 you won’t get any.

>>15561

that was a shill screaming it's had three notables and you missed it but that shill has a style, similar to a dark style like aei anon gifs so I know to ignore, glad you saw through it too, on everyday with a new one, bitched like crazy when Q said past proofs

>>15548

I know what you're saying doc. I wouldn't hand off like that either.

Wanted to say re 8bit's comments (saw some), that it was he who instated the bakers checks through bins or yous, and it worked well when kitchen shit was habbenin' at that time.

Then when things calmed down again it naturally relaxed.

I think 8bit rocks and have a whole lot of respect for him. Seemed strange that he spoke out about the process when we were doing again what he'd done successfully.

>>15570

>earliest last bread post

yes, if Q is posting could be around 600

if bread is very fast maybe around 630

>>15570

See>>15573

>>15573

>>15563

yeah, hoping to get me to stop with bin checks, like IGAF, even one came on like veli, a couple of times, laughed, veli has a style, it's not just a pic, I played along though, for the keks, then demanded a bin, pissed they were

>>15569

I set this place up for bakers to learn

I set up methods for baker ID

I don't believe it should be an absolute requirement for a handoff

How you bake is up to you

how you choose to hand off or not is up to you

dragging me into it was not good

appeal to authority…

I love your enthusiasm

you do a decent job baking

if you'd learn to listen to anons a bit more instead of automatically assuming them to be shills…

one major thing did get by you today

bread numbers are important to double check

>>15568

I was surprised with that as well

>>15579

I’m usually mixing it up with them to take the heat off the baker, but if I’m baking I just move past [their] posts. That’s when they start shouting bakers union!

>>15574

interesting. i didn't catch the dank tone til part way into the back and forth.

Happens with Teach also - starts out as a conversation and halfway in, the 'anon' starts getting strange.

There are some advantages in being realy reasonable when you're not sure:

1. good look for the kitchen

2. allows anons to watch the interaction gradually 'go south', so they can see how shills attack bakers

3. Drives shills crazy! The thing they can't stand is feet held to the fire with calm reasonableness and hard facts.

>>15570

let me add, if I may, put down your notables @600with a note "getting close" that is their 3 min warning, @ 650 you can note to post all new notables nb, still watch for DJT posts and PF updates, have to draw a line, depending on how fast you bake or how laggy the board is, it's your call, use it to make your bakes on time

>>15582

>if you'd learn to listen to anons a bit more instead of automatically assuming them to be shills…

>one major thing did get by you today

>bread numbers are important to double check

fuck, thank you

for 7 breads in a row

with multiple anons pointing it out

>>15576

He seemed like he was speaking out about it because of the wedge he knows it will introduce.

Same reason why I've declined pursuing the idea of being any kind of baker authority in meta..

>>15531

>venue

Awesome doc. Thanks. keks. Feel bad now asking you, you have enough to do. But if you want to sometime, anytime, we can dig a bunker themed class.

>>15587

>take heat off the baker

that's right. i'll do a little sparring when i bake but only really get into it when i'm anon. Diversionary tactic but also outs the shills (the ones who try to sound reasonable).

Be back in 10.

>>15597

That was me

>>15593

that's not doc, Teach, it's me.

Sure you want a venue from graveyard baker??

>>15582

Will do need a check in with you thanks alot for the advice will never mess up again like that. Swear to it.

>>15576

this is where I'm at a loss, I started baking when FJ took the board, not sure what 8bit did, they talked 8 bit and I was like, QRB next door, he's still there, they came back like, he just quit cause of fuckery with bakers and I was like, OK

>>15557

>>15557

Working my way through, downloading lossyless slides, tyvm. Glad you liked that variety.

>>15582

I meant to say I needed a check in with you it's been at least a year I have asked anything related to comms and baking here. Again I wont mess it up and I will work on those numbers. I get the ghost bake alot of the time I am still dizzy from sleeping (no excuses) il fix it Sir.

>>15599

Keks.. thanks gyb, miss so much when uploading the videos.

Doc, venue post meant for you.

Good evening, all.

Sorry for lateness.

>>15576

>>15601

Can shed some light on past practices/attitudes re: baker checking.

Please bear with me for a few minutes.

>>15581

I see the hugs a lot and laugh

I'm the one who bakes because punching people is not socially acceptable, kek, it's a t shirt meme I use

>>15589

it's also a dark tone to their graphics, the colors are not "pleasing"

I can't explain but I know it when I see it

>>15581

Sometimes i can track baker memes, but depends on the baker.

>>15582

bakers should decide for themselves, as always

stupid bread numbering thing - gosh

that's the only time i'm itching to have BV status

would be so much easier to just go in and change bad bred nos and lock dups. a lot of the reason we have baker checks isn't so much bc of a horror of shills baking but bc is takes so much work to do clean up - and we have to rely on board volunteers, who often come many hours later (can also require multiple posts to get it done).

>>15589

>The thing they can't stand is feet held to the fire with calm reasonableness and hard facts.

amen

>>15603

>il fix it Sir.

knock it off

all equals here

the only authority is truth

>>15604

Good, i would do but got other fish to fry.

>>15561

gyb, so good to hear your experience because it's another angle, we can be aware of in the future… when our instincts are pricked. Ty

>>15601

Ah, no, was fuckery with the BV group not the bakers. It was kept private from the board, they had an outside comms thing goin' on and it all happened there apparently.

8bit was a great BO imho, he kept an even keel for us through waters a thousand times rougher than now.

>>15606

I've gotten over thepunching in the face thing but I'm sure it will come back when all ths shit comes out and all the normies say "oh I knew that"

>>15610

use many others work but can usually get me with the deepdream ones

>>15604

venue, like what kinda venue you thinkin?

>>15605

2018, baker checking was more or less a post history spot check from BO/BV's, ensuring that the anon volunteering to step into the kitchen wasn't a fuckhead.

In some cases, namely for those consistent regulars, it came down to a quick IP hash check instead of a scour of post history.

There was more trust for Bakers then, largely a position held by both 8bit and FJ before 5th column interference pushed the paranoia needle beyond reason. That and provided a decent modicum of leverage over shills - not even a retard would ever hijack the bread with that kind of backup from board staff; you had to [knowingly] interfere.

Wasn't perfect by any means - it added a level of intimidation for new volunteers, it couldn't prevent IP hopping and masquerading, and anyone could "infiltrate" by being consistent for a while and then blowing their load, and board staff had to be online to make it work - but it was effective.

Attitudes re: any kind of cooperation and smooth operation were naturally heavily attacked by shills.

>>15613

Search also in the archives for "BO/BV please confirm" or similar language.

>>15621

don't need to, saw it live o7

>>15605

evenin DB

hit the scotch, good stuff, we all did

>>15611

WWG1WGA we ride . Ok

>>15617

Heh, that'd be fun to wear to a rally, once they fire up again.

Will make it happen if POTUS comes back through this neck of the woods.

Hope you're doing well, GYB.

>>15610

BTW, not to say that misnumbering is deliberate

seldom if ever as far as i can see

but when our usual mistakes are combined

with shill problems,

there's an overload that must be addressed -

bakers gotta sleep sometime

>>15619

Any kind you want

>>15619

Bunker style bc you said you'd loads of bunker memez

>>15605

Good evening DB, good to see you.

>>15631

gyb has bunker memes

not me

>>15602

Good to hear and YW anon, any feedback you've got is really welcome, it helps improve the class and materials.

>>15634

Damn. kek. ok

>>15625

yeah, well enough!

>t shirt

watch out, don't wanna get mobbed, kek.

Could happen. Lotta normies seemed to be tuning in here or on twitter. Gutfield talking about red-pilling and Fox news last night about investigators "following what they call breadcrumbs" to track down brick piles.

>>15622

Heh, fair point.

Made life easy back then.

Good times.

>>15623

Damn, could do for some scotch.

Got bourbon, though.

>>15632

Good to see you too.

Apologies for interrupting.

Saw board lore being discussed and wanted to contribute.

Also, toasting in epic bread lesson.

Cheers to #17.

>>15637

>"following what they call breadcrumbs"

No shit…

The normie flood is no lie, but nothing we haven't seen before.

Q's "gears of justice" post can attest to that.

>>15638

Any questions?

Or any we missed?

>>15633

Only got the meme, not the shirt.

But you can design your own.

I had a "QNN we are the news" t shirt

and it started looking ratty

Submitted a similar logo

T shirt arrives in a couple weeks.

>>15640

yeah. what have you learned in this experience?

>>15561

I am pretty interactive as well. I also try to be a ‘good manners’ baker b/c that’s how I like to be treated. Most anons are receptive. Some are not. Some don’t care. As gyb, I started out as a digger and still do to some extent if it fits my wheelhouse and level of interest. I do try to acknowledge all attempts at rational and lucid posts even if I don’t see them as terribly notable. Anons seem to like all of that. They haven’t mutinied on me yet kek.

>>15634

I'm sure you'd make a dank venue doc, it'd be the best. Nice n strange. kek. If you'd like to any time.

>>15601

you've missed out on some history

teach tells some of it

>>15615

In the dawn of time before the migration to 8chan a group of the bakers tried to subvert the board, they were exclusive and started the baker's union bs.

we migrated, 8bit ended up as board owner and had a crew of BVs

AFLB was a BV that was kicked out by 8bit about 2 yr ago

the baker's union bs came back along with other subversive actions by the BV crew

8bit finally learned how deep the rot was and was more or less tricked by FJ & crew to give up the board to FJ due to being overworked and gaslighted constantly

FJ tried to change the board

Q corrected FJ

the board is as you now see it

FJ in the background (it is assumed)

>>15644

>'good manners' baker

yes. you are the most polite baker on the /qr/ baking crew, imo :)

>>15643

Me, kb? Or is the Q for everybody? That'd be a brilliant question for a class theme. We could do it next week, and I'd have a chance to put a meaningful answer together. kek

Great question.

>>15645

I'll work on it then

from last night

>>9460960 Shannon bream FOX NEWS: Report on BRICK STASHES and Investigators following "Bread Crumbs"

>>15648

It's for you, the teacher :)

The best teachers learn from their students, too.

>>15646

Thanks Rusty.

Can confirm.

>>15615

>>15646

>they had an outside comms thing goin' on and it all happened there apparently.

Confirmed.

>8bit was more or less tricked by FJ & crew to give up the board to FJ due to being overworked and gaslighted constantly and finally learned how deep the rot was

Respectfully, this is the correct order.

All else also correct.

>>15646

I do remember beanz and leaf causing trouble, or so it was said, I just watched, not much interest, I wanted to bake because they needed bakers and I enjoyed the board, believe in free speech and what is being done, local pols has never been an interest to me

>>15646

>>15656

had to clean and clear.

this is SPOT on rusty

>>15654

yes, it was after 8bit gave FJ the keys that the true nature of the situation became clear

>>15601

Wasn't coz of fuckery with bakers, kek.

i'm the main baker there.

he didn't like the board much, thought we were 'escaping' from main board or something - that only came out in a discussion during a class thread here.

But really, we got kicked out. All of us.

Anyway, he just said he didn't want the board anymore and gave the keys to someone else, it's all discussed on the board.

Nice open board for quiet-type autists.

>>15647

second

notable AF

>>15659

kicked out in july, that is.

>>15646

This lines up with this baker's remembrance of events.

This is why board moderation at /qr/ is essentially neutered down to only getting rid of cp and egregious shit.

>>15659

it was shills shillin at me so I wasn't really taking what they were saying for truth, just repeating what they said, then not giving them the handoff

>>15658

The week leading up to 8bit's withdrawal was a clusterfuck and a half.

The rest happened after 8bit shut down a common outside comms avenue.

The worst part is that the BV team, being completely driven by paranoia and powertripping, took full advantage of any and all goodwill 8bit had towards the other board contributors.

Alinksy himself couldn't have conducted a better assault on board leadership.

>>15649

Great. Can't wait.

>>15651

Well, I learn every week in class, tips n tricks and how others do things, I'm as much a student as the students. While baking I also learn constantly, improving on both hard and soft skills. There's always more to learn and I absolutely love to. This hive is incredible and we can all learn from each other.

>>15659

main baker in /qrb/

it has a new owner from the posts I've seen

and it is a very nice quiet spot for serious conversations and diggings

>>15601

ah… 8bit was BO of both /qresearch/ and /qrb/

gave /qresearch/ to FastJack and now has also handed off /qrb/ hopefully to a patriotic anon
