Let's take back our board /pol/. There were some good threads about this last night.
The dead give away is to check OP's ID. If there is only 1 post, it is a shill/slide thread.
Other signs are 1-3 sentence OP's with shit like:
>/pol/ BTFO
Pushing a retarded agenda
Repeat threads
General lack of substance.
I came here today with the intention of doing this, and was very happy to find other /pol/lacks doing the same thing. Let's keep it up boys! The war is winnable!
And don't forget, the most important thing you can do to combat this shit is to make good threads with well though out OP's, with sources where applicable. And reply to other good threads. Don't get discouraged.
>>77285217
bump
>>77285217
/pol/ is not a safe space. The shills are good for /pol/'s political debate. Without shills /pol/ becomes a circlejerk.
>>77285217
>>77285372
Yeah, because,"How can whites even compete?" Is good for discussion.
No one is saying anything about threads promoting an unpopular opinion, that is fine. As long as it is well thought out, sourced where necessary, and contains an actual OP who responds. Shill threads are good for no one and are just there to slide real threads.
>>77285372
>shill detected
>>77285217
Most are spam, I usually report them when it's just below 100 replies and 1 post OP
REPORT SPAM THREADS, MAKE SURE THE KIKE MODS DO THEIR JOB
Let's try to keep this on page one. Anyone who has pics of obvious shilling would be appreciated to post them here. Any infographics about how to spot a shill would be great too. I don't have any saved, I don't think. I will check, though.
>>77285604
Go away you tumblr 2.0 promoter. Does other peoples opinion hurt your feelings? Awwwwwww
You know Trump is going to lose, right?
>>77285217
But /pol/ BTFO is literally our board culture m8
>>77285372
>Dump poorly worded post on the front page
>Abandon thread
>This is supposedly good for discussion
It's very obvious to find these threads, just don't bump them. Fuck it's been so long does sage even work still?
>>77285758
>REPORT SPAM THREADS, MAKE SURE THE KIKE MODS DO THEIR JOB
Except this doesn't work.
I made a bot few weeks ago which recognized these threads and automatically posted a warning not to reply.
It only made people reply more and the fucking mods were banning my proxies while leaving the threads up.
its getting a little out of hand, theres so many of them but they are also so easy to spot, like >>77285971 posting the same image and the same comment in every thread, obvious bot
>>77286010
>on /pol/
>get butthurt by shitposters
I shiggy diggy
Yeah, this is all I have and it isn't /pol/, so...
>>77286143
Lol he thinks I am a bot!!!
Drumpf BTFO
>>77286328
how does that prove youre not using a bot? really pathetic
>>77285902
You obviously have no reading comprehension. I have stated no agenda on my part. You don't know what my beliefs are.
>>77285972
Board culture is fine, and "/pol/ BTFO" is usually used sarcastically. I'm talking about when it is the 50th thread of the same thing and OP doesn't reply.
>>77285971
What makes you think I am a Trump supporter?
>>77286331
How, pray tell, is this bait?
>>77285372
>"1 post by id" shills
>debate
They just want to trigger us with shitty thread flooding the board. Fuck them.
>>77286543
Are you retarded?
Also, I made a thread yesterday about the woman giving the anti-assault weapon speech in the interview about her son, and it got auto-saged, while obvious shill threads stayed on page 1.
>>77286573
M8 its just people trying to trigger /pol/. Its not fucking hard to do anymore.
>>77286695
man, if only i had something to dodge all your arguments
Trump bump
>>77286645
Exactly. It's surprising at times how many actual intelligent, informed and even open minded people there are here. But we have been so inundated with shills it is ridiculous.
I am extremely skeptical of things, and I always felt like the whole shill thing was mostly a boogie man, but I have seen it so much since Trump started winning, it's ridiculous. People like Milo, as much as I feel he is an ally, I partly responsible for this.
>>77286827
Not always. You can typically see the difference. And people who are trying to trigger /pol/ or troll do it for the attention. They aren't going to post a thread and never respond.
if only shills knew how many of their threads get hidden, their employers would stop paying them
>>77287288
kek
I just noticed something very strange....in the thread stats in the bottom right, instead of telling me what page this is on, it has a "?"....Can anyone confirm if they see this on page 1, or what page they see it on? Is it being ghosted/autosaged?
>>77285217
This board never belonged to you in the first place
Well, my posts are definitely not bumping the thread to page one.
>>77285217
As you can see
Push them hard enough and they reveal themselves and their agenda
Pic heavily related
>>77287999
Fuck you and your digits
I'm here sir
Anything I can do to help?
>>77288383
Yes. I can't bump the thread. ou can look at the thread stats at the bottom right and tell me if it tells you what page we are on, or if there is a "?".
So, keep this from hitting page 10.
Make/reply to good threads.
Point out every shill thread, and be sure to point out all instances of "1 post by this ID"
Memeing is allowed.
Save proof of shills and repost for other anons.
That's about all I can think of....Oh, any tips on identifying shills should be posted here I guess.
Hopefully we can get enough stuff to try and keep a general up. We get a lot of new users here, and it would help them out. Mods are very hit or miss, and probably compromised.
>>77285217
bump for freedom from shills
>>77285372
>debating with shills
this doesn't happen. they just want their shitty threads bumped up constantly
>>77285217
I thought /pol/ btfo threads were just satire?
>>77289518
if anything it is shitty trolling. once in a while these threads are decent, but when you see multiple threads in the catalog like this it is just spam.
>>77289518
Like I said, some are. But when it's the same thread over and over....and as always, follow the "1 post by this ID" rule if you aren't sure. But it should be easy to tell.
bumping for decent /pol/ threads
Where are all these shills even coming from? These faggots are all pro Hillary
>>77285604
Oh, yeah. Nothing gets my intellectual discourse motor going like interracial porn.
>>77285217
/pol/ BTFO threads can be funny and informative, classic /pol/ a lot of times. They're not inherently shit.
>>77290585
some people think they are paid shills
I think they are just reddit and tumblr posters trying to raid /pol/ after their past raids failed spectacularly due to them identifying themselves
>>77290585
Like I said, part of it is the fault of people like Milo. We have drawn a lot of attention, which is a good thing in the end, but we have to combat the shills to keep this board on course.
>>77285217
There aren't any shills. It's just a meme. I say this as a former person against shills. They're just a myth.
Here is a good example of the difference between a shill thread, and shitposting.
This is typical Canadian shitposting:
>>77282830
And here is a hill thread that got ignored:
>>77289704
The second thread has been posted at least 3 times today, since I got home from work, and every time, "1 post from this ID"
Is it possible to catalog all shill thread posters by post ID or are they different in each thread?
>>77291148

hillary artillery, ASSEMBLE for her!
>>77291989
No, ID's are different in each thread. They'd just changed their IP anyway.
>>77292143
there are no oldfags on /pol/ and this is why the board culture goes to shit during elections
>>77285217
This shit should be stickied. Have a relevant image.
>>77292465
Not true. I'm 33. Also the virgin neckbeard meme isn't true. I have been with my current GF for 4 years. /pol/ has a lot of older users.
>>77292652
Thank you, I was looking for as many of these as I can get. Going to use them in future threads.
Slide thread?
>>77292465
I remember noko
Make /pol/ great again
We are doing God's work, boys. The board is already looking better.
This is bad. Way too many fucking shills and shitposting going on. Scared as fuck we'll become the next /v/ or /int/ at this rate
Could someone, anyone please tell me if you can see the page number in the bottom right? I have a "?" there. Also, my posts don't bump. Someone reply so I can verify.
>>77293570
>/pol/ becoming like /v/

>>77293318

>>77293835
Hopefully not
>>77285217
/pol/ is now a Hillary board. Trumpfags are hereby asked to go back to >>>/r/The_Donald
bump TAKE IT BACK
>>77294386
I disagree. Every time I refresh page 1, there are no shill threads, that I see. A couple shitposting threads, but that's really good for this board this time of day.

>>77294386

>>77295314
I think we need better mods
>>77285217
How are they this well organized, constant, and persistent? The constant shilling has bee going on for nearly 2 days. They have to be staging up somewhere and communicating to make sure it never stops.
Has anyone looked for obvious signs of this on dumblr or plebbit? Should we get a slack going to discuss counter shilling measures? What worries me the most is that the current Trump general is a 1 OP post thread.
If they subvert us, lads, the meme magic dies. Remember what's at stake.
>>77285372

You know Trump is doing well when the shills go into overdrive. Kek
>>77295873
This.
>>77285217
Holy fuck, I can't believe the mods let this thread through. Yeah, the best way to tell if a thread is a shill thread is if it is UN-SAGEABLE. Repeat: You cannot sage shill threads.
bump against correct the record.
>>77296117
Another one
>>77296117
Sage only needs to go into the options field
>>77296117
>>77296152
I have never had this issue.Anyone else?
>>77296211
I am aware, but I put it in every field because that's where it belongs: In every field.
Nevertheless, certain anti-shill threads are also auto-saging (meaning, they don't show up in the catalog and will not bump even if you post in them w/out sage in the field,) so I'm surprised this one is still around. Maybe they do it only on certain days?
>>77296358
I actually have video proof, but I don't know how to make a webm or gif.
Anyone wanna post some good filter settings ? My regex skill is elementary tier
>>77296358
Nope only when I type it into both fields.
>>77296596
We need a discord so we can collectively fight the slide and organize a fight against shills.
>>77286954
>how does this prove you're not a bot
If you can't see why that was a retarded thing to say,nobody can help you. Go prep khalad
>>77296405
I've had threads autosage. And I'm not saying you're lying about it, I'm just wondering how widespread the issue is. I have never had it happen before.
>>77296117
sage only goes in options field, namefag
>>77290966
>>77296805
Actually it goes in all fields. Actually, it goes in the email field.

IT GOES IN THE OPTIONS FIELD ALONE.
Don't ask questions then act like you already have the answer dick weed.

I don't look at trip fag names.
sage in all fields works on 8ch it doesnt work over here you fucking negroid.
>>77285217
as widespread as the shilling is here, I wonder how many left-wing sites are also being ruined by them
You're all so paranoid and delusional. Has it simply occured to you that some people here simply do not like Trump?
>>77298777
Once again, this has absolutely nothing to do with Trump, and no one in this thread has said that it did.
>>77285217
OP, you don't understand. There are no Hillary shills. They're all regular /pol/ folks being satirical. With enough of them, then actual Hillary shills will be completely ineffective because it will be Poe's Law with them.
>>77298983
>Thread conversation is about shills in relation to Trump and the discourse surrounding thereof
>"nothing to do with trump"
Bumping for helping to stop shills
It's not only Hillary! After the coincidence detector hit the media the ADL created a team to fight /pol/
I bet the mods are in on it because it shouldn't be to hard to block the IP-ranges of official shill-ops.
bumpin
The shills are invading legitimate threads now. It's getting out of fucking control.
We cannot let this place become /v/ for fucks sake
Keep sliding any shill thread. And report also. Mods are nowhere to be found.
>>77285217
Thanks for pointing it out. I'll never reply to any of that bait again
I don't know what you're talking about, sage works perfectly fine.
Slap your comments inside the pictures

@HEnXYuJe
@RAjX2RdP
No one at all is being paid to shill for Hillary. It's a Republican-funded lie and a pathetic attempt to smear her campaign.
>>77303216
another example of this shit, its a nonstop barrage or pure worthless feces and ops who aren't around
>>77285217
The shilling has become so desperate and out of control...
To all the Drumpf gloaters, I'll tell you one thing: /pol/ is, and always will be, Hillary territory. OUR territory. The mods of /pol/ have formally endorsed Secretary Clinton for president. We will continue to control the front page with positive Clinton news. So before you start talking shit and bragging about your demagogue's win, I'll have you know that we're well versed in sliding threads. Say RIP to your 4chan accounts if you try anything cute. Assholes.

>>77285217
Is 1-post sliding a reportable offense?
Will I get in trouble for reporting them?
By the way, I've literally been doing my part the past two comments I made before coming here. They're everywhere.
>>77285217
Um, forgive my ignorance but don't the ID's change every thread? Or every day, or new session, or something? Mine are never the same, so I frequently get "one post by this ID"
>>77308378
Your ID stays the same in each thread. An OP who doesn't reply to his own thread is a shill. Everyone replies to their own thread.
>>77308697
Oh, ok. Thanks anon.
This isn't working no one is saging their threads or reporting them
>>77285217
I am sick of these massive amounts of 1 post by this ID crap that is just slamming /pol/
I think more and more of us are becoming aware of this and the bait they use won't be as successful.
Good job in keeping this in the forefront.
We've been shilled for a while now but they're hitting peak around this time instead of in the morning.
Don't forget to bump >>77291664, there's also good information in there to read
A reminder not to reply to the shilling threads that are blatantly fishing for unique identifiable information.
>>77309038
Just keep doing it.
>>77309198
Everyone is on this now. People are desperately trying to bump and sage the shill threads
>>77309262
Yeah it's getting out of hand now
>>77309457
I am. more people need to be on this
>>77309038
>>77309198
Just keep at it and keep the thread bumped. I will probably be asleep in a bit, so if this thread dies, make another. And don't forget to post the images of shilling that another anon posted earlier ITT.
>>77309626
Summer break + Happenings = Maximum damage control
They're trying to slide the entirety of /pol/ to deafen everything and subvert newfags
>>77309801
We need to keep fighting back and not give in
>>77309626
What makes me sad is when I would find something interesting (like a link to someone using periscope during the Paris riot today) my thread got slid and a ton of hillary posts quickly pushed it away.
I can just imagine we are not even close to dealing with the full fury of the jidf and hillary and soros / BLM shills. Things are going to get much worse.
>>77285217
>people think this thread is anything more than a an anti-shill containment thread
Shills are luring you sceptics into a thread filled with other shills to keep you busy.

How do we sage them? By not responding to their threads? hiding them? What do I do?
>>77311452

Miscegenation Shilling
----------------------
These posters often create bait threads in which they create a single op with the sole topic being about some form of miscegenation. These could be shock images of Black men with White women, or other types of threads where it is a picture of a non-white Woman with the OP asking if that woman is hot.
https://sli.mg/a/eCw35r
Trump General Shilling
-----------------------
Generally, the main Trump general shills are those who try to D&C the common posters in the thread. They tend to attack NAZI posters for being 1488ers, and AWOO/Anime posters for being r9k weebs. These types of posts serve no real purpose. Sometimes they are purely defeatists.
https://sli.mg/a/lNCRpN
General Leftist Baitposting/Sliding
---------------------------
These are low-effort non-miscegenation posts that generally involve some image macro and a very low-effort comment. Examples include "Really makes you think..","pol BTFO","pol will defend this", "conservashits (With Occupy Democrats Image)". Sometimes these threads have no purpose but to slide more useful threads.
https://sli.mg/a/IDMDH3
Dedicated Shilling
---------------------------
These are posters who constantly everyday on the clock post about a specific topic that goes contrary to most of pol. In the album linked you will see a very dedicated Canadian leafposter that for 3-4 months would argue how Obama did such a great job creating 14 million jobs. Any actual good arguments against Obama's capability as a president he would ignore, however, he would destroy posters who were not good at debating. The best way to defeat these guys is simply to ridicule them with memes, because you will never convince them they are wrong. They are very likely paid shills.
https://sli.mg/a/0tI6mz
>>77314715
Information Collection
----------------------------
Shills need to understand their target user base if they are to distract them. Frequently you may come across threads where posters discuss their spot on a political compass or disclose their own personality test. Red flag if OP has only one post. Shills intend to use this information to deduce how to attract the most posters to their bait threads along with figuring what specific fracture points can be used to divide and conquer the userbase.

The Art of Shilling

If we DDoS'd their domain, would that work? Or will that change IP's too? Maybe we should go for MAC addresses.

Do some useful stuff instead: Learn to code web automation/crawling/scraping (Twitter account generation,....) with Javascipt (Nodejs) or Java.

also make a second thread.
I dont know what can stop it man..

I try saging a slide thread and these fucks come out of the woodworks to bump it..
We need to have a discord where we can use a bunker to discuss these things.
We can't do this on a individual basis.
They seriously are not letting up
>>77320571
I'm thinking of abandoning this all together and just sticking to 8/pol/
I get way to mad over this shit and there is no collected effort to stop it.
I've now mentioned the discord twice and it is falling on def ears..

4chan is a place for 11-17 years old naughty feel marginalized and grown. They say rude things because they want to fit in with the other lemmings and be cool, despite having no user name or number of posts.
When you receive your first girlfriend who graduate to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc.
If a bride never occurs sometimes stay here until they are 21-23 and act as the 'cool' older brother, harassment and teasing the user typical teenager.
It is mostly men, alone, virgins.
/ Pol / is a place where furries, pedophiles, transsexuals, Stormfront and other racist hate groups also try to recruit these young people. Due to the nature of the board, if you have 10 to 15 fake IP can change the environment, you can get almost any subject for more than 300 responses, if the publication is kept in its own thread.
During the last 5 years various intelligence services have monitored and tracked users in this forum, but eventually realized that people here are not only harmless and the masterminds terrorists who are seeking children.
I'm here because I'm doing postgraduate research in internet anonymity and the type of person who wants to hide behind a keyboard. The profile that we extend over more than 90% of the user base in the Chans, with about 70% of them only lurking / wireless reading too scared to publish.
