/pol/ has an infestation of people copy&pasting the same thread multiple times a day knowing that it will go for at least 100 posts before it 404s and they can post it again.

While it's good that they copy and paste the exact same thread and picture so that you can easily recognize and ignore specific users, lots of people end up responding to the OP before he makes a new thread and claims that no one responded to him. People will continuously feed these posters hundreds of replies a day and the only defense is to post roll images or shocking pics/webms to derail the thread.

There should be some system to prevent people from making the exact same thread/post within a certain amount of time, or put this restriction exclusively on Canadians since they're the only ones who do it. With 4chan X you can filter all Canadian posts but occasionally it will cause you to miss non-troll threads created by the few Canadians who do more than just shitpost. I've wasted too much of my time stalking these posters and calling them out whenever they make a new thread, I'd rather just prevent them from it entirely because they get the exact same responses every time.

Those threads are called "generals", and they are a problem on most of the faster boards, not just /pol/. That's why >>>/vg/ got made, for instance. There is nothing mods are willing to do to about them because half the site likes them and the other half think they are cancer.

Not generals, those are fine. I'm talking about the threads where the OP posts a fake or misleading image with a copy&pasted body or just an "X BTFO" or "well /pol/?"

It will get debunked and refuted in depth and the OP will abandon the thread and make a new one a few hours later. It's pretty common for them to post a YouTube link every time to get clicks. The annoying part is when the thread becomes so common that people just copy&paste the same responses or just a screencap of the duplicates of that thread from the past few days, and the OP's response is "wow you can't respond so you have to accuse me of trolling" and when a new refutation or debunk is posted in response to that, they just throw out SJW buzzwords and leave the thread.

They get especially venomous when you point out their flag because they are aware that it spoils their mission. They are immunized against all dangers. One may call him a cuck, an SJW, a spammer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him A FUCKING LEAF and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I've been found out."

Not even that works because they're starting to use proxies so that you can't tell they're Canadian unless you recognize the exact post and image.

I think I know the kinds of threads you are talking about, OP. I was trying to tell someone else about those in a /qa/ thread recently and I kept getting told I was making it up or imagining it and that people just post the same image all the time.

Just saying, unless you have screenshotted examples from 4plebs it's going to be hard for people here to understand what you're talking about.

>implying anyone cares about what happens to /pol/

/pol/ is the literal definition of a containment board. Be grateful that it hasn't simply been nuked. And...

>implying that anything can be done to improve the quality of posting there

As long as /pol/ continues to be a bastion for Stormfags, there's nothing that could possibly be done to improve the quality of posts there. Let's be perfectly honest OP, because you aren't fooling anyone - you're essentially asking the mods to make /pol/ into your own personal hugbox where nothing but far-right opinions are allowed to be expressed, with anything else being dismissed as "shitposting" or "le SJW boogeyman."

Here's a sincere suggestion for you: Kill yourself. If you truly believe the world has become some kind of leftist version of an Orwellian dystopia, then clearly 1.) You have no reason to continue being here since there's nothing for you in this world, and 2.) Most everybody hates your guts and will probably go out of their way to make your life even more miserable due to the views you hold.

And before you say, "Fine, I'll just make it my mission in life to inconvenience the haters as much as possible," bear in mind that espousing your retarded views in public will more likely result in people openly mocking you than actually internalizing said views and becoming offended by them. Save yourself any further embarrassment and just end your misery now.

>stormfags
Get with the times, they left years ago. It's a pro-Israel centrist/republican board for the most part. The far right posters are shooed out just as quickly as "JIDF" was shooed out in the shitty far-right era.

I'm not referring to actual people challenging the typical beliefs there either, those are common and they're the most productive posters of the board. I'm talking about people deliberately shitposting the same thread or post over and over again and then saying "wow people can't refute this" after reaching the point where no one takes the time to respond. It's a coordinated effort by Canadians to shit up the board so they can get (you)s. They don't get banned for it because it isn't as blatant as the porn spammers.

Take it from me, the weebs on this board won't ever believe you.

I don't browse /pol/, but I'm guessing that this happened because the board got popular. Anti-semitic conspiracytards are ALWAYS a minority amongst racists.
It's just like how it is at Flashback Forum.
