Look they were trying to infiltrate the KKK to protect people. The fact that they funded the founding of several chapters was just an unfortunate necessity

Mods are not gathering and archiving information on posters for later use.

Sometimes when a chat thread gets targeted by offsite (or onsite) psychopaths and that thread contains a lot of personal information on those posters, it gets moved to a hidden forum so that people won't be able to scrape it for information on those posters.

This is a wholly separate process from... whatever the gently caress was going on with PPJ.

yeah lol. in the hierarchy of things *actually* need mod attention immediately it's
1. preventing potential irl harm (basically doxxing and suicide threats)
2. editing hundreds of photos of dicks off the forums

that's it.

#1 is the reason mods are so protective of what happens in the mod forum, and presumably the reason anyone thought having a secret agent for advance warning of doxxes (lol) was a good idea.

Beet Wagon posted:

I think you might be conflating two things.

The first concerns personal information that people put into public threads on SA. That's the kind of thing that gets moved to Test/Moved, when something goes wrong. It's a simple move of a thread from, say, somewhere in TGRS, or PYF, or E/N to a secret forum where outsiders won't be able to scrape it for information. I guess there's always the possibility that someone with access to that forum could leak it, but they could have anyway because prior to the move it was in a public forum.

The second is the mod forum itself, where sometimes mods talk about things other than modding. That forum gets regular resets, because it doesn't see a ton of traffic so there's the potential for any new mod to come in and see posts from mods five years ago talking about where they live or what their job is or whatever. Any personal identifying information in that forum would pertain only to the mods who were talking about themselves. The periodic resets of threads in the mod forum are meant to mitigate the threat of someone breaking bad and doxxing people by leaking the forum (and not, as someone suggested, to hide evidence of Crimes or whatever).

What is not happening in the mod forum is the assemblage of some kind of hidden database of posters private information, or who they are on offsites (I don't know how PPJ kept track of that, if they did at all, but I do know it wasn't in the mod forum) or anything like that. Does that make a little more sense? I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be an rear end in a top hat, I'm trying to explain it the best I can.

e.g. there used to be a thread where people posted photos of their kids and stuff, but it stopped after aatrek got outed.

PPJ closing the original QCS thread to post an explanation and evidence of his findings, one of which was an anti semitic image, and getting a random admin to back up him and take down anyone making GBS threads on his CSPAM post, only for him to close that thread as well and a bunch of others spring up from the ashes and Jeff hides out in the one made in GBS

describing anything as a 'project' or thinking there's some formal sanction process or whatever would be misleading. like, some mods don't even post in the mod forum at all.

mods are just posters who need to maintain some distance so they can be impartial-ish, and are generally cautious about what they post about themselves b/c there's a bunch of offsite psychos who want to doxx them.

To be fair that's our fault. In the minds of most of the mods we dreamed that into being by being terrible, and it's really unfair what we did to poor poor PPJ.
