ELECTION DAY: Forum Is In A State Of High Alert
11-07-2016, 01:56 PM
I am putting the forum in a state of high alert, one step below a full emergency. This allows us to focus on the election in a most factual and calm manner possible, preventing confusion and hysteria. When the election winner has been peacefully declared, and we deem it fair, I will lift the alert.
Here is what this alert status will entail:
1. Any violation of the rules will result in more severe penalties. One-week bans in peacetime may now result in permanent bans. Those under 250 posts who get involved in political discussion, especially in regard to disinformation, may be permanently banned.
2. Do not spread disinformation. Before spreading a new leak or result, you must state or link your source. If you are caught spreading false information, you will be suspended or banned. If you're not sure if a source is legit, clearly say so.
3. No fearmongering. Keep your anxious emotions in check and do not attempt to scare the membership based on your own internal worries. Only share actionable and objective intelligence when it comes to threats or negative events.
You are free to participate in the forum like usual, but be extra diligent on following the rules and not causing drama. I expect this to be lifted by Thursday.

Hey, just curious, are you going to keep the forum in high alert if Trump looks like he is winning big in the election polls in swing states like Pennsylvania and Florida, but then loses those states due to election fraud and as a result, loses the election, and then makes a lawsuit to fight it(which could take months) and doesn't concede?
I could totally think some scenario like that could happen. I am not trying to fear monger or whatever, but that almost looks like the most realistic possibility at this point(I hope Trump wins so many other states that he could lose those 2, maybe he wins Michigan and Colorado and New Hampshire and even New Mexico or Wisconsin) but I am just curious what your plans are for the forum if any of that sort of thing happens, do we stay in high alert?(again, not trying to fear monger, but just comparing this election to the 2000 election with Gore and Bush)

That should say "exit polls" instead of "election polls"

Hey Roosh is it possible to make a celebration thread if a Trump win (WILL!) occurs on the everything else forum? So sub 250s can celebrate without delving into the politics forum?
I know I'll be excited as hell and will like to put my positive thoughts somewhere on the board.
I should've boosted my post count beforehand tho

I'm starting to get CloudFlare pages (live version unavailable) popping up when I refresh RVF. Is traffic spiking?

^^ if you have something important, unique, and verified, just PM the info to one of the knowledgeable, high rep posters who are currently in the thread. There are a couple guys who have offered to do this. They can post on your behalf if it is well thought out and contributes value.

I Voted.
No one should be posting here today if they haven't voted. Everyone who hasn't voted yet should go out and vote, and start every post today with the words "I Voted".
Due to the electoral college system, these elections can come down to a number of votes fewer than the members of this forum. Bush vs Gore was decided by 537 votes. If you want someone to win, but don't lift a finger to help them, you have no glory in their victory, and if they lose when you withheld the one and only resource they need which costs you nothing to give, then you have less than no right to complain about their defeat.
If someone talks about this election, but doesn't vote when they're eligible, how can we respect them?

This election is the first I will watch through the night since 2000, I was devastated at that result, how things change! Excited for all you yanks, hope you get the win over the establishment we so desperately need
