Some of you have probably noticed a small influx of new members. I want you to give some thought into how to interact with them. The purposes of your interactions should aim for 2 things. This will ensure they are integrated into the board and not taking over the board when they do outnumber us. It will also make sure that they stick around. Method one for communication is what helps them to log on a 2nd time. Method two is how they get integrated properly.
step 1.
Love bomb all new members. Make them feel welcome. Nothing is more infuriating than screaming into the abyss. When they arrive and they are brave enough to post, go out of your way to contribute to their threads. Interact with their posts, even if that means you have to play devil's advocate by disagreeing with a truism they are trying to promote, due to the fact all normies strawman their political adversaries. Friend request them. Ask them questions.
step 2
Our God on this site needs to be locic, and critical thinking. Our God commands an attitude that supports freedom of speech, so we can speak plainly and clearly without the need for euphemisms, or hiding our true premises. We love this God of reason so much that we are willing to go to war with him. Our arena is debates. If you argue with somebody in a thread, go challenge them in the arena to expose the flaws in their reasoning. The point is not to be right. You should never argue to be correct, but only to selflessly expose the poor reasoning skills of your opponents. If they agree with you, than they can agree for the right reasons. If they disagree with you than you will persuade them to stop believing stupid shit. This is the method by which we will train noobs to keep with and help mold the proper site culture.
Make your God happy, and train up new worshippers
