Seems like Voat may be down for a while. Reddit won't get my content ever again so I came here. Want to get a feel for the place before I make any actual submissions.

I get the rules here are different and I can abide by them and be respectful, but I wonder if they will allow the DIYGUNS sub here. Was really excited about that and now that I have everything (almost) I was so excited to get it started.

Anyways if you don't know me I was on Voat since almost the beginning. And stayed loyal to the platform. Yes I am a racist, but I had my reasons and yes I can contain my views within this platform.

Here is to hoping this place can make it longer.

Many people are mildly racist: you should have better luck discussing related issues around here than you did on raddle.

Posting content of any kind that incites discrimination, hate or violence towards one person or a group of people because of their belonging to a race, religion or nation is strictly prohibited.

This is a little ambiguous, but I think any reasonable interpretation isn't a real impediment to good discussion. The admins seem reasonable.

How far is this enforced? I'm still finding my bearings. I have been looking for a place that's in between reddit and Voat. I'm glad your front page doesn't look like a Nazi spergfest, but I also hope we can have frank discussions about things like the Islamification of Europe without our comments being deleted. Otherwise there's no difference from reddit.

In fact, I don't really see a mission statement anywhere. Could anyone give me a rundown of what does differentiate this place from reddit and/or why it was created?

I'm nobody around here, but I get the impression that there is no clear mission statement, apart from some obvious states of dysfunction that the admins probably prefer to avoid if possible.

Sticking to the facts of specific issues and trying to avoid asserting sweeping/emotive conclusions would probably be wise. If someone unreasonable was enforcing that rule, there are a lot of things that could be interpreted as 'inciting discrimination' - but again, the admins seem reasonable.

New here, but seems the rule is act as if you were in a public and visible setting where you can have consequence.
