Alright, I've got the survey results. I'll post the total response charts from google forms, and then just a couple I think are interesting. I'll also include the data pruned of nonsense responses, so people can add their own analysis. If I get around to it, I may take a few requests and add them throughout the week. I'll also address some of the feedback for mods, paraphrased based on the content category it falls under.

Mod Applications

Also, as usual we need more mods, so as long as you are anti-black pill we are open to whoever is interested.

Results

A lot of dudes

Feedback Section

Feedback: "None/Good job."

Response: Thanks.

Feedback: "You remove too much stuff./Do less moderation."

Response: Too much stuff does not follow the rules, even with safeguards in place. Acquaint yourself with the subreddit rules. Subreddit rules are to keep the subreddit on topic and from getting banned and allow somewhat functional debate that minimizes circlejerking. (Black pill is not a subreddit topic.)

Feedback: "Mods are biased in favor of women."

Response: Men outnumber women (see survey data) on this subreddit. A lot more men will get banned just based on numbers alone. Also, men are more likely to be black pilled (see survey data), which is banned. If you are black pill and don't discuss or promote black pill there is no issue.

Feedback: "Ban <person I don't like>."

Response: No, just don't respond to them if you don't like them. This isn't a subreddit where you only get to see things you like. It's pretty much the exact opposite of that.

Feedback: "Allow looks post."

Response: We will once every black piller is gone, until then, it's relegated to the looks weekly thread.

Feedback: "Allow black pill."

Response: Absolutely not. If we feel people are trying to introduce black pill or incel content, it will be removed. This is includes anti-incel/black pill content that would make incels and/or black pillers reply with incel content.

Feedback: "Mods are gay."

Response: no u

Feedback: "Bring back the purge."

Response: Unlikely to happen, reddit landscape has changed and it would require substantially more modding.

Feedback: "Need more mods."

Response: Yes, if you are not black pill and interested, please respond below.

Feedback: "Add 'no pill' to survey."

Response: That is blue pill by definition. No pill doesn't provide information in pill debate demographics, you can identify as non-pilled elsewhere.

Feedback: "Mods are biased against women."

Response: You should debate the people who think the mods are biased against men. In the meantime, I'm glad everyone is feeling oppressed.

Feedback: "Add trans/non-binary options for gender."

Response: Not really useful in a heterosexual dating debate subreddit, I believe we did have it in the past and the only thing it made us do was ignore the 2 responses that used it, pick the one you identify with best or avoid the survey.

Feedback: "Do more to stop black pill/incels."

Response: Please apply to join the moderation team.

Feedback: "Make debate more constructive/proper."

Response: This is really hard to do here and has been for a decade. Also, there are plenty of people interested in that type of debate here as well, you can simply debate with them. If you require this to be a universally applied, there are other spaces for more refined debate. Moderation is not interested in playing referee.

Black Pill Topics That Will Be Moderated

As there are several red pill mods, we have decided there some concepts that are thrown around here often and are decidedly not red pill but black pill, and will be moderated. This is not an exhaustive list and attempts to game or lawyer these topics will likely not have a positive resolution for you, but it should give you a start to understanding the type of things that are not allowed. If you want to discuss this stuff, you will have to go elsewhere.

Woe-is-me:

  • general complaining about one's own lack of prospects or difficulty
  • complaining about a group's lack of prospects or difficulty e.g. male loneliness, male sexlessness, female/femcel oppression

Incel:

  • promotion of incel or black pill ideology e.g. saying black pill or incel is correct
  • unwillingness to change or improve oneself or saying game is not important "as Chad/physically attractive men would not have to" or claiming that doing so is "cucked" or makes one a "dancing monkey" (blue pill challenging of game is allowed still e.g. saying that game is manipulating women or unethical)

Lookism:

  • detailing specific physical traits that are genetic that cause failure e.g. facial aesthetics, dick size, height, balding, race, etc.
  • invalidation of arguments not about looks by responding "they would or would not do something for Chad/attractive person" or "it's only because they were attractive/unattractive"
  • claiming that you can't get a partner unless you are in the top X% physical attractiveness
