Literally 12k members in the guild. The amount of power that one Ruqqus user has over the guild is immense. The site is burning to the ground at this point as the person in control of the guild now basically controls a large amount of posts that go out to Ruqqus users. I'd imagine it will be turned into a propaganda guild.

Hey xigbar just came by to tell you we've realized you were mostly right.

I was in the original RCP and it was just supposed to be a joke. Most of us didn't expect anybody to actually be banned. But it devolved from jokes to people just wanting to use it as a personal army and to brigade anybody who disagrees with them so most of us left. The people that were originally in the RCP have basically broken into two groups, the trolls, some of which are still on the dankmemes server and the people who unironically want to ban everyone who disagrees with them on Ruqqus discord. They post links of personal arguments with people on Ruqqus then brigade them with like 5 people, then if they start arguing back admins will warn them for "harassment". The dankmemes group has been critical of the ban of JG, dewdrop and other BS "harassment" rule violations that have been used to get rid of people the admins consider a headache.

After dio sieged WRD to troll people, kek got really pissed since it was owned by the "real cabal" on Ruqqus discord and started using his admin powers to fuck with anyone who criticized him. Removing mods from different guilds banning people for criticizing him on Ruqqus discord, etc. They added a new rule that admins can remove GMs if the admins don't like the way they run their guild and admins have been using it to hand out guilds of people they don't like to the cabal on Ruqqus discord. Admins forced the GM of +4chan to either add a cabal member as moderator or lose his guild after he threatened to make it private.

They have a new guild where you can just go to beg admins to take peoples guilds from them and if you're more liked by admins than the current GM they give it to you:

Admins are now saying they're going to manually pick and choose what content is shown on the front page (or possibly with help from members of Ruqqus discord) and they don't care about being a free speech site anymore. They're also saying if you don't buy massive numbers of coins they don't give a fuck if you don't like it and don't want to hear your opinion. So basically the site is just going to exist for carpathianflorist who the rules aren't enforced against and to a lesser extent a couple others on discord who bandwagon with him. The site is going to be just like a big stage show controlled by discord members in the background.

They're trying to fool people on RedditAlternatives saying things like the admins are unbiased and have never unfairly banned anyone and they plan on just covering up all the stuff that's happening in the background by hiding it from new users.

Thanks for the large comment confirming I was basically right. Ruqqus is becoming an even bigger lulcow it's pretty hilarious when I heart things like this of how much Ruqqus is devolving.

Astroturf shill campaign huh? Perhaps, I should organize something with the Anti-Ruqqus Alliance (meme group I made for the lulz originally) to counter these shills efforts. Probably with this: https://files.catbox.moe/wjzhpb.png

Or I could just not. I don't really care to put any more time nor effort into Ruqqus at this point. As far as I'm concerned, the admins are going to squeeze out a few more shekels before finally killing off the site completely. That is the inevitable fate of Ruqqus.
