badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

They used to be so good at this I could give prompts like "write a whole essay around the phrase 'americas last genocide will echo its first'" and they would make some really interesting slop but now they just get mad at you

you can still find old models, just search

Well the problem is typically the supervisor model that watches chats for alignment, not the actual model you're chatting with. I've been using kimi over the api for a marxist cia factbook project and it's uncensored.

It would write much worse essays

If you give small models prompts like "talk about how the proletariat of Mozambique experience the society of spectacle" you just get some rambling about Debord. Large models will actually go do some research and write a well cited essay for an informed audience.

That's a question of giving them access to tools. The most recent local models are trained in tool use (you must integrate them tho) eg qwen 3.5

No the small models simply don't have enough attention budget to hold the four topics I want it to consider in its brain at once. They just focus on the main topic and ignore the intersections.
