>>304060>He needs to get rid of these mods and bring in his own Japanese buddiesAt first glance I thought this would be a bad idea due to the language and cultural barriers, but now I think that may be a plus.
-There would be quite a distance between the JP mods and western posters, so they won't be affected by social battles such as the one between MRA and SJW, and are less likely to weigh in or moderate them. To me, that's good.
-By not being dragged into these social issues, JP mods would focus on enforcing objective rules, such as CP and spam.
-By ignoring shitposts, JP mods are less likely to be manipulated by falseflaggers who try to get certain topics shut down completely.
I think in the long term, even more important than having JP mods, Hiroyuki should build relationships with Japanese companies who already advertise on Japanese imageboards, since they would have no qualms with the content posted here, and are seeking to expand their market overseas.
