Flushing and refilling the shitposts in your meme community is a key part of long-term engagement health—especially if you want to avoid stagnation, toxicity, or clogged discussion threads. Whether you're running a small niche forum or a large meme group, this DIY job is straightforward with the right tools and a bit of patience. Here's everything you need to know to do it properly.
🧰 Tools & Supplies You’ll Need
Moderation dashboard or admin panel
Content flagging and reporting system
Bulk deletion or archival tool
Meme posting scheduler or content funnel
Community guidelines document
User engagement bots or AI filters
Backup storage or archive
✅ Optional: Sentiment analysis tool (especially useful for detecting toxic discussions or off-topic tangents)
🔧 Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Let the Community Calm Completely
Never start flushing when emotions run hot. Wait until the discussion calms down and check that the atmosphere is cool to the touch. -
Locate the Main Channels and Removal Tools
In your meme community, these translate to your main discussion boards and post removal functions.
Remove obstructive pinned posts or distracting sticky content (usually secured by admins).
Find the delete or archive button at critical threads. Some communities may require removing sticky posts or access restrictions.
- Open the Discussion Threads and Drain Shitposts
Place your archive or trash bin beneath the main feed.
Open the main discussion thread and then open the removal tool.
Let the shitposts fully drain.
Don’t forget to check subthreads or off-topic channels—these help remove old memes trapped in side conversations.
- Optional: Perform a Flush
If the shitposts are stale, toxic, or haven’t been refreshed in years:
Close the removal function.
Fill the system with clean discussions and run the community engagement (active conversations) for 5–10 minutes.
Let cool, then drain again. Repeat until the feed runs clear.
- Refill With Fresh Shitposts
Close all removal prompts.
Slowly add fresh quality memes using your content funnel or scheduler.
Fill the main channels completely, and also fill the overflow or off-topic channels to the “MAX” line.
- Bleed the Discussion Atmosphere (Important!)
Trapped miscommunications can cause conflicts.
Start community activity and let it idle with open discussions.
Keep conversations lively and active.
Watch for off-topic tangents escaping the main channels as moderators intervene (usually after 5–10 minutes).
Top off the main feed as meme activity drops.
Once tangents stop and the feed stays full, restore normal moderation controls.
In large communities, this process can take longer—using advanced moderation tools or sentiment analyzers is highly recommended.
- Check for Gaps & Run Engagement Test
After closing everything, monitor user sentiment and activity.
Check for gaps in moderation at threads, user comments, or report queues.
After a short test period, let the community calm and recheck meme quality in both main and overflow channels.
🕒 Recommended Shitpost Service Interval
Small groups Every 2 years or 30,000 posts
Large forums Every 5 years or 50,000 posts
🧊 Pro Tips
Always use fresh, high-quality memes that are relevant and clean.
Don’t mix meme qualities (e.g., low effort with high effort). Flush thoroughly if switching types.
If your community is still running hot after a flush, check moderation policies, admin roles, or fan engagement.
