Ask HN:还有人使用过那些典型地“精通”的线上社区吗?
1 分•作者: Use•9 个月前
我所说的“典型精明”指的是那些既有一定细分领域特色,又以特定行为方式著称的网站和其他在线社区。我认为,将这些在线社区与其他社区区分开来的关键行为方式是:当有人发布指向另一个陌生网站的链接时,社区的其他用户几乎会条件反射地回应说这是一个“IP记录器”或“IP抓取器”,因为他们已经融入了该在线社区的文化。
我还发现,这些网站往往更倾向于围绕它们的Discord频道展开,而不是实际的网站,这常常会形成一种缺乏透明度的秘密文化。Discord的参与者通常会聚集在那里,爆料那些卷入丑闻的用户。最好的情况通常是用户“抓取网站数据”或“使用机器人”,而最坏的情况是用户发现一个知名用户参与了网络诱骗等行为。而且,被抓现行的往往是“管理团队”的成员。
最后,我还想提到的是,那些表现出上述特征的在线社区似乎更容易出现以下情况:要么创建服务器模拟器和“私人服务器”来复制在线社区网站或游戏的功能,要么直接泄露其部分代码库。无论发生哪种情况,总会有一种文化认为,拥有原始网站或游戏源代码的用户是掌握秘密知识的守门人。
我知道这些在线社区可能非常可疑,我并不想纵容那些具有这些特征的特定在线社区。我只是想听取大家的意见,看看他们遇到过多少符合我描述的在线社区,而无需明确提及相关网站或游戏。我只是想知道,这种原型是否比我之前想象的更常见。

By "archetypically savvy", I mean websites and other online communities that are both somewhat niche and known for specific mannerisms. I'd say that the key mannerism that distinguishes these online communities from the rest is when someone posts a link to another unfamiliar site and other users of the community respond almost reflexively that it is an "ip logger" or an "ip grabber", since they have assimilated into the online community's culture.<p>I've also found that these sites have a tendency to revolve around their Discord channels more than the actual website, oftentimes creating a secretive culture that lacks transparency. The participants of the Discord usually come there to spill the tea about users who've been caught up in a scandal. At best, it's usually something like a user "scraping the site" or "botting the site", and at worst, the userbase finding out that a prominent user has engaged in online grooming and what have you. More often than not, it's a member of the "staff team" that gets caught red handed.<p>Lastly, I would also like to mention that online communities that exhibit the hallmarks outlined above seem disproportionately prone to either having server emulators and "private servers" created to replicate the functionality of the online community's website or game, or having parts of their codebase leaked outright. Whatever of those two happens, there's always a culture about users having access to the original site or game source code being the gatekeepers of secret knowledge.<p>I'm aware that these online communities can be very sketchy, and I don't mean to condone these specific online communities that have these traits. I just want to get everyone's input on the extent that they have encountered online communities that match my description, without explicitly naming the sites or games in question. I just wonder if this archetype is actually more common than I previously thought.
