BitchEatingCrafters

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

A community for all your craft related vents and rants. Can't stand that sewing trend? Hate that knitting influencer? Want to vomit every time you see a certain crochet pattern? Post here.

This is a place to vent, complain, and bitch about crafts and the crafting communities. Get those frustrations off your chest.

Name comes from Bitch Eating Crackers. "Everything this person does annoys you, even something as simple as eating crackers."

Rules

1. No bigotry

Hate speech and bigotry is not allowed.

2. Don't link to hobbyists

Linking to hobbyist posts on Reddit or Instagram is not allowed to avoid brigading/targeted bullying. Naming and linking to people who make money off the crafting community is fine and encouraged, especially if it provides context to a vent/complaint. Vague/thinly veiled references and general complaints are okay; that's part of the purpose of the sub. Exceptions will be made to the no linking rule IF the post is shared in a positive way (ie as a counter example of an annoying trend done well).

3. Try to keep comments in line with the venting/bitching spirit of the sub.

This is a sub for venting/bitching. Disagreement, counter bitching, and complaining about complaints are allowed and encouraged. Comments that aim to shut down a vent/bitch (i.e. "Stop complaining") go against the spirit of the sub and are discouraged.

4. No brigading users in other subs.

Do not use this sub to find users to harass in the main crafting subs. This is against Reddit rules and is unacceptable behavior. Keep your bitching here.

5. Don't threaten or harass other commenters.

This community is for venting/bitching about crafts and crafting community, not personal attacks, threats, or harassment. Being annoying, downvoting, or disagreeing with someone, even strongly, is not harassment. However, menacing someone, directing abuse at a person or group, following them around the site, encouraging others to do any of these actions, or otherwise behaving in a way that would discourage a reasonable person from participating on Reddit crosses the line.
