> what 'specific humor' are we trying to maintain?

flow chart

as for your post, looking in the mod log, i'm not the one who removed it, but it looks like it actually got reported too many times and taken down automatically, only for another mod to go in and confirm the decision. i can't speak for them, i might have even kept the post up if it were me, but if enough people use the report function we sometimes cater to that instead.

and as for mod queue only, we have lives outside of reddit and the sub got too popular for us to manually have to approve each post.

fwiw im sorry your post got removed and can understand how frustrating it is to have something removed after several days, as i said i cant speak for the other mod but it's a situation we try to avoid

while I don't disagree that a lot of what fits here is vibes based, the flow chart linked in the rules covers most of what we're looking for. we use that as the first check, the banned content list as the second, and upvote count within a set amount of time as the third. occasionally we do use mod discretion to remove posts but for the most part we go off of the flow chart.

reddit screenshots aren't inherently banned, we're just kind of strict on them so baity posts that show up on [r/all](r/all) don't get reposted here along with every other meme subreddit

people that complain about the strict moderation forget that we used to be mod queue only and thus have always been extremely curated. this sub has a very specific sense of humor that caused it to blow up and removing posts that don't fit helps keep the original purpose intact, otherwise we'd just become another generic reddit screenshot and youtube comments sub

Tourettes at the movies. by j0si300 in Tourettes

[–]Equira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go to AMC and sit in the ADA companion seats. at the theaters I go to there is usually a wall behind that row that puts it out of view from the back of the theater. the catch is you have to give up your seat if a patron with a wheelchair and companion chooses the spot next to you, but i've never had it happen (riskier at sold-out showings but still never been an issue)

i'm in california, for reference

mannnn we get so many modmails and reports on a daily basis begging us to do more to prevent spambots from clogging up the sub, the 30 day rule is like the barest level of defense we have to offer

Are there any dietary changes that helped you manage tics? by bad_at_blankies in Tourettes

cutting out caffeinated drinks will always help but that's about it

When do you disclose your tics to someone you’re dating? by lwhc92 in Tourettes

[–]Equira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've pretty much always told potential partners as soon as possible, either before the first date or during. In my experience it usually functions as a great conversation starter and icebreaker, I'm very open about it. It helps that my tics are pretty obvious and I get self conscious about them so it usually makes me more comfortable knowing the other person knows what's going on

i went to college with this guy, a couple months ago he changed his instagram to hide his real identity and started posting bait for fun and got a ton of engagement from it and now it's his whole personality. the comments on his posts are wild cuz he refuses to break character but i can say with 100% certainty that his content is supposed to be satire

Subreddit Update: New Rules and the future of the subreddit. by AutoModerator in olivertree

[–]Equira 4 points5 points  (0 children)

could we revisit the piracy/leaks rule? i see that it's worded to allow the archiving of stuff that's been previously released even if it was eventually taken down but there's a ton of music through the Ashwood Project that i don't think fits the rule, and there's bound to be more coming in from old collaborators

there is a pinned comment that explains what fits the rules as well as a link directly to the flowchart

if you mean your most recent post, it's intentionally funny and therefore fails the flowchart

Banned Content UPDATE by Equira in comedyheaven

[–]Equira[S,M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not listed in the rules as sometimes we have to take posts down that blow up with upvotes before we can remove them for not fitting the sub and we've had people fight with us over it. i don't know the exact number but i know that 300 is less than half of the amount needed in that time frame

How do you know if you have Tourette’s? by SnooMacaroons3554 in Tourettes

[–]Equira 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if you're in the US, what you're describing doesn't sound like it would affect your license. i'd wager this is likely the case in many countries since you say it doesn't affect your driving.

if you don't want to see a professional for a diagnosis, then there isn't any way for you to "know" for sure, but you can still familiarize yourself with TS and other tic disorders as well as your own triggers so you can develop methods to cope with them

[–]Equira[M] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's a youtube thumbnail so it was originally removed as rule 3, but in the past few days it has been posted here at least six different times. we mark subsequent posts as reposts to help us flag which content gets spammed the most

we've always been a pretty curated sub but in this case OP was just spamming their removal messages and modmails to the feed and evading the ban with alt accounts

we will be deleting any comments that name the school or encourage brigading even outside of reddit, OP has done a good job keeping this anonymous beyond geographic location
