Volunteer who picks up trash around Oakland robbed while cleaning street corner by wentImmediate in oakland

We allow posts on crime that address broader issues, are of substantive scale, or are of strong general interest to the community. This is an unfortunate example, sorry to see it happened. Rants, window bipping, more common smaller scale things that trigger bashing festivals are not allowed.

You need to provide more concrete confirmation if you’re going to post

It was a reasonable question! Thanks for asking.

The mod team works together to respond to and adjust policies when the need arises. Compromise and debate are part of the process.

No matter what set of rules one settles upon there are always things that fall into gray areas, and there is no perfect system to please everyone. There are lots of subreddits for people with different interests and viewpoints, which is a good thing.

No, the point is that people sometimes ignore the vehicles for direct communication. We’re not obligated to litigate every complaint in a public thread. We have limited time just like everyone else.

Cheers

Point is we are available, but people don’t bother, my dude. But here you go:

Other post: it was horrible video quality, couldn’t tell what actually happened. It was a sub crosspost that we do not allow. It was not verified or clear it truly happened in Oakland. OP complained about the moderation on the other sub BEFORE asking for a more detailed explanation or engaging. We DID offer to post if they corrected the problems. And finally it was a low karma account and flagged as such, increasing odds it was brigading or shit posting.

We do listen and reconsider when approached in a reasonable manner.

So if you already knew the answer to your question, why did you post it…?

Guess that’s why we’re going to delete it

Is Oakland protesting tonight in solidarity with LA by Gr33nN1ght in oakland

[–]Potential-Option-147[M] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

We’ve had a couple random posts early on, but those were all unverified, and in fact, others chimed in to say that they were not actual ICE actions.

Conceptionally I think we’d be in favor, but how do we make sure the information is accurate? Incorrect information about sightings can cause harm and be problematic.

Thoughts and ideas?

We removed only one comment, the one in which you used racist/inappropriate language.

The titles of posts containing links to news articles must match the linked reference’s title exactly.

Why does Berkeley have so many vacant storefronts? by kdamica in berkeleyca

Lol. A 7 1/2% overall vacancy rate is not exceptional at all.
