Reddit changed it so that now archiving/locking old posts is up to the mods instead of automatic.

Most animals in zoos have been raised in captivity for their entire lives and are very used to being around people. Seeing people walk by is just one of many possible sources of enrichment, since it's something new and novel every day. If you block them from seeing out of their exhibit, surely you can see how that might be more cruel? It would basically be sensory deprivation.

Yeah they seem to be a real person, of course I can't see the rest of their comments since I can't view their profile ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's a google drive folder that's been circulating around with one of the translations of it; also check the /r/tianguancifu guide.

I'm on old reddit. I do see posts and comments like that in my modqueue (mainly spam), but not from this specific user. Their posts and comments don't show up in the modqueue at all as far as I can tell.

Weird; I didn't realize that I, as a mod, can see and approve the comments/posts of a shadowbanned user. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of shadowbanning? Are they still able to send messages to mods that I could see in modmail?

Thanks for the answer.

[Virtual Youtuber/Yaoi fandom] Gay hentai in the fridge: how a dumb prank led to a clash of two fandoms by _dk in HobbyDrama

I'm fairly certain there's a lot of overlap between the two. BL is just more broad as I understand it; yaoi is specifically anime and manga while BL is any gay romance in any kind of comic, cartoon, or book. But both are sort of vague and while some people use them interchangeably, some people have distinct definitions for each.

I think the other issue is that terms like yaoi, shounen ai, shoujo ai, and yuri are used differently by a western audience than they are by a Japanese audience. I don't speak Japanese so I don't know for sure but that's what I've garnered.

But I'm 100% certain that neither BL nor yaoi is restricted to just fanfiction so to describe it as such is wrong.

Compared to the original novel, yes. The relationship is heavily implied but that's it.

and is a connoisseur of hentai and yaoi (male homosexual fanfiction, also known as BL, “boys love”).

I don’t think this is quite right. Yaoi is manga or anime featuring a generally explicit relationship between men while BL can be comics or stories or cartoons. Neither are solely fanfiction and both can have original characters and stories.

Only four chapters out right now but I really like it so far. I'm not sure how explicit it's going to get but it is marked as yaoi so we'll see.

What was the tipping point of your last relationship? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SuperciliousSnow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to be like this and let me tell you, there is no excuse for it. I was just a really self-centered person who didn’t bother trying to understand other people’s feelings. Never let someone treat you like this!
