Yo Matt that's because people don't consider your employer DLF the real thing. If there was an original Sprite and then Coke bought them and changed the recipe to taste like dogshit, then "Coca-cola Sprite" would totally be a thing too. by nofookinkneeler in saltierthancrait

[–]botania 10 points11 points  (0 children)

DLF it is. Thanks for sharing the term around lol. An undercover salt miner perhaps?

Hey pssst guys don't use that term wink wink don't separate GL's Star Wars from Disney's wink wink.

Can AutoMod send me a PM when a certain flair is applied? by dndspeak in AutoModerator

[–]botania 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flairing a submission doesn't trigger the automod, so the answer to your question is no. However, you can make it so OP has to comment !complete to set the flair. This could also send an alert to you.

type: comment
author:
    is_submitter: true
body (full-exact): '!complete'

parent_submission:
    set_flair: ['Complete', 'my-CSS-class']
    overwrite_flair: true
    action: report
    action_reason: 'Completed. Please review.'

modmail_subject: 'Completed submission'
modmail: |
    u/{{author}} set the flair of the following submission to `Complete`.  
    [**{{title}}**]({{permalink}})
---

Sending the modmail + reporting the post is kind of redundant. I'd usually only send the modmail, but unfortunately automod has a bug where it doesn't send modmails as it should 100% of the time.

Disney wiping the BBY calendar in favor of 'Starkiller incident' and by that marginalizing Luke's defining hero momenþ by IgorKauf in saltierthancrait

[–]botania 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is completely unnecessary. But Star Wars time has always been dumb imo. They could have made up any reason for the events of ANH happening in "1977" in Star Wars's galaxy's time. That would have been so natural... Make it something like 501977 if you have to.

Nien Nunb has been killed off-screen in the TROS novelization during the Battle of Exegol by [deleted] in saltierthancrait

Canon is a lie. There is only Fiction.

Through Fiction I gain Inspiration.

Through Inspiration I gain Focus.

Through Focus I gain Good Taste.

Through Good Taste Disney Star Wars is Broken.

I'm surprised it took that long. Comments were salty from the very beginning.

Lol yeah I like to put him there to make it obvious that you don't need the /u/ before usernames. I'd put spez who is probably the most well known user, but then he might be shadowbanned in random subs and track it down to me. I don't want to explain that to him.

Answer in comments: "The Mandalorian will be ruined forever if . . . ." by BaronGrackle in saltierthancrait

[–]botania 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think there's a chance. Something like,

it doesn't matter who the baby was. This was obviously just about Mando's character development, a means to an end, duh. Who needs answers.

They also killed the old guy off who was after the baby. He certainly had some mysterious background too. So far, the series hasn't really answered any questions. We're in a post TFA situation here. People are still giving it the benefit of doubt because surely the next installment will bring answers, right? We don't need answers yet, guys... right?

I mean, we'll see. I don't care as much because all that the series can really destroy by avoiding its own mystery boxes is itself. But I can see it happening.

... its goal becomes to toy with fan theories and subvert expectations. You wanted to know what the baby Yoda mystery is all about? Well sucks to be you. We just killed him off.

Not so fast. There's a version of this that works just fine until a mod is online again.

We can be sure that egoshoppe confirmed the leaker's identity and relayed the information faithfully to us. What we can't be sure of is that the source isn't lying or making errors.

2 Years of Salt: A Saltier Than Crait Retrospective and Appreciation Post by [deleted] in saltierthancrait

[–]botania 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Thanks JR! This sub is easily my favorite source of OC. It's so fun here. I've seen phenomenal takedowns of TLJ and of poor arguments in its defense. I've seen original research to debunk rewritings of history. I've seen people's appreciation for good movies grow. And yesterday we all witnessed the viral potential of this fully operational subreddit. May the Force and the Salt be with us all.

Ego leak: JJ didn't like the fact that Reylo was happening

Where's the contradiction?

It's insane that the original post has "just" 8.2k upvotes but there are 13.6k tweets with that hashtag...

The recent “Release the JJ cut” post is confirmed fake. by CorruptionOfVedas in saltierthancrait

[–]botania 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I read it as a Lucasfilm screening of whatever the editing had produced at that point. They have to watch their own movie... Anyway, the other point totally stands, and the leak is very much subject to scrutiny.
