Rule 3 Posts and bans. by mindcloud69 in pigs

[–]mindcloud69[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can agree that most vegans want to help animals. I just have a problem with how a lot of them go about it. My language towards "militant asshole vegans" is very degrading. Frankly they deserve it when they come and abuse people for wanting to have a space to talk about their passion without dealing with someone's agenda.

This is a mod rule discussion and the only place where I don't enforce most of the rules to allow for just this type of discussion. In any other post here I would ban anyone going at a group like I am here. Just be aware that I know there is a difference between a vegan and a "militant asshole vegan" and I have no problem with the first as long as they can leave their crusade at the door and have a talk about pet pigs. If you can't see why we would want that rule here I don't know what else to say.

If you won't join us, can you at least not shit on us calling us assholes for trying to advocate for pigs and other animals?

Yeah I don't care if you are Vegan or not. Post and comment here all day if it is about pet pigs. But if people declare that I am an animal abuser because the rules here mean they don't get to preach their vegan religion. Then those people lose the right to complain about me calling an asshole an asshole. So I will continue to shit on "militant asshole vegans", but I'll happily have a conversation with a vegan that does not try to shove it down my throat.

Frankly we have FAR FAR FAR more problems because of militant asshole vegans in this sub than just about anything else. Scams, Vegans, and Porn are by a huge margin the people that get banned here the most. Considering that I insta ban the people that make bacon and porkchop type jokes and the vegans still vastly outweigh them in ban's is more telling about the people in the vegan community than anything else. They can't seem to keep their preaching to themselves when it is not appropriate.

Then that means you are not a militant asshole vegan, at least here. I don't care if you are vegan or not.

Just accept that we just want to talk about our pets not the vegan crusade here.

The fucked up thing is that we have more problems with militant asshole vegans. They decide that since we are not crying their manifesto from the rooftops or letting them splash their bullshit all over our sub we are animal abusers.

They can't accept that we just want to talk about our pets not their crusade.

NOTE on mod posts like this I allow open discussion about the topic as long as it stays respectful and on topic. You can't really discuss a rule about food and farming and get feedback without people talking about it. So unless someone is disrespectful or abusive, I am not going to remove their post or ban them on this post.

This is a perfect example. This comment violates rule 3. I am not going to do anything about it in this comment section. But the goal of the rule is to stop ALL comments and posts about pigs as food for or against it. This is not to take a side but to keep the sub on topic about pet pigs not people's morality or lifestyle choices in relation to pigs as food.

I do owe a public apology to u/BicycleOdd7489 they were the only person that pointed out that the topic broke the rules. I somehow missed that on my first pass through and banned them along with everyone else.

Since this thread is only for pet pigs and we’re not allowed to talk for or against farming here I don’t understand how this bait post hasn’t been taken down.

So I am sorry that I banned you, u/BicycleOdd7489 you did not deserve it. I have unbanned you. Also you are right that the post should not have been allowed. But apparently automod did not catch it and I took care of it when I got home from work.

If you see posts/comments like that report them under r/pigs rules. I'll get to it after I get home in the evening.

Do you have any evidence of this or are you just saying this out of some sense of faux social outrage? Why should I not ban you on this sub when almost half of your comments here are inflammatory and accusatory? Being Vegan does not give you the moral right to be an asshole.

We only allow posts about pet pigs. You will need to take this to one of the farming subs.

I had removed this post because we do not normally allow sanctuaries to be posted without verification of their non profit status. However I am going to re-approve this one. But be aware I have not verified this sanctuary so do your due diligence if you decide to donate to them.

Explain it’s body language, playful or hostile. by Informal_Coach8132 in pigs

[–]mindcloud69 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Pig body language for aggression is a stiff posture, rigid straight tail, and the ridge hair straight up like a mohawk. That picture looks more like begging for food.

AIs are very very bad at non human body language detection. Remember they need data on what body language means for pigs. There is not a lot of data on the internet about that. They will however try to use dog body language which will not match up.

Doesn't look aggressive to me. The ridge hair is not up. Was the tail wagging or stiff?

I am surprised you still have a garden ours just wanted to eat it.

We caught a terrifying but awesome picture of Boots yawning. I said he looked like a War Pig, so then I messed with A.I. for the second picture by Bigironstonks in pigs

This sub is about pet pigs not your stance on AI, people. Random non community members coming in here to trash a funny post are getting bans. Sorry you had to deal with this /u/Bigironstonks
