No, you cannot complain about complainers complaining about complainers complaining. That’s too far!

You can’t decide that kind of thing. If it doesn’t happen organically, it won’t take off.

So, let’s get this straight.

You rolled up into someone else’s house and brought in some stuff they don’t want there.

They took that stuff, threw it out the door, but didn’t toss you out.

You then jumped their shit in their living room, and you’re surprised you aren’t allowed over any more.

And, now, you’re on the street corner complaining about it.

My dude, the way people throw around “power tripping mod” when what really happened is just the mod don’t what they’re there for, the phrase has lost all meaning. At this point, when someone says that, you don’t even have to read further because it’s a damn near guarantee that it’s just someone that didn’t like the mod decision.

Now, a c/ should have rules up, so that anyone rolling up knows what is and isn’t cool there. Kinda like everyone knows not to bring up religion or politics at my dinner table, or they get uninvited and possibly have bread thrown at them. Maybe even something messier.

It really doesn’t matter what the forum is, there has to be moderation because people are assholes. That’s just how we do as a species. Without moderation, shit devolves into slapfights and pissing contests. Which ruins the forum for everyone.

I’d rather have a power tripping mod than deal with twits stirring shit and starting drama

Scatole and indole. Two chemicals produced in the gut by bacteria.

Seriously. Liquid ass is one of the two.

Imaaaaaaaahhhaaaaaaaginaaaaaatiiiiion!

My reason for taking part is the fact that the cheap fuck, spez, wants to sell our content, place ads on seeing the content, mine tracking data to sell more ads, but only let us do it on the app that’s the most invasive, least developed, buggiest possible heap of shit that’s available for reddit.

He does all of that while crowing about reddit’s corpus of data, wanting to lock nsfw content to the official dumpster fire of an app so he can be a cyberpimp, and then repeatedly refusing to admit that he does nothing useful for the company that the mods and users actually keep going.

Fuck spez.

The api pricing is just the head of the zit. He’s the pus inside.

Tbh, on my mod account, I’m staying just inside where they’ll try to something. Not so that I don’t get removed, but to drag things out as long as possible. In the meanwhile, I’m dismantling and changing the automod little bits at a time, making small deletions of popular posts, etc so that when they inevitably catch on, whatever scab they throw in has to work harder than I did to set it up.

Fuck spez, and fuck reddit.

There’s https://lemmy.world/c/writingprompts, but it’s brand new.

It annoyed the crap out of me trying to sign up to kbin.

The freaking captcha is laggy as hell, and I finally get things confirmed, and I can’t log in with the exact copy/pasted info I just used to sign up

Which is off topic, but I needed to vent lol
