With a fresh crew of moderators, we are now ready to hear your opinions once more!
Unpopular opinion: it’s should not came back.
The mods here are fair, and will never abuse their power. With that said, BANNED (/s, obviously)
I didn’t know you left lol
Yeah. The admins locked it down a few days ago, as there was no active mods. They put out a request for moderators. They picked 3, and we’re open again!
What was the criteria for being chosen? If it didn’t involve picking up various types of fruit with your ass cheeks, then I don’t trust that you’re fit for the job.
They had a poll. Whoever got the least votes was elected moderator.
They also sorted by weight
Fruits and vegetables.
Thanks all for stepping up!
I know it was mentioned by at least one of the hopefuls in the new mods thread, but has there been any thought given to whether this place will steer clear of political posts? Everywhere else is pretty much overrun with them so it would be nice to have a community for just normal everyday unpopular opinions, but on the other hand the political bickering does result in lots of engagement so I understand if you’re planning to keep it around.
Check out the sidebar - we took your advice!
Woohoo!
prepares to receive all the blame
Fiiine. I’ll start
Why can’t I post politics?!? It’s your fault, isn’t it?
/s
huge win huge win huge win huge win thank you for making this site 1% less miserable
That’s a valid question. The mod team here is still working on ironing out rules and other things. That should be a topic we discuss. With that said, for now, political posts can be here, but the votes will determine if they are seen. Again, this is for now, while we try to stabilize things and determine our approach.
Absolutely fair, thanks for the reply. Will watch out for updates.
(Also, good luck pleasing both the “upvotes mean agree” and “downvotes mean agree” crowds 😉
thank you, admins, for taking this seriously
Thank you so much! 🙏 I appreciate you all taking the reigns
Do you have any plans on improving the rules? Or are they staying the same?
Edit: oops, sorry I didn’t read the other comment where you said that y’all were still ironing out the rules ‘n’ such
We just updated the rules! Thanks for being a part of this community!
Thank you for hopefully silencing that fool who was dropping bad faith/troll arguments in every thread, “because there are no moderators I can say what I want” such a blatant abuse of federated trust.
I disagree, I don’t think it’s really back. But that’s just my opinion!
Listen here, pal…
Thank you for your time
Wait, if this has many upvotes, this means its a unpopular opinion D:
The story of my life…
