News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

More replies than I thought there would be. Are those volunteers?

From what I've seen a lot of them are trolling the admins in the replies.

Stuff like:

As a former mod, I think there is no better choice for a new moderator of r/malefashionadvice than myself. My plan for the subreddit is simple. It's time to put "male" back in malefashionadvice. That means mandatory penis inspections before anyone is allowed to give advice or post in WAYWT. If high school sports teams can do it, why can't we? Thank you for your consideration.

I would like to moderate this subreddit. I think getting rid of third party apps and removing the mfa mod team were awesome decisions and I want to expand on those ideas as a new and improved mod. First obviously we would institute bans on anyone who has participated in the misguided reddit protests. Second to make sure that reddit is effectively monetizing we will ban direct links to clothing websites and instead link through a new reddit shopping portal. Lastly i would ban the word scab, its distracting people from the content.

I'd like to be a mod because I think Spez is a dishonest creep, as is everyone involved in the ModCodeofConduct account, and I pledge to do my very best to burn all your efforts to the ground.

There's obviously going to be some begging for it, but I can't tell which of those are actually wanting it, or pretending to want it just to troll more.
