reddit General

Trust me I've earned my fair share of 'moderation'. One of them was actually in an art type subreddit.

But in no way did that work break the rules, it wasn't low quality, it wasn't a meme, the guy could prove he did it, and thus the quality is subjective. Otherwise what's the point of having art subreddits at all? Saying that you think AI could do better is not a valid evaluation, which is exactly why they have these paranoid rule about AI in the first place.

A few years ago when I was more (or less?) retarded I also posted in an art subreddit asking for advice on improvement. And also got accusations of using AI for my art lmao. I proved I wasn't with a timeline, and wasn't banned, but I banned myself from reddit anyways because realizing I couldn't escape obnoxious pissbabies even in drawing subs was enough to make it pointless.

The only time I have ever had pleasant interactions was on miniature subs for assembly help.

The paranoia over AI is so over the top, I am reminded why people stereotype artists as pretentious and obnoxious, its because they are lolol.

"AI could be here," he thought. "I've never been in this subreddit before. There could be AI anywhere". The cool fan feels good against his bare moobs. "I HATE AI" he thought. Talk Nerdy to Me reverberated his entire PC, making it pulsate even as the 5 dollar monster circulated through his thin veins and washed away his (unmerited) fear of machine learning after dark. "With a web browser you can go anywhere you want" he said to himself, out loud.
 
People nowadays make everything too competitive, you play the game to have fun and having fun means trying to win, sure, but it also means knowing when not winning is actually funner sometimes, and in games like Day Z, Rust, and this, or games with open mics, what is the point of having open mics if EVERY time you see someone you shoot or steal their stuff, you might as well turn off open voice chat and play it like its COD. Zoomers make games too competitive for no reason, they play to win and minmax, maybe that's their fun, but they don't play to have fun directly. I have seen a large shift in the mindset "gamers" have now versus how they were in the past. Part of that is the brownification of games with foreigners getting access to these games and zoomers acting more like thirdworlders/blacks. When I play these games I am massively reminded that I'm playing with like 50% third worlders or blacks who only care about "winning" and "being better" and winning at all costs (even cheating) instead of the main directive being, have fun. Games have lost that and so have their players.
people have been tryharding and sweating since the dawn of the internet.
what amplified it over the years was the shift from player operated game servers to centralized company operated matchmaking systems. back in the day people would form loose communities around servers they frequented, where people kinda knew each other, and this facilitated a more relaxed atmosphere and less serious approach to the game. whereas today you load into a matchmade game where everybody else is a total stranger that you will never ever see again after this one match, so there is no attachment, they might as well just be bots. also you almost always have some out-of-match meta progression to progress and ladder ranking to defend, which further incentivizes playing to win.

old school for fun gameplay still exists, but you won't find it in big mainstream FPS games (except maybe on some counterstrike community servers where they play surf maps, if that is still a thing)

bitches don't know I janny for free
So this retard had a meltdown, kicked out the entire mod team and ejected himself off the platform with the keys? Do I have this right?
You forgot the part where he's a 58 year old man
 
Damn, he didnt even turn out to be fat lardass. He's also an old ass gen Xer, and yet he acts THIS childish? I guess age doesn't make a man.
 
One of the top posts on Reddit today.

User is "kinks4kelly" and it has a troon mermaid avatar, dad who fought in wwii? that would make him a 70yo ancient troon at the very least

All he does is post boomerbook antimiga shit so he might be old but he might also be a fatherless loser like all troons, dont read up too much into that post most of these cunts are larping just like they larped about ukraine, how many enlisted for the frontline? oh right none
or if 2 people are role sperging in gta re enacting a tik tok fanfic or some shit and you decide to just run up and punch one or some variant of and then they immediately scream for daddy to perma ban (and of course they do)
You fucking shitting me right? its an openworld game how the fuck can they ban you for that?

Of course the reddit mod is a gen x'er. The power tripping checks out. Neglected kids who never recieved enough attention who's narcissism rivals that of the boomer.
 
Why does a guy who so clearly has no clue about people management cultivate the same look that at least half the art directors I've worked with have? None of them would have dreamed of speaking to their teams or clients like this guy did. Even the asshole art directors didn't act like edgy, power tripping teens. Maybe if you can't hack it, imitate the look in hopes of tricking people into thinking you are?
 
Looks like /r/art's entire mod team just resigned.

Looking into the context (EDIT: RATE ME LATE ON THIS, I didn't see the earlier posts, sorry), it's very fucking stupid.

Some guy posts his art to the sub, responds to someone asking if he sells prints without pointing offsite to anything (self-promotion is against the rules), and is immediately permabanned by powertripping mods. Asking to have his posting privileges restored, knowing that even something so inoffensive crossed the line, the mods also got so belligerent that they deleted his posting history.

After receiving mild pushback for this on and off platform, the mods took their ball and went home, and now the sub is basically derelict; it's impossible to submit posts to, and there are no moderators (edit: there's a new, different mod, but as of this post the situation hasn't changed).

Reddit moment.
They very clearly were not expecting the guy to go public with the mod DMs. Locking down the subreddit because your bad behavior is now well known is both extremely childish and, I have to imagine, against mod TOS. The admins should've stepped in and got them new mods or something.

58 years old and the dude is a reddit Janny? What the fuck? You think someone that age would have better shit to do besides moderating a fucking subreddit.

I assume the admins are 100 times lazier and more power-trippy.

They are. Considering how they banned the original dude who asked why his posts got removed for "harassment". They usually side with their jannies most of the time.
