We have been seeing a big influx of memes and non Pic posts. This is a reminder that this community is meant for Pics which is just that - pictures taken with a camera. Any non Pic posts will be taken down and frequent infracture of that rule will lead to a temp ban.

We have also been seeing an uptick on Violent posts and manifestos. This is not the community for this type of post. No violent, NSFW posts are allowed. These will lead to an immediate temp ban. I understand with tensions today that people are rightfully upset about society, but there are other communities that allow such posts.

Any questions feel free to reply to this post or DM me. Happy posting.

No need for the pedantry. But yes this is very much needed. This community has been a bit chaotic recently.

It's not pedantry, it's a massive difference in moderation direction from what you said.

I only view my main feed so i don't pay attention to what post is in what community, but i believe you that a new moderation direction may be needed. But it also sounds like you're talking about trying to steer it into an extremely narrow alley which isn't valid to the title of the community. c/photos is for only photographs, but c/pics means it's for way more than just photos.

You have the ability to restrict it to just photos of feet if you wanted to, but imo that also wouldn't be valid.

I'm glad you're moderating out violent posts though
