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.

Well sure, a moderator can write whatever they want in the sidebar, that doesn't mean it makes any sense. If you like you can create a c/catpics and then put a rule in the sidebar saying we allow all content except for pictures of cats. Just because you CAN do that doesn't mean it makes sense to

    Dude it's the rules. If you don't like them, make your own community. If you want them to be changed, be forthright about it and maybe make a meta discussion about it once to get a feel for it.

    If you wanna post in this community, you need to follow the rules. It's actually pretty simple.

    You clearly didn't read what i wrote. I said multiple times almost exactly what you just wrote.

    Your first comment went way into the weeds of specific rule applications. But the rules are vague because a lot of Lemmy is based on the spirit of the rules and not the exact language, specifically so that we can be more tolerant and lenient.

    And in your second post you were implying the rules of this community don't make sense. I told you it's the rules, and if they don't make sense to you you are free to make your own community.

    You told me I didn't read your comments but you also told me that you said exactly what I said. Either that's wrong, or there's no reason for that comment.

    I would be more chill about this but the whole thread is littered with underhanded attacks against the mods and this community and I question your motives.

    Dude, y so serious. Do you need me to quote some of the multiple times where i said basically "the rule doesn't make sense but the mod can do whatever they like"?

    I'm so serious because you are implying that I'm either stupid or that I have ulterior motives by saying I didn't read your comments, which I evidently did.

    Also "but the mod can do whatever they like" is nowhere to be found in your previous comments so don't act like you were being respectful about this. In fact, you questioned their whole ruleset. Nothing chill about that and nothing to indicate good faith engagement.
