you're not supposed to post anything in dunk tank because of rule 8 you can only post in dredge tank

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You can only post in the dunk tank if the subject of the post is a mega celebrity. Basically if Taylor Swift or Tom Cruise have a bad take you can post it there. Otherwise it's gotta be the dredge tank ~~unfortunately~~ fortunately.

honestly, it's better to only just post in dredge tank because rule 8 is arbitrary. if the mods for some reason don't think Tom Cruise is famous enough, they will remove the post. your Tom Cruise post won't get removed from dredge tank.

Bit Idea: Post everything in both, generate a list of names that get removed from Dunk Tank but not Dredge Tank, and use this to create a Celebrity Status Tier List

your Tom Cruise post won't get removed from dredge tank.

isn't that exactly what the OP screenshot shows?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago

the screenshot is the posts getting removed from gaming and then dunk tank, OP posted them to dredge tank just now for the trifecta

Who the fuck is screaming “stop posting” at my house. Show yourself coward, I will never stop posting

mods act like if they don't prune content for arbitrary reasons the site is gonna run out of data

Basically dont post this kind of stuff, its funny to see gamer brainworms first ten times, but we have all seen them already 200 million times and its just boring at this point. Before rule 8 was implemented every other post on c/the_dunk_tank was just a screenshot of the very common reactionary vermin that dot every comment section and it was just boring and unhealthly, so we implemented this arbitrary restriction to force greater variety of posts

I was just musing maybe there needs to be c/the_elon_tank

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

oh gotcha. I don't bother with posts that are just showing me something to get mad at so I just block it all.

Had no idea this existed, explains why I stopped seeing dunk tank posts

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

i removed the posts from games because they are not about games, they are pointing and laughing at the dumb things a gamer said. it's pretty simple

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

b but slop!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

It's simple: You are banned from posting!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago
