Posting bean or beanly posting amirite?
This community has merged with badposting
Per the discussion in these two posts:
A lot of times that distinction can be quite blurry, and I don't blame people for choosing to post in badposting instead, as that is the more active comm.
Reunite Good Posting and Bad Posting to a single comm, and remove badposting's rule #8. "Do not post good posts, these should be posted to c/goodposting" Turns out none of your posts are good.
Personally, there are absolutely times where consuming any type of badposting is bad for me, but I generally find the people who have a bigger audience to be more harmful than the ones who don’t - it’s easier for me to dismiss a shitty take from a nobody than someone with a large following. Overall, that tends to mean that stepping away from all types is the best route for me if I need a break, but that basically means I need to entirely tune out all current events.
Part of where the lines sometimes get too blurry for me is that a c/badposting post with 1.7k upvotes might be posted by a nobody, but it absolutely has reach, while I had no clue who Beanis was until recently, and yet the distinction between the comms wouldn’t help me to filter down to either set of bad takes, even if rule 8 were enforced here.
But I'd be the only one there/jk
There should be goodposting, badposting, and a_secret_third_thingposting (Max_Power_posting?), so we'll have a rock-paper-scissors faction mechanic
busposting
Badposting, goodposting, strangeposting, and charmposting.
At any one time you can occupy a 2-meson of communities.
The only good way to post, is to never post at all (impossible)
c/dialecticsposting or smth

badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Rules:
- Do not post good posts.
- Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
- Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
- This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
- This rule intentionally left blank.
- If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo
