hi friends! :)
mod refugee from Brisbane here :)
can i get some “fuck spez” in chat
Fuck spez and I won’t be going back to r/Brisbane or any other subreddit from now on
So it will either be this community or whatever other one manages some sort of ‘critical mass’ that will get my participation in chat about Brisbane going forward
Yep, same. I used to mod /r/brisbane, but my reddit account is now history! There is no going back
This whole drama has really killed my enjoyment of Reddit as a whole …spazs attitude towards mods being pretty much disposable is disgusting.
/r/Brisbane was surprisingly one of my favourite subs and in reflection I spent more time there than I thought. Hoping the community can take off here the same way it has for Melbourne.
I would actually navigate to /r/brisbane/new and avoid my feed, very rarely ventured out but I’m excited for this place
hope so …bit basic from a first glance but if the userbase gets behind it it’d be fairly solid
also refugee here, decided to ditch the old username so it’s a nice, fresh start.
keen to drop reddit altogether even though I literally only visit /r/brisbane
yeh /r/brisbane was 90% of why i stuck around…the discord is doing a good job of scratching the itch at least :)
I try my best to not use apps purely because of how readily accessible they are.
because I have to use safari to view this, it limits me somewhat otherwise I spend way too much time on socials
Anyone from Brisbane should have a healthy intolerance of bullshit, its in our DNA, so fuck spez.
Fuck Spaz!!!
aye, the former mod of r/jailbait can have his cardboard castle and paper crown - let’s build something better
and the mods of r/australia can sit in the hole that they dug too
SALUT, KANGA !!! nice to meet ya
Ayy, Kanga’s here! I know you are but what am I…
I guess our daily threads are dead now without an automod. How am I supposed to gripe about my elbow fracture issues now? ;)
we’ll be looking swanky over here thats for sure mate ;) come join us in the discord if you’re not already …amazed by the response was expecting 20-30 at most we’ve almost got 150! in 24 hours!
Another refugee checking in!
I can’t fuck spez, I haven’t been jailbait for like 25 years
The journey was horrible, the destination uncertain but I made it here, I don’t know if I’ll survive.
Fuck spez! :)
Ok, I’ve just discovered that the admin of this Fediverse instance (Aussie Zone) is an immature tyrant and an absolutely terrible moderator. So this is where my participation here ends, and I will have to find a better refuge than this one.
If you want to see why I came to the above conclusion, you can review my participation in an Australia thread here :
https://aussie.zone/comment/134607
I’m fine with ppl who disagree with the viewpoint I was expressing in that thread, but this instance obviously isn’t a place that allows any semblance of free speech.
(Note: I had to sign up to another instance to post this here, as the admin has banned my account in this instance. And with them being such a tyrant, this comment will probably be quickly disappeared too, if they have the power to do that. Just wanted to warn others for however long it gets to remain here.)
Dude you were an obvious troll. You got banned because you were being an obvious troll, got called out for it, and made it clear you were going to continue trolling.
I saw your other comment calling me a troll Zagorath and was disappointed. I’m quite clearly not trolling in that thread, I am expressing my viewpiont (and one that is shared by the majority of the world, as I directly addressed in that comment).
I’ve been aware of some of your, as I see it, immature political takes for some time on reddit. That’s fine and in other contexts I’ve enjoyed interacting with you (we even did a bit of that here today under a submission of yours). Everyone can have their own views and their right to have those political views should be respected. But calling people whose views you don’t agree with ‘trolls’ is highly immature. And banning them (or calling for them to be banned) for those views is much worse. Again, I was expressing my viewpoint in that thread, not trolling, and it is quite clear that I genuinely hold that viewpoint, as any review of my comment history on reddit will show.
The wording you used was trolling. If you were genuine in trying to change minds, you’d use less inflamatory language.
Bye again.
Pretending a country waging a war of aggression on another sovereign country is the good guy is troll behaviour.
Pretending a country threatening the security of another sovereign country through aggressive posturing and illegally sending jets into their airspace without permission is doing nothing wrong (to say nothing of the ridiculous maritime claims that infringe on the EEZs of no fewer than 6 other countries) is troll behaviour.
Making claims that “the majority of the world” believes your ridiculous claims is trolling. I’ll just go ask my Taiwanese and Vietnamese friends what they think, shall I?
Unironically claiming that because other countries state that Russia is in the right for their offensive war in Ukraine without critically assessing those supporting countries political manoeuvres is trolling
Even if they do that, it will remain visible for any others in the fediverse.
