@Object@Speculater I want to try to understand this better. What’s a ‘bad post’, and who decides what that is? It sounds arbitrary from how you say it, but there must be some kind of logic to any enforceable rule.
I certainly understand the example of Luigi (even if I disagree with it), but what’s the broader rule in effect here?
I don’t assume it’s not stupid, mind you. Reddit’s been doing stupid things for awhile now.
The Reddit admins, of course. They say that upvoting contents that violates their policy can get your account flagged, and Luigi posts happen to fall under “violence”.
So yeah, it isn’t completely arbitrary, but ultimately vague.
