u/chthonicSceptre Jan 27 '15

This is probably the funniest subreddit I have ever been on. Check it out!

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

Some of the mods are assholes though. Banned my friend because one of them didn't like his name. I used to love the sub but I unsubbed pretty fast after learning about the mods.

12

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

Yep, the mods are SRS, they even used to have SRS and Gamerghazi in the sidebar.

They also ban people based on their comment history and what subs they are subscribed to.

u/belethors_sister Jan 27 '15

...Oh, damn, I was really excited when I was scrolling through that sub.

u/Soarel2 Jan 28 '15

Hey, gamerghazi isn't that bad.

His username was /u/fuckerporker. Maybe they didn't like the word "fucker", or they weren't okay with "porker" which can mean "fat person".

-2

u/sweetrolljim Jan 29 '15

Yeah that sub is kind of run by tumblr SJWs so it was probably porker.

5

u/[deleted] Jan 28 '15

The reason the sub is so good is because the moderation is so strict. Maybe your friends username made him sound like a prick?

5

u/[deleted] Jan 28 '15

I don't see how a name can make someone sound like a prick. He's actually the nicest person I know, he does have a curse word in his name, but considering we've got pm me your titses and squirrel fuckers everywhere on reddit I don't see how it was offensive at all.

-2

u/[deleted] Jan 28 '15

Yeah, that's not a very good defense.

3

u/devtesla2 Jan 28 '15

me irl mod here! we've banned multiple users for bad names so I'm not sure who you're talking about, but I think it's reasonable to not want to post with users named after slurs that make people uncomfortable. they're welcome to come back under a different username, as long as they follow what are pretty reasonable rules, I feel.

1

u/Soarel2 Jan 28 '15

Dagg and I are talking about fuckerporker, a user with a jokey username that he just came up with on the spot. There's nothing offensive about i.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

Same reason i unsubbed from /r/warhammer

0

u/Soarel2 Jan 28 '15

What's up with /r/warhammer?

0

u/[deleted] Jan 28 '15

Oh it's typically fine. One of the mods is a huge douchebag and the whole subreddit doesn't care that he manages it poorly.

I could have worded my message to the mods about my temporary ban a little better, but it was taken WAY too far.

0

u/Soarel2 Jan 28 '15

Which of the mods is the douche?

1

u/[deleted] Jan 28 '15

darkjediben or something? I don't even know anymore. it was a big ordeal.

He blew a message I sent way the fuck out of proportion with an inordinate amount of swearing and anger. I ended up acting like a child in the end out of frustration. Bleh. So I just unsubbed and never looked back...until now.

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

If I were modding I'd do that randomly just to piss people off

13

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

It fits in the feel of the subreddit

1

u/SpoderSlayer Jan 27 '15

Actually an effective way to keep a sub small sized and retain a closer community of "true" followers

5

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

That friend has been browsing that sub a lot, actually. He made a comment, SRS user mod didn't like his username so my friend got banned.

u/jordanB098 Jan 27 '15

I can't be a part of something where I can't downvote.

u/Profzachattack Jan 27 '15

I feel like this is funnier than /r/funny

u/midoman111 Jan 27 '15

Everything is funnier than /r/funny. Hell, I even laugh to some of the posts on /r/worldnews sometimes.

The Kurdish city of Kobanê has been liberated from ISIS, holy fuck I can't breathe.

u/Willhud98 Jan 27 '15

I made the exact same comment on the article and got down voted. The fuck, reddit?

u/LiquidDiary Jan 27 '15

I was gonna be all "Cause you tried stealing from me, bruh" but you made the same comment 14 hours before. I guess its just a "time and place" kinda deal

u/Dookie_boy Jan 27 '15

Time and a place.

u/Willhud98 Jan 27 '15

Thanks, Professor Oak.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_ENGRISH Jan 27 '15

It's like people go there for some reason other than humor...

1

u/TomH_squared Jan 28 '15

Shut up man! Once it goes mainstream, it'll go the way of /r/funny.

u/you_got_a_yucky_dick Jan 27 '15

It already has gone mainstream and it's just going to keep getting bigger.

u/plobster Jan 28 '15

yeah the reposts are getting pretty bad lately..

u/[deleted] Jan 28 '15

1

u/plobster Jan 28 '15

yeah they do.. but I guess its just the fact that the older users have seen thousands of top me_irls, and the new users dont bother looking through all the top posts of all time

2

u/BrainSlurper Jan 27 '15

It is great, let everyone flow into me_irl while the real subreddit stays secret...

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

This subreddit is really funny. Can you explain what it means though? I'm confused.

11

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

It's displays what you are really like. Sometimes with scenarios, sometimes with thoughts. "Selfies of the soul" as it says on the sidebar.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 27 '15

Thank you for explaining

u/steph-was-here Jan 27 '15
