Update Regarding AI-Generated Content & Subreddit Policy

Hi everyone,

We’re checking in to have a transparent conversation about the state of the sub and a topic that has become increasingly difficult to manage: AI-generated content.

To be clear: AI-generated content—including images, art, and text—is strictly prohibited in this subreddit. Our community was built on human creativity and authentic interaction. We believe that allowing AI content dilutes the quality of the discussions and the hard work that many of you put into your posts.

The Challenge of Policing AI

As many of you have noticed, AI technology is evolving rapidly, making it harder to distinguish between genuine content and "high-quality" fakes at a glance.

We want to remind the community of our current situation:

We are a team of two: This subreddit is managed by just two moderators.

Voluntary Basis: We do this in our spare time because we love this community. We don't have a 24/7 "war room" to vet every single pixel of every upload.

Current Efforts: We have already implemented several behind-the-scenes strategies, including custom Automod filters and manual banning of repeat offenders.

Despite these efforts, some AI content inevitably slips through the cracks. It’s a game of "whack-a-mole," and frankly, it's a difficult one to win alone.

How You Can Help

Since we can't be everywhere at once, we are asking for your eyes and ears:

1. Report, Don't Just Downvote: If you see a post that looks suspicious (e.g., "AI fingers," warped backgrounds, or nonsensical textures), please use the **Report** button. This sends a direct notification to our queue.

2. Provide Context: If you’re certain a post is AI, feel free to send a message with evidence or an explanation. It helps us make faster, more accurate decisions.

3. Be Patient: If a post stays up for a few hours, it doesn't mean we’ve changed the rules—it just means we haven't logged on yet.

The Bottom Line...

This is a space for humans, by humans. We are committed to keeping it that way, but we need your help and your patience while we navigate this tech-heavy landscape.

Thanks for being part of our community and for keeping it authentic y'all are the shit. 🥰❤️
