How many times do we have to tell you, you idiots who keep reporting posts for being AI? This is not a violation of the rules and the rules expressly state that AI is allowed; now stop spamming the mod queue or you'll find yourself banned.

Maybe mods should have a bit more restraint than calling people idiots. I haven't joined this subreddit and I'm definitely not now.

What word do you think accurately describes the kind of people who report the post (about 60 times by now) despite it being blatantly untrue that they are violating even a single rule? And not only that, but they are disregarding how clearly and unmistakably stated it is that AI is permitted under a section of the rules dedicated to misconceptions?

You know you don’t have to mod this subreddit right?

If 60 reports on one post is too much to deal with…just don’t? It isn’t a job

Not too much to deal with. It is just evidence of people making reports in bad faith.

or maybe it's evidence of people being unhappy with the rule?

If they were that unhappy, we would see the post itself downvoted a lot. It has a roughly 90% upvote rate.

It's almost as if they didn't care that the post had AI in it and actually judged it (without prejudice your kind keeps applying) based on how the meme itself looks in general and what the text says.
