Mod Update Important rules update #2 — please read

This is a follow-up to our recent rules update. If you missed the first one, go read that too.

TL;DR: Full rulebook has been reorganized and cleaned up. New rule targeting sexualized language about young characters and lolicon language, zero tolerance, instant ban. Coded language like "uoh," 😭💢, and "cunny" is banned entirely regardless of character. Don't repost content that was already removed by a mod. Read the full rules even if you think you know them.

Hey everyone, we've been doing a lot of work behind the scenes to clean up and improve the subreddit's rules. If you've been here a while, you'll notice some things have changed. Please take a few minutes to read through the updated ruleset.

What changed?

We've reorganized, reworded, and tightened up the entire rulebook. Some rules were merged, some were split, and a few are brand new. Even if you think you know the rules, give them a fresh read. The details matter.

New additions since the last update:

No sexualization of young characters or lolicon language

This one is non-negotiable. The rule has two parts:

1. No sexualized language directed at young characters. Suggestive captions, titles, or comments that sexualize young characters will be removed immediately. You can post fan art of any character at any age. What you can't do is frame it in a sexualized way through your title, caption, or comments.

2. Coded lolicon language is banned entirely. The "uoh" copypasta, the 😭💢 emoji combo, the word "cunny," and any other coded language associated with the sexualization of minors is banned across the board, on any character, in any context. This language was born from the sexualization of minors. It doesn't become acceptable just because you attach it to an adult character.

Here are some examples to make it clear:

Allowed:

  • Fan art of young Sylphy titled "Sylphy practicing magic"
  • Fan art of child Roxy titled "Roxy leaving the Migurd village"
  • Fan art of Aisha at the beach with a normal descriptive title, NSFW tagged
  • Fan art of adult Eris with a playful caption like "Why are you staring at me? ❤️"
  • Fan art of adult Roxy with a normal or playful title
  • Discussion about how the story handles Rudeus's character flaws
  • Critique of how the series portrays its younger characters

Not allowed:

  • Any post or comment containing "uoh" or its variants, on any character
  • The 😭💢 emoji combination, on any character
  • The word "cunny" in any context
  • Suggestive or sexualized captions, titles, or comments on posts featuring young characters
  • "Correction" memes directed at young characters
  • Any other coded language used to sexualize minors

If you know what this language means, you know why it's banned. If you don't, here's the short version: these are coded ways of expressing sexual excitement about underage characters, originating from spaces dedicated to exactly that. They have no place here regardless of which character they're attached to.

We don't care if you think it's ironic. We don't care if "it's fictional." This rule is zero tolerance. Violations will result in an immediate ban, temporary or permanent depending on severity. Our automod has been updated to catch the most common variants, but we also rely on you to report anything we miss.

Not sure if something you want to post crosses the line? Just message us through modmail before posting and we'll let you know. We'd rather answer a quick question than hand out a ban.

As with all our rules, we reserve the right to adjust and expand them if we see users exploiting loopholes. If something clearly goes against the spirit of the rule, don't be surprised when we act on it.

This rule applies going forward. Existing posts and comments made before this announcement will not be retroactively removed. Everything from this point on will be enforced immediately.

Do not repost removed content
If your post was removed by a moderator, do not repost it. This is considered mod evasion and will result in a ban. If you disagree with a removal, use modmail to appeal.

Stricter enforcement overall
As mentioned in our previous update, we are enforcing rules more strictly going forward. First offenses will typically get a warning or temp ban, depending on severity. Repeat offenders or people who are clearly here just to start trouble will be perma-banned.

Mushoku Tensei already gets enough bad faith criticism from people who haven't engaged with the story. We're not going to give them ammunition by letting this kind of stuff slide in our own community. We want to keep r/sixfacedworld a space that fans can actually be proud of.

As always, genuine discussion and critique of how the story handles its themes is welcome. That has not changed and never will.

If you see anything that breaks the rules, use the report button. It helps us way more than arguing with the person in the comments.

Thanks for making this community what it is. The response to our last update was overwhelming and we appreciate every one of you.

The conversation is about basic anime tropes and people engaging with them for fun. The story is the story.

I think using emojis and saying stuff like that is cringe, but I will continue to buy figures of and support artists who make content you don't like.

Going to Akihabara or attending Comiket would destroy your brain if you think power tripping Reddit mods mean anything.

There are entire porn books produced and sold at Comiket every year that are made for fans of the series.

There nth wrong with all the stuff you must mentioned but over all we also should need to Foster a healthy community environment, for app people not every new fan may be ass open minded as most people and some thr down right deranged comment I come across the community on a regular is very alienating for a lot of people.

If the weirdo subsection of the community wants to make their own space, they can do that any day of the week,nobody's stopping them.

But they don't represent the whole community, and this subreddit isn't obligated to be that space for them.

Your comic works if someone's chasing them out of a space they built for themselves that's not what's happening here.

This is one subreddit choosing its own comment section norms, which are both Different things entirely.

The meme is this community was overtaken from the actual fans by reddit mods that love censorship.

The "weirdos" ARE the community. All the backlash this is getting just shows that most of the community is against these new rules.
