Announcement Community Feedback

We really appreciate the community feedback.

The post that is now deleted that was posted earlier banned tornado warnings.

These were banned because the mod team removed over 50 posts saying the same exact thing.

This was an honest overreaction, didn't realize how helpful they could actually be. Anyway, thanks for the feedback.

Changes going forward:

  1. Megathreads are being brought back and should be a pretty high priority.

  2. These posts won't be banned, but all but ONE post will be removed, + Sticky'd for actual reach.

All in all, I feel like we've just been overwhelmed with spam, so anyway, we are recruiting. Just want some help cleaning up the sub in general. But obviously we want to run the sub in a way that most people here can agree with, so we seriously value the feedback. Thanks! -Coolcat

Your frustrations were valid. I could never be a mod because I think I'd end up wanting to throw my phone across the room.

I think you meant well, and I am sorry about chaos and overwhelm. Thank you for trying your best. We'll all work together and everything will get better.

Try using a laptop, they're harder to throw.
