ShortThis Subreddit Is Retiring. (self.LetsNotMeet)

DragonShiryu2Boring Flair が 投稿 - stickied post

Hello everyone.

Today I come with a heavy heart and a bad message. I have chosen to retire /r/LetsNotMeet.

The administration of Reddit and the CEO in particular are operating in ways I no longer agree with. Their selective censorship of free speech and their own breaking of rules on multiple occasions is ridiculous and down right wrong and I will no longer let ad revenue from my subreddit line the pockets of liars and hypocrites.

This subreddit has been my own personal child over the past years and it is almost as old as my user account. I loved it as it's grown and as it has evolved. We've been through highs and lows, but this is the lowest point - of not just LNM but of Reddit as a whole.

To the old mod team - thank you for everything and sticking up with my shit over the past years. I could not have done it without you.

To the community - you guys are the bread and butter of this place. Thank you for coming along for the ride; and what a ride it's been.

Yes, this is 100% inspired by the acts of the mod of /r/CrappyDesign. I stand with him and his choice, and am joining him in telling reddit we've had enough.

LetsNotMeet will close at 10:00PM MST tonight. Thank you all.

-Dragon

This is bullshit. Why not just step down instead of retiring a sub that will go unnoticed and not help the cause in anyway

[–]Voiddreamer [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Well damn. I've known this place for less than a week. :(

I'm seriously going to miss this sub. The sad thing is, this is only going to punish the loyal readers and subscribers. The admins and Ellen Pao won't care, it doesn't really affect them. Are you going to delete the sub, because it's such a shame to think of the previously uploaded stories being deleted.

Hey guys! I've started /r/letsnevermeet

Hopefully enough people will see this and we can continue posting our stories there.

You're completely correct, shutting down this small community will have no effect other then punishing those of us who have done nothing to deserve it.

Are all the previously posted stories on lets not meet going to disappear then? Does anyone know? Because I don't want to never be able to read The Smiling Man again. And letsnevermeet is a great idea :)

I think they're just shutting down posting, hopefully the old stories will remain! Please spread the word of /r/letsnevermeet I want this community to continue on!

Thank you! I'm working on writing up a sidebar and establishing rules.

Maybe one of us with enough time can start up a clone of this sub.

This is a bunch of fucking bullshit. It sounds like this was a unilateral decision on OPs part. Did you even consult the other mods OP? What did they say? You're really going to torpedo this place in defiance of the admins and Pao? It's like a monk setting himself on fire in protest - in the end, no one important gives a shit about the monk. The world still spins, and you just fucked over your entire family for nothing. Great, now we are going to have to emigrate to a new sub that no one knows about and will have little content. Just relinquish power and wash your hands of it, don't set us on fire too.

Well this blows.

This sucks so much. There are some of the creepiest stories ever on here & I haven't even gotten a chance to read them all... Loved this subreddit more than /r/nosleep. :(

[–]SmokinAces998 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I just found this subreddit and I'm very sad to see it go...I know its helped people and I urge you to reconsider. Doing this act of protest is noble, but it won't change a thing besides us losing...everything

Fuck bro I just spent 30 minutes typing out a post and submitted it to find nothing there. Someone let me know when a sister sub opens

I love this subreddit. I shamelessly have read almost every story. It has taken me months. I will miss it greatly.

[–]miskifriski [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

This doesn't help the case in any way imo but it's your choice so RIP LNM
