ABOUT

This is a "serious" sub for honest discussion about Admin and Moderator bias and abuse of power. While we are advocates of free speech, the following rules will be put in place to maintain quality in this subreddit:

IMPORTANT NOTE

Reddit has reached the depressing point where generic subreddit bans are so commonplace that they are barely newsworthy anymore. In the interests of post quality control, we maintain the right to remove posts that are simply about such bans and/or modmail mutings. Please don't post such threads unless it's something absolutely extraordinary.

RULES

SUBREDDIT CANCER™

What is and isn't SubredditCancer™?
(Make sure you read and understand this post before posting or complaining, because we will assume you are familiar with the basics of it.)

FREE SPEECH

Say what you want. Use any language you want.
Don't think that having the freedom to speak your mind means that you can go off-topic.
We will enforce our theme here.

META

Meta posts and complaints about moderation decisions, deletions, moderators, bans and other users are to be submitted to /r/SRC_Meta.
If you post such topics in here expect them to be deleted.

HOW TO LEAK

MODERATION

In the interests of transparency we have a Moderation Log.
If you are interested in using a Public Modlog in your subreddit, more information can be found in /r/publicmodlogs.

Well...I'm sure many of you know /r/shitredditsays to be a dark place. But there are many who don't know the horrifying shit that sub does (The admins know it, but ignore it, calling over /u/krispykrackers and /u/sporkicide, admins who defended that sub, to come over and read this post. )
Let's get started, shall we?
(I don't even know how to begin this :/ )

RECENT DOXXINGS

As we all know CMW, former mod of the_donald deleted his account, following which one(or several, not entirely sure) srs users came out and said that they were responsible for 'taking him down'. However, it didn't stop there. The 'Fempire Action Squad'(that's what the SRS and it's affiliates call themselves) released this, an apparent message that openly stated that doxxing lead to the removal of CWM's account AND that they were going to start taking over 'hate' subreddits(they consider us one). /r/fittofat has already been taken over. Here's proof of them getting CWM to delete his account.
Well that's just the recent stuff. A few years back , srs doxxed several prominent gamergaters/people who supported the movement. Here's proof. They even did this to OUR MILO. SRS is also prominent(actually not prominent, admins decided that hating fat people was more of a crime than doxxing) for doxxing and sending harassing emails to mods of r/antisrs. Here's just one example of the types of email they received. As of last year, I think there have been four antisrs mods who have been doxxed. Next, I'm sure you all know of the VA controversy, and how SRS members doxxed, him, giving his info to some Gawker 'journalist'(I don't think that people who write for Buzzfeed and Gawker have a right to be considered as journalists). Well, it was good to see reddit atleast do something in retaliation(Yishan called for a sitewide ban on gawker links). But never the less, SRS remained, only to continue with their doxxing. Who knows who's next? Maybe me. Maybe you. Eitherway, the admins don't give a rat's ass.
(Much of my references for this 'SRS and doxxing' section was from a brilliant KIA post posted a couple of days back. If i link it out here, the post gets deleted, so if you want a link, pm me, or it's just on the front page of KIA rn).

ADMIN DOUBLE STANDARDS

As many of us have noticed, SRS have kept their 'give gold' option off(css tweaks). There was a post on r/blackout2015, asking for mods of all subs to tweeak their css, to hide the 'give gold' feature. Some guy pointed out that this would go against Reddit's TOS. An admin came and CONFIRMED THIS (While srs remains unbanned for breaking a rule). Just so you know, that feature is still kept 'off'. Here's proof.
I've heard that FPH was banned for apparently doxxing imgur mods. So srs not getting banned for their doxxing is another double standard.

BRIGADING

Well they're not new to this. They banned submitting np links because they found it 'annoying' and 'pointless'. Just yesterday my shitpost regarding SRS went from 3100 to 2920 and it's currently sitting on 2997 points. That might seem a bit of a coincidence? After all centipedes can definitely love SRS as well. Well then, here's more proof. That comment went from 20 to -2 points. Here's more. There was also that time when an SRS user got banned from r/jokes, only to get his/her massive army to downvote brigade the sub. And again, let us remember that the creator of SRS has said that SRS deserves to be banned.

MORE STUFF

SRS users pushed a man to commit suicide. This was later proven to be a hoax, however the comments by the users with the words of encouragements still exist as of today.
Phew...that was long. If you have more stuff, tell me and I'll keep adding it. Pinging /u/spez as I've heard that you support not banning r/shitredditsays. As the KIA post pointed out, When will something be done about this community that exists solely to annoy other Redditors and generally make Reddit worse for everyone else?

They've been exposed countless times, the admins don't give a shit. All of the SJW subreddits are protected by the admins.
[–]NetPotionNr9 51 points52 points53 points  (0 children)
Reddit HQ is in SF, a hive of mentally deranged SJWs that are totally and utterly disconnected from reality. They really think, in their sanctimonious and self-righteous indignation that they are somehow going to push against reality so hard and long until it bends to their will. They lack the foresight that what they are doing is invariably going to lead to the demise of Reddit on account that they are injecting themselves into things they have no business or cause being involved in. They confuse what Reddit is by seeing it as a tool for authoritarian liberal radical social revolution and manipulation against the will of people, not the platform for social discussion and civil society that it could be.
e: corrections
[–]Datastream 50 points51 points52 points  (18 children)
This. Actions are condoned by the admins. Don't like it? Then leave reddit.
[–]finalaccountdown 39 points40 points41 points  (9 children)
I want to leave reddit, believe me. but I like talking to you guys, even if I'm arguing.
there's a reason even the chans have started using this site, it's really the best site available to talk to people all over the world. and that's both awesome and amazing.
but if an acceptable alternative ever comes up, I'm gone. just because I kind of liked the level of discourse from when this site was first invented (yes I shitpost all the time. Still.) and yes I've tried some current alternatives, and they're not bad. but this site is still the best for this kind of thing. so here I sit, broken hearted, wanting bantz just not retarded.
[–]Datastream 6 points7 points8 points  (8 children)
Go to voat then. Pretty much the same but less people.
[–]ELI5_MODS_SUCK_ASS 17 points18 points19 points  (5 children)
Voat sucks in the same way reddit does now, but in a different way. Reddit is left wing and Voat is Right Wing+conspiracy. Reddit is like a bunch of 15 year old kids on a school bus talking about their 2deep4u ideas and how they tried acid for the first time and how they really "Get it, man" and you don't unless you've tried it. You can deal with it because you know they're just kind of ignorant and naive. Voat is like your 55 year old uncle who comes over for Christmas and yells about how we should never let another negro in office and that the Turkey is dry.
Don't get me wrong, thats the worst of both websites. But generally I would still spend my time on reddit if only because there are more specialized subs.
[–]srcs 9 points10 points11 points  (0 children)
except that my uncle is right. america is for white people, everyone else can get ovened.
[–]Datastream -1 points0 points1 point  (1 child)
So it's the same depending on the subreddit you go to.
[–]ELI5_MODS_SUCK_ASS 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
ya basically.
[–]funkmon -1 points0 points1 point  (1 child)
Do you know of any other options?
[–]ELI5_MODS_SUCK_ASS 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Depends on what you're looking for. Some of the 4chan boards are good, more specialized forums are great if you don't mind low population. Other than that there really aren't websites like reddit though in the same design and scope (obviously thinks like Funnyjunk, Iambored, and 9gag exist but they're not quite the same market). Thats why problems like subreddits getting fucked by mods is an issue. Reddit has a growing monopoly of this type of website in the English speaking world as more casual users come onto the website.
Honestly I think theres a point in time where you just have to leave this stuff entirely. I know it's kind of cool when you read a comment by some dude who is like 52 and posts on reddit, but I think theres a point where you just have to say you're out.
[–]finalaccountdown 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)

[–]poly_atheist -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]ArchangelleCryBully 21 points22 points23 points  (7 children)
No, keep documenting it. Sooner or later SRS is going to doxx somebody and one of those nutbags is going to do something violent to the target. We need to be able to demonstrate that the admins were on notice but failed to act, repeatedly.
[–]botchlings 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
Sooner or later SRS is going to doxx somebody and one of those nutbags is going to do something violent to the target.
Possibly, but I think it will be more likely that someone who is doxxed will sue reddit for facilitating it, especially if they can link the doxxers to a sub like SRS.
It won't really matter if they win or lose the lawsuit, the bad press will force reddit to act.
[–]FieldLine 7 points8 points9 points  (5 children)
The goal isn't to bury reddit in a lawsuit. Most people here just want a platform for free speech.
[–]ArchangelleCryBully 18 points19 points20 points  (1 child)
I can appreciate that, but when the admins allow cult members to doxx people for their other cult members, that is a problem. Plus, they only let one side doxx, if the other side did the same, they would be banned in a heartbeat. That is called asymmetric warfare.
[–]CantStumpTheTrump 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
Correct. Force their hands!
[–]kingandyroo 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
I mean, some of us wouldn't complain if it came to that...
[–]xxam925 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
It kind of has to be. Their questionable morality has got be punished in some way or they won't change.
[–]poly_atheist -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
I say bury everyone.
[–]Hangmun 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
Admin will start caring when LE gets involved, which will happen soon.
[–]laiki -1 points0 points1 point  (1 child)
Who is They?
Most of the OP is links to things SRS has clearly nothing to do with. SRS is just not affiliated at all with this "fempire action squad" that apparently claims responsibility for CWM's departure nor are they responsible for the gamergate dox stuff.
And the link to the proof of SRS brigading is misleading and also doesn't have a later post from the same admin saying that SRS does not brigade.
This is like if I were to make an expose of SRC and fill it with links to generic alt-right hate sites.
Great standards of proof guys, you are obviously all very rational.

Could some explain me why this subreddit says admin protect SJWs when a.hatesubreddits says the exact opposite(that admin protect racist and neonazis)? How is this possible?
[–]ButthurtSJWBelow 9 points10 points11 points  (0 children)
Against hate subreddits is ran by a fucking lunatic 75000_tokkul. Plenty of "hate" subreddits have been banned even though Reddit tries to say they are for free speech.
[–]Xemnas81 8 points9 points10 points  (0 children)
Because A.HateSubs IS an SJW sub.
Classing something as 'hate speech' is the regressive left's way to morally justify a purge of it from their ultimate goal, a Great Safe Space. They are afraid of the marketplace of ideas.
[–]ArchangelleCryBully 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
Because anybody they disagree with is a racist neonazi. Once they scream loud enough to get one subreddit banned, the next one they disagree with is the next racist/hate subreddit being protected.

[–]laiki -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
Given that the_donald is still allowed to dominate the frontpage you can't exactly say that reddit is obeying every whim of SRS.
[–]CantStumpTheTrump 52 points53 points54 points  (0 children)
Also remember that they ban coontown and etc, doubled back on their "bastions of free speech" talk, yet an actually dangerous subreddit is allowed because reddit wants to court the far-left types.
Yishan has posted in SRS before agreeing with their politics. Every administrator is a leftist. Every single one. Remember Victoria's replacement using the terminology "mansplaining?"
Reddit is a dangerous propaganda machine. Let's just be thankful that these people are extremely inept.
[–]ELI5_MODS_SUCK_ASS 23 points24 points25 points  (0 children)
Reddit admins just don't give a shit. I always want to come up with some reason why, but I can't. Messaging them, asking them on their AMAs, nothing works. Just vague dodging answers and at best saying "Yeah we want to look into that.". Like it's not a fucking hard mystery to solve.
I think admins are scared to lose their market. That if you have some racist sub out there or anything marginally offensive you'll cut off reddits market of liberal white 15-26 year olds. I don't even mean that in an offensive way, I fall into that bracket to a degree, but it's really cowardly and really fucking stupid to shut down people saying their thoughts on the internet because essentially these mods are bullying the admins into bitch work.
Like there are so many people who would love to volunteer their time and be a mod in a subreddit. But right now we have all these extreme power-users that either don't have a job or work from home or similar and spend their entire days on reddit where modding some sub defines their entire existence. We shouldn't have that. These people are too obsessive, too driven by their own ego and image and desire to "make a difference" on the tiny slice of control they have in their lives.
[–]MajorRollin 32 points33 points34 points  (1 child)
Isn't doxing a violation of Reddit's TOS? I thought it was a bannable offense under the "no harassment" and "no personal and confidential information" rules?
[–]Stregen 38 points39 points40 points  (0 children)
Yeah, but the rules don't apply to SRS.
[–]bastardblaster 22 points23 points24 points  (1 child)
I've heard that FPH was banned for apparently doxxing imgur mods. So srs not getting banned for their doxxing is another double standard.
They took the public pictures of the mods from the "about us" page on imgur and put them into one image with the caption "even the dog is fat" and put it in the sidebar.
Banned.
[–]Frozen_Esper 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Which really was an excuse. We had heard the rumblings of FPH's imminent demise for a while and the SJW subs were doing their best to try and provoke fights so they could whine about how oppressive the place was.
[–]Xer0day 28 points29 points30 points  (3 children)

[–]dukbcaaj[S] 19 points20 points21 points  (2 children)

[–]laiki -2 points-1 points0 points  (1 child)
So top quality that you forgot to mention this admin quote where he talks about srs not being a brigade and instead linked one where he seems to talk about the general case of brigading existing. Did you intend to be misleading?

Not exactly shocking. /u/krispykrackers has ballooned in weight since she started working for reddit. Probably has issues with her image.
[–]Dopebear 5 points6 points7 points  (1 child)
Is there an archive of all of the shit SRS has done? Because every time people call them [SRS and/or admins] up on dodgy actions, a flock of SRS always go "nuh-uh! prove it! we're anti-racist and anti-sexist so if you dislike us you're supporting sexism and racism!" Y'know, the usual.
I mention the archive because people can just show them said archive to slap their faces. Everytime they lie and shit-talk, just archive them.
[–]laiki comment score below threshold-7 points-6 points-5 points  (0 children)
There isn't an archive because by far most (all?) of these supposedly dubious things that SRS is accused of either never happened or were just one-off posts/actions by people without the approval of any of the moderators or without being upvoted etc.
[–]czech_your_republic 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
Nice work, but it's really quite pointless sadly - everyone knows about them blatantly brigading, but the admins just ignore their own rules and keep protecting them for some reason. It's bloody despicable.
[–]invisiblephrend 2 points3 points4 points  (0 children)
it's so surreal that a group of leftist crybabies who are dedicated to bitching about how much they hate reddit can get so much leniency from the admins. just ban these cunts, already.

Fucking scumbags. If SRS gets banned I will be ecstatic.
[–]Madameshithead 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
I think the only way that admins will ban srs is if someone blew up reddit hq, but that's just my opinion.

[–]IrritatingComment 9 points10 points11 points  (0 children)
It would be fantastic if we could just ignore their fanaticism. The problem is that doxxing has tangible consequences. SRS uses people's personal information to cause real world problems for those they disagree with. They are fascist lunatics who care more about their feelings than free speech or civilized discourse.
[–]pm_your_huge_chode 1 point2 points3 points  (6 children)
Metaredditcancers claims were not only false, but the guy got shadowbanned for other reasons.
Other than that, srs sucks ass for reasons we are all aware of. They don't even have to link np anymore which is bullshit.
[–]Xemnas81 6 points7 points8 points  (2 children)
Just because Metaredditcancer was shadow banned for other reasons doesn't make his claims about SRS false. Do you have any proof to falsify his assertions? (I see none in that thread, I read it a few days ago.)
[–]pm_your_huge_chode -3 points-2 points-1 points  (1 child)
Read kijafa, t_dumbsford, and k_lobstah's comments
Tldr: Metareddit only saw half the story. The simpler explaination of the situation is that mods are human and will justifably trust a user that they already mod with to mod another subreddit. This doesn't just happen with srs subs, but every single sub on reddt.
[–]Xemnas81 -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
Interesting, thanks for the tip :)
[–]Nechaev 1 point2 points3 points  (2 children)
Metaredditcancers claims were not only false, but the guy got shadowbanned for other reasons.
I'm not quite sure why you're bringing this up here, but that post you referenced didn't give the whole story. The people involved in this sub weren't really consulted (dumbsford didn't get involved in here until a bit later)
There were several other people involved in /r/metaredditcancer (including myself) who had moderator accounts banned for no good reason.
If they'd wanted to just remove the creator for ban evasion and leave the sub with the other mods it wouldn't have looked nearly as sketchy.
They don't even have to link np anymore which is bullshit.
The problem with NP is that it's just a CSS hack which has no official support from the admins. They never told anybody to use it, but some subreddits adopted it as a gesture of goodwill. For a long while subs like /r/srssucks enforced NP links in the hope that it would be reciprocated on the other side. Eventually it became clear that would never happen without admin coercion. SRS had no intentions of making goodwill gestures and the admins are far too afraid of trouble from SRS to actually make demands of them.
In the end NP was no longer enforced by SRSsucks (or SRC) although SRD still uses it most of the time.
[–]pm_your_huge_chode 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
Sure the banning of the mod accounts sucks but the ootl post and comments gives a much better explanation of the whole srs. Shit reddit says isn't actively trying to take over reddit like lizard people but rather that some of the mods are acquiring some bigger subs by normal methods like applying via application or having connections like every single mod on reddit. Metaredditcancers post comes off a bit too conspiracy like.
[–]Nechaev 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
The idea of a full fledged "conspiracy" is a little simplistic, but there are clearly people on reddit with certain ideologies and agendas and they are more than willing to use reddit's system to take over places they don't approve of and shut them down.
The admins could do things to curtail these kinds of hostile takeovers, but they seem rather apathetic about defending this whole idea of community curated interest groups and so the rot continues to spread.
The idea that people think they are winning arguments and changing opinions by shutting down groups that don't agree with them is perhaps the most pathetic thing, but year after year they keep doing it.
