Can we discuss Rule 7? (self.Seattle)

gmtnlRavenna が 投稿x2

I'm curious how the community feels about this relatively new rule. I ask because many subs on Reddit exist in networks and benefit from different approaches and viewpoints on a shared set of issues.

Without mentioning any specific subs (which of course might violate the rule), it's not clear to me what subs should be covered. Is a special-interest Seattle sub 'competing', e.g. a sub about biking in Seattle? What about a sub for a region inclusive of Seattle, e.g. Washington or Cascadia? What about another general interest Seattle sub with a different set of rules/approach to Seattle issues? I can see an argument for all of these being positive additions to a Seattle subreddit network.

Can we discuss Rule 7?

Highly unlikely.

[–]Drunky_Brewster 59ポイント60ポイント  (9子コメント)

Seeing as the Mods are already deleting comments.

[–]MakerGreyTweaker's Junction 43ポイント44ポイント  (5子コメント)

Mods

There's only one.

[–]ChristopherStefanMaple Leaf 27ポイント28ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hmm, new active and friendly mod disappears, new rule goes up.

[–]KUSmurfBallard 18ポイント19ポイント  (2子コメント)

For what it's worth, all the other "mods" on this subreddit that aren't actually alts of our top dog should do something or leave. There is no reason one mod should get all the shit even if he's a loser. The rest of these clowns just sit back and watch it happen.

[–]MakerGreyTweaker's Junction 12ポイント13ポイント  (1子コメント)

It's not like the other mods can do anything. The only mod above careless is hibernator and they're not active on anything. If any of the mods below him tried to speak up he'd remove them. See /u/americanderp and /u/amajorhassle.

[–]KUSmurfBallard 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

I know they can't do anything about it, but they know it's happening. Step down, make your voice heard. People will leave if all the mods start leaving, or change will be made (see: top mod stepping down).

    I wouldn't care. I unsubscribed from this place. Rather hang out in subs that aren't a toxic moderators private fiefdom.

    [–]drrew76 276ポイント277ポイント  (21子コメント)

    It's absurd and ripe for abuse, not that these mods would ever abuse their role.

    What the hell is a "competing subreddit"? This isn't a competition, it's a message board. A message board with built in voting and subscription functions that allow readers to voice their interest or displeasure. A heavy handed mod presence just is not needed.

    [–]joe5joe7 51ポイント52ポイント  (0子コメント)

    I agree, there's no reason you can't have two subreddit for similar things. And trying to quench competition is abhorrent

    [–]MarquettePharmSunset Hill 21ポイント22ポイント  (1子コメント)

    And what is considered a "promotion"? It seems like even talking about another sub will have you banned.

    [–]KitsapDadPoulsbo 38ポイント39ポイント  (0子コメント)

    You have been banned from r/pyongyong. I mean r/seattle.

    [–]my_lucid_nightmareCapitol Hill 79ポイント80ポイント  (6子コメント)

    It's almost as though the mod team has no idea what The Streisand Effect is. By promoting "Rule 7" you're making it obvious that there's other Seattle-based subreddits out there. And in turn making it clear that if there's a reason to leave here, you have options.

    It also seems a bit petty to put up a flag about "competing" subreddits. There's no competition I'm aware of. Some users of reddit from Seattle got the idea they'd like another option, and they made it. That typically isn't a crime in most places that I'm aware of. I don't quite understand why it would be seen as "competing," I'm usually in favor of more competition.

    [–]PolynyaWallingford 13ポイント14ポイント  (0子コメント)

    That's exactly what happened with me. I got curious what happened with our cool locally-drawn Snoo (I know, sooooo hipster of me), went down the rabbit hole, and wound up on the "competition," which is where many of the former regulars on this subreddit migrated to.

    [–]bothunterFirst Hill 23ポイント24ポイント  (2子コメント)

    Yeah, I'm surprised that careless hasn't removed this post altogether.

    It's competing in the sense that someone's personal financial gain is tied to this sub's traffic - so cutting into that traffic is kinda like competition.

      I like Rule 7.

      In the past, any mention of "competing" subs was quickly removed. Now there's a constant reminder on the side of my page that if I disagree with the moderation in this sub, other Seattle-specific subs are an option.

      [–]wawupdipgu 32ポイント33ポイント  (10子コメント)

      It's been a "secret" bannable offense for awhile. At least now it's been made explicit, so everyone can see just how petty the moderation policies are.

      [–]DoNotReplyBarbie 20ポイント21ポイント  (9子コメント)

      It doesn't even stop there! If the butthurt is great enough, they'll have an admin investigate your account so you can be banned from Reddit!

      [–]HolyPoesLaw 33ポイント34ポイント  (0子コメント)

      The problem is that there are certain people that want to use this subreddit to promote their own personal businesses, like AirBnB or property management and are allowed to the exclusion of others. They don't want competition; they want a captured market so they don't want any mention of other subreddits. Mentioning those might lead to a loss of market if this subreddit loses members.

      [–]exusWest Seattle 14ポイント15ポイント  (1子コメント)

      The mods of this sub are a shitty bunch with a bit of a power trip. Too bad they've camped out the obvious r/Seattle subreddit. Wouldn't want anybody expecting a wealth of Seattle news from such a simply named subreddit to learn about anywhere else with a different opinion to the mods.

      Just because it's a rule doesn't mean it isn't a shitty rule and idea.

      It's more about don't mention those "other" Seattle subreddits that have a legitimate bone to pick with the heavy handed mod team here than it is something like r/Cascadia or r/Portland. Now instead of a shadow ban its enforceable by the mod team.

      [–]raevnos 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

      Is there more than one active mod left here?

      [–]Ziac45 24ポイント25ポイント  (2子コメント)

      I really don't understand why /u/careless hasn't just stepped down. It seems the response is always that this is just a vocal minority complaining about the rules it would still benefit the sub for him to step down. There is little to gain in moderating this sub, and I am sure someone else would willingly take over. The community doesn't seem to like his moderation style but he is insistent on staying on for some reason.

      Just give it up already, by remaining a mod he has just created constant drama in here for no reason. People linking to other Seattle subs should not be an issue, and if he would step down he no longer has any real reason to complain about the notoriety and hate he gets.

          Those are strictly prohibited. See the mods are douchebags, and insecure, so people are trying to flee and congregate someplace else. But the mods don't want to loose their power and control, so they use censorship to silence the voices and topics they don't like.

          By the time you get to that point, it's time to take a step back and realise you've lost it already. You've lost the trust, lost the respect and by extension lost the power. Like a dying villain in a cheesy spaghetti western, you've already been fatally shot and you're just staggering from side to side, knocking over furniture trying to extract the last bit of attention for the role.

          I spent a year teaching English in China. One of the topics they had me teach was the difference between Chinese and American ways of referring to cities. Addressing a letter in China, for example, you can just put "Beijing" on the envelope. I had to explain how in the US you can't just address an envelope with "Los Angeles", but have to put "Los Angeles, CA".

            Your comment was removed because you linked to a site to view the removed comments. This comment that I am replying to now I also going to be removed because you shared a link to view the removed comments.

            Most mod teams of any subreddit on reddit will remove a comment that links to a way to view removed comments.

            A number of "adjacent" subreddits like /r/Mariners, /r/Seahawks, /r/Washington, and a number of other subreddits here on the official /r/Seattle wiki all link to what I guess are "competing" subreddits.

            At this rate, the only people left in this /r/ will be people looking to visit Seattle. Which I suppose would benefit anyone looking to profit off of them. Good luck getting good advice from people who actually live here and aren't looking to make a buck tho.

            [–]LockeSteerpike 7ポイント8ポイント  (5子コメント)

            It's phrased awkwardly. It frames the rule as if the mods think they can stop us creating competitive subreddits, when they have zero power over that.

            It's clearly talking about advertising other subreddits, which maybe was a problem? But it's going to continue to come off as insecure and afraid of competition.

            [–]bothunterFirst Hill 12ポイント13ポイント  (2子コメント)

            I don't mind it. Maybe a weekly or monthly "Pimp my Seattle Subreddit" sticky thread would be nice though.

            I could do without random subs trying to get me to check them out in their own threads. If they come up naturally in comments that's all good, though.

            You get banned if you mention them in thread comments.

            Well that's kinda dumb.

            Hence the angst in this thread.

            /u/careless, do you believe the majority of users here are happy with both the rules and the moderation in the subreddit?

            I think this topic has been covered over an over for the past two years. The answer has been pretty consistent.

            My oh my, I know I have a new account but let me dust off my centuries old history book that contains an account of /r/seattle that I've catalogued ever since... uh... two minutes ago... but really, those are just small details my child, small details.

            Once upon a time, when Seattle was founded, there was a man who rolled logs down skid row - he was a man who moderated the first ever Seattle public forum. He was unfairly treated by another man who gave a most uncouth finger gesture imaginable at the time and was telegraphed the most obscene words that one could ever read! but Alas, it was all because he made a pass at a young lass. One man even rode their horse beside His Person! What a dolt!

            From my understanding, he had fathered several children, and their children birthed many other children, and at the tail end of this large family was a man who we all now know is doing the same thing his great-great-grandfather did back in the 1800's. Godspeed! Documenting one's behavior (I believe it's called 'doxxing' in modern parlance) is unacceptable! We demand rule 7!

            I'm not a fan of it at all, because there aren't really other "competing" subreddits. Even if there are I don't see why it matters unless population and views are central concerns, which is only true if this subreddit is being used to drive some sort of revenue stream or something. It isn't like subreddits are a radio button and you can only sub to /r/seattle or /r/thatotherseattle, but not both.

            In short, it's a non-issue unless the allegations regarding certain mods are true. The fact that it is there at all is pretty damning.

            it says that's if you want to promote another sub. you could mention one but i think explicitly telling people to go somewhere else is against it?

            [–]BigCitySlicker 36ポイント37ポイント  (15子コメント)

            If you even mention the other "competing" sub which a certain North Capitol Hill moderator has a beef with he will ban you from this sub.

            Edit: Oh yeah, if you mention said moderators handle your comment will be deleted.

            a certain North Capitol Hill moderator

            Seems careless to identify him like that...

            Really? Careless is that paranoid now?

            Now?

            This would be a new level. My above comment was really to see if the automod was pinging comments with the word "careless" in it or if he was only deleting mentions with the "/u/" prefix.

              I thought he was just deleting comments that mentioned /u/careless.

              Yeah how are you not banned from here? You're part of that Illuminati Seattle subreddit.

              I have no idea, and it's not like I hold my tongue around here, though I haven't spent as much time here recently since there are plenty of other great Seattle subreddits that aren't controlled by the North Capitol Hill version of Pol Pot.

                Sure!

                I was going to wait until the new CSS sticky post was at least a week old before removing it and creating a post like this, but this is cool too.

                The issue is that a bunch of folks have been promoting their sub by making comments like, "This sub sucks, you should go to this one instead."

                The problem here is that the sub these folks are advertising is moderated by current and former mods of a sub where my personal information has been posted so many times I have lost count (the most recent occurrence of this was just a couple of weeks ago). These are not nice people.

                So in response to their new sub being disallowed here, these folks create a plethora of new Seattle subs. And then create throwaway accounts to promote them on this sub.

                Then, when the above objections are raised, these folks create new accounts and use these new accounts to create new subs. Then these folks ask if they can promote their new sub on this one.

                It's a never-ending spiral of obnoxious sub promotion, and while promoting a sub falls squarely under rule #6, I felt it was worthwhile to make an explicit rule about it - because of the ridiculous activities of these folks.
