Can we discuss Rule 7? (self.Seattle)

gmtnlRavenna が 投稿x3

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 80ポイント81ポイント  (19子コメント)

Seeing as the Mods are already deleting comments.

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

    [–]KUSmurfBallard 22ポイント23ポイント  (10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 18ポイント19ポイント  (6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 9ポイント10ポイント  (3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).

    Or just get together and message/email the reddit admins. This documented creep and self-promoter isn't going to win an actual case when Reddit admins notice. He's just bidding his luck.

    The official admin position can be summed up as: "If any theoretically rogue mods aren't breaking content rules in a way that subjects us to potential litigation or liability, we just don't give a flying fuck."

    [–]faye0518 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

    And don't just go inactive, but get their names removed from the mod list.

    Once there's only 1 guy left on the list, it'll be really obvious, even to the casual users, what the supposed problem is.

    [–]drrew76 322ポイント323ポイント  (30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.

    [–]MarquettePharmSunset Hill 30ポイント31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.

    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 16ポイント17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 27ポイント28ポイント  (3子コメント)

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

    [–]defiancecpCapitol Hill 10ポイント11ポイント  (0子コメント)

    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.

    [–]exusWest Seattle 24ポイント25ポイント  (2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 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Is there more than one active mod left here?

    Yeah, zomboi is active too, but he seems to be just toeing the line to avoid getting banhammered.

    [–]HolyPoesLaw 44ポイント45ポイント  (2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.

      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.

      https://www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/wiki/relatedsubreddits

      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 41ポイント42ポイント  (12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.

      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.

          What about another general interest Seattle sub with a different set of rules/approach to Seattle issues?

          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.

          Are the other subs actually pretty good or barren wastelands? If there are any good ones does someone mind pming me? I'm not really a poster here but come to check the news. This mod does seem to be power tripping pretty hard though.

          I'd check out other subs, only bc of this rule. What are the mods worried about? They have me curious.

          Search /r/bestof for seattle in the past week or two. You'll note that /r/seattle is not the majority, at least last I checked.

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

          [–]my_lucid_nightmareCapitol Hill 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

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

          I wish mods hadn't deleted /u/ibafoo's comment. I'm interested in hearing perspectives on the parallels between the increasing censorship in this sub and the state of our city itself.

          What IS rule #7??

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

          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!

          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 13ポイント14ポイント  (2子コメント)

          No. The rule is mentioning other subreddits. /u/tomjoad773 just got banned for making a joke shout out in the comments of this post to a bike related Seattle subreddit

          [–]LockeSteerpike 10ポイント11ポイント  (1子コメント)

          Looks like more than one person is getting banned in this thread.

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

          If you make a comment with r slashy any combination of seattle that's not this seattle you will have your comment removed and you will get a 7 day ban. Try it out, its fun!

          [–]trentsgirCapitol Hill 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

          Really?

          /r/seatlleis the best subreddit ever! Why would anyone link to a different sub?

          [–]spiritofdemosthenes 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

          R/Seattle is the best sub in all of Reddit and the top mod is the best mod to ever moderate anything ever! I don't appreciate all you naysayers.

          [–]nonstopflux 5ポイント6ポイント  (3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.

          [–]Cadoc7Westlake 18ポイント19ポイント  (2子コメント)

          You get banned if you mention them in thread comments.

          [–]nonstopflux 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

          Well that's kinda dumb.

          [–]Cadoc7Westlake 8ポイント9ポイント  (0子コメント)

          Hence the angst in this thread.

          [–]cosmicsaloon 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

          I think we can all safely agree the douchebags who mod this sub Reddit are morbidly obese, living in their parents house 35 year old assholes who get no pleasure from anything in life except power tripping via banning people for stupid non important shit.

          [–]DickDoverJet City 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

          So if I mention /r/all am I in violation as that covers all subreddits?

          [–]mr_____awesomeqwerty 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

          Thanks for letting me know there is another sub. I'll be moving over there

          [–]camelfuck -3ポイント-2ポイント  (16子コメント)

          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 38ポイント39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.

          [–]ColonelError 31ポイント32ポイント  (0子コメント)

          a certain North Capitol Hill moderator

          Seems careless to identify him like that...

          [–]MakerGreyTweaker's Junction 23ポイント24ポイント  (9子コメント)

          Really? Careless is that paranoid now?

          [–]surflessinseattleMount Baker 27ポイント28ポイント  (8子コメント)

          Now?

          [–]MakerGreyTweaker's Junction 11ポイント12ポイント  (6子コメント)

          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.
