This Subreddit is a closed community (self.Seattle)

knightsmarian が 投稿

With the introduction of Rule 7: No competing subreddits, the mods have created a closed community. This goes against the public forum approach that Reddit has strived to be for years.

Just my two cents.

the entire mod team needs to step down immediately

[–]dagnabbit102 40ポイント41ポイント  (6子コメント)

There is a real toxic atmosphere here for sure. Yesterday, one of the mods was basically ranting about how users are posting his personal info. He is completely paranoid and thinks everyone is out to get him. His post history is atrocious. Attacking users completely unprovoked (screenshot attached of 1 example I saw yesterday). Perhaps if he stopped being a complete asshole and stepped down, this sub would improve. http://i.imgur.com/pKoOLLX.jpg

Maybe he shouldn't have made an account with his name and business then.

How long since you stopped beating your wife?

Isn't that a violation of rule 1, not too mention the behavior I expect to see from trolls accounts and not the top brass.

Senior Shitbag Careless never follows his own rules. Hell he's violated site rules before, and acts like he's all being persecuted because he should immediately remove the entire admin team and himself.

I volunteer to be caretaker of the sub until a new, better, admin team is found.

Is there a process in place for removing a moderator/admin team? I certainly see widespread support for it here. If there is proof of him violating the site, who can we contact above him?

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

no, reddit does not have a process for impeaching admin teams. they probably should. there are other subs that are definitely not properly moderated.

[–]dagnabbit102 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I doubt the mods will ever willingly step down. This whole thing is about pride and petty arguments.

[–]OmicronPersei8 16ポイント17ポイント  (1子コメント)

reddit is one site, the money all goes to one place, and these mods aren't getting any of it. the very idea of 'competing' subreddits is bizarre.

[–]ColonelError 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

If you leave, then the mods have less people to exert power over.

Is this page going to be removed? https://www.reddit.com/r/Seattle/wiki/relatedsubreddits

Why are none of you making a new subreddit? I'll help set up the CSS but damn it seems like every day I see something from this sub or r/all about how bad the mods are and what not.

Why are none of you making a new subreddit?

Already exists! But it's like the Lord Voldemort of Reddit, it must not be named.

[–]JoeskyyyNorth Capitol Hill 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

There are other ones. A simple search for our wonderful city's name will warrant the sub. However, should we speak of it, we'll face the ban hammer of doom.

Hell, I'll prolly get banned just for posting that comment, or this comment will be deleted lolol

[–]ursudae 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

People have, it's out there if you look for it. The Google machine in your friend (they're usually mentioned on the r/drama or r/bestof threads). But even the slightest hint of a name of totally legit competition will get you banned from this sub.

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

there's already another one with 6k users... if only we could mention it...

[–]zulan 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

What does this even mean? "closed community?" I just come here to see what is up?

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

Yea this sub is full of Seattlites... So I can't say I'm surprised about the passive aggressive, anti-social, social justice warrior, whiny little baby attitude that tends to permeate through the threads that arise. I mean I don't really get what this new rule changes -- are they saying I can't link to other subs like /r/funny? How the fuck do you think stifling competition in the world of the Internet is possibly going to work. Ask the record companies or movie industry. It's not that people won't pay, it's that you have to not completely suck

[–]dagnabbit102 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

From what I have seen (relatively new here) It's not about competition. It's about 1 mod's personal beef with someone who runs another seattle based subreddit.

Another thread about /u/careless drama? Again?

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

I expect this to become a daily thing

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

Time for the drama llama!

I vote Hillary! Oh wait wrong subreddit.

Hi, I am from /r/all

I have a particular issue with this line of yours:

This goes against the public forum approach that Reddit has strived to be for years.

Thats pretty misleading, isn't it?

Reddit has both open and closed community.

A classic example of this would be /r/lounge. Its a closed community that is exclusive only to reddit gold users.

Similarly, there are also many private subreddits like the hundred thousand karma club where people with hundred thousand karma get invited to that sub.

[–]Peanut2232 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, people are just upset about Rule 7.

In certain lights it's understandable, in others it's not. Thanks for the outside point of view. :)

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

Those were also set up by site admins, not mods. The reward people who have contributed to the site either with a noteworthy comment or post by having Gold, buying Gold themselves to support the site or have tons of karma showing that they have created lots of noteworthy content for the site and community. These are very different, at least in my point of view.

Not sure how any of that has anything to do with competing subreddits. No one sub has the ability to stop other subreddits from being created.
