Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

No spam.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

I clearly remember an incident when I was a 20 year old pizza delivery guy who made a delivery to an attractive middle aged woman in a bathrobe who gave me a bit of mischievous smile when I showed up with her pizza. I didn't take the bait, but it was pretty weird. Luckily the pizza was from a really good place, so hopefully she wasn't too disappointed.

I was about 22 when a delivered a pizza to a motel where 3 very attractive women answered the door in their underwear and invited me in. It was 1am and I had worked all day in 90 degree weather. It was my last delivery before going back and closing up the shop which i knew would take at least an hour. I politely declined and have regretted that decision since lol, but I think i ultimately did them a favor, considering how much sweat I accumulated that day.

As a former pizza delivery guy, having cute women hit on you is nice and all, but have you tried receiving a scribbled note from a child that said "thank you pizza man I love pizza" because I kept that shit for years it was so god damned heartwarming.

The best tip I ever received. Thanks, kiddo.

Best I ever had was me being invited up to some fancy flat, because the guy thought the Balaklava I used to deliver was funny.

When I got up there, there was a man and a woman in bed watching TV, whilst the guy who invited me in was holding a camcorder.

He laughed, they chuckled warily, and me being the nervous 20-something that I was chuckled too and said "Pizza!"

Apparently that was the right word, and they let me go and gave me a good tip, but I've always wondered what if....
