Permaban Redditors

[carshalash]

Recently a certain policy thread came up discussing ways of managing the playstyle on LRP servers. As Redditors do, they waddled to their echo chamber to have a melty over proposed changes.

So I would also like to propose a change. Being found salt posting on Reddit should result in a permanent ban if not a blacklist. Redditors have empirically been shown to be unable to discuss anything rationally, with r/ss13 devolving into a circlejerk of ban evasion and griefing. By cutting out those found posting there, we will be benefiting the tgtstation community as a whole.

i really, really, really, really do not care what 14 year olds on reddit have to say about the game. giving them attention just excites them.

i used to play this game when it had 10 players on a server. people today are absolutely obsessed with playercounts, and having existential crises about "dead game" the minute someone logs off.

let's focus on our community and our game and let those dweebs jack each other off in peace.

I think I would be okay with a rule that if you take something on /tg/ (either a ban, a policy thread, whatever) and you post it on /r/SS13 trying to start drama, you should be banned for shit stirring, but that's only going to be enforceable when it's REALLY OBVIOUS who did it.

It's also not going to stop it, it's just going to cause the people who aren't banned to be way more careful about what info they give and the people who are banned to... y'know, just do it, because they don't care about being banned.

It's also honestly just not worth our time tbh.

I wanted to have the shitpost title for funsies and thought people would have read the second paragraph. Cheers for reading it vekter.

I only really care if people are purposefully trying to fan flames and start shit on external sites.
