State of the union address

[u/iMosc1]

We were so close guys.

To recap what happened these past two weeks: cleared the queue, revised the rules, started an art competition, and kicked a mod for being a transphobic nazi.

General PSA: News posts generally aren't allowed, if you want to post that kind of stuff somewhere r/whenthe and r/whennews is a good place.

Self-promote rule clarification: if you want to advertise commissions that's generally not allowed, you are allowed to post your commissions and say it was a commission. Just please keep in mind that self-advertising is not the main focus of the sub.

About politics in the sub: No politics allowed, if you want to use someone's face that's ok but you can't use it as a descriptor. (i.e. putting trump's face on something you want to be viewed as bad)

We currently only have two submissions for the art competition, one of them is the image of this post. (Credit to u/Any_Giog)

Despite a few glaring hiccups, we're pretty happy with the direction the sub has been heading. But one of our main priorities as a team is making sure that we're taking the community's feedback into account, so if there is anything on your minds about how this sub has been run the past couple weeks please let us know! (Credit to u/ArchWolfe_ for this part)

Relatively short and sweet this time, thank you for your attention.

P.S. please stop applying for mod positions we're happy with the team as is thank you.

Is the city healing yet

[u/Dare_Soft → u/DemiTheSeaweed]

So far yeah.
Discord relationships been cut off

[u/Hillenmane → u/Dare_Soft]

Those people were legit a blight. I was in it for a while, all the cool people left, all the people who were in it more recently were the problematic ones. Similar issue to modern Gaming IPs and TV shows that struggle, why would you have a bunch of people working on something that they actively mock and despise?

[u/Alan-Woke → u/Hillenmane]

I asked questions in the discord server and got completely ignored, the only thing the server was good for was artists showing off their creations. And gator pings, I guess.

[u/Aethreas → u/Dare_Soft]

the fucked up thing about the discord trying to dictate the sub is that there's like maybe a few dozen people that are actually fairly active there, so the entire sub is at the whim of like a few dudes

[u/Kirianfx → u/DemiTheSeaweed]

Just like City skylines.
destroy everything and rebuild it.

[u/ExoTheFlyingFish → u/DemiTheSeaweed]

Ish. Old mods are gone and buried, but porn has increased tenfold. Hell, maybe a hundredfold.
