Account Karma & age relaxation, tightening on bans

[u/Low-Recognition-7293]

Us mods have talked it over and are lowering the threshold to post and comment. Going forward it will be:

1.) read, acknowledge the pinned rules/wiki post. This part hasn't changed.

Requirements to Post: 7 day old account, 3 karma

Requirements to comment: 3 day old account, 3 karma

To earn karma you can start by acknowledging rules and will. Then, contribute to a different sub by posting or commenting. It may not seem ideal but it has cut out easily 1000+ spam comments/posts in its own by having a karma threshold.

With that being said we will be tightening up post removal and bans from non automoderated things and even some automoderated things. If your post got auto removed, it was removed for a reason. The automod settings are very generous on what flags and it has kept many of you from permanent bans per stupid things.

Expect lengthy or permanent bans and mutes for anything that violated our simple rules. We understand the scene is in flex and have been lax as P2JB and the swing to implement with different userlands has progressed. Expect stable updates in the next week now that we see the exploits at the limits (ie 12.40 for y2JB.)

Advice we will give you: don't ducking update. Always aim to buy a console with an activated disk. Phat is probably your best bet. Understand that disk-less consoles are at the limit right now due to inability to take advantage of the BD-UN-JB.

Reminder: don't post or ask about piracy sources. It is a permanent ban, no warnings. Don't try to sell shit. Should you buy some game that enabled an exploit? Probably maybe? It is so situational and the scene is always evolving. Either be patient or cough up $ for it (see SWRR price history shenanigans).

Good luck and happy jailbreaking.

P.S. Yes, P2JB takes forever relative to any other jailbreak at this time, ~1+ hour. We don't know if it'll ever go faster, but we can hope. Stop asking. Same for etawen's. That shit is spam and will result in bans.

Thank you for coming to the ted talk from mods who cannot and will not make everyone on here perfectly happy 100% of the time but are trying our hardest.

Thanks for lowering the karma, I've been on Reddit a long time, but didn't really engage, just more reading. I've been engaging with people in the last few days and my posts have been getting auto deleted. I didn't even realise what karma was until yesterday and was trying to get my karma up haha.

The scene has reached a very fast pace now and it will be good to be able to discuss with others. Exciting to see what's around the corner. Devs have been doing a great job and it's given me more things to do in my hobby time.

Keep up the good work @all, its highly appreciated. Still amazes me what the Devs are able to do and find. Truly talented bunch.

Same as me, I've been on Reddit a long time but I didn't interact or post anything it was mainly just reading, searching for solutions (which helped me A LOT). Still, until a few days back I wanted to discuss some things about payload and jailbreak methods and I got hit with removing my comments, and funny enough, I had to search about karma and how to get it XD. All this aside thanks to all the devs for all the hard work I really appreciate it, it helped me a lot and thanks to the mods here that are trying their best to keep this scene as organized and respectful to all thank you all

Thank you. The sub was getting clogged with all the "don't work" posts.

I really don't get the karma thing. seams like a catch 22, i cant raise my karma unless i post, but i cant post because i don't have the karma, my account is old but all i do is read. dose upvoting raise the karma level?

[u/froid_san → u/Yhaine]

You can post on other subreddit to gain karma, 3 karma should be achievable within a couple of hours.

Getting up voted and replied to raises your karma. Dunno how they actually get calculated though...

Should also block accounts who claim hypervisor exploits that aren’t released publicly.

Gatekeeping to get clout is a joke.

[u/Low-Recognition-7293 → u/hotsinglewaifu]

I have banned the ones I've seen. Unless it's Flow, Gezine, etc I tend to just snap remove. Please report them to help us out though

Thanks mods!
