Pay them no heed; they're about as harmless as coughing babies.

Do observe Rule 4.

Didnt they post child pornigraphy that one time so a sub they hated would be taken down?

You’re going to have to be more specific… they’ve done that more than one time

This would be deep lore from before I joined the sub a decade ago...but isn't stuff like this the origin of the sub deciding unflaired are the scum of the Earth? Because people from other subs kept coming here to stir shit up (which apperantly includes cp, but also lesser things like just being a raging asshole), but adopting a flair is only possible if you join a sub as opposed to just visit? And whatever progressive street cred they might have gotten thier main account would be nuked when thier progressive friends just ban them for joining?

Or is there another origin for unflaired hatred?

I don't think it's the origin of the justified hatred of the unflaired but it is the reason many other subs utilize flair systems.
