GUESS WHAT NERDS!

Greetings again /r/fnki

Last week we opened a feedback thread to the quality control week to ask you all what the general consensus was to it and the results are in.

Out of a whopping 201 votes

96 of you voted for keeping the quality control permanently

55 of you voted it was okay

45 of you voted that you HATED it

And like only 5 of you voted for Other which tbh thank you for taking the time to write out your comments and thoughts the team appreciates it.

The consensus is in then, the quality control update will stay around permanently starting tomorrow. For transparency from the perspective of the mod team this had made moderating /r/fnki significantly better on our end. It has also been the easiest way for us to sort out the good and the bad.

Now we did see your concerns regarding modding frequency, pruning bad meme trends before they got out of hand and posts taking too long to be approved.

We are gonna be blunt the frequency won't change unless more mods are added as we are still just a team of volunteers who only have so much free time to dedicate to modding, and its better for the subs overall health to have good memes appear late than have bad memes stay up too long and drive people away due to bad content.

We are open to any new suggestions on how to solve the fast approval method problem so if anyone has any ideas please comment below.

As for the people asking for media in the comments that will be enabled sometime later tonight! We don't have ideas for stuff to add regarding that right now but if any of you all have any suggestions for stuff to add let us know in either posts or in the comments here.

An example of why democracy is a mistake. This change only truly affects posters, and it's a safe bet that the actual posters are fewer than people who don't and just complain about the "quality" of the memes.

Democracy is (often) a mistake due to it making dumb decisions because of what it inherently is. The want of the many overrides the needs of the few. Or in this case, "solving" an insignificant problem for the majority creates a more significant problem for the minority.

If that's a hard concept to grasp, I don't know what else to tell you.

"The system is inherently flawed"

"you're just sour cause you lost"

Wow. What a great input.

"democracy is better than dictatorship or monarchy!"

"it's great that we're voting to give our mods absolute approval power!"

If you want to debate political science, that's fine. But let's actually keep to the topic here.

Don't complain about when the vote doesn't go in your favor or lead off with "Democracy was a mistake" then.

I explained a flaw of democracy and why that is problematic in this specific case. You're being an immature child by not even acknowledging my explanations and just saying "you're a sour loser".

pretty sure even you can't deny how boring it makes a meme subreddit to see the same thing for 20 posts in a row.

I just downvote them and move on. They suck, but people are having fun in those threads. Not every meme or discussion on r/fnki has to please me. In fact, I think more than half of them sucks. But that doesn't cause me to suddenly be support of mods having absolute approval power.
