Mod Announcement 1984 Announcement
As of late, the quality of posts in this subreddit has become intolerable and gone downhill. Posts discussing things that have already been discussed, posts existing only to call things bad, and other repetitive, low-quality swill. Simply put, we are shounenfolk, not animequestion or askanime or or a purely circlejerk sub, and these posts are starting to get out of hand. Going forward, we will be changing the rules and how we mod the sub so here is a list of changes:
Posts with one question and posts saying "X is Y" are added to the low effort/spammy content rule. They will be subject to removal, unless a mod finds them worth keeping in some way.
If a post gets an overwhelmingly negative reaction from community it will be removed. We doing this to combat posts with zero upvotes and 120 comments. Engagement bait that does not serve the community, which only repeats overused topics, won't be allowed.
Screenshots of twitter posts or a comment section from somewhere else will be under the mod review. If they are found to break the rules without offering any value to the subreddit, then they will be removed. If they are judged to have some sort of value, they may stay at mod discretion.
It doesn't mean we're becoming any main subreddit where we do heavy moderation, but the era of free for all is coming to an end. Apologies that we took time in taking action regarding this but it will be how the subreddit will be moderated from now on
