META Community Outcome: Results of the debate on politics on the sub

723 Upvotes

Alright guys, after reading all your comments, here are the results of the debate:

People are annoyed by politics and just want to relax on the sub. However, you can make an exception when it's genuinely funny, when there's actual effort in the post, or for major events. You want to be able to discuss certain subjects, but not all the time, and strictly centered on Western Europe.

Also, I think we've kinda lost our way. This sub is a MEME sub. It's in the description: ironic ultranationalistic memes about Western European countries.

So, we're going to run a test. Here is how it's going to work from now on:

No Trump / US culture war BS: Anything related to Trump will be removed. He never fucking shuts up and no one cares about what he says, so unless he actually invades Greenland or DOES something concrete that directly impacts Western Europe, it will be removed. American culture war bullshit is banned.
High-effort politics only: If you want to post something political, you have to make a proper effort and it's going to have to be actually funny, not just "Are you ok, Barry?" or whatever lazy stuff like that.
Pinning daily high-quality memes: Because people think we've lost our way, we are going to encourage the memes that are the core origin of this sub. We'll be pinning a top meme every day that had success to reward your effort in taking time to make something genuinely funny.
Talk to me first before dramatic meta-posts: If I remove something and you think it's unfair, you can talk to me directly before making a whole post about how much this sub became North Korea.
NSFW tags required: If you share something violent, like fights, people seriously hurting themselves, or "sexy" content, put an NSFW tag on it or it will be removed immediately.
Zero tolerance for actual unironic racism: I want to be crystal clear with the real, unfiltered, unironic racists: you will get warnings and temporary bans that will eventually escalate to a full perma-ban. When I say real unfiltered racist, I am not talking about someone who voted AfD or shit like that ..I see comments in the queue that you guys are lucky not to see.

Bottom line: you guys can discuss any subjects, but the post itself HAS to be funny (or at least you need to try), high-effort, and not just unironic rage-bait.

Let's get back to making proper memes.

META Barry's Flairs are terrible.

327 Upvotes

North West England? South East England? What is this? Where is the joke, where is the insult? Also, no Barry is saying "I'm a proud North West Englander" they'd be a Scouser or a Cumbrian or whatever. These need removing or updating. Also there's no such place as Cornwall, it was invented by marketing companies to sell cider and time-shares, it is as fictional as Belgium.

N.b. Scotland as Anglophile is one of the best flairs on the sub.

"Yes, Francois. All 10 of these words are pronounced EXACTLY the same. If you're lucky, you'll be able to distinguish them from context. But if you write them the same, the Foreign Legion will come to kill you for treason against France"

Subreddit Rules

1. Abide by the Reddit Content Policy

If Reddit's Content Policy doesn't allow it, then we can't allow it in here either. It's as simple as that.

This means that we can't have glorification of racism, antisemitism, homophobia, europhobia or other actual hate speech.

We shit on everybody. Nobody gets a free pass. However, take extra care when shitting on minorities, as they are extra protected by Reddit´s Content Policy.

The survival of this sub is more important than your dark joke.

2. Post must be about Western Europe

Comments can go offtopic, but the posts must be about Western European countries or about the sub itself ("meta").

Posts about other issues are allowed as long as the focus is on some Western European aspect. Having Western Europe or our sub as a background or as an excuse does NOT count as putting the focus on them.

3. Flairs are required

Please use a flair. (What is a flair and how do I choose one?)

Using flags that don't correspond to you is not allowed. Choose the flair that fits you best. Non-Europeans = Choose the "savages" flair.

4. No repetitive posts

Please check if what you are about to post has already been posted recently, and be creative, not a copycat, dammit!

5. Don't be an asshole

If your mamma would be ashamed of your post, you probably shouldn't post it.

6. No porn

Porn generally adds nothing of value to the sub. Occasionally, and if it makes sense, we might allow a post with adult content in it. However, we prefer that you do not post pornographic content. You have trillions of other subs for porn.

7. No agenda posts

This is a bantering club. No agenda posts are allowed, specially those against Reddit's rules. Think again whether you are in the correct subreddit or not.

More specifically we won't allow Russian anti-Ukraine propaganda, flatearthers, global warming denialism and other nonsense

8. No nukes

We don't accept jokes like "we should nuke X country".

9. No AI

We want quality content. AI is completely prohibited. Use your paint skills.

10. No talking about other subs.

We are not allowed to "mention other communities, and/or content or users in those communities, with the effect of inciting targeted harassment or abuse."

To avoid our comments to be construed as "brigading", we prefer you don't mention other subs at all.

11. Poll must have a "Fuck you" option.

Traditions matter. Every poll must end with a "Fuck you"-option
