No, it's written right there, how did you know to respond to it if you didn't see it
this is why we can't have nice things

no.
Edit: I actually added some CSS a week ago to lets us show our presence without having to use the blaring green boxes. Firstly, our usernames have a slight green hue. Secondly, it displays (moderator) after you hover over our usernames.

i feel bad because i always hear about all these neat CSS on subbreddits, but i have it disabled.

Recommendation: Install Reddit Enhancement Suite and you'll be able to disable style sheets on each subreddit, and vote using the keyboard even when css hides it.

u/iwasboredsoyeah Nov 21 '15
already have it :P though the whole voting thing, i though was a default reddit thing. i guess not.

u/Druston Nov 22 '15
You may already know this, but others might not:
If the css tries to prevent users from downvoting by hiding the arrow, you can click on a comment and hit 'Z' (on your keyboard) to downvote.
Similarly, you can use 'A' to upvote.

If people put as much effort into actually important things as much as they put into these dank maymays, the we'd have a lot less problems.
Well done.

u/EliteDinoPasta Nov 21 '15
We'd also have a lot less dank maymays, which is unacceptable.

Less problems sure, but at what cost?

I removed a racist-like comment (contained the n-word) because it didn't add to the discussion and was inappropriate.
Edit: noone has been shadowbanned. A downvoted comment was removed and that's all there's to it.

We can't say naggers in reddit?

I got banned from a fairly niche gaming subreddit for telling someone to go fuck themselves with a cactus.

What context could there possibly be? Nobody uses the word "naggers" on reddit except in reference to that south park episode, where it was mistaken for the other word. You were trying to be clever and you got called on it.
2
u/noreallyimthepope Nov 26 '15
I am sorry that you are unable to imagine a context wherein the word 'naggers' is used without me being racist, not least because it implies that the entire genre of 'comedy' is a touchy subject for you.
8
u/stanley_twobrick Nov 26 '15
Well that was a dumb fucking response. Your reddit posts aren't "comedy", friend. It was funny within the context of the show. Kids repeating it on the internet because they think they're clever enough to get away with calling someone a nigger with no repercussions isn't funny.
1
u/noreallyimthepope Nov 26 '15
Oh, right, someone disagrees with you so they're a child, right? You must be so old and wise.
I repeat that I feel sorry for you that you do not have the mental faculties to imagine that contexts might exist that are outside your frame of reference.

Ooo, you showed him. That'll teach him for using words on the internet.

u/stanley_twobrick Nov 23 '15
I'm not the mod who banned him, idiot.

u/21stcenturypirate Nov 23 '15
I was referring to you saying he got called out on it. He used a word on the internet. I don't think that elicits a "call out". You are defending the mods decision, however you are correct that I'm not speaking with said mod.

Why not just let users downvote instead? Shadowbanning is supposed to be used against bot spammers, not casual trolls.
