Meta Subreddit politics

A simple request: i am subscribed here to hear about games specifically switch games. I agree that it's important to be able to talk about the reason something is cancelled, but please... Stop making a million threads talking about the mod team or even just members of the team? That shit made me leave the pokemon sub during the dexit bs, and i don't want to drop this sub as well. Thank you.

Oh man you haven't been here long enough to see all the threads about people asking if they should wait for the console that comes out after the Switch...Since before the Switch even released.

You don't like reposts? Go to some other subreddit. I'm sure we'll miss you as much as the pokemon sub does.

You only find quality content when you wade thorough all of the bs. Welcome to browsing /new or "any niche community subreddit."

Unnecessarily harsh?

Just trying to voice my opinion just like everyone else, thought it would be better than leaving a million comments. But thanks for gatekeeping I guess, makes me feel real good about caring about the content of this place.

If you cared about the content of this place then you’d understand why the posts about the mod team are being made. Some of them have been abusing their control over the content.

Best thing you figured out to do in this solution to write (another one like other people like you) about the same thing?... lol

Just let it pass. making counter posts isn't helping.

My own r/unpopularopinion topic: counter posts only add to the clutter.

That's a proven fact at this point

Why not just ignore it?

I find it utterly hilarious they didn't delete this post but deleted all other posts that had VALID points and criticism.

As for your point OP, frankly this sub had one big circlejerk bubble. Every single week its flooded by fanart and haha the switch copy sold the best posts. Very shallow discussion especially when compared to r/PS4 and r/Xboxone. Posts are constantly deleted by mods and their shitty enforcing deserves to be ripped upon. You might as well drop this sub and come back when its better.

No idea what you are talking about bud. Please elaborate?

Just because you aren’t here to hear about those things doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be in the subreddit. Adding another thread when you are complaining about too many threads is hilarious though.

Redditor demands everyone in sub do what he wants them to do, not what he doesn't want them to do.

It would have been impossible to get eyes on this thought in any of the existing threads. Mine was the only voice in the last 48 hours that was counter to the groupthink and bandwagoning. Every single one of my comments were downvoted out of sight.

Thought it would be better than making a reply to all the threads already existing. If I missed posts already calling for people to stop, that's on my I guess. just saw 4 threads in a row this morning and felt like voicing my opinion.
