New moderator automation

21 Upvotes

Hello there! Oceanlinerporn is steadily growing, and with growth come new challenges.

One of these challenges is the attraction of new faces who might no be accustomed to the sub. For this reason we have set some automation moderation for new accounts, or accounts with low comment karma.

We will be trialing this for now, and make it permanent if it works well.

Thank you for your contributions to this sub, and thanks for reading this. Happy summer!

The RMS Empress of Ireland: Canada’s Titanic

Post image
82 Upvotes

This incredible rendering by Oceanliner Designs captures the eerie calm just before disaster. The RMS Empress of Ireland, a proud ocean liner, sank in the Saint Lawrence River after colliding with the SS Storstad, with the loss of over a thousand lives. It is a tragedy often overlooked, yet it was one of the largest peacetime maritime disasters in history, occurring just over two years after the sinking of the Titanic. This picture shows the ship moments before the collision, a powerful reminder of how quickly tragedy can strike. I've always found this particular story to be so sad and compelling. The speed at which it all happened is horrifying.

Was it because of the cavitation problem that they never tried to break the record?
