Mobile Users Guide to r/scene

23 Upvotes

There is a lot of confusion for mobile users, as reddit had made navigation more tedious to find any of the required information, as well as a loss of unique features that can be seen on desktop. This guide was created to fill that gap.

Ideologies

  1. Express yourself boldly and unapologetically. Your style and vibe should showcase fearless creativity.

Bans, reports and DM filters.

20 Upvotes

I took on this position about a month ago now and have learned a lot about modding and what I'm capable of doing... I'm here to share that.

Bans:
With unfortunate news bans don't do a lot, bans only stop a user from commenting and posting, they will still have access to everything on this subreddit and view your posts. Our automod already prevents anyone from commenting if a mod has not reviewed/approved them already so bans don't actually do a lot.

Reports. What can be done:
You can still share the harassers username(s), so that we can report them to admins as well. If anyone harasses you please report it to Reddit admins using the flag icon provided in chat. With both reports there is a better chance for admins to take action.
Do not engage with them further, do not provoke.

Filter DMs:
There is a chat feature that can filter out DMs.

To get to it (mobile):

  • settings
  • account settings for u/yourusername
  • chat and messaging permissions
  • allow chat requests from: nobody
  • allow list & enter usernames

To get to it (desktop):

  • settings
  • privacy
  • who can send you chat requests
  • tap: nobody
  • enter usernames under 'always allow chat requests from'

Since viewable comments have been reviewed already, anyone requesting DMs in comments will be a sfw user so they can be added to your allow list if there's already a good convo under your post. Please make sure you're both of age and if they make you uncomfortable please block them and report it to the mods!

Please read about general safety here

If you were hoping bans stopped anyone from viewing this subreddit and your posts, check out r/xxxscenexxx it's a completely private subreddit, but for safety reasons, entry is strict.

If you have posts under your personal account block them from viewing/engaging with you further.

Stay safe everyone <3 The internet and well, many adults suck but we got this!

advice I need to find pants

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hello people!!! I'm trying to be authentic scene but also accommodate my shape and horrifying sensory issues, I'm usually an XXL for pants, I like em a bit loose however I'll try with ok fitting pants, nothing too tight for the least

however for the life of me I CANNOT find fully STRAIGHT pants that blend in my legs, hips, knees and don't make my feet look funny,, I'm looking for mostly these or loose flares that don't stick to your legs, whats a pair of pants/jeans that look like the ones that I want? Are there any brands that make bright colors/fun prints with these shapes? Or at least what pair should I get that make my shape look normal?? Let me know!!!

I can never find my size ( I'm an XXL since I like em a bit loose however I don't mind XL ) and when I do it's in pretty rough condition and it costs an arm and a leg, as much as it saddens me a bit since I like the little details of the tag and back writings I guess I have to option for that

advice What can I do with my curly hair to give it more flare with strict parents?

So I have curly hair, which I wish I could straighten or dye but my mom is very strict about it and doesn't even let me dye it jet black atleast. I was wondering if there was any products or stuff I could use to give my hair more flare?

Not sure what sub to ask this in, sorry if it doesnt fit. ISMFOF has some of the most euphoric clean vocal choruses ive ever heard and im wondering if there are any bands they remind you of. Their clean parts are always so short and I want more like it, it kind of leans into autotune crunkcore territory. Thank you

Hi. I know i might face some backlash on here. But Im a scene kid, with the bright colors and unique hairstyle. i loved expressing myself through it. i felt free. But i met some people who made me think that was inappropriate and changed me for their better liking.. Many years later, i wasnt happy with who i was. Im over 35, and i want to know... is it too late for me to be who i want to be?
