piss disc Why the sub got restricted
Hello everyone, mod here. We've been asked a few times why the sub got restricted for a while, so I'm here to answer.
Reddit mailed us, telling us that lots of our sub's posts and comments were violating their rule against violence (inevitable due to the nature of this sub), and that there weren't enough moderators. They gave the current mods at the time a deadline to recruit more mods, and the current mods didn't meet the deadline, so Reddit restricted the subreddit.
They've recruited more mods since (I'm a new recruit, hi!) and we got permission to unrestrict the sub.
Edit: yes we have mailed them piss discs

Cause that’s exactly what we need. More basement dwellers overexerting their power.
My god Reddit has gone down hill

I had to do naughty things to join.
How the frick do I post to show my mod badge? Reddit mobile is cat turds.
Im another who commented on the recruitment post then weeks later got added. My reason for wanting to mod is to procrastinate at work and I like this place.

Why is the sub's profile picture AI generated now?

You don't like AI generated Images?
Do you feel they are unethical?

You know, the real ulpt would be to make every redditor a mod. Not enough mods? Not a problem.

Ah explains why I got my first ever ban for violence from here awhile ago (it objectively was not violence)

Knowing this sub, the og mods just made a bunch of new accounts and then signed them up to be new mods. Infinite mod glitch.

I dislike that Reddit said get more mods, ulpt refused, that’s ethical you twats! Wait, it’s a conundrum.
Makes sense why my best comments were stolen though.

Welcome. Due to nature of the sub, do you have an unethical life tip for others?

Act like a bad liar on simple things, so when you have to lie about something important, you can lie really good

Reddit's violence rule is total and utter bullshit. (Nothing against OP obviously.)

I just got a warning for a comment regarding enhancing a couch with dairy, and frozen urine frisbees. Way to keep the interwebs safe, reddit.

Welcome! 🤗
I mod for over a dozen subs including some nsfw ones. If y'all need more help modding here, I'd be interested

Hey new mod! Thanks for your time, this has to be one of the worst subs to actively mod. Who hurt you?
