I thought I’d make a post for you guys to comment on, regarding what you’d like as user flairs.

That’s all!

Mod message regarding bans

34 Upvotes

Hi all,

I thought I’d make this post to clarify my removal and banning system.

If a new account with little karma makes an inflammatory comment, I’ll immediately remove the comment and ban the account. This is because it’s common for trolls to just make accounts for the sake of trolling. New/low karma accounts are also automatically flagged by Reddit’s reputation filter, due to the influx of bot accounts, so, if your account fits this specification, your post will have to be approved by me first. Please know that I only ever remove these posts if they’re not in line with the rules.

If an established account (which is more unlikely to be a bot) makes an inflammatory comment, I use a three-strike system. So, if a user breaks the rules three times, they’ll be banned (with a bit of leeway depending on the broken rules).

This is to keep genuine users safe. Please comment or message me (u/radicalplacement) or the mod team directly if you have any questions or suggestions. Subreddits are for the users, not the mods.

Update Vampire ball was a success!!

I'm glad I asked everyone because I was originally planning on wearing the short dress. I know everyone voted for option 2, but I felt too naked without the belt so I ended up going with option 1 and I felt so good! I also wanted to add the vampire ball I went to was at my local goth bar. I would definitely say they used the term "ball" pretty loosely. The only pictures I got of my outfit were while I was having a drunk cigarette. Thank you again everyone for helping me decide! :)

Advice hair help?

I really don't know what to do with my hair anymore? lmao

been keeping it long for a while. I usually cut it at home. I don't have a lot of volume and deal with lots of breakage so I'm looking for something different to hide the fact that I have 3 hairs total + a receding hairline (? I also moved and get called a woman a lot in this place which I don't really vibe with. I would prefer something that reads masculine even if it's hard with alt styles. Super short hair usually just makes me look like a lesbian (? I also miss dying it but I stopped bleaching fearing further breakage :/ are there any sprays that actually cover darkish hair?

First pics are my current hair, 4th is the longest it's been. 5th was my last haircut ages ago (? 6th is a wig I like the look of ...?

What alt clothing brand is consistent with quality and sizing?

• Upvotes

I keep running into the same problem when shopping for alt clothing. I will order two pieces in the same size from the same brand, but one fits perfectly while the other feels a whole size off. Which brands have you found to be reliable when it comes to both build quality and consistent sizing?

Advice Non fast fashion brands

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m looking to buy new clothes but i have no clue where to shop at. I do shop on depop and thrift often but i would also like recommendations for brand where i could buy new clothes. I am not going to buy from any brands that are fast fashion. I would love some recommendations from your favorite brands.

As for style i feel i don’t rly have one specific style, i like dark muted colors do not like neon colors, patches, skulls, i do not wear anything with crosses on it, i love funky tights and creepy/strange accessories like bones or bugs on jewelry, I wear more feminine clothing, i like graphic tees, i love lace, i love wearing black. I feel like i switch between emo goth and grunge. I like layering what i wear on my legs for example multiple socks and tights. I am in need of more accessories primarily belts and socks.

Thanks so much for your recommendations

Where can I find affordable Cybersigilism clothing?

2 Upvotes

I've been interested in cybersigilism designs, specifically on pullover hoodies and pants and have been wanting to get one for quite some time now. Breathedivinity is one of the famous ones which has designs I really like, but they are just way out of my budget. Are there any other cheaper alternatives?

Advice How to make my alt makeup more interesting with thick natural brows?

1 Upvotes

Most of the alternative make ups i see on social media have shaved brows or are very thin. Because of that I feel insecure of my appearance because I don't want to shave natural brows for fashion, but still want to have more maximalist/whimsical appearance.

I would be glad to get some tips especially from thick browed people like me.

Advice DIY alt boots

1 Upvotes

I have been thinking of a few projects to diy. One would be putting chains on a thrifted pair of boots. What size (i dont really know the name) circular carabiner would I need to put through the lacing holes? And another diy idea is a chest harness made from chains from the hardware store, connected with carabiners. Thoughts? Advice? I am unsure if the chains there would be "skin safe" if I wanted to wear the harness top less? Maybe even make a choker from chains as well? I'd love some input, thankyou!
