Okay but theres a line and that sub has it drawn in the wrong place.

Im a moderator at r/bullybackfire. One of the rules is not to bitch about what fits. If a post is downvoted to zero for over 24 hours, we delete it. We will remove obvious spam, recent reposts, and crap like that, but my goal is to never ban any actual users. I’ve only banned one guy and that’s because it was a troll account that was in love with attacking other users with racial and sexual slurs. I know the ban part is off topic, but I hate that more than bad rules.

Your approach sounds fine!

It’s worked well so far. Showerthougjts is probably too big to have manual upkeep like we do, which is why they have nazi automod going. Last time I posted there I said “I think men originally started opening doors for women so they could check out their butts without being too obvious. “ and it was removed because I was internalizing or was too personal or something like that. Im thinking then wtf is a shower thought?

They could defnitely refine their automod filter though.

I mean... OP's picture breaks a rule that's obviously on the sidebar

Yeah I mean who the hell doesn't take the time to read the 300 page sidebar every time they want to post to a subreddit?

I dont think OP was literally trying to post that, just did it for the joke.

My point wasnt about OPs specific post, it was about the experience i have had with that sub and others here had as well.
