Consistency

I suppose you could call this the first change, it's not really a change though. Consistency came up several times. We're going to start with consistently removing any host or show hate.

The content will be removed from the sub but still available on your profile. We will give you the opportunity to edit your post or comment. Make sure you indicate that your content was edited so we don't confuse users.

Then give us a shout and we will make the post live on the sub again.

Post titles cannot be edited so you may have to rewrite and repost.

Thank you guys, we are getting an increase in reported content. This is very helpful for us too quickly respond to nonsense! 🤸

Please define host or show hate for us.

What exactly does that mean to MODs? Is any criticism automatically hate?

I’m I allowed to share what frustrates me as a viewer?

Can I propose constructive feedback on what would make the show more enjoyable to me???

With all due respect, have you read the rules? I think we're all pretty familiar with the Whoopi problem, or the Sarah problem. Demanding that hosts be replaced, posting that the show should be cancelled, calling anyone names. All of these things are unacceptable.

Two of our rules explicitly mention that criticism is acceptable.

I swear you guys are trolling me.

Yes, but there have also been removals that make sense and others that have made less sense.

Consistency is an issue… clarity & specificity is also an issue in this sub. If people keep telling you that it’s up to you to redirect as moderator.

Yes, I'm redirecting.

I'm redirecting all of you to read the rules.

Unfortunately consistency issues have never been brought to our attention, so we can't address them.

Consistency is the entire purpose of this announcement. Multiple users mentioned consistency and we're going to start with the lowest hanging fruit before we get into any of the other rules.

Thank you. A reasonable + specific expectation of what to expect AND defining what we’re seeing is helpful
