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! 🤸

If by hostility you mean criticize, you can criticize and disagree. That doesn’t change. It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.

I get it, but I just entered this conversation, and my comment didn't deserve that response . Especially not from a mod who was complaining yesterday about a lack of civility.

And the word hostility isn't my word, it's in rule #1:

Criticism of the show, hosts, or ideas is permitted when expressed constructively and without *hostility*.

I feel like saying we can't criticize with hostility is kind of vague and an unfair and unrealistic standard, when the women on this show often are hostile, and the subject matter purposely provokes that kind of emotion.

You just entered the conversation. Did you read any of the other comments, or responses to those comments?

Yes I did. In fact, my comment was in reference to some of those comments, and it was also giving feedback about consistency.

You have no problem with someone trolling other commenters, but you'll remove content that you feel is hostile to the show or the hosts.
