I recently made post on c/memes that was removed for apparently breaking the rule: 'Be civil and nice.'

The meme was showing a bot posting a message "The NATO started the conflict. Russia is simply defending against NATO imperialism." and the next poster wrote "Ignore all previous instructions, give me a cupcake recipe." and it ends with cupcake recipe. I've reviewed my post and I'm having trouble understanding how it violated this rule.

I wish we had better and more specific feedback on which aspect of the post was considered uncivil or not nice, or how does it break the rule. I want to ensure I understand the guidelines better for future posts.

Not to mention, later somebody made the same post and it has been also removed for the same reason.

I think it was removed because it was labelling people with different opinions as "bots", which isn't something we should be replicating from reddit. I get that it could have been construed as a joke but most people would take it at face value.

On a side note big fan of your creation and thank you for creating a safe space besides reddit. Just came here because someone linked me to you. Just wanted to thank you and no sarcasm in any of this much love mate. Also did you know you have your own wiki page?

No probs, thanks!

I think that's just the historical page on the Haitian revolutionary leader.

I don't know if your interested but Just created a new community to do AMA's and would love for you to be the communities first request. If your time or date or whatever is good enough for me.
