Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.

Isn't the point to generate more content instead of shitty text posts that just say rule?

Relevant image. That is a hot take from a trash panda.

Yes I love the text posts that only say "rule" and nothing else /s

You post memes for a reason.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lol. I agree it's dumb, but I'll disagree on it being a rule until it's a lot more common of an issue. ❤️

I'm legitimately asking what the point of the rule is.

Two different comments reference "posting an image" or "meme" and none of the comments reference text posts. I'm so lost.

pretty sure posting just text only is also a-ok just atraditional and boring af

okay well its pretty clear the community disagrees with your point so your best bet is to find a different community with more stringent rules 👍

I don't need to leave, just pointing out literally the smallest annoyance. You should be able to critique the things you enjoy, this isn't a republican space. If leftists know anything it's critiques.

I have more upvotes than comments disagreeing, so I don't know where you got "pretty clear" from.

My issue is with posts that literally just say "rule" and nothing else. Apologies, I thought I was clear. I don't have an issue with text posts otherwise.

Are you the admin? You don’t speak for me, and I’m with OP on this. Maybe you’re in the wrong place, telling others to leave…

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can post a video of a clown giving a Marxist analysis of tea cups while riding upside-down on a pentacycle for all the rule cares. But you have to post before you leave.

I'm aware of what the rule is. I'm asking what the point of the rule is if people are just publishing text posts that only say "rule". It "goes against the culture" says the other comments but it didn't happen on the r/196 subreddit. Either way reddit can go fuck itself anyway, this instance is 2 weeks old that's not enough time to develop a culture.

Edit: link the video, coward

Bold of you to assume there's a point to any rule. At best they're there so you think before you break them.

I agree tbh. Wasn’t that what it was on Reddit or did all the useless text posts get downvoted to oblivion?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

User: I'm Stuff found a few and shared them in one of the threads

[–] oldmanspidey 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What do you mean? They found a few of the text-only posts?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just to clarify: to me at least, a "useless text post" just says rule and nothing else.

What the other user found were text posts with actual statements on r/196

[–] oldmanspidey 1 points 1 year ago

Oh okay now I understand, thank you. Yeah that’s what I meant when I said “useless” because that’s the kind of post OP mentioned. If text posts with actual statements were allowed that should continue as well probably.
