*phew* Well, good thing I don’t need your sympathy. :D
Fact is, Reddit is still a hugely-useful place for me, so I have one foot still wedging that door open.


The should have unionised and demanded a salary a long time ago.
Yeah, mods who tried to do that kind of thing were simply replaced as I recall it, and their subs transferred to new mods. Reddit is pretty much down the capitalist hellhole at this point.
Democracy is not a birthright, and each generation has a duty (starting to themselves) to be educated and informed, in order to vote regularly and responsibly. Too many citizens who fail to perform that duty mean that eventually such democracy will crumble.
Capitalism is a heartless tyrant at the end of the day, willing to mindlessly destroy everything around it in the sheer, relentless pursuit of lucre. This is why a strong system of checks and regulations must always exist to prevent it from spinning out of control.
Those are both of my phrasings above, and I owe many people before me for helping me properly understand these things, and to keep improving on them.


This one might help, and incidentally could use a little love:


Late reply, but like it or not, Reddit is still invaluable for me, even if it’s essentially a capitalist exploitation of its users.
In short, its got loads more thriving communities and user engagement, altho I hope the FV can steadily make gains, there.
John Martinez, you flupping idiot.


Oh, please do fuck off.
Quel type de fromage souhaitez-vous pour accompagner vos plaintes incessantes ?


Ah, encore une chose-- I think it hugely likely that their internal analytics (similar to rrc.fyi, reveddit.com, snoosnoop.com, etc) must also play a role.
So more than just acct age, karma and keywords, they probably keep a running ‘quality user’ score that likely factors in to such decisions. You can see examples of what that might look like via those links above. So I’m thinking that a high-karma, old acct with high quality user score probably has more leeway to deal in risky-type keywords.
In any event, they’re a big company with millions of users to manage, so no matter what, they surely have a bunch of fairly complex algorithms to do much of the heavy lifting in terms of site-wide moderation.


Well, isn’t that the way! :D
Hmm, there is much to ponder, here…


And what do you know about these matters, Bobb?


Could you tell us what happened, in as much explicit detail as you can can?


Okay, fair enough, but that brings up another angle–
What if they have a site-wide bias (and they almost certainly do, for perfectly good reasons), for new accts and/or little-used accts to demonstrate a level of non-controversial engagement before passing a certain litmus test… in which the accts are later allowed much more freedom to post & comment upon controversial matters?
The good-faith test, so to speak.
Because without a shred of doubt, there most be a huge influx of new and sleeper accts that are created for sockpuppet, propaganda, and destabilization purposes, apart from whatever political angle they’re coming from.
So isn’t it possible you’re getting tripped up right there? Which is why I’m thinking a far better test would be to bring up the 2A from older accts with solid karma and solid analytics (rrc.fyi, reveddit.com, snoosnoop.com, etc)


I’ve confirmed this with multiple accounts now.
I mean, you’re breaking their rules right up front. That could mean they’re banning you simply based on that rule, and nothing necessarily to do with rights advocation.
Unless of course you’re doing a top job of disguising each new acct. AFAIK, they’re pretty good at detecting that stuff… (I mean accts that aren’t IP-related and such)


It’s a nice book, and a lighthearted look at a young man losing his religion. I’ll post some more pages, soon.


TBF, Brown ‘losing his religion’ is a major theme of the graphic novel, and I thought he handled it with plenty of respect, tact, and honesty… all told in his quirky storytelling mode, of course.
I didn’t say “disintegrate.” It’s that the ground turkey just barely registers as an ingredient of the dish.
But, hmm… browning.
I’m not sure I’ve ever tried that, and yet I seem to remember OP talking about that as something that can really boost meat’s flavor, I think?
I’ve tried ground turkey in chili before, and as with most dishes where it’s not the featured item, it tends to almost completely disappear, flavor and texture-wise. I hate to say it, but ground beef or maybe finely-cut cube steak stands out far more to me and adds a hearty level of flavor that turkey just can’t.
That said, nutritionally I’m not a fan of red meat at all, so mostly I just make veggie chili, with kidney beans usually being the featured player. Still quite delicious when I don’t boof it up, somehow.
So lap it up, fuzzball.
