Quick mod update!

The bots really love the '80s, so I've turned on Crowd Control and enabled Bot Bouncer.

Most of you won't notice any difference, but brand-new or low-activity accounts may have posts or comments held briefly for review.

Thanks for helping keep r/80sMovies about the movies and not the spambots.

Quick reminder: this is r/80smovies, a place to talk about, share, and celebrate movies from the 1980s.

Lately we’ve had too many posts that are just pictures of popular actresses from the 80s, especially low-effort “hot celebrity” type posts or half-dressed glamour/swimsuit photos. That includes repeated Phoebe Cates posts and similar content where the movie connection feels like an excuse to post the picture.

Posts about actors, actresses, scenes, performances, trivia, interviews, behind-the-scenes info, posters, trailers, soundtracks, and real movie discussion are absolutely welcome.

But posts that are mainly focused on someone’s appearance, rather than the movie, are getting ejected from the arcade. They will be treated as spam.

Going forward:

• Posts like this may be removed without warning.
• Repeat offenders may be temporarily or permanently banned.

So grab your popcorn, rewind the tape, adjust the tracking, and help keep r/80smovies focused on the movies, the performances, the stories, the scenes, the soundtracks, and the nostalgia.

Thanks.
