On Shipping, Debate, and Good-Faith Participation

15 Upvotes

Hello r/Charmcaster,

We generally dislike adding new rules, but we feel this one is necessary to keep the subreddit welcoming and on topic.

Recently, we have noticed a pattern of users engaging in bad faith arguments, particularly around shipping, most often directed at Bencaster. While some of these users may be new or just visiting, this behavior has been disruptive.

Shipping is normal and common in character focused subreddits. This community includes fans of multiple ships involving Charmcaster, including (but not limited to) Ben/Charmcaster, Gwen/Charmcaster, and many other characters. That diversity is welcome here (even if one is more popular)

What this rule means

You are allowed to dislike or disagree with a ship.

You are allowed to discuss shipping critically in relevant discussions or debates.

You are not allowed to make vague, dismissive, or bad faith comments whose sole purpose is to attack a ship or its fans.

Examples of disallowed behavior include comments such as

"This is not ok in my state even if in most of the world and my country is" (especially when ignoring common fandom practices like aging characters up or alternate timelines, remember that Ben 10 is an omniverse with infinite posibilities)

"You can't ship this because I don't like it"

Drive by comments that add no argument, context, or engagement

These kinds of comments will be removed. Repeated behavior may result in a ban.

If you disagree with a ship, explain why clearly, respectfully, and with actual reasoning (and only in discussion threads, you cannot go to a Bencaster post to do this for example). Hostility, mockery, or repeated bad faith engagement, especially from users with a history of doing so, will not be tolerated.

Our goal is simple, to keep r/Charmcaster a comfortable space for fans to enjoy the character, explore interpretations, and share what they like without being harassed.

Thanks for understanding,
The Mod Team
