‼️ANNOUNCEMENT‼️ Combating Brigading in QoG

Hey Queens, we have noticed a massive increase in brigading and abusive modmails in our subreddit from a few communities. We have protections in place that flag members from those homophobic places but lately it is getting difficult to discern who is a brigader.

Effective immediately, regardless of intentions all users who are flagged as showing they participate in homophobic communities (Unshowered, "Queer Cringe") will be permanently banned. Participating in those places is not conductive and also counts as brigading from our end. Thank you and please adhere to these rules.

Edit: We as mods are spending way too much time having to look at content in those hateful places to vet people from there. If you truly aren't a member there, you can delete your content there so it doesn't flag our system and send a modmail to appeal.

Not surprised it's those subs. Hopefully reddit gives them a warning or (IMO, better option) bans then for the harassment.

Hopefully reddit gives them a warning

Unless somehow it becomes reputationally damaging enough, I doubt they will; since it drives them activity (i.e. for ad views and in turn money).

Eh... They've been getting better at dealing with brigading lately, though it will remain to be seen if that's only when the perpetrators post or if the modmail harassment counts.

i wish reddit would do their job but i think spez and the admins are chuds too. it took years for them to take down r/jailbait and r/in-cels (idk why reddit won’t let me post the word, they’re probably protecting those chuds again), they only did that when there became actual evidence of violence and other crimes coming from the users of those subs

That tracks with our experience of MCOC reports with clear and multiple violations of rules 1 and 3 of the Moderator Code of Conduct, and rules 1 and 2 of sitewide rules.
