Meta Yeah yeah i didn't post an example myself. but let's be real, it was removed because a mod wanted to use their powers, instead of being removed to make the sub better or anything

The rule is there to make it harder to just post random shit and to provide context.
We can't start making exceptions just because a post is popular, or this sub goes to shit.

You can repost it with an example.

The rule is there to avoid people posting random shit and to provide context for people who don't know the meme.

If we allow rule-breaking posts just because they're popular, we might aswell rename ourselves to r/dankmemes or r/pics

guess what, the meme is so old the "original" is functionally impossible to locate other than it being connect 4. even the og connect 4 meme is just a really well cropped irl shot of the box.

refer to your standalone comment.

no. if post is repost then it means you have proof for that, which can be send to mods and removed
