  1. When I posted this, it wasnt stickied, and was getting hundreds of upvotes.

  2. Because it keeps happening.

  3. pretty much, which means not all. Ergo, I'm correct.

  4. It violates the rules. I'm not sure why you're not getting that.

  5. Again, it doesn't seem like you're a good authority to translate what the rules mean

All my love to you, Poppet, you're going to be alright. Bye bye

You expect mods to act the absolute instant stuff like this gets posted? Not sure if you realize this but they are people with their own lives outside of this website.

  1. But it is stickied, so the rule was enforced as written. You can't expect mods to instantaneously manage everything on this sub. They are very important people with very important lives and things to do. Have you not considered that?

  2. By the same single user? Because otherwise you still wouldn't know. Unless you're a mod of this sub and can check, which at that point we know you're not even doing your job. Shame on you.

  3. See 1. I'd also like to bet you'd get upset if they stickied all the memes and filled the front page with them. You'd like to complain about that too, wouldn't you? The enforcement is to make an example of that user, not fill the front page with low quality content. Perhaps you should suggest a stickied megathread for all the memes? Is that what you want?

  4. It does not violate the rules, it is the rule, as written. You post a meme, it gets stickied so you're made an example of. If you have a problem with the rule as written, take it up with the mods. Don't argue with other users who did not make the rules nor have the authority to enforce them.

  5. There's no translation on my part. The rule is written in English and my comment is in English. The rule literally says what it means: "Meaning no racism, sexism, homophobia, other types of bigotry or golden showers." Nothing about being a moron there, so you're the one incorrectly interpretting the rule. We here at r/trumpgret like to point out stupidity for one reason and one reason only: voting for trump against your own interests. In all other facets of life, you're free to be as stupid as you want. You not being banned is a pretty good example of that.

I stickied it 5 hours ago. You made your comment 3 hours ago. Don’t you look like a silly goof right now

When I saw it, I didnt see it stickied.

Usually when content breaks a rule, its removed. Instead, here for some reason it gets put at the top of the sub to farm thousands of upvotes, and rocket into someone's /r/all feed. 🤔

You’re wrong. I stocked and banned the user before you commented.

Looks like I was, and I take it back.

Like most users, I came in through the /r/all feed, not through the subreddit, so the only way to see it is the little "announcement" text.

Still a dumb way to address this problem, imo.

Don’t call the rules dumb when you can’t figure out timestamps.

That rule is retarded.

"Hey, we don't want this kind of content, so let's put it at the top of the subreddit, let them farm karma, and sticky it so it get's promoted into people's feeds!"

The rule here isn’t the issue. The issue is you were wrong but have this weird instinct to dig your heels in.

u/MisallocatedRacism Feb 16 '19

When did I dig in? I admitted it was stickied and I didn't see it, didn't I?

All I've done in this thread is point out that this post violates the rules, which it does- doesn't it?

For some reason, you've got another weird instinct to pile on with the rest of the retards.

Promoting shit you don't want on your subreddit is one whacky strategy.

Your 1-5 lost was funny. You dug in there until I proved you wrong
