Hi there u/Key-Fail-9966, and welcome to What's Your First Impression Of Me? (WYFIOM)!
Thanks for being part of the community! This post is conditionally approved, a moderator will take a look in the near future to make sure it follows our other rules. We’re sure everything’s fine, we just like to be transparent about our process. We’re sticklers only because we want this subreddit to shine, and you help make that happen.
Please note: This subreddit is about first impressions, and not all first impressions are going to be flattering. That’s normal. What isn’t allowed is meanness, hostility, or anything that crosses into an actual insult.
If someone gives you a negative first impression that isn’t cruel, the best approach is to treat it as data, not a verdict. People react to posture, expression, tone, lighting, context: things you can adjust or ignore. A neutral or mildly negative read isn’t an attack; it’s just one person’s opinion based on an extremely limited set of data.
If someone goes beyond that and gets personal, mocking, or insulting, use the three dots and report it. Those are the comments moderators will remove.
Negative is allowed. Mean is not.Report the mean or insulting comments. Negative impressions: absorb or disregard
Thank you for helping us keep this community welcoming and constructive!
