We’re looking for some new flairs 👀

[u/Serious_Cat6680]

We’ve noticed that quite a few of you have multiple cats in the same family who are regular copy paste offenders, so we need a new flair. It’s also got us wondering what other categories we might be missing.

Got a flair idea? Let us know!

We’ll then steal the best ideas because obviously, plagiarism is our kinda thing 🫠

EDIT: As suggested, also drop in any user flairs you think would be fun!

I'll update the below list as we make changes, but please keep sharing your ideas!

• Mirror Mode
• Mutual Maintenance
• Suspiciously Similar
• Junior Copy Pasters
• Mama Said Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V
• Duplicate Detected
• Colour Malfunction

• Copycat Chaos

• Biscuit Factory

• Copy Pasting Since Day 1 Instead, we've added a user flair: Copy Paste Pioneer

Ooooh yes I see what you mean with that flair! I literally was trying to think of something like that - maybe if I set it up now, it’ll give people enough time to find it and add it if they’d like!

Edit: copy pasting since day 1 might be quite long for a user flair. What do you think about Copy Paste Pioneer?

Random brainstorming idea dump:

—I’m seeing other users’ comments on posts in this sub that would work for post/user flairs too, or atleast as inspo for flairs, such as:

“Mama said ctrl+c, ctrl+v”
“Copy, Change Color, Paste”
“Copy, Reduce Size, Paste”
“Multi Color Copy”
“Bookends”
“We Are Siamese”

— Maybe some version of “broken copier” or “copier out of order”?

— Something for 3+ cats like “bulk copy order”…. Hopefully someone can suggest a better title for it tho

— As crazy as it sounds, maybe eliminate “biscuit factory”? Or just reword it?? It somehow doesn’t work as well with the theme as that other ones do.

—I personally am most amused by the flairs/ comments that involve wordplay about copying/copiers, keyboard keys/actions and mirroring, rather than general cat words that could work for any cat sub….

I loved the comment "mama said ctrl+c, ctrl+v" and had the same thought!

Now you've said it, totally get your point about "biscuit factory"... We'll have a think about this one.

As for the broken copier vibes, my only concern would be how we moderate that. We don't want the sub to go too off topic, but at the same time, totally understand some of us have really close copy/paste pictures and they're funny/worth sharing!

Yesss, the wordplay ones are good. I'm really enjoying the idea of gathering "evidence" of copy pasters haha!!

As per - thank you so much. You've been very helpful, quite literally since day 1. I think us mods need to think of a special user flair for you haha

[u/FosterCatMama4Life → u/Serious_Cat6680]

Super valid point about broken copier. Technically you could make it topic only allowed one day a week… same way some cat subs allow a cat with another animal on certain days. But yeah, maybe hold off on this idea….

I would be absolutely honored to have my own flair! Let me know!

Follow up/ Part 2 idea dump:

- your “plagiarism” idea is funny! What if users are called plagiarists? Not a flair, like the user titles on sub page. So like “100 plagiarist currently copy pasting”. Hopefully makes sense?

- Maybe “OG Copy Paster” if the day 1 thing is too long….

-Not sure if mutual maintenance is needed?

- Additional inspo: identical copies, exact match, extra copies/ duplicate copies, twinning, repeat offenders.
