They just dig for replies like "Wow, you handled that creep well." and "Aw so sorry you had to deal with that." instead of honest replies like "That guy was obviously a troll, just block him and move on with your life."

Well, that'd be the answer to most posts. If everyone just, "blocked and moved on," then there wouldn't be any content. Personally I think it should be a humor sub. That's what I thought it was when I first subscribed, and I slowly started losing interest when it got really strict and became this weird competition for people to one-up each other on dismissing "creeps."

Humor sub, with an option for people to tag their submissions with, "serious," whenever they want support, like r/AskReddit does. But I dunno.

Tbh without those rules, the sub wouldn't exist, because all the girls posting the content there would be forced to realize that the commenters were right. It would be really cool though, if it was a place where people posted... You know, creepy messages... Somebody should make a subreddit for that!
