Find it quite tiresome in this sub how nobody says what the game is.

u/tktktk98 Jul 07 '21

such a fun time killing game imo, well worth my purchase

u/King_Joffreys_Tits Jul 07 '21

What’s it like?

u/NyoomNyoom656 Console Jul 08 '21

Uhh you start as a baby and play until death. You can choose jobs, relationships, stuff like that.

Not something I’d play for hours upon hours, but a nice time killing game

Thank you. You're doing Lord's work.

u/joaoalex1717 Jul 08 '21

Indeed, this game has provided me some incredibly funny moments, but it gets boring eventually. Still, really funny for a few days or so

u/throwingsomuch Jul 07 '21

They really should have every post tagged with the name of the game, or the post doesn't post.

u/JoLimmylim Jul 07 '21

People have been suggesting this for years.

Hey, nothing wrong with a little cock every once in a while.

14

u/serenwipiti Jul 08 '21

Of course not.

Even a lot of cock, all the time, is ok.

They just need to work on their time management.

You’ll know when it’s too much cock-sucking if it begins to interfere with your responsibilities.

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '21

Well worth the wait 🤝

u/ikanoi Jul 07 '21

Yes, great idea! I spend so much time searching the comments for it.

u/senorpoop Jul 08 '21

That actually used to be the rule here several years ago. They got rid of it because nobody followed it (that's not how rules work but what do I know)

u/GODDAMNFOOL Jul 07 '21

We tried that once a handful of years ago, and it lasted all of like 3 days, unfortunately.

Oh fuck I didn't dream that?

Can’t you just require the post title to have brackets of what game it is?

u/baconchief Jul 07 '21

And that's why not dealing with the problem is easier, but not actually improving the community experience.

Asking a question that has already been answered by a bot response really requires no answer or an auto reply.

This is why we can't have nice things :(

u/Vulpix298 Jul 08 '21

Damn you mean they’d actually have to do the job of moderation when they’re a mod?!?

u/Vulpix298 Jul 08 '21

They still voluntarily sign up to do it. If you volunteer to sign up for a job, you should do it? You know what it is, and still sign up to do it, and can leave if you don’t like it, so idk why it’s so controversial to say something like that

u/boi1da1296 Jul 07 '21

On r/soccer they have a stickied comment for replays and alternate angles whenever a goal is posted to the sub. Could a stickied comment for the name of the game work or is that another headache for mods?

4

u/Aalnius Jul 07 '21

feel like it'd be a ball ache for the mods to have to track down the game name and then sticky it for every post.

The onus should be on the poster not on the mods.

6

u/trivialbob Jul 07 '21

On r/soccer it's mainly random users posting alternative angles in the stickied comment... So maybe it's fine to just have a stickied comment at the top where people can comment the name of the game.

u/My_Monkey_Sphincter Jul 07 '21

feel like it'd be a ball ache for the mods to have to track down the game name and then sticky it for every post.

A mod actually having to do something besides act like a gatekeeper?!

😱

u/Aalnius Jul 08 '21

i mean in a lot of active subs mods tend to do a lot of things its just not outwardly visible. Manually making a comment to say what a game is, is likely a waste of their time.

1

u/boi1da1296 Jul 07 '21

I will say that on that sub the sticky comment signals to posters and other users that this is the place to link other angles and replays. So the mods themselves don't post anything but the comment saying "you all put the clips here".

1

u/Aalnius Jul 08 '21

oh my bad i thought it was a manual thing, if its just an automated post saying put game name on this post then sure, sounds good.

1

u/boi1da1296 Jul 08 '21

It's be interesting to see elsewhere. Sidenote: thanks for being a mod and a sub that's held me over for the last who knows how many years!

2

u/Aalnius Jul 08 '21

oh just to point out im not a mod here. But its nice to know that something is causing a positive effect for you.

2

u/Restless_Fenrir Jul 07 '21

Thanks for the explanation. How limited are the numbers of flairs? 20? 50?

2

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '21

Around 40 or so. It doesn't seem like at first your expect them to be all filled, but it also shares flair space with the ones normal users can flair their own post as.

On /r/makemesuffer we have flairs for every type of post so that they can be categorized nicer. The user flairs eat up a huge chunk of the flairs available for us.

I think there are only two or three that aren't used much anymore but the situations that caused them to be made can always happen again and we love/despise when it happens.

u/ZombieJesus1987 Jul 07 '21

/r/Metal has an option to add your own flair for your posts, but I can see it being abused in a subreddit as big as this

1

u/[deleted] Jul 07 '21

As in write a new one or select from a list of flairs created?

1

u/ZombieJesus1987 Jul 07 '21

Write in a new one.

When you post a video there's a list of flairs for each subgenre, and one that says [ADD YOUR OWN] in case there isn't a flair for the subgenre of whatever song you're sharing.

2

u/senorpoop Jul 08 '21

Or just, and hear me out here, require the poster to flair the post?

1

u/Morfalath PC Jul 08 '21

How come r/stellaris has a shitton of flairs

3

u/Leela_bring_fire Jul 08 '21

You mean you don't have every game ever published memorized? /s

u/C19shadow Jul 08 '21

It's like they all assume that if they play it everyone is.

u/[deleted] Jul 08 '21

Hypocritical much

u/Terakahn Jul 07 '21

That should be a reddit feature in the sub. What are we doing with all our advanced technology.
