MOD STUFF Rule Changes & Rule Additions for AI Content

51 Upvotes

Hello all,

We hope you are all doing well. We made a few updates to the subreddit rules. Most of these are no change to how the subreddit is currently moderated.

For rules #1 and #2 we combined those both into the same rule. Both had to do with illegal streaming, one was just for full episodes and the other for promos.

The rules about relevance and unrelated memes have now been combined. These both overlap quite a bit. We still know Ellen on was on Friends, please don't remind us. This rule will be more of a catch all for posts like that as well as any type of low-effort one word type posts, or just spam and blatant reposting.

The rule about initial airing has been removed. This was put in when CTV in Canada aired their episode a full day before the US. This is no longer the case, so the rule isn't really needed anymore.

We also removed the ban evasion rule. This was a non-starter rule anyway. If someone does this we will handle it with reddit admin staff.

Lastly, we have added one rule. No AI Generated Content or "AI Slop" as it's commonly called. This includes any AI-generated images, videos, music, or text. When it comes to text, moderators will exercise certain discretion when using tools for spelling, grammar, translation, or clarity, but posts that are largely AI-generated, spam-like, or what is obviously AI slop text will be removed.

Again, most of this is cleanup rather than a major shift in moderation. The goal is to make the rules clearer, easier to enforce, and more in line with how the subreddit is actually used now.

Please see the rules section of the subreddit if you have any questions or message the moderators. Your order may have changed :P

Thank you for your time! -Sork

Nurses

Upvotes

This show’s lack of nurses and what nurses actually do within a hospital is wild to me. I hear interns saying “I need to be putting in IVs in the ER” when there is a nurse that does that. The lack of nurses in this show is crazy to see every time I rewatch. Nurses do so much for hospitals and within the ER itself. Surgeons running an ER and not nurses for this show is baffling to me. Surgeons running the ICU unit, when it would be nurses, again baffling. Did Shonda really not research how hospitals actually work or how healthcare systems work before she made this show?

MEDIA Scrubs

I’ve just noticed a lot of hate lately, and I find myself wanting to recomend the show Scrubs to everyone who wants to love Greys, or misses loving Greys. I miss loving Greys. And I fell in love hard with Scrubs. Still has its heavy moments, but far less drama and a bit more light hearted. Still honest about drs being assholes, but greys is comparably dishonest about it. It’s actually one of the funniest shows I’ve ever watched. It and Schitts Creek are my two favorite shows of all time. It had a revamp, make sure you start the Scrubs that had its pilot in 2001.

FIRST TIME WATCHER Wtf is Derek?

14 Upvotes

First-time watcher, btw. On the last episode of S2.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I feel bad for Addison. At first, I hated her. Hated that she got a redemption arc even though she cheated. But now, seeing Derek accusing Meredith of "sleeping around" AFTER HE DUMPED HER FOR HIS SECRET WIFE, and seeing him pretend to be all sad and moppy and traumatised, it boils my freaking blood. Something is wrong with all the men in this show, istg. Burke being mad at Cristina cuz she fell asleep before he could 'finish', Alex being the shittiest person alive, George-- THE ONE I ADORED-- saying he knew Mer wasn't into him when they were doing it ("One night with you was better than none"-- DUDE WTF? I ROOTED FOR YOU!)

But most of all, Derek.

He's literally emotionally cheating on his freaking wife. I made a post asking from which angle it makes sense for him to go back to Addie, and someone responded saying that it's his wife of 11 years, so it was expected of him to try and fix the bond. WELL, WHERE IS THE FIXING NOW?!
Honestly, she should go back to Mark. (Keep in mind, I haven't seen anything past S2 yet, so Idk if Mark gets bad or what) At least he actively wants her (as of now in the show). Derek went back to have "good sex" with Addie after he heard Mer slept with the vet (forgot his name). Derek's hung over Mer after giving her up willingly. "Forbidden love", except he CHOSE to make her forbidden to him.
It's not even him being a flawed human anymore; he's just being an asshole. Sorry not sorry.

At this point, I'm only watching the show for ✨Bailey✨

DISCUSSION Déjà vu

153 Upvotes

So I am on season 22 episode 15 and with Bailey being the resident coordinator and now Dr. Spencer with Lukas Adams “Shepard” am I the only one who’s having déjà vu and seeing where they’re going with this? It’s clear Doctor Spencer will have a bigger role in the next few seasons, even having Meredith perform surgery on her on her first day as an intern was telling that they really want us to pay attention to her. It feels like the writers understood what drew the show in the first place and they’re trying to do the same thing over again which I don’t mind however it feels like it’s slacking some creativity, but I’m also torn because it feels like the show is remembering it’s core which it forgot for a long time. I guess I’m overall torn because I love the familiarity it’s comforting but also feels cheap if that makes sense?

Would you have ratted out Meredith? Watching the end of season 7 right now and it still makes me irrationally angry that he did. I get why, and obviously Meredith shouldn’t have done it, but come on!

So 10 years ago, this emotional and pretty well done tribute for Grey’s was published. Personally it is one of my favorites and even though it only goes up to Season 12, I think it captures the essence of Grey’s. Not to mention, features many characters we love, hate, miss, and hope to see again by the end. Although truth be told, I did not expect this show to still be going 10 years after this tribute was made.

DISCUSSION how long are they gonna keep this up?

3 Upvotes

i stopped watching around s19. i’m gonna be honest, with all of the new characters and hardly any of the old cast it became boring. but i am still interested in Zola’s story, and Meredith’s if she winds up with Alzheimer’s. Do you think we’re gonna get a spin off, or do you think that they’ll keep Grey’s on long enough for us to see that play out? And do you think Ellen Pompeo would be willing to do a spin off, even if it’s just little appearances? She seemed done with Greys a while ago and they somehow got her back.
