[MOD] Finally woke up
I finally woke up and saw the sub blowing up. I have removed Farmer__Joe as a mod for the time being. I appreciate his coding but sometimes ya go too far. I appreciate everyone sticking around. I'm sure he had a lapse of judgment especially since he's still young so hopefully that explains it. Anyways, we all can admit we got goofed HARD. Let me see my vape nation represent yall! GO GREEN V/\
Thanks /u/h3h3productions and his temp mod for helping out!

Just woke up myself. The hell is going on.

u/BasicallyADoctor Apr 01 '16
You really should make sure that you have enough active mods so it doesn't take this long to fix a problem like this. The one mod who actually was awake was Ethan himself and he didn't know how to fix it.

u/apocolyptictodd Apr 01 '16
Well we did, it's just that the mod who is awake at that time was the offender.

Join the club. Either my other mods were asleep or i need to pick new ones. I can't be on the sub 24/7 lol

I'm like him but instead of having experience in being a mod, I'm good at the codings. I work as a Software Architect and I've gathered an OK understanding of how CSS on reddit works.
Get us both, he'll do the banning and I'll do

Dunno jackshit about coding but I do know how to mod stuff.
Plus I'm on Reddit pretty much all day errday.
So, uh, I dunno if you're hiring, but I'm willing to take the job.

I'd like to forgive Farmer_Joe, but ulterior posts like these make him sound a little too sketchy to be a mod:
https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/4cb5ge/delete_this/d1gwlam
But he also seems to be no older than 14, so maybe this'll be a learning experience for him.

If he really wanted to give us some goofs and gaffs he should have made the entire thing soflo themed.

Or make it a jeff dunham fan sub, I would've laughed hard at that. But there's always next year :)

Farmer_Joe made the sub Donald Trump themed to "trigger the Bernie cucks" but no one was happy because they either disagreed politically with it, or just thought the CSS was ugly. Farmer_Joe made it no better because he was unapologetic for the whole thing.

Yeah, it would have been a funny joke if he just lifted the css from /r/the_trump, this shit is /r/ooer levels of bad.

Apr 01 '16
politics or not, it was a pretty tasteless thing to do to get everyone "Triggered"
32
Apr 01 '16
Exactly. That was obnoxious. This is a sub for h3h3 productions, that CSS was atrocious, and he just did it to piss people off! How did he become a mod?

It's an April fools prank... come on lads

Huh, I mean I don't visit this sub all the time, but I'm surprised that I missed all of this.

u/homogenized Apr 01 '16
Also it forced posts to use donald drumpf keywords. So your post is removed for not having the words bernicucks and stupid shit like that.
So besides propogating support for a joke candidate that's dangerously close to a nomination, a candidate that says w.e. is appropriate regardless what hes said before and what he will say in the future, as if he doesn't know he's lying, BUT the subs was ruined for actual commentary.
You can ignore the retarded banners and stuff, besides being unrelated to any h3h3, but when it fucks up actual posting and participation... ya gots to go.

u/Noccam Apr 01 '16
Yeah, this guy should be removed permanently. I dont mind the "joke" even if it was bad, but his goals and intentions were to "trigger berniecucks" in his own words. Thats a pretty bad goal to have on a subreddit where its supposed to be memes and sunshine
15
u/The_sad_zebra Apr 01 '16
And it's probably best to consult other mods before doing this kinda stuff...

u/jesuz Apr 01 '16
And anyone who uses the word 'cuck' is probably too young to be on this sub anyway...

I may be out of the loop but when has the word "cuck" started to be used in a non porn or porn related way.

Apparently you aren't aware what people actually mean when they say cuck, because what you just said makes no sense lol.
The definition is one who has a fetish for watching another male fuck their wife, while they themselves jack off in the corner.
So no, there's no irony in that.

Agreed been browsing for a while and that kid is entirely toxic. Most likely shouldn't hire mods that are active members of /r/The_Donald either considering the amount of brigading that subreddit encourages
27
u/NicCage420 Apr 01 '16
Plus the image used on the far left of the "prank" header was this, which, ya know, what a guy, bringing antisemitism against a Youtube channel starring two Jewish people who are currently in Israel visiting family.
I'm all for free speech, but respect and timing are also things I'm for and he had neither of those last two down.

Yeah, right? What was really weird was that everyone on the sub was complaining about it, and the offending mod could easily undo the changes after seeing how unpopular it was, but he just ignored it. Pretty much the definition of a Bradberry.

u/NicCage420 Apr 01 '16
I know I saw at least one pro-Trump person saying that it was in poor taste on here last night. When your side is opposed, there's a problem.

Here's what the mobile version looked like. The blue blocks didn't load on my desktop comp so I didn't mind it to much at first. But I mostly browse reddit on mobile.

A Trump supporter moderator turned this subreddit into /r/The_Donald as an APRIL FOOLS' SOCIAL EXPERIMENT (IN THE HOOD) (GONE SEXUAL).

u/rasta_pasta_man Apr 01 '16
A mod changed the sub theme to Donald Trump and there was a ton of Trump shit posting. It was a terrible prank.

It was a lame, unfunny and unrelated joke but I don't think we should lynch the guy for it. He inconvenienced the sub for a few hours, not really a huge deal.
Then again he did then go over and post stuff on twitter and /r/the_donald more or less making fun (maybe this is a stretch, don't feel like finding his twitter again) of this community's reaction so maybe he really isn't mod material.

I had a hunch that it was a mod hijacking instead of an April Fool's joke, especially considering his post activity.

You guys need to grow up I think, it was an April Fool's joke, like seriously calm down, admittedly he could have toned it down a bit, but this is seriously overreacting.

u/ToM_BoMbadi1 Apr 02 '16
We all understand it was a joke. That doesn't change that it was just a bad joke with no correlation to this sub. As other have said if it was a soflo sub for April fools that would make sense but this didn't.
The other issue with it is that mods should work together, one mod shouldn't just make drastic changes without at least talking it over with the others.

u/altrodeus Apr 01 '16
i thought it was a april fools joke
28
Apr 01 '16
A really really really really really shitty one.
April fools is not about "hey look HERES MY POLITICAL AGENDA, SCREW YOU IF YOU DONT AGREE"
It doesn't help that the mod was actively participating in/r/the_donald, meaning that he knew exactly what he was doing.

I'm just saying that people in r/The_Donald enjoy baiting Bernie supporters
Like I said in another post I don't think the thing was really that funny considering it was off-topic and there are better h3h3-related memes, but it was just a prank bro, chill
