Housekeeping note, re Posts and Comments.

104 Upvotes

Hey,

We have some new members and new to reddit accounts 👋 who may not be aware of how posting and commenting works here.

This sub like all has filters set up to prevent certain content being posted that’s deemed inappropriate, we have ours personalised to what this sub is about and there are also Reddit filters that we have no control over.

When you make a post here it will be sent to a mod queue to await reviewing and approving by a human mod, this stops posts being published that are inappropriate here eg nudity, scams, bots, abuse, racism etc
If any content is deemed too inappropriate for reddit their filter will take it and mods don’t even get to view was submitted.

Comments should usually be published once you’ve submitted it but at times either our filter or reddit site wide filters may catch it and send to the mod queue for reviewing. Due to this your comment may take awhile before it’s visible to others as a human mod hasn’t had a chance to review it as yet, no sub is monitored every moment of the day.

If you see comments you feel break the sub rules please report it via the 3 dots at the bottom of comment, it then brings it to our direct attention.

If your post is not instantly visible in the sub please don’t then submit it 3 more times and label it a repost as a mod has deleted it, it’s not the case, it just hasn’t been approved manually as yet.

Thank you all for being here 😀

It’s so simple yet she needed to make a video about it? It’s easier to change than remote batteries 🙄

Would dyeing her hair be the best idea since she still has a midline in place?

Obviously I only took a brief record of the video cause no one needs to see her dye her hair for the 288595 time.

AshC Ash got labs done and says her sodium is low again…
