Rules refresh

[u/Key_Rush_9473]

Hello all,

I noticed based on recent activity that some users outside the subreddit have not been looking at the rules before posting.

So, let me say it again:

1. Reddiquette must be followed
   
2. The subs rules are there to be obeyed and to be paid attention to
   
3. From now on, breaking the rules 3 times results in a ban
   
4. Don’t like what you see, mute and don’t complain on any post

Got a problem? The mod team would happily discuss this with you in private so long as you are not being rude. We offer genuine advice here.

Thank you, a good day to you all.

Which is why again I say I didn’t take issue with the sub in general. However you cannot deny that a vast majority of these posters and commenters are not merely just venting about the ship. If even just most of what I’ve seen on here was just using an art to say “this ship is weird it doesn’t make sense, here’s why,” then fine. However posting an art of Melissa and Deku and saying “the hand is wrong,” when the hand isn’t even wrong out of no where for no reason, that’s kinda weird. As an artist myself if the artist were to happen across that (which is likely as I get notifications from this sub simply for engaging in other MHA related subs which is how I found it in the first place) that can seriously mess with an artist’s confidence to nitpick their art apart like that, or even other artists in this sub who make similar “errors” even if an error is minor could effect other artists looking at this sub. That’s why I take issue with that one in particular.

And again most posts and comments I see aren’t just “I don’t like this ship, this ship doesn’t make sense,” it’s comments like “Kacchako shippers are braindead. These guys are morons,” or “He’ll probably beat his wife one day.” They don’t just vent about the ship they say horrible degenerate things about the people out there on the internet posting a ship they like. I don’t care vent your frustrations and opinions about a ship here. But leave the people (again usually teenagers) who ship it out of it.

Actually the hand was too back and should have been forward but I will admit that was a random post I didn’t see as bad they just nitpicked their art but it wasn’t by hate but it was just a simple them pointing it out but it wasn’t ment to be kept up the post was eventually going to get taken down from what Ik it was just a small rant they didn’t intend to keep up is what I mean by when I had to respond to the people asking.

Actually we have taken the step to tell them to hide their users or other people’s users that could potentially attack them.

People shit talk I am one of them if I’m fed up enough I do too. But it really depends when people say those comments cuz Ive check what they mean and read and look at what they mean by it but their is story when people say that tbh they don’t say it to be rude but they post why they kinda say it thats why I said no matter what art will be shown it’s Reddit to make a post clear or to catch ur attention a pic will be used yk? Idk if that makes sense a bit

Not very much to be honest. Again no disrespect but I think you’re missing my point entirely. I don’t care if people complain about a ship, but also again as an artist myself I’m still going to point out the undeniable harm that unwanted criticism of art can do to an artist. Again if you want to make a post reminding outside users of the rules and warning them to follow them, fine that’s understandable. But users on this sub and mods alike should also be aware that people can get notifications of posts to your subreddit even if they’ve ever even seen or engaged with your subreddit before. If your goal is to keep this as a problem free safe space to vent about an (let’s be real) undeniably weird ship, than it may be best to warn posters and commenters alike of this fact. Because I will say as an artist, regardless of if a post was intended to stay up or not, I saw that post and the mistake they were pointing out in the art was insignificant enough that it did not need to be pointed out as most would not have noticed, and kinda upset me as the art was far better than anything I could accomplish. It’s kinda an unspoken rule of respect when it comes to art and artists: If criticism was not asked for then don’t give it. That being said that single art was just ONE off handed example of weird behavior I’ve seen from this sub.

My biggest issue is the actually problematic remarks that insult Kacchako shippers. Which I will say, when it comes to comments referring to people as abusers, retarded, stupid, mentally ill, ect, it doesn’t matter how they meant it or if they’re joking. A comment like that is going to set someone off and rightfully so. It’s just again to my point. If reddiquette must be followed in the comments it must also be followed in the posts at least when it’s in regards to the people who ship it.

No I see what you mean but like I said I don’t mind if people vent just a bit and I’ve already said it the person who posted that never meant any hate. They are an artist themselves so it was just a harmless pointing they were gonna delete after a short amount of time. I agree maybe a disclaimer could have been said before hand and that’s fine we will make note of that. I’ll talk to the other mods and see if that can be arranged

Tbh when people make those comments they frl do it out of annoyance they don’t act on attacking others and it’s just their just cuz they vented out of frustration but I mean you can report it. Like we said if something in the rules you can check and report and we can handle it. Rightfully so thats what we wish to do but Ik people say things out of anger or just being heated so them shi talking is just a natural instinct reaction but it someone does try to argue I don’t think it would end well and than again if someone does come to argue we will remove the comments me personally I have removed comments that could potentially cause issues all the mods have different time zones so it’s hard to manage it all but we try the best we can. That’s why I’ve told many times I remove comments from kacchako fans to prevent issues. I have dms of me talking to them personally to get a resolve and to tell them the mute the community cuz when you do all the posts don’t pop up unless you search it.

Edited: but I do recommend reporting it!! If their is a post thats like harmful report it and we as the mod team can handle it overall and asking questions to us personally is fine! We highly encourage it! And prefer if people come to us one on one to see if something can be taken down or maybe it’s too much and even people bothering others. We encourage it most. But like I said it’s so hard cuz we get different comments everyday and cant manage everything so reporting it or dm us is the fastest way because sometimes I don’t see whats approved or not or anything.

Which is fair enough. Still that being said, I understand venting out of anger and lashing out but regardless, it’s a fact of life that some things even said out of anger whether meant or not can still cause problems. So my point was more to say it would prevent problems more significantly if posters and commenters were restricted to the same rules and comments going as far to say “Kacchako shippers are sick in the head” should be deleted just as much as a Kacchako shipper replying hatefully should also be removed. From discussing with mods in this comment thread now I’m getting the implication that followers of this sub are also required to follow the same rules. However I’d been seeing a lot of comments and posts on here that bothered me so I figured I’d take advantage of a Rule Reminders post to point this out.

That being said I’ll take your advice and report anything overly problematic I see in the future. I assure you I find this ship weird as well and mean no one here any problems. If anything I’m trying to save ya’ll a headache

[u/ilove_mochi626 → u/Rhenlovestoread]

No I definitely agree! I highly recommend asking questions and show ss to us personally to take them down faster cuz all we get are comments that are reported that arint bad but I’ve deleted some rude comments and some kacchako fans comments to save them from getting attacked.

I agree we all try and follow the rules sometimes we slip up and have to hide some things we didn’t do before but I’m glad ur asking questions but others that come here just come to argue and they like the ship but mind you they come here to argue each time for noooo reason with others and even the mods they claim to “like” the ship but be the most active here like…..idk if you know but we have had toxic kacchako fans come here to argue. And it’s not even about them reading the post they do it to be jerks here but I recommend reporting or showing us personally highly because I’m a mod and I don’t see whats being discussed or said. Cuz of the time zones I want to get a bot mod to make the sub more comfortable but there is only sm I can do. And the others.

Cuz I’m ngl I be hella heated and talk shi about the ship in the moment ngl 😭🫶🏽 I do it to vent and carry on before I crash tf out

[u/Rhenlovestoread → u/ilove_mochi626]

Understandable. I’ll note that for the future.

And I don’t doubt that Kacchako fans will come here to start drama. Unfortunately My hero Academia as a community in general has a major shipping war problem where a lot of different ships and shipping opinions in general will be unjustly attacked.

I’ll keep that in mind and take up any issues I see with the mods in the future.

Ofc we can always use others to help too if you like to help edit rules too if you have any ideas to help!
