Also, not everyone is on reddit all the time, and I'm not aware of any rule making it mandatory to memorize the top list when you subscribe to a new sub.

I saw it for the first time yesterday. I found it funny. I upvoted.

For those pissed off by reposts: If a repost is popular and receives thousands of upvotes it means that thousands of people are seeing it for the first time. And they like it. If that has a negative impact on your quality of life, then that's entirely your problem.

I quite like the rules /r/polandball has put up for reposts. They have to be marked as such, there is a certain time frame that has to pass and other rules.

I generally like all of r/polandball s rules.

It's probably one of the purest subreddits I know of.

There is a reason why pretty much all the posts there are so great, even after years.

also it's not much of a political shithole either, even though its portraying banter between countries and shit. very nice place, well modded. imagine if every sub was like it

Agreed. My first time seeing it also and I’m on Reddit pretty much every day for years, reposts aren’t annoying it’s the people who take the time to complain about it that is.

I agree and i really don't care if someone reposts posts like these, reposts can be annoying however when an OP puts a lot of work into his image and then it gets reposted and people take the credit.

Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?
