Do you mean those bumpy panels at the sidewalk crossings? If it’s what I’m thinking you”re talking about- those aren’t actually anti-slip surfaces but rather texture signals for blind people to ID sidewalk crossings.

There was an official discord. But from what others tell me it’s now a ghost town with spambots.

Yup, I got banned from the discord for I guess bullying? Idk I was never told why.

And then I was muted in modmail for pointing out that all the weird claims being made were straight up false or unverifiable by anyone else.

Hi! I’m another recently removed mod.

Any other mod can confirm that I have been spending the past year repeatedly asking for clarification on the rules and for the sidebar rules to be updated. As mods we were told to do things that weren’t even mentioned in the mod ruleslist.

I mentioned this in a removed comment but for a long time ticktock videos straight up were not allowed (not in the rules list) and then we were given a set of guidelines where ticktock videos would be allowed- but again those guidelines are still not in the rules.

Another recent issue was one was rule 1. There’s been a shift overtime in the headmod’s stance on what constitutes a bannable insult, but these changes again were never discussed with the mods nor were they put into the rules. Common sense would dictate that rule one means not to be unacceptably rude, however the head mod now intends for rule 1 to mean no insults at all.

I got in trouble on the discord for calling someone a “dingbat”. You calling someone a “baby” is a bannable offense now.

Oh it’s so much worse than that. Just got removed from the discord :(

Nope, mods are still active here. Feel free to shoot us a message in things about the subreddit you are unhappy about.

Edit: haha never mind. 🙃

Haha anyone else remember dissecting owl pellets in science class?

Apparently this whole thing is the result of just one guy. Even the local politicians have backed out of the parade because of his insistence on bigotry.

Rule 1 - No intolerance, dog whistles, violence or petty behavior

(a). Intolerance will result in a permanent ban. Toxic language including referring to others as animals, subhuman, trash or any similar variation is not allowed.

(b). No dog whistles.

(c). No inciting violence, advocating the destruction of property or encouragement of theft.

(d). No petty behavior. This includes announcing that you have down-voted or reported someone, picking fights, name calling, insulting, bullying or calling out bad grammar.

Nope. You’re still wrong.

When was the last time we had anyone who did prioritize parks? Green spaces are so underrated.

Which is why a efficient public transportation should be universal. However public transportation in the US routinely has funding cut in favor of the convenience of wealthy drivers.

Heck off with your concern trolling.

Driving is a privilege not a right. If you are incapable of safely operating a vehicle you have no business being behind the wheel.

What point of view exactly? That users with little to no previous activity in this subreddit go to certain posts to drop slurs and such is something that shouldn’t be tolerated?

Correction, this post won’t get locked because it will not attract the hoards of rule breaking brigaders that forced us to lock those other posts. :)

Iirc wasn’t the takeaway that road design encouraging speed is the reason? Never could get behind this reason as plenty of car-into-building crashes involve drivers starting up their parked cars.

That awkward moment when a sports group shares an acronym with a hate group....

Was the bus full?
