What happened to poe Reddit?
|
What happened is that on reddit a small group of people moderate a large amount of subreddits.
And now they are upset that reddit (which is bleeding money) wants to be compensated for third parties accessing their servers (and making lots of money with that). So they locked down all the subreddits they are moderating, it is really annoying. I think either someone else has to take control of the poe subreddit or a new one has to be made. The moderators are hurting a lot of communities, much more than they are hurting reddit. " Times change, Reddit might now like that alternative more than having a small amount of random people moderate all of their important subreddits.

It's amusing watching the disconnect of those that dislike the "cesspool" of reddit but at the same time wanting to browse reddit.

" The direct quote from the reddit ToS is "You may not perform moderation actions in return for any form of compensation, consideration, gift, or favor from third parties;" Its a legal minefield for GGG staff to have moderator access to the subreddit.

is the reddit community going to allow to stay as hostage on this protest?
you can create a new place on the same website or post here.. the entire reddit community is somewhat being hold back by what? 5-10 people that are high with power? "Parade your victories, hide your defeats. Mortals are so insecure." Once you break the cycle of fear no angels or demons can whisper you their sweet nothing words. poe2 = ruthless 2.0.

" You had plenty of time to volunteer to be a moderator :) |

The same people/mods are throttling discussion and criticism of it here
|
|
" How. How do they have any ability to "throttle" discussions on the official PoE forums? |

Honestly, the POE reddit is nothing more than a toxic hive of shill accounts. The mod's banned anyone with constructive criticism or dissenting opinions about the game there within a matter of days of their last round of rule changes.
Even if they permanently put the lid on that sewer, nothing of value would be lost at all. |

" Reddit won't even remove kiddy porn, what in the world makes you think they'd ever take any action about the POE sub ? |

I hope that Soyddit won't ever come back. Official forums should be main mean of communication for GGG. Not to mention that using clean, categorized forums is incomparably better than garbage dump of Soyddit or Facebook groups. Yes, I'm missing the old internet.
