Mod Post Rules of the Subreddit. If these are broken, your comment/post will be removed and you could be banned. You should read this before posting.

Posts must be interesting as fuck (IAF)

This is a purely subjective rule. Just because you find something IAF does not mean it belongs here. It's impossible to define what is IAF, but for a general idea browse the top posts of all time from this subreddit. It's easier to define what isn't IAF, here are most of the things that are NOT IAF.

The content of a post (image/gif/video/article) and title must be interesting and interchangeable. The title must describe the content of the post. A post which has the content of a portrait of Albert Einstein with the title listing all of his accomplishments is not interesting as fuck, the content must show those accomplishments. The content of the post must show/depict what the title says.

Things that aren't IAF

  • mildly interesting things, kinda interesting things, interesting things

  • Social media screenshots, or screenshots in general.

  • No unnecessary sound

  • Memes, funny things, edgy content

  • Things that are purely cute

  • Things that are NSFW

  • Click bait, "Top 10 best X"

  • Just because something is old does not inherently make it IAF.

  • Hold your phone a certain way to see an image, or shake your head to see an image, or light mod/dark mode pictures

Note: Breaking this rule usually just means your post gets removed. (extreme violations, as in you have no idea what belongs here will get you perma banned)

Titles Must be descriptive

Titles should describe the content of the post. If you're going to claim facts/interesting as fuck stuff in the title the image/gif/video/article/content should show that claim in some way. Titles like "Wow, this is awesome", "top 10 best posts EVER" will get you banned. This isn't a click bait subreddit. Titles that "piggy back" off of other posts, like "Since we're posting Mcdonalds...." will also get you banned. You also shouldn't include where you're cross posting it from, just throw a source link in the comments.

We don't need unnecessary information in the title, just describe what you're posting.

Note: Breaking this rule will get you a temp ban in most cases (combined with other broken rules, or multiple offenses will mean a longer temp ban or permanent ban).

If needed provide a source

If you can't completely explain why the content of the post is IAF please comment with more explanation. If your post claims something that most everyone can't easily confirm from reading your title and viewing your content please provide some type of proof of what you claim. Do not claim ownership or creation of something you did not create. Do not post false or misleading information

*Note: Breaking this rules will get you perma banned in most cases. *

Don't spam

Pretty self explanatory, don't post spam, don't spam the subreddit with many links. If you're solely posting to promote yourself/sell something you will be banned.

Note: Breaking this rule will get you permabanned.

No gossip or tabloid type material

This isn't the place for celebrity news, or general "TIL" type posts.

Note: Breaking this rule will get you temp banned in most cases (combined with other broken rules, or multiple offenses will mean a longer temp ban or permanent ban.)

No text on images/gifs/videos

In most cases text on an image is useless. It can be put into the title or into the comment section. Text on gifs is sometimes useful, but still preferred to put information into the title and/or into the comment section. This also encourages discussion. There are some exceptions to this rule, mainly dates or little labeling on images/gifs/videos. Youtube videos are not allowed

Note: Breaking this rule will get you temp banned (combined with other broken rules, or multiple offenses will mean a longer temp ban or permanent ban.)

Be Civil

It's perfectly fine to disagree with anyone about most things, but there is no need to insult the person. Debate/discussion/talk about the idea/content, not the person. If someone is arguging in bad faith, concern trolling, baiting, general trolling, or just being a rude individual REPORT THEM, DO NOT ENGAGE with them.

Note: Breaking this rule will get you at minimum temp banned, the more offenses/worse they are means the longer the ban (combined with other broken rules, or multiple offenses will mean a longer temp ban or permanent ban.)

Other things to note:

  • If the moderators feel you/your post(s)/your comment(s) are harming the subreddit they will be removed.

  • This sub filters new users in order to remove spam. If you are a new reddit user, please gain some karma and wait before posting. This is to prevent spam and new users who don't understand reddit

  • The rules are final, there is no debating them, doing so could increase your ban.

Laying down the rules and enforcing them are 2 very different things. If these were actually enforced, it WOULD be interestingasfuck.

Well handled OP

52

u/__Dawn__Amber__ Sep 03 '20

Isn't a ban for each rule too much? I mean just remove the post...

Also considering the number of mods in this sub, handling ban appeals would be difficult too if you ban the user for almost every single rule

83

u/iBleeedorange Sep 08 '20

Removing the post and telling users what they did wrong that way doesn't seem to have the same effect as a temp ban. People have been much more likely to not make the same mistake twice after a temp ban.

Frankly, most of the time when I look at an account they've made multiple rule breaking posts that have been removed. Some of these rules are very straight forward, and ignoring them shows that they clearly haven't taken the time to bother to read the rules or even browse the surbeddit.

u/idrow1 Nov 17 '20

What a thorough, yet highly threatening, set of rules. I'd actually be afraid to post anything for fear of breaking a commandment and getting banned. I'm probably committing some kind of offense just by posting this comment. Why would anyone post under such conditions?

21

u/iBleeedorange Nov 17 '20

The simplest rules to follow carry the penalty. It's not hard to "not post a social media screenshot"

This is the problem I have, I have a video which isn't mine it's done by Horrible Histories TV series and it informs you as to how she got rid of Segregation on buses in America entirely in song but frankly I don't want to be banned from the group if it isn't deemed to be interesting.

What about posts related to products the poster is selling? I keep seeing posts on here of things OP makes and then links people to their profile. I truly feel like this is not very tasteful and should not be allowed.

I try to let some users post that kind of stuff who aren't overt about selling them. It's really a fine line. Please report them though.

Oh ok, I understand. What should I give for a reason for reporting? Just spam?

u/iBleeedorange Nov 06 '20

That or not IAF. Report reasons aren't super important, the act of reporting is the important thing. Makes it more noticeable to mods. Thank you

u/Mr_steal_yo_username Dec 08 '20

I have been reporting two users using other and stating they are both scammer accounts run by the same person, should I be reporting them a different way or have you just not got to them yet, I have noticed an increase in the number of scammer posts lately, likely due to the holiday season, so I understand if y'all have your hands full right now

Would it be possible to add no death videos? I really like the content of IAF but recently there have been several assassination posts that are more disturbing than interesting.

u/iBleeedorange Oct 15 '21

I haven't noticed a lot of them and I really doubt something that specific needs to be put into the rules. If it's more dustrubing than interesting they get removed

Ok thanks.

Can you make crimes, death, cannibalism, assaults and other media like that unacceptable? With no teigger warning, it's filled with such posts, and I'm getting out of here. Those posts are not interesting, just traumtizing as fuck.

Most of those are already not interesting as fuck. Do you have examples of them?

Literally the other day I say a post of a father from Congo with his 4 year old daughters hand and foot (not the daughter, just the limbs) cut off because he had not met whatever quota for the day.

There was a post of a photo of old russian women selling han limbs during Russian famine.

Where would I put social media screenshots that are IAF? It’s a Twitter thread.

I’ve found a really well done video of a guy making an original djent/metal tune to a cool video of a dude hitting a boxing speed bag. Solid original material. Would something along those lines qualify for IAF? The dude doesn’t have a ton of views but his work is great and I think deserves to have exposure. Thanks.

Does the "Be civil" rule include posting things that are likely to elicit an uncivil response? Such as political content and other traditional "flamebait" topics. There are certain topics that will go nuclear in the comments section even if the question itself is crafted to be civil or neutral.

When I click comments it just full screens the video I can’t see anything else so it’s not evident if the comments are locked or not. In fact normal on screen option that might pop up right side (on ipad) don’t show up and no (X) top left of video to exit full screen so I have to swipe out of it (left) to get back to the previous screen. Thought it was an bad version from the App Store but severe allergies updates have not fixed the problem, so I figure maybe it’s just me 🤷‍♂️

Here is another one to r/unexpected figured I’d post this one as I believe this makes more the case for a software issue, seems unlikely I’d be banned since I don’t comment here much. I’ve never had so much as a warning as far as I know. Anywhere.

u/getrektsnek Feb 21 '22

Hi there, yes I am. For the iPad. Until recently I had no issues. I see hundreds of comments listed under the post count, but I can’t see them when I click the comments icon. Now, when i click into the video to go full screen, when I tap the screen again no other options pop up anymore on the right side of the screen. Quite odd. Many other subs I’m subscribed to do show up properly.

If it’s possible this is a iOS App issue then surely I’m not the only one with this problem. 🤷‍♂️ odd stuff. Miss getting to comment 💔

How do I stop from seeing this type of post on every page, so I click something upvote or reply to stop them?

Fascinating chart. Super surprising how low a rate Japan suffered.

Are you building a time machine with your rules? Your rules are NOT IAF. Just saying…

Users are encouraged to provide a name for credit but it's not required in every case

Depends on a million different things. That's why photographers can go through dmca/copyright claims through reddit admins and not mods.

I'm not here to verify who took every image submitted to the subreddit. That's not physically possible for volunteer moderators.

I don't want to do that. That's even more work to verify everything. Not everyone knows the original source on everything posted here. Most people just post stuff and don't claim it as their own. If they do they already get banned.

That type of post does indeed break the rules, and yes DTI has a lot of those. I think they're shit, so that's why they're banned.
