So yeah... maybe the turtle slowly waking up that he was just a Laptog for reddit and thrown away as soon as they didnt need him anymore ( moderation is allways a volunteer thing and shouldnt be like a 2nd job ).
Turtle is the most drama-seeking person I've seen on Reddit and I've been there a long time. They always seek out drama and then screenshot it and post it to r/CenturyClubDrama. They contribute like 80% of the total posts to that sub. They also post really long rants and then ban the person they're ranting at so the person can't comment back. Don't be like turtle.
That fucking CenturyClub bullshit; I lasted about 2 days after getting invited to the subreddit a few years ago. What a morass of powermod drama queens and groupthink twats. For some god-unknown reason, I got an re-invite during the protest blackouts from one of their mods, no clue why. Because they were going to talk me out of shutting down a +1M sub?
I highly doubt this is anything but a sad attempt at getting some good PR. We've seen other big mods suspended supposedly permanently who suddenly negotiated their way out of it. Reddit has no reason to lose such a great employee, if they did this person would have been banned years ago.
Tbh considering you kinda have to be in the know to be here id imagine turtle would be baned by most communitys here but at the same time you'd think someone who is trying run a good subreddit would also know that turtle is a jack ass
I got banned from a sub for a relatively tame normal opinion about something or other, like a video game or something. Sent a mod mail asking what happened and what could I do to make it right, got muted and then banned from 10 more subs immediately.
I just nuked my 15 year 750k karma account after giving him a piece of mind to each modmail box. I'll absolutely burn the earth before letting some internet loser feel like he runs my life lol.
I got banned from r/entertainment for criticizing Lizzo's outfit when the whole crystal flute nontroversy happened, nothing racial, nothing about her weight or about the flute-playing itself, just that I thought her outfit she was wearing looked trashy. BANNED. Reddit has been on the decline for awhile now. I just wish I could filter out ANY news of Reddit on other sites, it's kind of annoying how much sites like Lemmy.world still lean on Reddit for content instead of trying to do their own thing.
Yea, I've been going cold turkey since 6/11. I thought the whole point was to NOT GO so that Reddit could see how unpopular its decision was. It kind of feels like people are just not bothering with even trying to protest. I'm sure those that stick around will have a series of annual "that's it, I'm done" moments coming in the future as Reddit makes more and more unpopular decisions and people just put up with it because they couldn't even go a few weeks without visiting the site. I've already made my peace with the fact that Reddit is gone and I'm ready to move on. At this point I'd be more conflicted if they actually backed down on their stupid API policy and let 3rd party apps back on.
I nuked my 15 year 750k karma main for less just to spite some butthurt super mod 😂
I keep my account for local use but I wiped out my post and comment history (and got banned from half my subs for using a script to do so which just makes it easier to not use 😂)
But that was the case on Reddit too, if you don't like /r/subreddit, there was nothing stopping you from starting and moderating your own /r/subreddit2.
This website is exploitative garbage with no respect given to all the app makers and third party developers that have kept its decrepit heart beating all this time, submitted by /u/awkwardtheturtle to /u/awkwardtheturtle
/u/spez is a liar and a hypocrite, the admins are two-faced goons, and they are all toxic embarrassments instead of people. They seemed ok when I met them in person (though tiny Spez did seem like he had a lot to compensate for), but promises and assurances from people like chtorrr and redtaboo have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are stooges, not innovators.
Let it all burn to the ground where this useless website belongs
I’m a human volunteer content transcriber and you could be too!
I can’t wait for the future where ai can very reliably transcribe anything for the blind folks out there so they can freely browse stuff like we all do.
I am very much uncaring for turtles predicament. He or she was an ass to ever community at every possible chance. now it's expected the community help them out? Hell no, hope the removal is permanent
Yeah this seems like some selfawarewolves shit. And even in this whiny tirade they just couldn't leave some sort sexist/ableist/hateful insult off. As much as spez is a fucking tool, people like turtle are the bigger reason honestly the whole site had turned to diarrhea IMO - rampant assholes taking over the site.
Yeah I don't get why they felt the need to bring up spez being short (is that what they were getting at?) Seems childish. Who cares if he's not tall? What's that have to do with this..
Turtle is either a massive troll and/or a massive misandrist who loved to use that sort of terminology at all times, that's why, this quip is in the fucking kiddie pool of the slurs and insults they used for no reason other than their life is seemingly so miserable. They are a childish asshole, that's all there is to it.
