Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.

I saw a "not meme or shitpost" reason for removal and that's kinda lame.

If you have rules, put them in the sidebar mods. 🤦‍♂️

When you go to someone's house, do you shit on their floor if there isn't a cross stitch hanging by the door that says "Please don't shit on our floor."

We shouldn't need rules, because everyone here is an adult and the expectation is they will conduct themselves as such.

Beyond that it says right on the tin, "Star Trek memes and shitposts," so if it's not Star Trek related (and the bar for that is incredibly low) or it's not a meme or shitpost, then there's no reason for it to be here.

It also says

There are no real rules

And when this community first started getting traction, people asked for clarification and got told the same thing; there are no rules and that it didn't even need to be a meme or shitpost.

The removals for bad behavior are one thing; but most of the removals in the modlog aren't for that.

I don't know who told you that posts here don't need to fall under the category of memes and shitposts, but I guarantee you it was not me.

Well I personally shit on every floor I see

Oh damn.

Mods, what's up with that?

That Sarah Silverman making out with Tim Russ post is the most on-brand post I've seen in c/Risa.

Right? I crave mid 90s star trek gossip.

Oh I already saw it and commented in the thread. I was just trying to get ahead of any other 90s trek gossip. But thank you for posting the link for others.

The post was removed

If that's Risa's brand, then we might as well just shut down the entire community. Fucking jeepers, that's dire.

[–] negativenull@startrek.website 7 points 1 year ago

How is that not the ultimate shit post? Absolutely zero reason to remove it beyond personal preference.

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

With the first link the chain is forged...

[–] flicker@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Here's hoping we see a response.

[–] Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't get the joke. Is this meta about some deleted posts?

[–] negativenull@startrek.website 7 points 1 year ago

Yes, a mod removed a few posts for breaking rules, when there are no explicit rules.
