Full Guidelines

Summarized Guidelines:

  1. Be polite: Treat each other with respect. No slurs (ex. racial, gender, homophobic, mental health, etc.)

  2. Engage in good faith: If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything.

  3. Use Megathreads: If your question can go in a megathread or stickied post, you must post it there.

  4. Keep content relevant: Posts must be related to UBC or its community. All memes must be OC and/or explicitly related to UBC.

  5. Follow community rules: This includes illegal activities, linking to unauthorized copyrighted materials, doxxing, and violations of UBC academic conduct policy (read more).

  6. Advertisements: UBC affiliated non-profit organizations may advertise within reasonable limits. Everyone else must contact us before posting. No private advertisement of any sale or purchase. (read more).

  7. Surveys: Surveys should be posted only if they are related to UBC or are of unique interest to the UBC community. Only some survey types are allowed (read more).

  8. No discussion of foreign politics unless it has clear and direct implications for the UBC community (read more).

  9. Lost & Found Posts are only allowed for some items (read more). Found posts SHOULD NOT include images or descriptors (color, location) of the item. Pictures with personal information are also prohibited.

We didn't forget this year! Presenting: the Best of 2023 nominations thread.

Categories up for nomination:

Best comment

Best text post

Best image or video post

Most wholesome post/comment

Best meme

Prizes are:

  • A sense of pride and accomplishment
  • The admiration of UBC students and community members for centuries to come
  • Being listed on ubcwiki.ca/meta/community
  • anything else the community might offer...

Here are the rules:

Nominations

  • You may only nominate submissions made in 2023
  • Submissions must be in the Reddit or Lemmy communities (the latter doesn't have much content this year, but it will be included moving forwards)
    • Nomination post on REDDIT: reddit.com/r/UBC/comments/18fx4wo
    • Nomination post on LEMMY: lemmy.ca/post/11110616
  • You can nominate anyone but yourself
  • You must nominate underneath the mod comment for that category
  • You must link directly to your nomination
  • Each nomination must be for one piece of content only

Some helpful links

Winning

  • A single post or comment can only win once, even if nominated in multiple categories
  • The winner will be the entry in each category with the most upvotes
  • Mods can be nominated, but if they win any of the categories, the prizes will go to the next eligible nominees

Other Details

Reddit:

  • All top-level comments and non-link comments will be removed.
  • Please do not downvote
  • This thread will be in contest mode, so nobody will know who is winning until we announce it.

Lemmy:

  • This is the first year with our Lemmy community on the Fediverse. If you don't have a Reddit account anymore and would like to vote there, feel free to copy a nomination into the Lemmy thread, or to get in touch with us to on Lemmy to discuss.
  • Lemmy does not have all the same features as Reddit yet, and so the experience will be a little different. Please reach out to us or make a separate post to talk about how we can do things differently next year.

Now, go forth and nominate your favourite content from the past year, and don't forget to upvote other nominations you think should win!
