  • Personal reddit conspiracy theory as to why image hosting is on site:

    1. r/fatpeoplehate exists, does its thing (hating fat people)
    2. They get some images removed from imgur, the image host du juor of reddit at the time.
    3. They go on the offensive and start harassing fat imgur workers.
    4. The subreddit gets banned.
    5. Under a year later, reddit puts in image uploading.

    My theory is that 3 resulted in imgur hitting up reddit and threatening to block the site if they didn’t reign in fatpeoplehate. Reddit did, by 4, because the alternative was no images and that would absolutely fuck reddit up. This in turn leads to 5 to prevent that powerplay again.



  • Banning everyone takes a bot, which is rate limited. Same with a trash flood.

    Automod though, you can easily set to do things like remove all new comments and submissions, remove stuff on one report (which lets you use the argument no one really believes that you’re letting the users have more control.), allow new submissions but lock every comment section, or allow only select users to post, whether based on karma, username, flair, etc.

    Possibilities are endless really.

    Man card bottle opener

    lol he has to use a special tool to open his bottles. Table edge is right there tough guy… or literally any hard object you can get about an inch of leverage with (so not your dick ayo), Belt buckle is possible, doesn’t even have to be a special one. Keys, a dollar bill, lighter, principle doesn’t change too much between them. Hell even your wedding ring… oh… awkward.
