They often do controversial stuff

2019-01-08 16:35:00 UTC  

True

2019-01-08 16:35:03 UTC  

And we don't have to tell them the exact angle we'll be taking. XR

2019-01-08 16:35:32 UTC  

Just pick a few male topics

2019-01-09 18:12:36 UTC  

So I know this is a small thing in the scheme of it but I'm trying to talk with the r/rape mods to get r/mensrights removed off the blacklist.

@goodmod are you aware of the various brigades that sub may have suffered as a result of us? Is it all bullshit?

2019-01-09 18:14:31 UTC  

Mens Rights mods don't allow posts advocating brigading other subs... The admins would love to use that as an excuse to shut down /r/mensrights

2019-01-09 18:15:00 UTC  

Of course they don't.

2019-01-09 18:15:44 UTC  

But is there something that may have tangentially been related

2019-01-09 18:16:04 UTC  

We should just ignore that sub.

2019-01-09 18:16:25 UTC  

ATM I'm just trying to see if there's any room to apologize and move forward or if I'm just being lied to and nothing will change.

2019-01-09 18:17:49 UTC  

Well I've been on Reddit years and years personally and I never heard of anything about that. And apologise for what? Even if any users decided to go there and stir up trouble deliberately, it will only have been coincidence, and has nothing to do with the mensrights subreddit.

2019-01-09 18:18:00 UTC  

@GG Allin I dont think that's the case though. I want mras to be accepted. Not frustrated and scared of being pushed away from anyone

2019-01-09 18:19:08 UTC  

Ok not apologize but come up with ways to prevent any potential for it to be related to us. Because I know it isn't. But I'm not trying to convince us

2019-01-09 18:19:39 UTC  

I'm trying to find a middle ground

2019-01-09 18:19:49 UTC  

It being against the mensrights subs rules prevents the potential of being related to the sub

2019-01-09 18:20:44 UTC  

Anyone who would blame the sub for a user or two who posts there isn't thinking rationally

2019-01-09 18:25:06 UTC  

It's against the rules. But that's like saying creating new accounts is against the rules.

2019-01-09 18:25:51 UTC  

If you wanna smooth things over for some reason maybe goodmod would know what the situation was... (I know the question was directed at goodmod, hope you dint mind me interjecting) but honestly, as Allin said, I don't think it's worth the time

2019-01-09 18:26:17 UTC  

Only it's not, because a sub doesn't create new accounts. Users do. They aren't blaming the users but a sub itself

2019-01-09 18:26:32 UTC  

This was never going to be rational discussion. I knew that. And of course I don't mind you interjecting.

2019-01-09 18:26:36 UTC  
2019-01-09 18:29:03 UTC  

Maybe I'm just mildly autistic but I can't stand non rational discussions

2019-01-09 18:30:16 UTC  

My point is trying to at least understand their emotions. As a sub of course brigading isn't allowed but if it just so happened a bunch of Mensrights users made there way over there, all they have is their post histories to go on and it still makes us look bad.

2019-01-09 18:30:17 UTC  

@InsaneCaterpilla yeah. Emotions do suck.

2019-01-09 18:30:23 UTC  

Who'd want to brigade a rape sub anyway. It boggles me. Something must have happened or they're just out right lying.

2019-01-09 18:31:02 UTC  

Sorry if this is all a weird order. My internet is being flaky and sending things out of order

2019-01-09 18:33:03 UTC  

Np, I still remember what it was like being on dial up... Ugh. I get that you wanna make an effort mate, that's a great thing. Just seems like pissing in the wind xD but good luck

2019-01-09 18:33:25 UTC  

^

2019-01-09 18:35:27 UTC  

Cheers. I'm trying to stay cool. The first mod was ok. He's the mod of MenGetRapedToo. But this last message was from someone different with an overly bitchy tone of "who do you think you are. You're not even a mod"

2019-01-09 18:37:45 UTC  

They probably mean to say that they assume you are taking liberties that you don't have with that comment

2019-01-09 18:38:10 UTC  

Pretty much

2019-01-09 18:38:37 UTC  

Well I am but a mere mortal.

2019-01-09 19:17:47 UTC  

@James I'm guessing what happens is they get men's rights people over there just saying "but men get raped". Plus, probably trolls.

2019-01-09 19:34:24 UTC  

Hmm. Is there anything that can be done about this?

2019-01-09 19:34:53 UTC  

I'm guessing it's more of a cultural shift that's needed

2019-01-09 19:34:59 UTC  

You know. No biggie

2019-01-09 20:17:08 UTC  

What are they like over there if a man says he's been raped?

2019-01-09 20:17:20 UTC  

Do they delete it? Lock it? LEave it be?

2019-01-09 20:21:29 UTC  

No. Most are fine. They definitely get less traction but that's like anything on Reddit

2019-01-09 20:22:03 UTC  

But if you've ever posted in r/Mensrights it's an instaban by a bot

2019-01-10 08:22:24 UTC  

Wow.
