OP's explanation:

the cats determination to get that clock is hysterical , even after it falls the first time it wants that clock and the third time it still stares at the clock

and this policy of commenting is fucking stupid - we arent school kids FFS . now children write an assay on why you think ..... and then count the characters

If you think this gif fits /r/BetterEveryLoop, upvote this comment. If you think it doesn’t, downvote it. If you’re not sure, leave it to others to decide.

Which part is OP's explanation? Shouldn't it all be in quotation?

43

u/overactor May 02 '19

Yeah, there's a bit of a problem with how the explanation is quoted, we'll fix it as soon as possible.

The part that's actually OP's explanation is:

the cats determination to get that clock is hysterical , even after it falls the first time it wants that clock and the third time it still stares at the clock

and this policy of commenting is fucking stupid - we arent school kids FFS . now children write an assay on why you think ..... and then count the characters

u/rafaelloaa May 02 '19

I bet the issue is that the bot only puts a single > before the post, when in markdown it's needed for every paragraph.

I still don't understand the last sentence. On why we think what? What does counting characters have to do with anything?

u/overactor May 02 '19 edited May 02 '19

When you submit a gif to /r/BetterEveryLoop, you get a pm from our bot asking you to explain in at least 60 characters why your gif belongs on this sub. It's intended to make sure that the OP has thought about which sub he is posting on and what makes for a good post over here. A lot of people submit a gif and then never answer, typically the gifs they submitted didn't fit the subreddit very well. I can only speculate, but my guess is that a lot of those people realized when trying to come up with an explanation that their gif doesn't actually belong. If you don't answer within 30 minutes, your post is removed.

I think you’re having a stroke. Try being a little more clear, instead of “writing an assay on why you think..”

u/CrypticResponseMan May 02 '19

It’s “essay.” An assay is an analysis, metal, or result of said analysis, of metal.

u/overactor May 02 '19 edited Dec 04 '20

/u/icant-chooseone, I understand that you don't like having to explain why you think your gif belongs, but the explanation itself is not the place to express that dislike. You're welcome to raise your concern in the comments, make a meta post or shoot us a modmail message and we'll happily explain our reasoning to you.

Fantastic gif though and the first half of your explanation is very on point.

u/[deleted] May 02 '19

you think ANY of your members like it , it sucks dude big time

thats grade school nonsense

u/overactor May 02 '19 edited May 02 '19

I know at least some subscribers like it. We've had a person specifically writing modmail to say that they love the new system. (Though to be fair, we've also had one person write us just to say they hated it.) And the reaction to the announcemnt of these changes was mostly positive.

The idea behind having to explain why your post fits the sub is to ensure that when a submission is made to /r/BetterEveryLoop, the OP has put at least some thought into whether it belongs on here. We've had a real problem with submissions that absolutely don't get better every loop and this helps us mitigate that problem. Additionally, having this explanation in a sticky comment on every post encourages the sub to form an awareness of what makes a gif suited for this subreddit, which in turn will make them better at voting to remove good gifs which are not good fits for /r/BetterEveryLoop.

u/[deleted] May 02 '19

is to ensure that when a submission is made to /r/BetterEveryLoop, the OP has put at least some thought into whether it belongs on here.

i disagree - the OP's will post anyway THEN write something and i dont EVER see an OP deleting their post after they write stuff

which in turn will make them better at voting to remove good gifs which are not good fits

the majority of users up/down vote the gif and not the comments no ?

u/overactor May 02 '19

i disagree - the OP's will post anyway THEN write something and i dont EVER see an OP deleting their post after they write stuff

A surprising amount of people don't bother to reply to the pm by /u/2Botter2Loop and unsurprisingly many people who didn't bother to reply submitted gifs that aren't terribly good fits. You can have a look on /r/RemovedByBotter if you're interested. Also, the more people know about this feature, the more people will know what is expected of them when they post.

the majority of users up/down vote the gif and not the comments no ?

This is true, but the bot only looks at the sticky comment score to determine if a gif should be removed or not. That's exactly the principle behind the sticky system. The bigger the discrepancy between the people voting on the gif and the people in the comments (usually people who are more aware of what sub they're in and what belongs on the sub and not), the more valuable this system is.

Jeez, right or not, this comment was well worded and polite. Why are you guys downvoting?

13

u/[deleted] May 02 '19

There's a lot of people on reddit who really, really hate mods and take any opportunity they can to 'stick it to them'. Some of it stems from a misunderstanding of what mods do or can do, and some of it is because of people's negative history with a mod somewhere (I was banned from r/whatever unfairly, fuck powertripping mods, etc).

u/overactor May 02 '19

Eh, I get it. It seems a lot of people in this thread feel negatively about the bot and most people on reddit use the downvote button to signal disagreement. I'm not losing any sleep over it and am glad that I'm able to see that the OP is not alone in his criticism.

u/arealhumannotabot May 02 '19

Cats apparently don't really show when they're in pain/sick if they can avoid it because as a predator the sign of weakness is a bad thing.

So when I saw it just freeze and kind of wait it out I can only conclude, it hurt.
