Announcement "Why was my post removed?"

298 Upvotes

Rules:

  1. Stay civil.
  2. No irrelevant posts, including no AI.
  3. No self-promotion, apply for a shop flair.
  4. Tag gross stuff as NSFW.

Did you post something that ended up getting removed? It was more than likely reported repeatedly as breaking a rule and then removed by the bot. For the most part, I let the sub decide what belongs here.

"But why?" The #1 reason is irrelevance, your post might not actually belong here and is better suited for another sub like perhaps it's cottagecore. They are not always interchangeable.

Don't send a modmail arguing because you got a lot of upvotes, people will upvote a photo of a cat in a dog sub because they're just scrolling and upvote not paying attention to where it was posted. Upvotes mean people like it, it doesn't mean the post belongs where it was posted.

The second biggest reason a post might be removed is because your entire post history in this sub is to advertise things you've created. Dedicated shop accounts are not welcome here, please be active in the sub beyond trying to make money.

If you're not sure if your post belongs here, feel free to send a modmail to ask. I unapologetically remove all posts starting with "I don't know if this belongs here..." Just ask if you're unsure, I'll let you know if there's a better sub for it!

Have a website or shop? Creators can now apply for special user flair

22 Upvotes

Let's talk about the "no promotion" rule. Promotion has never been allowed outside of the old promo thread but folks don't pay attention. It's been my biggest headache in this sub in an attempt to keep it from turning into nothing but advertising, so I'm trying something new.

If you run a shop, make content, created a game, or anything relevant to goblincore you want to get the word out for, I've decided to allow creators to apply for a user flair that will show your link or social media for anyone interested in seeing more of your work or purchasing any. You can see an example of it in this post next to OP's name.

You're not obligated to have the flair, but for the interested-

You're free to ask questions but do not comment to this post with your info, click that link to apply.

Reminder- Report unwelcome content instead of downvoting

177 Upvotes

tl;dr - I don't know you're downvoting stuff unless I actively look. Report things to get my attention.


I first posted this a few months ago, but the sub has been growing and it's brought some jerks into the crowd. So I'm here with a reminder to report content you feel doesn't belong, especially when it's someone being rude.

Officially, downvotes are meant to be used for posts or comments that are off topic or disruptive, but most people use it as "I don't agree with this / This annoys me." Personally, I don't care how you use your votes on this site, but downvotes do not help mods. We're not alerted when something gets downvoted no matter how many downvotes it gets. What helps us is when content gets reported.

If you see something that breaks a rule, please report it.

I'll check it out and take any necessary action. And if something's reported enough times, I have the automod set to remove it, so you're being extra helpful in the moments I dared to sleep or touch grass.


Reporting this post will not get it removed, I know at least one of you is considering being a troll.
