One of the dunk tank mods actively hates the low effort posts and I assume was one of the main drivers of getting dunk/dredge shut down. The only conclusion I can draw is they want to slowly kill the site by making it less welcoming and drive down engagement. I try to read the multi paragraph comments sometimes but my ADHD causes my eyes to gloss over.

Why would you mod a community filled with content you hate? Just block it?

This is like that one SDP leader who hated revolution.

Because other people were enjoying it and naturally if you shut down the shit posting then everyone will start having involved discussions on the nature of dialectics.

Ohh that's like how I focused on my schooling instead of getting drunk because I wasn't old enough to drink! Makes sense to me.

Fr. I only blocked two communities here, but it was really all I needed for the perfect site.
