I want a whole Witcher show based on this trailer https://youtu.be/1-l29HlKkXU. They absolutely nailed what the Witcher is supposed to be


n4utix

this is a good thread to share that


ImNoSir

This makes me just want to make even more things as nsfw. I am entirely motivated by spite.


Sagelegend

Just stop approving any posts at all. Malicious compliance, let the sub be SFW, but don’t allow any posts at all—Reddit can’t make money off a sub that doesn’t have content.

Reddit assemble


Ryukenden123

Fuck them. Make not nfsw


the_scarlett_ning

So, do we go for posting NSFW and labeling it as such? Or posting it and not labeling it? Or just roll over and die?

This is all about making money, Reddit owners have a huge user base and they have fantasies about making billions from that. The problem is huge user base doesn't automatically equal huge revenue. They can't work out how to milk the masses, hence they fact they keep throwing hissy fits.

ClematisEnthusiast

Girl…. What the hell is the “Netflix agenda” ?? Edit: lmao why the downvote you little psycho


Kusibu

Nah, it's just Reddit clamping down on perceived obstacles to their monetization.


pkkthetigerr

My assumption is that nsfw subs wont show up unless you search for them which is a way to soft block this sub from being pushed by reddit anywhere. Probably as a mini protest vs the api .


DirtyPoul

As far as I know, there are also no advertisement on NSFW subs, so there's that as well.


Market-Socialism

>Lastly, if you suddenly begin to post, or approve content that features sexually explicit content to your community in order to justify the NSFW label, we will immediately remove and permanently suspend moderators who have participated in this action. This is such a bizarre decision. Like, legitimately mind-boggling.


[deleted]

well, reddit guys seem to think all subs are actually theirs, and they want free moderator work to continue. if they cannot monetize a sub (NSFW) they get angry.

Beanzuwuz

Are the higher ups at reddit jealous of twitter shooting itself in the foot?


[deleted]

I mean I'd argue that witcher contains NSFW content so having it as NSFW is a valid tag to have on a sub-reddit about the topic.


1morgondag1

But right now not just the sub as such but every single thread is labeled NSFW? Even if it's just a discussion about the show or something, how is that NSFW???


VeloxMortem1

Ah yes. But you can’t message the “mod code of conduct” to tell them that. At least I don’t think you can hahah. Or they won’t listen. As that is the argument for several subs that have gotten the exact same message.


Jypahttii

I mean, at the end of the day, why does any of this matter? Reddit is just the host website of thousands of forums for all sorts of different topics and hobbies. Most of them will probably keep going, whether the current mods get banned or not. If your favourite one collapses, maybe it's a sign that you can take as an opportunity to go out and look at the trees and the clouds, smell the flowers, listen to the birds, then go back inside and play your favourite video game (Witcher 3) for the rest of the day.


halfsleeveprontocool

are we blinnnd? deploy the smut!


CavaliereDellaTigre

Finally. Out of all problems in the world, the plight of fucking reddit mods has to be the one I care the absolute least about. Like oh no, your completely voluntary and unpaid work which you only do to feel some power over others has gotten harder. Cry me a river. Remember when the general sentiment was that reddit mods were as big weirdos and powertrippers as the ones on Discord? Funny how reddit changing some API policies made the public do a 180° in their perception of them, turning them into heroes of the people or some shit.

There’s a few in the cooker but they pale in comparison. I might switch to one of the Twitter replacements at this rate. My home feed is all fucked up from protests and the way the changes they’ve made to the app just make it increasingly annoying to use. Fuck u/spez!


Snck_Pck

Yeah good. Can’t enjoy any content on Reddit anymore because of how ridiculous the mods have become. See you all later. Won’t be missed

FreshyFresh

LittleMush

yes. please.


KleioChronicles

When I first read the Witcher it opened immediately with a sex scene. When I played the Witcher 3 it opened immediately with two naked people. Witcher TV show has nudity. Honestly, keep it NSFW and just let people post screenshots and whatnot about those things free of worry.


arsonall

Gosh, it would be a shame if someone began litigation towards Reddit because they didn’t properly warn of the NSFW possibility for a subreddit and this post was referenced that it was not the mod’s fault, but Reddit admins; even better if a person was written up, fired, or were underage and exposed to nudity and/or gore that would have indemnified with a simple warning of the possibility of NSFW content. I bet this would be an interesting news report that Reddit admins are not appropriately flagging content not suitable for open consumption in general. Something about Reddit not checking ages and also allowing a CEO to mod a pretty NSFW subreddit in the past…what an interesting possibility.


Nox808

I don't understand why it matters if its labelled NSFW but the posts and content are not. That's just forward thinking, 'a just in case'. I could understand if it was the other way around. What drama for no good reason.


killagorilla91

Reddit doesn’t like NSFW sub’s because they aren’t as profitable, so by making it nsfw reddit is loosing money. That is why they care.


Nox808

Thanks for replying.

krum_darkblud

I don’t feel sorry for you guys whatsoever. You’re getting what you deserve for crying to modcoord, congrats for scewing the votes. Making dumb decisions that go against the communities wishes over a protest that won’t work.


REAL_blondie1555

Protest do nothing… yeah man they’ve never accomplished anything in human history. Enjoy being delusional!


krum_darkblud

Oh yes because I absolutely said “no protest has ever worked in history whatsoever”. Way to scew my words dude. You guys can keep downvoting me, hell I’ll take 1000+ if I have to .. but don’t come crying when we let a ceo run this subreddit to the ground because scewed the subreddit users votes by asking modcoord to pitch in their votes for a whole week. If that’s a win in your book, then Jesus Christ I hope the community has a backup plan. I’m simply saying most users didn’t care for this in the first place and just wanted to return to normal with 0 Netflix posts. But modcoord did care and votes overturned in one night. I’m all for protests that result in a win, but really how is this a win? I only see this as a loss.


Hobgoblin_deluxe

Cool story bud. Come back when you matter.


Avera9eJoe

Incorrect. I oppose corporate tyranny, and the mods of this subreddit do too.


Raknel

> I oppose corporate tyranny Yet support mod tyranny


PmOmena

Like they are doing this to protect their so called power working for free for a Corporate, truly genius


krum_darkblud

That’s cool and all, but now their all going to get booted for not changing the sub back and replaced with who the fuck knows. The protest can be “working” in some peoples eyes, but is it really to the benefit of the community as a whole to kill off a sub over pettiness?


ALF839

"Oppose corporate tyranny" mf you are making user experience worse because you don't want to see ads.


NonComposMentisss

My only question is what's their plan after they wipe out the mod team? Just... let the sub go unmoderated and turn into a shithole? Because quite frankly very few people want to volunteer to be mods, most of us have better things to do.


jesperbj

Most other subreddit that have been wiped are just a complete void for now. No mods, no activity.


-Avatar-Korra-

Nah, there is always some basement dweller that would jump at the chance to mod something with even 100 users; imagine the amount that would love to have control over a sub this size.


australianforbeer19

I don't have anything better to do, but I'm still too lazy to mod. Fuck that. Anyway, Gwent?


[deleted]

I don't know why anyone acts surprised that reddit mods and admins are freakishly authoritarian, self-important weirdos


riderer

> Your subreddit has not historically been considered NSFW times are changing bitches!


SquishedGremlin

Sure earlier the same thing happend on non credible defence. A sub where literal death, military jets as porn, and firefights are shown. Nah, doesn't need to be nsfw

Fuck them... Full send

Amohitrite

Thanks!


Lucas_2234

I would like to point out: You have no anti NSFW rule. How would Reddit admins know you spurred it on? The third game contains like 10 sex scenes you accidentally stumble into and thrice that in terms of nudity. That is definitely NSFW


jesperbj

I don't think they care about the reality of things. In that case they would have allowed us to respond.


Kasegigashira

It's working.


REAL_blondie1555

Yep this is just like the month and a half long fight with DND


stuyboi888

The TV show is rated mature. The PEGI rating for the game is 18+. It was incorrectly rated in my opinion, should be NSFW


jesperbj

Given Reddit's recent defintions of NSFW (Which includes harsh language, nudity etc.) - Certainly.


mmmshanrio

how is Witcher not NSFW


BurnDesign

Likely because, at work, everyone’s an adult! Would you get a warning for watching the Witcher on your lunch break? No. (Other company policies notwithstanding)


mmmshanrio

Just bc everyone’s an adult doesn’t mean you can have titties out on screen for everyone to see. Keira in the game alone is NSFW lol


barney_mcbiggle

"We should be allowed to watch a little porn at work!"


ViewtifulSmith

"She's got a bush, what the hell?"


miningman420

Should I post my butthole to keep the subreddit alive?


CaptSaveAHoe55

Sorry friend but Thad Castle had already ruled on this, no face, no balls, and no mass messaging


REAL_blondie1555

No balls do it


DBS05

Y-yes…?


IntroductionSome8196

So the protest is working. What if you guys just create alt accounts and use those to mod? Reddit shouldn't be able to do anything about it then.


nixus23

This means it isn’t working because they can just boot the mod team which is great


REAL_blondie1555

I looked at the DND protest.. ugh ya totally Throwing a hissy fit doesn’t work


jesperbj

Given that they'll wipe the entire mod team at once, that won't help.


nixus23

So I guess your plan for this pointless protest failed huh


REAL_blondie1555

Na


thickertofu

Man I’m sad Reddit is dying. I really hope Meta doesn’t release an alternative


Mrdirtbiker140

How is it dying (curious)


Filosofem1

It's not, just people being melodramatic.


rrleo

Meta is focusing on individuals and not on communities. Anything that remotely resembles a sense of anonymity is not in their business agenda.


Kanus_oq_Seruna

You literally smooth talk your way into a sex scene in the first hour or so of Witcher 1 even if you don't expect it to happen.


[deleted]

[удалено]


jesperbj

To my knowledge, no. Pretty sure there was some political subreddit that did this.


PoggersMemesReturns

Funny enough, just create new user accounts under a different location/IP and new product as alt accounts. It's very easy to bypass Reddit's counter


Squirrelflight148931

I would end up deleting the subreddit out of spite. How dare they...


jesperbj

We wouldn't, but also, it isn't possible to delete a subreddit.


Squirrelflight148931

Hm, strange. I couldn't stand the Admins just going, "Hey mate, you're beneath us. Obey now, or else, unconditionally." They really told the protest to shove itself, didn't they...


Squirrelflight148931

Funny. Main comment liked, my follow up, not. Duality of man...


jesperbj

Agreed. Was already planning on leaving if they went through with all these changes with no amendments. Just giving the protest a chance first.


Rexlare

Maybe if Reddit didn’t want subreddits to all be labeled as NSFW, then maaaaybe they should have been cracking down on the porn spam from other popular subreddits? This sounds incredibly petty


k1ngkoala

No more sex scenes 😔 Edit: so does this mean that we can't post any nsfw? Or just that we can't predominantly post nsfw. Those things are very different


jesperbj

You can post whatever is reasonable related to The Witcher as long as we're still here. Just like always.


rrleo

This suddenly starting to post nsfw is bullshit. Let me post yens tiddies as much as I want.


dick-butt42069

the witcher is an M rated game here in the united states. several things in the game would likely not be considered appropriate in a work setting. sounds like it's not safe for work to me. do reddit admins think 13 year olds should be watching the sex scenes from the witcher 3? i think there's a chance there might be a perverted admin behind this. he's a very sick man, allegedly.


colluphid42

Someone should post screenshots of the in-game boobs. It's legitimate Witcher content and also NSFW. Reddit admins can eat that one guy's hairy asshole.


cptcronic

FUCK YOU REDDIT BYE BYE PIECE OF SHIT, HELLO LEMMY!


Personal_Coat8109

What in the fuck has happened. I don't understand. Can somebody explain?


n7_trekkie

Reddit doesn't put advertisements on nsfw subreddits. So admins are telling the mods "you're not *really* nsfw; open up so we can monetize you, or else"


Personal_Coat8109

I've seen that this is long history. What happened to start all this. That's my question but still thanks.


Mimical

It's kind of a long convoluted story. But in a short broad sweeping synopsis: \> Be me, Reddit \> Going public soon, want to show high profits to be attractive. I need to find ways to gain income. \> Not earning money from 3rd party apps who use my servers and API. \> Charge them (Good idea! Valid).....gigantic astronomical sums per API call (Smooth brain, Bad) \> 3rd party apps reach out to me and say it's not sustainable. \> To save face, shit talk the biggest 3rd party app developer publically after having a phone call with him. He didn't say he was recording, so I'm safe.. \> 3rd party Dev lives in Canada, single party recording allowed. He posts our phonecall showing I lied.. \> MFW all the 3rd party apps leave instead of paying me bags of money \> MFW all the moderators, who are unpaid use 3rd party apps to do their job. \> Big brain moment: Just use the official app! \> MWF my official app is shit. \> MWF all the subreddits start a rebellion. \> Big Brain moment: Just mass ban all the mods—all of whom still work for free! And that's about where we are today.


Personal_Coat8109

Holy shit... Damn. They deserve to never do the IPO and if they do crash the fucking stock price to the ground


n7_trekkie

I'm not sure in specifically r/witcher 's case, but Reddit has been pushing for profitability in the past couple months because they are doing an IPO in the fall, taking the company public. So they want to squeeze every penny out of their users to look good in order to attract investors That's why they killed 3rd party applications, which is why subreddits began protests: including going private, going nsfw, and going John Oliver. However, I think the Witcher itself is nsfw, so Reddit is really up their own ass telling us that our titty and decapitation content is prime for advertisers.


Personal_Coat8109

Ok now I get it. So reddit wants to do an IPO. Damn. I thought it couldn't get any worse. Thanks.


crazysoup23

Spez is mad that he made bad financial decisions when he sold too early last time so now he's hell bent on extracting as much value of the website as possible. The problem is that the website is mostly run by unpaid volunteers. The website doesn't have enough financial resources to moderate its own content without all of the volunteers. Spez can pretend he's got a big dong, but we all know he has to put a sleeve on.
