I’m here because I saw a comment mentioning it and I wondered what it was. Then I saw there were threads with hundreds of responses and thought, “hey, this isn’t actually dead, maybe it could be fun”

If persistence and asking over and over again has worked in other situations, and tantrums don’t have a significant negative reinforcement, this sort of behavior seems natural. She probably just has a hard-headed personality. She needs to learn the negatives of throwing tantrums, how it makes you feel and how it will make other people feel, and why it should be important to her that she doesn’t make people feel bad.

Jannies have never been good at relating to people, and reddit admins are like the jannies’ janny. Ban-happiness is inevitable.

Forums are an interesting model for real life human social structures. If you operate your social structural group in such a way that the only way of meting out punishment is exclusion, eventually you can create an outgroup that becomes a threatening competitor.

When your containment board is another website, you lose.

If I read Lemmy by the river, does that mean I’m Lemming? Hmm

Seems like a bit of a broad brush to paint with my friend. Plenty of places are building roundabouts
