How often do you mentally need to update the month in your head though? I can literally tell you.

Yer, just like the most important day for the seppos… The 4th of July…

Weebs around the world uniting all cultures and creeds.

Yer, I love how that comment completely ignores the same tired shit that each nationality hears over and over

• An upside-down person who lost a war to birds.

What you drink isn’t coffee.

Yuros?

Someone has been downvoting me every time I get a response from you on each comment.

Are you seeing my point now?

That sounds nothing like what we are talking about at all. Weird knee-jerk reaction. I feel like you are being a dick about this.

I was using reddit less and less, but when the furry subreddits made their way into /r/popular and /r/all that was it for toilet browsing/squat’n’surfing… Seeing a sign for ‘werewolf breeding zone’ was enough for me.

I really don’t think you do, you are being incredibly closed minded and sticking your head in the sand. Because it has no* effect on you (yet).

But not ‘being a dick’ is far too subjective in a global village… The world does not beat to one drum.

I have to stand on eggshells with my language around USamericans as an example.

Yer, great way to kill momentum of a new community that is built around discussion.

I think that is too idealistic. It could very easily go into a downward spiral that a community could never get out of. It happens already on several subreddits already. You may not have experienced it, but I can say it for certain happens. There have even been scifi series written about it that have taken the concept to the extreme.

It was more of a response to the minimum account karma.

Account age is reasonable enough, after the service has grown a bit more.

However, if people start getting banned for the wrong reasons and have to create new accounts to be able to have discussion. It does create a barrier for that discussion to take place.

requiring basic levels of karma most certainly is. You have to say the right things first to get the group approval before you can contribute.

So no free and open discussion then? Only approved group think will be allowed?

I understand the benifits of what you are asking, but those are the very things that lead Reddit to what it is now.
