[ModPost] A change concerning one of our rules.

Rule # 2 is:

Follow the Golden Rule (aka "Don't be a dick.")

Usually we don't have to do anything with this rule, most people are nice enough and even when things do get heated people calm down after a little bit.

But lately we've noticed that there seems to be a lot more hateful and rude comments, irrelevant arguments, and drama throughout the subreddit. We've been linked to SRD more than once in the past week.

The mod team is sick of it, and I hope the rest of you are as well.

So to fix that we're going to be more strict in enforcing this rule.

If we see an argument that is getting out of control or someone antagonizing another user we're going to be removing those comments and nuking threads if we have to. People that are repeatedly causing problems, after being warned, will be banned. If you are banned for that reason I want to make it perfectly clear that there is no grand conspiracy against you, we just don't like assholes shitting up our subreddit. THIS INCLUDES VENDORS AND MARKET ADMINS. I shouldn't have to say that because you people should already be playing nice with everyone, but it doesn't always work that way.

Intelligent conversation/disagreements are fine as long as they remain intelligent and informative. Swearing is fine, because who doesn't love a goddamn sentence enhancer, as long as its used well. If your post is mostly just a poorly worded insult then you can expect it to be removed.

Just don't be a dick and you won't have to worry.

Dammit. This is my hunting ground for the eternally moronic. Where else am I gonna pay out on some fuckwit asking about HoS for the eleventieth time today, or wondering if PGP means 'pizzas get pussy'? What do I say to the kid who flushes his stash because he ordered three hours ago from two continents away and saw a blue car in his street? How are we meant to pay out on the twit who wants to order BTC with Paypal, and asks how to cashback? How the fuck do we react to the twit who sees speedpaste at 72%, but dries to 60% volume?

I need validation, and if you fuckers won't give it to me, I'll be forced to get a genuine personality or someshit. I'd rather get prostate stimulation from TurtleTime with a thesaurus.

Confirmed OP is a faggot

Assholes make this subreddit the great, entertaining sub it is. Seeing /u/Big_Daddy_Trucknutz rip into clueless posters makes my day.


[10 Points] earthmoonsun:

but some posts are so blatantly stupid that some rudeness might be the right way to wake them up from their retarded way of thinking


[9 Points] None:

I'm not sure how else to respond to the stupidity I read here on a daily basis other than being a snarky asshole.


[6 Points] autophiller:

It's about fucking time.

Thanks.


[4 Points] None:

Can we get rid of the people asking for seriously immoral shit? IE: human body parts, ashes, fake money for hookers, ect.


[3 Points] None:

You mods are fucking idiots. Do you honestly believe that we would give a flying fuck about your shitty-ass rules? This isn't goddamn North Korea and I can say whatever the hell I want and you fags can go royally fuck yourselves.

Mods are acting funny. Must be LE. Everyone burn house and re-group in Belize where we'll start r/darknetmarkets2 with multi-sig...

EDIT: False alarm peeps! Mods are legit!

Fuck you for being the best mod team. <3 (PS - new CSS looks pretty damn slick)


[2 Points] None:

Good posts are funnier when you're a dick, it's what the internet is for.

Being a dick just to be a dick is lame. But a well thought out response where you are being a dick to someone who's being stupid, is worth it.

ie:

HEY GUISE I JUST GOT SCAMMED ON SR2, FUCK!

fuck, thanks for telling us, I was about to be a fucking idiot myself! Good thing you found out and told us before it happened to anyone else!

I strongly disagree with this mod change, it tells me you don't believe in Reddit. Just let the Upvote/Downvote system do it's magic, if people find someone being a dick so disagreeable, just let them get downvoted. If people upvote them because the content is worth it, then them being a dick shouldn't be grounds to hide a good post.


[1 Points] mxemakesyoudumb:

This sub is entertaining just for the idiots alone, just like /r/LSD

Are you saying we have to put on foam gloves for them?


[0 Points] aYellowSub:

Why do you care? This is a sub about drugs, not about feeling good. Go over to SRS if you want to feel good. Losing track of what's important, a mod team more focused on people's feelings not getting hurt than weeding out what's obviously LE that's been posting around here recently.
