I always felt the pedes here decided if my posts were relevant or lame by the upvotes I got or didn't get! Isn't removing my meme the SAME THING the demons want to do with the attack on the 1st Amendment? So some mOd gets to decide what is high effort and what isn't????
If you weren’t put on a vacation it doesn’t count and you don’t get a medal. Stay frosty my digital soldier and carve your deleted memes into your helmet.
I agree most of the time. It's not like I was trashing the Boss or anything ...... I was bad mouthing FEMA ..... which I felt was relevant to the happenings now! So..... should I post my meme again?
Agreed. I got a ban once, and as a result had a nice offline discussion with a couple of Mods, they are honestly under resourced and doing the best they can.
Pointed out a few things I never thought about, such as posts being used to slur the board etc. they are in a constant battle with commie fed faggots who will never be women.
It can be bs, sure.... but even you gotta admit the meme was not that great. Not knocking the content or the point made in the text but the graphic aspects of the meme are very umm, cookie cutter to put it nicely. The meme generators do a much cleaner job if you're struggling with the graphic design & editing.
I'm Scotty1954 ....... meaning I am 70 years old. I know how to hunt and survive and I can write in cursive .... I do NOT own a sMaRT phone and I would rather do things myself then be dependent on automation. I agree the meme wasn't my best work but I was trying to hurry a bit!
Again. Not judging fren. We probably live similar lifestyles. I'm more at home fileting fish than I am using GIMP these days.
Just honest criticism. Plus, u/Donny_Fiasco has a point. Should be up to the community what survives criticism.... especially considering how they let soooo many saucel3ss Twitter personality & paytriot claims get stickied yet they have the gall to self censor meme-smithing.
Don't quit! Remake the meme, the point was good! I say drop the text bubbles or opt for better editing... maybe a comic book style frame. 2 image boxes above 1 larger image box. Lol you could tell it was hastily made as you put it.
Jesus Scotty, you make it sound like you did your meme on a typewriter, then rode your horse to your grand kids who used a fancy scanner contraption and their internet to send it to space and eventually make it here 😀😀😀
Let's not throw around the word "Censor" too lightly.
Curating and moderating a forum like GAW isn't censorship.
Also, this is NOT a free-speech haven. It's a board with a specific purpose and focus, and off-topic and contradictory (i.e. anti-Q) content doesn't belong here, and that's not censorship.
Of course, this doesn't mean that your meme being removed was necessarily a good move, but let's avoid triggering expressions like "GAW is now censored" because a mod removed one of your memes.
I'd say give it a day or three, and see how you feel then. A removal can sting when you have a significant amount of personal investment attached, but the in the broader view, it may just be part of the running of a board.
Mods didn't give additional info? I've only had one post removed (that I recall) and the mod dropped a note that it was removed because it should have been under General Chat (or similar) and said I was free to repost there. Slightly annoying, but ultimately fair.
OK.... thanks all:) I will rework the meme and post in a day or so.....Gimp is your friend, Gimp is your friend..... Thanks again for the input and always meme them til they cry then meme them for crying!! WWG1WGA!

Come back when you have lost more than one.

yea, those vacations suck. I haven't argued with flat earthers since cats sent me on a short vacation.
Water makes up 71% of Earth. Earths oceans have no seltzer or carbination. Therfore the the largest part of earth is flat 😂
the mods are human. but they keep this place going, so

Post the meme again ..... upvote = yes, downvote = no

Makes you think.

It's not really the mods job to decide what deserves artistic merit and what is shite.
That's akin to the disinfo police

Sound advice! Thanks Streinieks:)

Stay frosty fren, your efforts are appreciated.

That’s what she said.
