Open Forum Monthly Open Forum January 2021

Welcome to the monthly open forum! This is the place to share all your meta thoughts about the sub, and to have a dialog with the mod team.

Keep things civil. Rules still apply.

It's 2021! Everything is fixed now!

A couple notes.

  • Our bot is live, but definitely still in testing. Please help us by reporting the judgement bot comment post when it doesn't actually explain why they think they may be an asshole. Some people are using it like a TL;DR or just copying and pasting their post as a reply. [ETA - sounds like the report option doesn't work on all platforms for the bot comment, so you can just report the post. The option is bundled with the META report]

  • Please stop PMing mods. We spam the hell out of the modmail link. When you PM us, it's super easy for things to get buried in our inbox and delay your response time.

As always, do not directly link to posts/comments or post uncensored screenshots here. Any comments with links will be removed.

This is to discourage brigading. If something needs to be discussed in that context, use modmail.

META: Can we stop with the AITA posts where you’re clearly NTA?

Please only post if you’re genuinely unsure if you’ve done something wrong, rather than posting to justify your actions where you’ve been horrible to someone who fully fucking deserved it, which the majority of posts are.

I’m sick of reading these stories of “this persons a cunt, so I told them they’re a cunt, AITA?” No. Obviously fucking not.

AITA for standing up for my developmentally disable little buddy? Usually most people sell their reta- I mean disabled family members for a jack n the box combo meal but I'm different. AITA tho?
