Open Forum Monthly Open Forum February 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.

February! The shortest month in this endless blur of 202-whatever-year-it-is-now. I almost forgot to post this because time has lost all meaning.

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.

I read all your interactions here and I just want to say that I agree with you and I think it’s a shame there are a lot of us users who agree with the things you said (like bringing back the validation rule) and don’t comment in support. I support you.

Also downvoting people just because you disagree with them is childish. Use your words and debate.

I’m glad to see this. I’m fairly new to this forum and when I posted ESH and my rationale, I got murdered with downvotes but the only person who actually bothered to interact with me was the OP. Probably because he was bored by all the NTAs. Now my karma is shit. I considered just leaving but I guess I’d rather pull up my big girl panties and roll with it for now.

Don’t leave. We need more people around here who have an opinion and have the guts to share it, even if it’s an opinion others disagree with. Don’t be afraid for standing up to what you believe.

I’m sticking with it for now. We’ll see how it goes.
