How dare the reddit PoE mods lock down the 'official' PoE sub-reddit
This post and post like this one provide zero value to the game. Zero. Nothing to be gained here. Nothing new to learn.
The game is divided by those that promote and do ToS breaking things and those ethical few. That's why they should either close it permanently or hand it over to GGG and that's why all these posts need to be locked away. Like what do you even hope to gain from posts like these? you expect GGG to buy reddit? What's the point? It's a third party. Nothing to do with GGG. You want GGG to be able to do something about it? then, they should either close it permanently or hand it over to GGG. Simple. |

" This isn't about apolo... There are dozens of free third party clients for android, they were there much earlier the official app was released and they are still much better in almost every aspect. Reddit official app has been proven worse than Facebook, Tiktok, Snapchat and Instagram regarding privacy (https://privacy.commonsense.org/evaluation/Reddit) I have been enjoying Reddit since 2012 but nothing lasts forever. If people want to know where this may be going, a lot of people seem to go the fediverse route, including mods of old reddit that already have created a community there for PoE with it's own instance This is also beneficial for PoE official forums. It has been a while since PoE staff don't post on Reddit, get over it people, Reddit is dead. Long live official forums and fediverse! Last edited by sanleon on Jun 15, 2023, 5:17:59 PM

Listen if you think there shouldn't be any community driven discussion that GGG doesn't have authority to moderate, that's certainly one way to go, I doubt people will be clammering to get behind that way of thinking.

" You can't have your cake and eat it too. You can't be judge, jury, and executioner. You can't be the plaintiff and the defendant. You can't be "for the community" and at the same time hurt the community. People love to twist things around and when you confront them with facts they just ignore them and go back to whatever bullet point they where taught. It's almost as if there is no real discussion ever. Just one say saying something and the other side completely ignoring the facts. Last edited by StinkStink on Jun 15, 2023, 3:54:53 PM

" It's not a megaphone though - tweets don't spread on twitter unless a lot of people like and retweet them. Same for videos on Youtube and posts on Facebook (I suppose at FB - I use it solely to run ads so I've got no idea how the algorithms work). The spreading potential of anything on a social network is directly proportionate to how much it resonates with the users, and if there're enough people to push a fringe opinion to the point where it could be considered a megaphone, is it really a fringe opinion? My favorite example of this are flat-earthers - that's an absurdly stupid belief, and it hasn't been censored at all. The result is that the vast majority of everyone recognizes it as the brand of idiocy that it is, and it's not like there's a flood of any flat-earth content on any social network. Allowing stupid ideas to be beaten up in a public discussion is a fairly effective way to push them into irrelevancy while protecting an idea from public discussion by outright banning it gives it sort of a sacred status ('they wouldn't be banning it if it wasn't true').

" This is exactly what your are arguing GGG should be able to do, and control all Reddit discussion topics? (Like they do here to a degree) Nah dude that's not good logic.

" TRUTH !!! |

" 1. GGG doesn't benefit from the shady groups leeching from the game. 2. GGG has a clear code of conduct with rules that are enforced, not abused. No conflict of interest here. No mods or employees secretly working for third parties. 3. There is not a single word on this forum advocating or promoting things that break ToS/CoC. Now, compare that to how the poe sub team does things and you will see it's the complete opposite. Sorry, but the logic is solid. They should either close it permanently or hand it over to GGG. |
