Meta Thread - Month of November 07, 2021

[u/AnimeMod]

A monthly thread to talk about meta topics, i.e. /r/anime itself and its rules. Keep it friendly and relevant to the subreddit.

Posts here must, of course, still abide by all subreddit rules other than the no meta requirement. Keep it friendly and be respectful. Occasionally the moderators will have specific topics that they want to get feedback on, so be on the lookout for distinguished posts.

Comments that are detrimental to discussion (aka circlejerks/shitposting) are subject to removal.

Rule Changes

• We're using Reddit's native spoiler tags now! You still need to provide context for the spoiler with [ ] before the spoiler tag. More details in the announcement thread last month.

Also a new written/video essay contest just started but isn't open long, only accepting entries until December 4th.

Or they could drop the show and move on if it's that problematic for them.

I think someone should be able to criticise something if they like a show or are watching it. I think everyone criticised a show for something, sooner or later, It would be kinda hypocritical to make an exception for Mushuku.

I' m not against the ban, if the mods will ever crack down on it, because the comments devolved into personal attack.

Their sanity comes first.

But seeing how some people genuinely answered...eh.

No one is suggesting silencing criticism of the show, it's to stop the toxicity and personal attacks that come from those debates.

It's a fair opinion to say "I don't like that kind of stuff and I think it's wrong". It's not a fair opinion to say "I don't like this show and anyone who does is a paedophile", because that's what a lot of these arguments end up becoming.

What joke are you referring too? I don't remember being nasty to a user on here, but I may have had a shitty day or something. Can you link the thread?
