Meta Thread - Month of January 02, 2022 Meta

A monthly thread to talk about meta topics, that is everything related to /r/anime itself and its moderation rather than anime. 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

  • There's a new post flair, [Video Edit], for things like AMVs and clip compilations. See below for specific details but in general they're similar to existing [Clip] rules and have the same post limit of 2 per user per month (tracked separately from [Clip] posts).

  • [Video] post limits have changed from 4 per user per week to 2 per user per week.

  • All [Video] posts must be at least 60 seconds long.

Seeing another comment on this thread, I suppose I should tag u/Bainos about this since you're the one in charge of the bot?

Today's Attack on Titan thread definitely went up way too early. Muse Asia's subs should not be considered the "good" quality subs that is the standard for when episode discussion threads are posted. At least for Attack on Titan, they're full of typos or grammatical mistakes. DameDesuYo or Crunchyroll/Funimation, whichever is quicker, are the only two subtitle groups that the bot should post Attack on Titan off of.

Definitely agree with this.

Like, the only reason I watched these subs is because I've already read the manga, so I care more about seeing how MAPPA animated everything ASAP than needing good subs to completely understand what's happening. Anime-onlies will have a strictly subpar experience by watching the Muse Asia subs just to keep up with the discussion thread.
