/r/NBA is going to participate in the blackout tomorrow. This will happen during game 5 where Denver has the possibility of winning the series/championship. Redditors are not happy.

https://old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1476rje/team_and_community_rnba_is_participating_in_the?sort=controversial

Added context: Denver has never won a championship before, so this is kind of a big deal for them.

Thread is full of slapfights. Here's one that made me chuckle.

>During the finals? Bruh

>Mods and everyone else can pat themselves on the back like they are going to make a difference

>Let me guess. You didn’t vote.

>I mean I didn't vote either bc I don't frequent this sub 24/7 so I missed it. Only 8k of 7.7M voted, but I guess that's enough to take this offline indefinitely. What a joke lol. Sorry Nuggets fans

You can laugh but it’s one of the few subs on Reddit not overrun by women, autismos, and trains.

They're still massive soys though. Whenever ESPN does one of their many non-sports related race baiting articles it's an /r/politics tier circlejerk in there. All of the major default subs are overrun with that shit.

Random communist screeds in the comments too. I hope Reddit dies, the bots, and limp-peepeeed autists are unbearable.

/nbacirclejerk and /denvernuggets are staying open, hopefully they’ll post highlights there.

Idk /r/NBA gives whitepeopletwitter a run for its money when it comes to the soy.

Especially back when people cared about Covid and the whole sub was basically :marseysoycry: over various players not masking.

Kinda sad tbh. I browse game threads for smaller games but imagine being a big Nuggets fan and having no one to watch the finals with but fricking reddit.

I stick to college basketball because I am a flyovercel and my state doesn’t have a NBA team lol.

To be fair, even if they did have a team the local front office would probably be fricking it up in every conceivable way possible.

I remember the bad old days before Reddit. When there was a big happooning, the world just quietly shut off the lights and went to bed because there was literally nothing to do and no place to talk about it.

Idk what the alternative for them would be honestly. Sometimes /sp/ is fun but then the catalog gets spammed with child porn by third worlders

The protest is another in a long line of idiotic moves. If they actually had balls they’d just delete their subs one by one or shutter them completely but jannies fear the loss of their one source of authority in life.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Jannies can claim Reddit would just give sub control to compliant mods and it'd be less effective, and they'd probably be right. And remember they can bring back deleted subs, they did it with KiA I believe

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Assuming they could private the sub indefinitely people would just make another sub and nothing would change. The protest seems stupid but it's basically all the jannies can do. They really should just stop lying to themselves about having any authority in this situation, it's pathetic.

Don't you know how important those subs are? They're LITERALLY saving lives!

Deleting the subs can be reverted, shuttered subs can be opened again

Just stick a final pin to users saying "use reddit.com/report for everything" and then just fricking leave

lmao. they get what they voted for.

i solely use reddit for /r/manga and nobody’s even said a word about the api drama lmao. there’s like a mutual understanding that everyone just uses it to track newest chapter releases. mods aren’t even active, it’s great

it’s kinda the opposite of how /r/onepiece is shutting down. since there’s a month-long series break, nobody cares. but if there was a chapter this week you bet your butt they’d stay open
