edit: small fun update here, big ones down below the original text
— — —
Very abridged highlights reel, more to follow. Powerlessjannies went predictably berserk and have continued throughout the night. These were some of my favorites.
If you’re just tuning in to this horrifically depressing saga, I’d recommend starting with their initial plans to “play to users’ psychology” and close half the site until Reddit does what they want and the next-day admin response to their cries.
Key takeaways:
- Belle’s “I’m leaving forever and I really mean it this time” meant exactly as much as it did the first 747382828 times she said it. She is still hideously ugly, for anyone keeping score.
- Mr. Davis: no, http://rdrama.net was not down. You’re just bad with computers.
- Mr. Mega: there were no new screenshots because we were building dramatic tension and letting the admin response simmer for the evening before posting this one. You weren't hidden. I'm sorry.
- They considered going against the chadmins and closing everything immediately because “lives are at stake,” but handwringing from BelleAriel & Co. about losing their incredibly important internet moderator positions made them come to their senses.
- They intend to cry to more dead media outlets and get them to screech that Reddit is LITERALLY KILLING PEOPLE if their impotent demands aren’t met.
- They’re actively watching us 🤗 I know you guys run in different - and yet equally embarrassing - circles, but I’d recommend reading this thread and this one too, if you’d like some things to be mad at Reddit for that actually matter. Please stop enabling child abuse and womanbeating. It’s not cute.
Anyway thanks for all the content, I’ll continue scrolling later. Stop banning innocent people to stop the “leaks” - it’s not doing anything lol

Update 1: They‘re planning to mass tweet at Reddit advertisers on Monday lmao
Update 2: New plan is to - oh my god - write to their congressmen. Using a Reddit bot.
Update 3: Not a development, but definitely my favorite quote of this whole affair so far.
Update 4: This update is a few pieces long. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
First we have the beginnings of a very long discussion about unionizing. An unpaid internet janitor union with negative value whose replacements can be easily automated or done by literally any shut-in.
Our boy conalfisher is once again the voice of reason though. Join us here conal!
Merari (lmao) has unironically declared jannie to be a transphobic slur. You cannot make this shit up.
Seb (I think he's meant to be the leader of this shitshow?) has directly linked the main image of this thread He's not happy!
He's demanded that everyone in that screenshot change their Groomercord display name so as not to reflect their Reddit identity which they think will allow them to operate anoynmously, since they have realized the futility of trying to stop the "leaks". Let's see how that goes for them.
Update 5: Seb thinks he figured out the leak issue! I will refrain from updating for a few hours. Is this because you got me Seb? Or am I playing along?

Or they just use their admin powers to unlock everything and permaban the people ruining their website, and find new autists to use for below minimum wage in the morning

I have interned for a Congressman. FYI those mass emails, faxes, or mailers to your congressman get counted and shredded. All the Congressman gets is a monthly google sheet that says 50 letters for gun control, 30 against gun control, and 10 for universal income. I guarantee that resistbot might not even be read because of how useless that info is. When anyone can spam there Congressman it means nothing.

no, your position is maintained by a database entry controlled by the person you want to take on, you are literally 1 keystroke away from not having any power at all times.

I live in Morrowind, and it fricking sucks. I made a thread about this a lonnnng time ago, but this bears repeating.
Dwemer armor and weapons are more expensive in Morrowind. The prices are ridiculous, and it's hard for me to justify buying dwemer even though I feel it's important for fans to make an effort to support the industry.
If you are a girl, you will be groped and treated like shit. I have had men grab my butt in public 7 different times in the past year and a half. My Dunmer friends say that women should just grit their teeth and bear it, since if you try to do something about it you will be publicly shamed. I also feel dirty and pathetic when these incidents occur.
Guild culture in Morrowind is...intense. You are expected to show up at social gatherings even if you do not want to. And at these social gatherings people have the EXACT SAME CONVERSATIONS AGAIN AND AGAIN. I've had like 50 conversations about having seen a mudcrab the previous day. You have to say "good morning" every day in a very specific way, and if you don't then someone will approach you and tell you that's not how things are done at the XYZ's guild.
The people treat outlanders like shit. Even the ones who try to be nice come across as condescending and rude by Cyrodiilic standards. There are also a large number of Dunmer men who think outlander women are sluts and that they can get you to open your legs at the drop of a hat. Frickers.
I wish all the Morrohiles could actually visit GLORIOUS RESDAYNIA. They'd change their tune.

Davis you fricking r-slur you lack the memory of a 6 year old. Jesus Christ you powermod losers got cucked by antivaxx worm disinfectant eating autists (we all know you are reading this, and frick you in particular Davis)
Conal I Stan you, please show those powerjannies the light that they are replaceable losers. And please don’t kill SRD I beg of you, as much as I support can the SRDines it’s the only remaining drama sub on Reddit without too many absurd rules.
Oh and as for you losers needing to come to terms with losing mod powers to save human lives, how long has it been since you saw sunlight ?
Anyway jannies good luck getting cucked. At least we get rid of the powermod menace with this shitshow

That's right SRD. Adapt as needed. But the day of the can will come soon

Is it really a drama sub when all they do is screech about r/conservative and r/kia every day?

If they were to ban anything from r/conservative it'd be a huge improvement. But that'll never happen because that subreddit stopped being about drama a long time ago.

When did they shutter SRD? I posted n8s wall of text there first so you people didn't even have a chance to make a post on it
Oh and adding to that the powermod gang jumped on threads about it way too fast for you people to do anything anyway so it was a failed mission on SRD anyway
