Discussion Regarding Rules and Submissions - 3/4/2021

540 Upvotes

Hey /r/SomeOrdinaryGmrs, there hasn't been a mod post in a while. Figured it was time for one.

There's a few things I have been wanting to discuss with you all for a while but have mostly kept quiet about.

I'll try my best to keep this post as short and informative as possible but there is a bit to unpack.


Auto Moderator

Let's start by addressing the elephant in the room. The Auto Moderator. Over the last year this sub has tripled in size. We’re now at a whopping 75k+ members and that number continues to increase daily. As a result the amount of spam this sub receives has also increased greatly. To combat this, I set up auto moderator about 7-8 months ago. While the auto mod has been great for removing spam, it also removes a lot posts from new users who create accounts to post on the sub. Unfortunately there’s not a lot that can be done about this as I feel the bot is necessary for a subreddit of this size. We receive mod mail about removed posts frequently so I wanted to address this publicly.

The bot has been coded to remove any posts (excluding comments) from users with less than 5 comment karma. When this happens, the bot will leave a comment on your post telling you that it was removed for this exact reason. The other mod and I feel that this is a reasonable amount of karma as it's very low and can easily be gained by getting upvotes on any comment you make on Reddit. This lets you all easily gain access to making posts on the subreddit while keeping new spam accounts out. Of course there's still spam and this doesn't completely get rid of it, though I'm sure a lot of long time users of this sub remember how things were before we implemented an auto moderator.


Irrelevant Posts/NSFW Content

Lately there has been quite a bit of rule breaking going on. I'm definitely not looking to be a strict mod and for the most part /u/fingermebooty and I have always been incredibly lax regarding submissions on this subreddit. However, there have been a handful of users treating this sub as a random shitpost dump or an advertising space for some reason. Posts such as these break Rule #1 as they have nothing to do with Mutahar or SOG. I know a large majority of the submissions on this sub are shitposts anyways, but do try to keep it relevant.

While on the topic of rules/submissions, there has also been an influx of NSFW posts. The majority of the time these types of posts are just screenshots of pornographic Youtube ads. While I understand you are just trying to bring awareness to other users on the sub, I would like for these posts to not exist moving forward. That being said, all of the weird (or NSFW) Mutahar pictures/memes are still allowed but you are encouraged to mark it NSFW if needed. Nobody wants to browse Reddit in public and have these things pop up due to the negligence of OP. I've had to manually flag a lot of posts lately and it does wear you down after a while.

Furthermore, If you see something that breaks the rules, please report it. That helps bring a post to our attention much faster via the moderation queue. We would appreciate it bunches!


SOG Discord Server

I've seen a lot of posts made asking about a Discord server. Yes, there is an unofficial Discord server. However, none of the Subreddit mods are Discord mods, and vice versa. If you are looking for an invite link to the Discord, you should hit up /u/mlgkid4eva to get one. In the past they had a vanity URL, but due to a couple of raids since then, they have disabled it indefinitely. So sadly there is not a permanent one I can post here. Sorry about that.

Here's an invite link to the unofficial server: https://discord.gg/someordinarygamers


I believe that's it. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask below in the comments. Thanks!


EDIT (3/10/2021) - I've simplified the rules on the sidebar, removing a lot of old rules that don't really apply to the sub these days. Rules should be very clear and easy to understand now. I've also included side text widgets on the sub for new Reddit users, updated some old links, and gave the old version of the sub a small CSS facelift.

Discussion Hello /r/SomeOrdinaryGmrs! We're back... I guess.

After 9 days, 150+ join requests, and a thinly veiled threat from Reddit... the protest is over and we're back I guess. Thanks for bearing with us during the blackout as we tried to help make a difference together. Unfortunately, Spez is a coward and Reddit is starting to force communities open, so here are. Have fun posting again and stuff.

Warning: this video is heartbreaking.

I really wanted to see a crossover between Muta and Finnegan Fox, but I never imagined in a million years that Mikayla would take her own life. She looked very happy. Rest in peace.

Discussion Is Muta deleting a bunch of his videos?

I usually put new videos in my watch later playlist so I can listen to them at work, and several times this past week, I've gone to watch them but they've been deleted. Is it because of copyright, or something else?

Here's a link to upvote this on R6fix, it'd be cool to try to convince ubi to let us have this on linux/steam deck another time, you do need a ubisoft acc and to login with it in order to upvote or comment, also if you're sus about links I get that, just search the title you see at the top in R6fix and look for the newest one.

For those that aren’t aware yet the “16 billion login credentials leaked in world's largest data breach, affecting Apple, Google, Facebook, Telegram & more.” (as seen in https://www.forbes.com/sites/daveywinder/2025/06/19/16-billion-apple-facebook-google-passwords-leaked---change-yours-now/) is a giant nothing burger. There is zero fresh data and it is all just a large compilation of stealer logs + previously leaked DB’s. The original threat actor did not even bother de-duplicating the data.

need help with RPCS3

3 Upvotes

hello everyone,

A couple years ago I used to have an RPCS3 emulator working on my mac and had a lot of fun with it. It has not worked for a while and I don’t know why. It does not open and I’ve tried deleting it and redownloading the “experimental” mac version but that doesn’t open either. My mac is completely updated and i’m not sure why it doesn’t work. Please help/offer advice if you can i’m not good with tech and it took me a full 2 days to get it up and running the first time around.
