Hello.

Since the founder of this subreddit wasn't doing much to watch over this place, I decided to take things into my own hands and well... now I'm the captain of this sub!

This place is getting an overhaul in the coming days. Thus far, I've removed and approved a few posts and comments, established some guidelines, added post flairs, added text to the sidebar, and a couple other minor updates.

Post flairs include "Shitty Price", "Shitty Condition", "Counterfeit", "False Advertising", "Scalping", and "Scam".

Here's the plan.

  • Provide more in-depth rules.

  • Keep an eye out for any violations.

  • Approve posts falsely removed as spam by Reddit

  • Create a wiki index.

  • Establish a moderation team.

  • Reach a wider audience.

  • Set up u/AutoModerator and add CSS.

  • Decorate the subreddit's layout.

Not specifically in that order.

Hope to make this subreddit a little less shitty.

Hello everyone!

We are excited to announce a couple of changes to the community's rules in light of some review we've done of the Sub's posting habits and trends.

  1. Memes are now allowed any day, any time, and not exclusively on Mondays.
    The traffic of memes on this Sub is so slow, that we figured that it did not make sense to continue restricting them to only Mondays. As such going forward, please feel free to post memes any time you wish!

  2. DKOldies posts are now permitted, but only on Merchant Mondays
    Dunking on places like DKOldies is fun, even if it is low-hanging fruit, which between its low-hanging fruit status and the actions of a certain spammer were the main reasons behind restricting these posts. We've decided to allow posts related to DKOldies as well as any other shitty merchants, but, these posts are now restricted to "Merchant Mondays" which also leads us into our final change.

  3. "Meme Mondays" are now "Merchant Mondays"
    Pretty self-explanatory, memes are now allowed 24/7, and have been replaced with "Merchant Mondays" to dunk on known vendors who have shady practices.

Please note that we still have to tweak the AutoMod, so, your DKOldies posts may still be auto-removed for the time being. We will have this corrected ASAP.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to the team via Modmail.

Thank you!
