like almost a week before. This is in a public chatroom too.
Idk, like I generally really like our mods and admins but this change doesn’t really make a ton of sense to me and the way it was decided and messaged made it way worse.

Wait what happened
Dunk and dredge tanks are locked down by admins, apparently after the mods and admins discussed it amongst themselves without consulting the userbase.
Originally it was because it turns out dunk tanks have a racist origin, but the rules for the replacement comms are that basically one of them is the dunk tank and the other one is the dredge tank but only for effort posts.
When everyone got upset because that obviously defeats the point of the dredge tank the admins posted a list of the reasons they are closing the subs which was basically “It just gets everyone all riled up and saying mean shit about racist assholes is actually just a cishet white guy activity.”
This also got a shit ton of pushback obviously and then the OP of this thread turned up with this screenshot which seems to indicate that literally everything the admins have been communicating is horseshit.
Idk, I’m not one of the most prominent posters here or anything but I’ve been posting on this site for years now and I’m pretty sad to see it take this turn.
