[50/50] Users follow the rules | Subreddit Quarantine (SFW)
In response to the volume of rule infractions in the past months, we've taken a cue from world governments and their response to COVID-19. We have implemented a quarantine on all new submissions. In effect, only those posts manually approved by the mod team will make it through. These measures have been taken for two reasons:
-
It's easier to approve 10% of posts than to remove, flair, and ban users for 90% of posts.
-
It promotes quality submissions. Certain undesirable posts were escaping mod attention, and they led users to believe that certain offending content was actually acceptable here. We believe that by seeing better quality submissions, users will be inclined to model them.
Important to note that this has nothing to do with the admins and their quarantine tool for subs. We had noticed an uptick in the anti-evil team at reddit removing posts (approximately 5 times in the last 90 days vs. never), but that has not been a cause for concern.
How to Make a True5050 Post
Use 5050.stannaz or 5050.lowyiyiu to generate the link.
Please note that posts which include porn, cute animals, and spoilers must be in true 5050 format.
If you ever want a mod , I know several people who will be willing to moderate.Seems like you guys need more active mods .
I’ve seen a lot of rule breaking stuff here too and can’t do anything about it .
We've been slowly recruiting. Thank you for signaling an interest. Feel free to reach out in modmail to receive a quiz.
Your welcome.I can make it known to a more appropriate user.
Thank you for willing to help get others to keep the shit out of this sub, and thank you for the other mods for at least trying to keep shit out of this sub. You can do this bois
Where’s that? I’m interested.
Where would I find modmail? Is that a separate app or a feature in reddit. I would be interested in being a mod as well.
On the sidebar, there's a link to message the mods.
I am currently on the Android App, but I think I found it. Or at least I found an envelope icon next to the list of mods and I sent a message.
Thank you.
What's considered rule breaking on this 🤔
Shouldn't reposts be taken out of the feed too then? Since the mods are already going through all of the posts anyways?
Too many cooks in the kitchen for that to work
uhhhh ok
You mods really have nothing better to do but ruin a perfectly good subreddit huh? I remember when this subreddit used to have tits. smh imagine taking yourself so seriously you go on a crusade against tits on a subreddit that used to be fun
People can still post them. Also, pornhub premium is free right now. If your wrist isn't already too sore from jacking your cock raw, try there.
My only problem with this is the amount of new posts is dropped, as of currently the last post was 22 hours ago.
Yeah this sub is pretty well ruined at this point
So we either have rule breaking posts, change the rules, or stop intervening.
I'd take smaller amounts of quality.
I also say that because I actually see the shit that gets refused, and it's so bad.
How long will it take to approve each post?
I dunno. I tend to peek at them every six hours or so.
Poor mod team they will have nightmares for years
Will this be permanent?
Dunno
more porn is needed
I don’t get it. What exactly is being moderated? What rules were being broken and how does this change effect my experience?
Every post on this sub gets put into purgatory. We manually sort through them. You only see the ones we approve as compliant.
You will see fewer posts overall, but they will be compliant with the rules. You'll see less garbage.

If you want to link it to me, I can tell you what's wrong with it.
If you continue with that tone, I will ban you.
Didn’t answer my question. What rules were commonly being broken?
I legit don’t know
Most posts don't feel rewarding, it should be "blessed" thing and "cursed" thing right? But why is it a mundane thing and the cursed thing? Did I get it wrong and I'm just too whiny or there is someone else that would like to have better sfw things?
If you're finding the good results mundane, then I'll have a second look at what's been approved.
That was kinda a little bit of the fun seeing offensive posts though imo
Offending posts =/= offensive posts
It means they break the rules. Stuff like [50/50] Boobies | Boobies NSFW with a picture of a bird.
What if the bird is a blue footed booby?
Then either type Booby (the bird) with a description of context, or don't post it.
The whole point of the post is to make a joke based on wordplay, and a joke becomes less funny when you explain it. Like that early post on 5050, chicks in a blender/chicks near a blender.
Wouldn't it be obvious if it's porn, cute animals, or spoilers if it's in the format thus making it easier for people to kind of 'cheat' the system?
In what sense? That content is only allowed in true 5050 format. Even if someone wanted to use that description in the fake option, it would be removed since that kind of content belongs in true 5050
As in someone will look at the true 5050 format and go "Okay, since they used 5050Desu (or whatever it's called) that means they'll know what it isn't, would be like posting a NSFW 5050 but the link is obviously YouTube so you know which is which.
If they use a true 5050 link, it has to be possible to get both options. That's the point of it being true 5050. It is impossible to discern which result you'll get ahead of time.
I don't understand your point.
Guess I misunderstood.
Ah so that's why the sub is dead
Lol
Based
This sub is not 5050. I just viewed the top 20 of all time posts, 95% of them are SFW. You really should rename the sub to 95 or 5 % or something like that. NOT COOL
Blame the people who only upvote the good shit. I can assure you that the new content is mostly the bad stuff.
Is this real? I'm confused.
Yes. I've throttled all new posts to control bad content at the gate instead of playing whack a mole after the fact.
Yes I will
It’s so good to see this. I hate seeing people blatantly break the rules then whine about it when people complain.
Hvjgv
I watched every video yay
...
Hey, all I’m saying, is that I haven’t seen a good 5050 in awhile. People only like to post the awful stuff, and no one posts the good things any more... at least that’s how I feel
I've posted two good things. Did you see the leather lobster?
Many of the people who post good stuff don't follow the rules.
Yeah actually, I did see that. It was pretty cool, but that’s the only good thing that I remember seeing in a little while

69 days NICE

That's just reddit 100/100
If you want to view nsfw stuff on iPhone go to settings on your phone then go to the apps section and click on reddit and you should find an option to view nsfw content.
ok
ok
Yeees
Noice
How do I get the ok ones that won’t ruin my day ???
Go
Gx
Don't care

It's referenced as a joke. Lighten up.
its a serious thing.
Are we allowed to make an SFW-only post?
Yeah, just say not NSFW in the title. That bit is just there to make sure people have read the rules
Ok, thanks.
Prrrrrrr
Is there any way to see new post because my post have been the same for the past 2 weeks

Hi, i wanted to ask, what isnt allowed? And what are your rules?
Never mind sorry i found them, im quite new to reddit and didn't know where to look!
Sounds good!
If you ever want a mod , I know several people who will be willing to moderate.Seems like you guys need more active mods .
I’ve seen a lot of rule breaking stuff here too and can’t do anything about it
When the top mods decide that they want to be relevant to the sub, then the rest of us will be more active. Until then w/e

Yeah. That's why I had enough with modding.
