This subverse now has a new rule: No untagged NSFW content
This includes depictions of nudity, violence, and gore. Any untagged posts will be tagged by the moderators and flaired as appropriate, and for both posts and comments a formal warning will be issued to the user. Three warnings in a seven day period will result in a permanent ban from the subverse. Any bans related to this rule will contain a link to the comment detailing the violations in the ban reason, visible in the log of banned users. Enforcement of this rule will begin tomorrow, 2018-12-08.
Example warning:
This [post|comment] violates the rule "No untagged NSFW content". In the future, please [tag your post via the "toggle nsfw" option|designate your comment as NSFW by having a description of the content or "NSFW" somewhere in the comment]. Note that three violations of this rule within a period of seven days will result in a permanent ban.
Your previous violations of this rule:
If you see any untagged NSFW posts or comments, please report and select the new rule or ping the mods.
Thank you to everyone who weighed in on the previous discussion about implementing rules. I believe this is the best course of action to maintain the subverse's integrity while still upholding voat's core principles of freedom and transparency. Please feel free to discuss, and let me know if you have any concerns or possible changes you'd like to see.

It's not my sub, it's a system sub. I'm just trying to manage it responsibly and in line with the spirit of voat.

Funny then why you allow a group to manipulate vote and only upvote each other? Liar.
Dog with cancer is not gore either faggot.

I don't have any real power to deal with vote manipulation or brigading. Do you expect me to ban the the people involved who keep posting content that pretty clearly fits the purpose of this subverse? That would be actual censorship and suppression, the opposite of what voat stands for. Otherwise I can't do anything to prevent their votes from having an effect.
Only the voat admins could detect and address a problem like vote manipulation.

So you do know who these peolpe are and that they indeed are together and working as a group to manipulate votes and downvote everyone else? The people involve admit they are working together to upvote each other and they work together to downvote everyone else.
And you do nothing? Why? Because you're involved. You allow this shit to continue.

I can't win here. If I remove any posts or ban anyone, I'm censoring and denying people their freedom of speech like some kind of cancerous reddit mod. If I don't, I allow the shitposters to flood the subverse and upvoat each other en masse. It's an awkward spot to be in, I hope you can where I'm coming from.

Yeah i see where you are coming from. At least take some action in private with the owners of this site to do something about it.
