All the new people need to know this isn't Reddit. Reddit culture is meaningless here. Don't export it here. Pun threads, low-effort jokes, and memeshit are cancer and will be treated as such.

Yet the user of the top-voted post in this thread posted a thread criticizing the OP for this this very thing. The hell is this. So far I've read two submissions from /v/whatever claiming low-quality posts are frowned upon—the very thing this OP is criticizing—yet he gets criticized by that same sub. At this point Voat users are making themselves out to be hostile to any newcomers, regardless of what they post.

@TheodoreKent and I are touchy for the same reason: 8-hour old accounts already trying to enforce their culture here. Strict moderation is Reddit culture. It's less necessary because there are fewer low-information idiots killing the signal-to-noise with movie references (again, Reddit culture). Voat culture is to say "Fuck you" to Reddit culture but not concern troll that "something needs to be done" about it. Because when you do that /v/SoapDoxBanHammer uses it as a pretext to further consolidate control of the site for SRS, and that's bad for everyone.
