If this feels like a bug and not a feature, stop acting shady and you won't need to hide in the shadows

It’s also useful when one of Turkey’s posts gets approved somehow

I has seen the light

Mods are immune from breaking rules? Sounds suspiciously like mod logic to me.

If something gets "disapproved" there's a good reason........99% of the time.....we're not all out there telling you no for the hell of it

You mean like enforcing a rule that isn't listed? I see a lot of that.

Give me an example I will bring it up with the "counsel" ;-)......sadly, if you are in a "user created" stream, there's not much that can be done......some are run by complete (fill in the blank)s who have agendas

Interestingly, I don't believe I've ever had a meme rejected from the fun stream. That where I started and mostly where I'm ending up these days. On top of enforcing TOS, I've only seen them reject politcal memes and reposts, which is totally fair.

The meme that clued me into the approval history trick was a topically relevant, rule abiding meme rejected from hornistream for being "just cringe". I wound up there after leaving hornystream for its culture of allowing trolls, despite a rule against trolling. If asking people to follow their own rules is too much, they at least deseve to be written off as not worth the aggravation.

And it's good to know who they are, so a grudge isn't held against the entire stream. Not that I want to contribute to streams where complete [redacted] are allowed to be moderator.

Am I getting an example of something not approved that you think is wrong or?

Nothing specific. Whistlelock doxed himself for rejecting a meme with a moderate viewpoint in politicstoo a while back. I've had 4 or 5 painfully dark memes rejected from darkhumour for not being dark, despite that stream stating that everyone already knows what dark humor is. (Except them, I guess, since one of the MODERATORS there posts his own shit that isn't dark at all.) I've been soured to a few other streams for similar reasons. You're right though, if it's a user made stream then they can run it as poorly as they want.

well, I can't speak for Dark Humor.....if you understand that mess of rules they have there, more power to you! lol......I am friendly with the stream owner though if that helps.......

I want to make it clear that I have no quarrel with you or any of your moderations, and for whatever it's worth I honestly respect you and appreciate what you contribute to this site.

I was momentarily miffed about the tree booty meme but the stream rules explicitly state female booty so that was my bad. The reason given about it being an inanimate object was a tad sus since trees are alive and living things aren't inanimate, but that's 100% beside the point. (It did tempt me to submit pics of sex dolls with shapely asses, but I only troll when I feel I'm not in the wrong, and in all things booty, I have been the offending party.)

Really this entire meme isn't meant to come down on mods, or even imply that a systemic flaw exists with things as they are. No doubt there are people who would abuse the information I've provided. The only reason I care about it at all is to identify whether the rules in a user made stream are being ignored by a moderator or a stream owner, and it makes no difference because in either case the result is the same: I leave that stream.

I apologize if any of this appeared to be directed at your actions. Holy crap, if I have a problem with moderations that follow the rules then no one should give a fxck what I think in the first place. If you ever step on me toes (unfairly) I promise I'll let you know, but based on what I know of you so far I just don't see that happening. ✌️

Your apology is appreciated dude (and I did give you another possible destiation for your tree booty image I believe that wouldve been fine), Im just trying to rememdy your pain. I have some sway with some people here and am always happy to make things better for users here......
