    There’s no excuse for fumbling along like this is new. Better-run sites know what’s coming and stick close to their initial rules.

    If your site hosts pornographic drawings and you don’t have a crystal clear line on whether that includes Bart Simpson, you are a fucking idiot.

    If your site involves politics and you don’t have a crystal clear line on whether Nazis are welcome, you are a fucking idiot.

    If your site welcomes leftist counterculture and you don’t have a crystal clear line on whether that includes making guns, smoking pot, or copying text, you are a fucking idiot.

    The DDOS is something I’ve gladly weathered, in light of the admins taking it as an opportunity to debug the codebase. But what they’ve posted in-between those updates is “yeah btw we banned another thing that wouldn’t raise an eyebrow on 2015 reddit.” I’m not sure I want to stick around with that even if service was flawless.
