The fact that even happened tbh is insane tbh, but I’m so glad that people are now jumping ship tbh esp what the dumb decisions Reddit has made in the past couple of years.

You are being very honest

MagicShel ,

From now on, unless I see three declarations of honesty, I’m going to assume they are being at least somewhat dishonest.

MagicShel ,

My reply to to be honest is always oh, were you lying before?.

Usually gets a confused laugh.

Looking through their comment history, they proclaim their honesty quite often, it’s pretty funny when you’re looking for it 😆

I’ve now tagged them so I’ll remember that they are very honest: very honest user

xnx ,

I meant the screenshots that explain the situation 😅

curbstickle ,

It’s not readable in general, but the first screenshot is about the mods being complicit, the second is the post in question. The post claims a way to “unlock coursehero, chegg + more” and points to a discord. There isn’t really more than that.

u/dysgraphical then said:

The mod u/ Furdiburd10 who manually approved and stickied the post has been removed from the mod team. Reddit’s spam filter actually caught it early on and the community helped mass report. They also fully censored comments from yall calling it out.

Sorry we let this slip. This shit happened seven years ago too for folks that were around that time: torrentfreak.com/reddits-piracy-sub-reddit-reopen…

Edit: If you were banned by this loser or muted, please DM me and I’ll comb through the logs and work on reinstating you back.

I tried to see about grabbing the post by pirat_nation for the screenshots, but the tweet doesn’t show and I don’t have/won’t use a twitter account.

Wait, I can make it smaller

Smaller! Smaller!

FeelThePower ,

Least controversial day on Reddit.

lemmyaccount01 ,

I’m not going to reddit can someone explain what it is ? Somebody paid a mod to promote a website ? what posts ? I don’t even know how reddit works exactly. Are promoted posts not allowed or very obvious ? They didn’t disclose ?

DAMunzy ,

This is a copy and paste from one of the mods of r/Piracy:

The mod u/ Furdiburd10 who manually approved and stickied the post has been removed from the mod team. Reddit’s spam filter actually caught it early on and the community helped mass report. They also fully censored comments from yall calling it out.

Flax_vert ,

I took a bribe on my Minecraft server once. Although I made them change it from going to me to being a direct donation and keeping it a secret. I also confirmed it with the owner who was basically paying for it out of pocket lol. Good times.

No honor among thieves. Remember that.

Good thing pirates ain’t thieves and that out moto is “sharing is caring”

Megaman_EXE ,

Oh shit that’s not good. I suppose it’s bound to happen, though. Money talks.

Could happen anywhere

Bassiette03 ,

What happened last night??

GBU_28 ,

Never assume you are asking some upper crust, high minded group.
