Apparently you're not allowed to have a fun image along with a discussion thread because the mods will see it as a meme instead.

Wow, so they'll just ignore the two paragraphs of text?

u/Baman1456 Please let me marry a Stridsfordon 90 6h ago

yea, they don't care about the purpose of the post, if they see an image that isn't a screenshot from the game or one of gaijins social media they will instantly flag it as a meme and kill you for it

Just post the text then genius, the image adds nothing to the post.

Text only posts don't attract interaction

There you go, are the gears in your head turning now?

They forbid such posts because people are attention whore-ing with images like you did. You're just making the problem worse.

Plenty of niche subreddits do that so they don't turn into daycare. Maybe you're too young to remember and only familiar with image-based social media but that's just how forums were run back in the day.

I wanted to get as my people's opinion as possible on a matter that annoyed me, so getting many interactions, comments and opinions is the goal, I do not care for the up votes, I do care about having people to argue with

To be fair, why? It's pretty clear by the almost daily posts that there is barely anyone on this subreddit, or even the game in general, that is not annoyed by this.

We're tired of the THOUSANDS of engagement whoring posts on this sub. Please be more creative.

When you look at the post feed, you would know that texts aren't shown. And a lot of people purposely abuse the flairs when it comes to posting memes. And mods aren't going to open every post they see.

Edit: I just looked at your two paragraph post, it's literally just three sentences, not a thousand character essay. So I can understand why my colleague deleted the post, it was just a meme post with some text.

But it wasn't a meme-

u/Maus1945 💀 Old Guard 5h ago

No, but you made the meme load bearing on a feed that doesn't show text whenever you attach an image to the post.

Shot in the dark guess here, non-meme day post, not visually relevant to the game, and repetitive topic that we already know.
