I get that some people really love beanis, but the volume of beanis posts in badposting is really overwhelming for others who just don’t get it or find it funny.
Since there isn’t (to my knowledge) a word-based post blocking feature for individual users, can beanis posting get its own comm so that people don’t have to completely block badposting to stop seeing 50 posts of beans dildos and beans in cup holders and shit?
And when /c/beanisposting gets created, a new meme will take over /c/badposting, and when people whine about that meme being spammed too much, /c/stalememeposting1 will get created, and when yet another meme is being spammed too much, /c/stalememeposting2 will get created, leading to another meme being spammed too much and so on. /c/badposting by its very design will always be spammy with a few memes floating to the top. It’s just more noticeable to you right now because the FOTY meme is a meme you don’t find funny.
I also find it funny that people are complaining about beanis spam when Hexbear is being hit with “I’m curious” spam. At least you can just block /c/badposting if you think beanis sucks. Meanwhile, “I’m curious” spam is throughout the site.
i’m curious will be fresh for a few more hours. beanis has been here for months and is played out
Who cares? I don’t understand the hostility to making a separate comm, comms are free. Beanis has been around for months, if not longer, and if another meme gets this stale and played out to the point where there have been multiple struggle sessions about containing it, there’s literally no reason not to make a containment comm.
We already have a containment comm. It’s called /c/badposting. You want a containment comm for the containment comm and presumably multiple containment comms of the containment comm since /c/badposting would just spam a different meme if beanis gets banned there.
Because a bunch of dead comms is itself a form of spam. Who wants to scroll through a bunch of dead comms clogging up the list in the communities tab? A lot of the dead comms like /c/taylorswift or /c/chapotraphouse3 should just be merged with /c/main, /c/chapotraphouse, /c/memes, or even /c/badposting.
It goes back to my point about you being annoyed about one particular form of spam while not caring about another. You don’t care about “I’m curious” spam or dead comms spam because you either don’t care or think they’re funny while you care about beanis spam because you think beanis is cringe. It’s fine to have your own personal preference, but you’re not the only person who browses this website and not everyone shares the same personal preference as you.
Seriously, nobody here goes, “all the memes on /c/badposting are funny except for the beanis posting.” The vast majority of people here either block /c/badposting because they think both beanis and non-beanis /c/badposting posts are unfunny low-effort trash or they do not care about /c/badposting. And now that I think about it, beanis isn’t even the most used meme on /c/badposting. The most used meme is pissing/farting/shitting/sharding. How many /c/badposting posts have a punchline that ends in the expulsion of solid (shit), liquid (piss), or gaseous (fart) waste? So, this whole post is just you not liking beanis even though beanis is arguably not even the most overused meme/joke on /c/badposting.
