As mod on that (gossip) comm I agree. To be honest, I also think it’s unnecessary to have two separate dunking comms based on whether someone is a public figure or a random person. A lot of times that distinction can be quite blurry, and I don’t blame people for choosing to post in Slop instead, as that is the more active comm.
Reunite El Chisme and Slop to a single comm, and remove slop’s rule #8. “Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/gossip”
I still contend that changing the name to the dunk court would’ve fixed the problem with a single word and actually represent what dunking on our ideological enemies really meant to everyone using the term
this 100% but i suppose we’re slop pigs now
i had to smh at the last dunkmetapost when we had an admin say that “dunk” terminology is racist, like way to misunderstand the entire reason for changing the name from dunk_tank. like nobody and i mean literally not a single soul on the entire planet or any other place in the galaxy is referring to dunk tanks when they say “dunk on 'em”
