You can stop being dishonest at anytime now. Your timeline is backwards. They were not singled out for "censorship" before their abuse. That doesn't even make sense. Again, please notice the immediate effect of having the tool taken away from the mods. Hardly anything is organically upvoted from that subreddit anymore. >Should they be nice to a community that consistently calls it the_dipshit Why are you going to purposefully ignore why they have that reputation? This is like having a guy in the group that continually does annoying or obnoxious things, gets told off and then tells everyone else to "chill." >the number of posts it was possible to have on the front page, and a few others. Which was global. >Saying the change to sticky policy is what's keeping the_donald posts off the front page of /r/all would be incorrect. Except it is not. They do not reach top spots on /r/all anymore. We're talking about single posts, not the number of posts, but they don't reach as high as they used to.

You can stop being dishonest anytime now. You have a limited perspective. They had to make several internal rule changes specific to them (which they enforce) before any site wide changes happened. They get brigaded and attacked just like any other major political sub, but only they have unique rules made for them. Why are you purposefully ignoring why they act that way? It's like having a guy in the group who thinks it's acceptable to push people around because they have a majority opinion, and double down when people don't accept it. They had several posts at the top of /r/all yesterday [1-4], but I guess they don't go as high. 1. https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gvy1j/the_new_algorithm_was_designed_to_keep_president/ https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gvy1j/the_new_... 2. https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gwnwx/reddit_voting_algorithm_has_changed_will_this/ https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gwnwx/reddit_v... 3. https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gvazb/boom_trump_announces_sprint_agreement_to_invest/ https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gvazb/boom_tru... 4. https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gwe8n/posted_this_to_rgentlemanboners_it_was_down_voted/ https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5gwe8n/posted_t...

  >They had to make several internal rule changes specific to them (which they enforce) before any site wide changes happened. And you can see the reasons for this expounded upon in the ancestor comments of this thread. There is a very clear cause and effect for these actions. Ignoring them is you being dishonest. >They get brigaded and attacked just like any other major political sub Of which there seems to be very little evidence for.

This claim lacks consistency at best and at worst continues to be willfully dishonest about the actions taken by the subreddit towards the community as a whole. >They had several posts at the top of /r/all yesterday [1-4], but I guess they don't go as high. Yes, they do not go as high and the frequency at which this happens has dramatically decreased. Indicating that previously front-paged threads were not organic.
