Look, let’s be completely real for a second: this afternoon, 9 users were banned across both our sub and r/orioles.
Our regular crew here knows the deal, but for the casuals floating in when things get heated: Rule 6 isn't just arbitrary red tape.
It’s about the reputation of this community. Nobody wants our sub to be known as the toxic swamp of the league.
To put it plainly, all 29 other MLB team subreddits have this exact same rule for a reason. And if anyone thinks they can just jump over to an opponent's thread to talk trash, raid, or harass people and then run back here to hide, that’s not how this works. The mod teams across all 30 MLB subs have open lines of communication. We talk to each other, we coordinate, and if you raid another team's home turf, you will be banned there, and you will be banned here.
While the series against the O's is officially in the books, we move on to face the Phillies tomorrow. Look, we all know there isn’t some massive, heated divisional rivalry between us and Philly like there is with the rest of the AL East. We want these upcoming game threads to be a fun, relaxed space to just watch some baseball.
But to the casuals who might think a non-rivalry series means the rules don't apply: let this be your reminder.
Going into another team’s subreddit to stir up drama, leave snarky comments, or poke the bear is never going to be met with open arms. Their community doesn't want you there, their mods will flag it instantly, and you’ll find yourself locked out of our sub before the next inning even starts.
Let's keep our business in our own house, enjoy the games, and treat the Phillies threads with some basic respect. |
