Oh no I was agreeing with you that the bot was dumb and rude cause /s and other tone indicators are good and helpful, especially for neurodivergent folks
harassing people isn't allowed here nor on the old sub. why should making less funny posts be expected over, you know, having a culture of people not being dicks cause they didn't get something.
Thinking about it, yeah... That tracks. I think I must have internalized a sort of humor-chauvinism that I hadn't really examined before. Somehow, 'making a joke more recognizable to readers,' just didn't feel related to accessibility until now.
Seems absurd in hindsight, so I'm glad you brought it up.
lol. remember the automod for /s from r/cth?
I miss that bot by golly
Oh god I remember that it existed but I don't remember what it said
I’ve tried to remember a few times, I remember it was something like “ooooh lookout everybody this mf is using /s on r/cth”
For some reason this reminded me of part of it: "please treat this dumbfuck's sarcasm to an appropriate response"

Yeah mocking tone indicators probably isn't the vibe we want on this site

I always kind of figured the bot itself was tongue in cheek

god forbid someone doesn't get a joke because it isn't labelled "joke"

in conclusion /s bad and this site is good :)

I like when people use the /s
:cringe:
Pretty much all the bots on the old sub were annoying. And all reddit bots. Except n word bot.
n word bot was a true comrade
People who were raiding the server after stalking a comrade from some other sub always got mad when the bot finds the n word
This is the first I'm hearing of the /s tag having utility for accessibility.
Seems like a really good point, consider me a convert to the Sarc Mark Crew.

We need to bring that one back. The volcel police automod too.
That one was just annoying IMO
Something about the picture of the car that said “Cumming police” or something like that with the motion waves was hilarious to me
I guess I should say, the bot itself was fine, the way people would invoke it was annoying as shit
