r/Pics is doing a new poll to divide their fate, the are 3 options:

  • Continue allowing only pictures of John Oliver looking sexy.
  • Allow any media of John Oliver.
  • Suspend all of /r/Pics’ subreddit-specific rules.

They’re just gonna set the sub on fire!

      That’s what they would do if they’re /r/PICS (“Posts Illustrating Community Sentiment”).

      Reddit admins have said they won’t allow subs to become NSFW if they aren’t actually NSFW. But “Posts Illustrating Community Sentiment” can be anything, even outright porn. And of course, the good moderators at /r/PICS would never allow outright porn without properly marking their subreddit as NSFW…

    I feel like suspending the specific rules is the only viable long term protest. As much fun as John Oliver pics are, eventually people will tire of the meme.

    Reddit is writing their own rules and they’ll rewrite this one to get their way. They’ll just force it back to SFW and remove any mods who undo it.
