The study of "r/place", how it evolves, and the pattern of admin interference is a long standing r/place tradition. The discussion AFTER r/place lasts much longer than r/place itself.

Admins getting caught astroturfing "fuck spez" IS the story. A pansy tribute will get 0 airtime. Putting admins on their heels and forcing them to interfere to whitewash the messaging is actually AWESOME for the continued dialogue around Reddit and spez' incompetence

And if they DON'T whitewash it, or can't keep up, and fuck spez' remains plastered everywhere too... That's a different BUT STILL GREAT story.

Posting fuck spez is a can-not-lose scenario for driving discussion. It's driving this one, right now, as I type this.

...other than it generates money for reddit and gives them incentive to continue as planned.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
