no kidding, that's the kind of thing that after the first few times it happens, someone from product should flag this and build in a system with redundant checks if you want to send mail to .ml, like:

  1. The user has to have permission to send to .ml in the first place

  2. Any individual .ml address they want to send to has to be whitelisted in a separate UI from email compose (possibly excluding replies)

  3. Any time they send to .ml (or any external domain), the recipient box turns a different color, and there's a notice, CURRENTLY SENDING TO AN EXTERNAL DOMAIN

    • with a list of all external domains included eg you could also be sending to a contractor
    • and a count of the domains
  4. Any .ml sent mail is auto delayed by a couple minutes and requires you to confirm you wanted to send it (again possibly excluding replies)

I would hope there's also some flags emails can have for whatever sensitive info levels, these should also come with automatic client-side and server-side validation that you're not sending them to someone who you shouldn't.

They're asking you, "How would you like to proceed in this case?" Respond as follows:

Hi,

Thanks for replying.

I misunderstood the previous message. I thought it was transparently clear from my initial email that I wanted to cancel my services. You can either refund me for all months billed me or I will contact my credit card company for a fraudulent transaction made. Please let me know how you'd like to proceed.

Best,
WeirdAnimeOtter

  1. Reddit Platinum/Premium/Orange gives you an orange check by your name, for the low cost of $10/month
  2. old.reddit actually still exists, but only if you pay for Reddit Platinum
  3. In order to vote you must have Reddit Platinum
  4. Actually, in order to become a moderator you must have Reddit Platinum - that's right, you have to pay them to volunteer. And you still have to follow the Mod Code of Conduct.

Hi, I opened it and I don't think the sidebar is supposed to be so wide? I'm in Firefox & I checked and no custom styles.

oh wait, the CEO is literally dead, like, he was on the submarine. I thought at first you meant, "The CEO is most definitely out of the company after this" but, you meant that literally.

I have to say, I like discord's reactions quite a bit. But I hated reddit's awards with a violent passion. I'm not sure what the difference is, or if there would be a way to have a reaction-like feature in a public forum. Like, maybe a couple more options than just upvote & downvote (and maybe settable by the mods?) idk.

But anyway, yeah, I agree. I hated the awards, a lot.

Will the tags of the magazine automatically apply to every post within that magazine?

In /r/fantasy, someone recently read Mistborn as their first book and loved it! I would recommend this one. Brandon Sanderson is very approachable, and he doesn't employ tropes like deliberately leaving the reader utterly confused at the same time as the main character (only a little, in manageable doses), or having a huge number of plotlines that intersect at very confusing times in confusing ways, or etc.

Which isn't to say the plot is straightforward! There's lots of twists and turns, and you'll be amazed where the series ends up :) Very suspenseful and engaging trilogy.

I don't think you can get better than Artemis and Apollo being twins representing day and night. Night has come for reddit.

This is how you get bad actors spamming new accounts. But a better idea might be to have a central location for trusted moderators to convene and for overwhelmed mods to request short-term assistance modding, until they can find long-term help from within their own communities.

How to find trusted moderators is a bit hard this early on in kbin's life, it would have to be done based on early comments & perhaps contributions to the issue tracker / the repo itself. Or maybe proof via Discord and/or reddit of good faith.

That said, so far the problem I see seems to be too little content, not anything overrun with bots, so these ideas seem to be solutions in search of a problem, at least thus far.

While I spent the most time on /r/fantasy, I miss /r/vexillologycirclejerk the most by far
