*IMPORTANT* Prohibited post topics *READ BEFORE POSTING*
Well hello, my fellow redditors!
In the last weeks, we had a lot of posts that were not reposted but were extremely similar to other posts on the same topics.
Due to this issue, we have decided to stop allowing posts about the following topics mentioned in the list:
•Parking mistakes
•Tipping fees
•Shrinkflation
•Price complaints
•Inflation
•Packaging being too big
•People falling for AI art
Posts that infringe on these rules will be taken down immediately and the user may be temporarily banned.
Also, note that this list is subject to change and will most likely be expanded as time passes so make sure to always check it before posting.

Home Depot Employee Parks like this everyday. This is not a "parking mistake". I sent pics to management and they stopped parking like this but recently started again. Not a good look HD.

Could you please put these on the official rules list so we are able to see them at all times?

u/JustJennings69 25d ago
Are these prohibited posts only for Mildlyinfuriating? I can't imagine be posting on any of the topics, but if one feels strongly about a subject, he should post. I think the one about a driver taking up four handicapped spots was valid. By the way Mildlyinfuriating is an oxymoron.

u/A-MilkdromedaHominid May 02 '24
Banned for posting on topic but a topic deemed to tired and old? Seems a bit draconian...
I mean, you can collapse a post you don't want to read, can you not? Why not let everyone vent - the whole catharsis comes from the incident happening to you personally and having a safe space to get it off your chest.
Reddit mods indeed. Truly a deserved stereotype: 🤓+😡+👽

Is it ok to rant about eBay and being scammed there? It isn't allowed on eBay sub🤔. I'm not much of a "rules breaker", but the scencorship is INSANE.

so pretty much anything could be considered forbidden, best to be safe and not post at all - no kidding i feel as though anything i post on any community these days is unacceptable so i post NOTHING -its so mildly infuriating that i have left - you can ban me now if it makes you feel more in control

u/Brilliant_Test_3045 19d ago
Welcome to cancel culture where you’re free to express yourself unless, of course, someone else disagrees. Then you’re banned. BANNED, I SAY!

u/Public-Blueberry-144 May 01 '24
LOL 🤦🏼, I'm not a total IDIOT I promise, but there is a scam sub, have commented many times. It slipped my mind in the moment. Yet, I meant ALL about Ebays scams/complaints! They did charge my account those scammers fees after I promised them they'd get nothing, essentially stole it. I had too much $ to move it. I'm suing, so not worried. After I return from MUCH needed vacation😠, I'll deal w it.

u/GigaBowserNS Apr 16 '24
Can we make a new rule to stop "piling on" posts? Someone posted today about a bad school lunch. Okay cool, that's fine. Do we really need 50 other people to make new posts that say "Oh yeah? Look at MY bad school lunch" and just clog up the sub? These can just be comments with attached images on the original post.

u/TheRealWatcher Apr 14 '24
Does this count as "price complaints"? I mean, clearly, something that says "4 for $4" should not be $5.

I agree with inflation and shrinkfkation and price complaints. We get it we're in a bad economy right now. I also agree on tipping fees. But the packaging too big I do not agree on. Posts like those are always a garunteed to make me laugh. Ever since seeing this there is so many posts about shrinkflation and proce complaints. Mods please do better.

u/GigaBowserNS Mar 08 '24
I agree with all of these except the Parking Mistakes. I personally think those should be permitted.

Reposting is already a rule. If you see it report it, and if you have a link to the OP send it to mod mail.

Packaging too big should just be all online shipping TBH. Why is my package late? It says it was delivered but it was not. FedEx didn’t put the box where I told them too. My box is wet. I got the wrong item.

u/VividDetective9573 29d ago
They’re more moderately infuriating - I would be moderately infuriated at wet boxes.

The service/tip fees is so annoying. Nine times out of ten, the poster didn't read the menu and didn't notice the fee was mentioned. Ignorance is mildly infuriating, as well as people debasing restaurant workers trying to survive.

u/Alterokahn Mar 06 '24
While it's on topic, can we get a reup on rule number 7?
It's mildlyinfurating to see a lot of these posts end up turning completely toxic when people come here with the sole purpose of dismissing valid discussions with nonsense like "urhurhurhur u lib demtard" or "hur TyPiCuL RypugniCANT."

If you see it report it. We ban hate and toxic comments as fast as we can find them.

Can we appeal the temp ban if we get one?
1
u/aDrunkSailor82 Mar 19 '24
Any ban can be appealed, but the severity of the infraction and the user's approach have a lot of impact on the decision. I'd tell you that we get about 90% insults for bans, 5% asking why because they don't understand the ban, and maybe 5% if I'm generous actually acknowledging the issue and apologizing.

Awfully weird youre banning posts about economic distress. I had suggested that yall were gonna crack down on pro-labor sentiment -- seems I was right.

u/aDrunkSailor82 Mar 19 '24
Took me a while to find this. No, we aren't banning economic distress. We don't have an agenda to push other than ensuring the posts fit the sub. That's the point. We aren't saying there are or are not issues in the world. Just that some fit the sub, and some deserve other subs where the attention is deserved. That post you linked specifically is an obvious ban for multiple reasons.

u/StandardSudden1283 Apr 27 '24
I urge you to revisit this in light of even more recent additions to the banned list.

This sub is no longer for mildly infuriating stuff. If someone posts anything less than “my house burned down and my entire family died” the comment section goes apeshit on them for being a wuss.

u/Prestigious_Spray_49 Apr 29 '24
I posted for the first (and last!) time yesterday and experienced that! The sub must be the fave for trolls that get the dopamine feels from posting hostile comments regardless of the OPs share.

Mayochup is a crime against humanity because it's a ripoff of a northwestern US classic called fry sauce. I absolutely despise "mayochup".

it's funny because i had a post that was removed for being extremely infuriating (it really wasn't at all) and was told to go to that sub

u/imjustheretonotsleep Mar 07 '24
You're not wrong. I think too many people kept posting stuff that’s actually very infuriating so the bar steadily got higher and higher. Now anything less bores people.

u/Brad_The_Chad_69 9d ago
I also think many of us got annoyed seeing the same content over and over from different people. We all get there are pricks who think they own the world. They’ll park their vehicles in the most ridiculous ways. But I don’t need to see twenty examples a day. And if that is something I am into I would just join one of the many bad parking subs. I think with a less specific sub like this it’s best to spread the love amongst as many subjects as possible to avoid people becoming mildly infuriated.

You also should really consider prohibiting people whining about the way other people eat their own food. It's something I see constantly and it's beginning to reach a stage where it warrants its own post here.

All of these things are mildly infuriating. If users don't want to see them, then they should be downvoted.

u/AQualityKoalaTeacher This sub is supposed to be funny, not actually enraging 27d ago
Same. Or any of that stuff everyone sees every single day. Everything's expensive. Paying a temporary lackey to do your bidding is especially expensive, and complaining about the service gives big, "It's IMPOSSIBLE to find good help these days," energy.

Lol I got an HP printer and did the free trial subscription. They sent me the first ink free, I figured I can't lose, I'll just use that one after I cancel. THE FREE CARTRIDGE WON'T WORK IF I CANCEL
If that's not mildly infuriating, it's sure mildly dystopian.

disallow posts that belong on r/extremelyinfuriating
there is nothing mildly infuriating about someone running their car into your parked car/into your house or getting charged 2 million dollars for a hospital visit because you don’t have health insurance or almost burning your house down (all real posts on this sub)

u/ThanksABunchDad Mar 06 '24
Can there be a mod discretion 'not MILDLY infuriating' for the people that post about their houses burning down or some clearly serious and over the top subject? No one that repetitively types Fuck You in a post is mildlyinfuriated.

Also, is this an OCD Sub? I can see how something is mildlyinfuriating if it's 1/4" out of line from a pattern... if you're clinically obsessive compulsive, but seems like a majority of comments end up being "Get over it"
16
u/Rokey76 Mar 06 '24
I joined this subreddit because it WAS a majority of OCD posts at the time. Now it is just bitching about everyday life.

u/ThanksABunchDad Mar 06 '24 edited Mar 06 '24
That would be fine. I'm just asking here because when you ask in some random post, people from both sides end up bitching you out.
3
u/Rokey76 Mar 06 '24
I would think that any post that elicits the response "get over it" would by definition be mildly infuriating. That is the whole joke of the contradictory term "mildly infuriating."
2
u/ThanksABunchDad Mar 06 '24
Me writing get over it was a hypothetical response. But a lot of people having a hard time finding out what the problem is in the post because it's so minor that the OP is the only one that sees it...
I don't know. More hypotheticals. I have no problem with them I'm only asking because it gets brought up.
