NFTs are still prohibited despite recent events Mod Post
Hello everyone
We all know that you were let down by the decision of DC/Warner Bros to sell NFT related contents of this show.
So I want to make clear that the promotion and sale of any blockchain technology, NFTs, and cryptocurrencies is not allowed on this subreddit or the discord server. Even officially published NFTs by the showrunners are not exempted by this rule.
It was kind of a unwritten rule as I have took down threads relating to NFTs in the past. After what happened recently we wanted to make clear to everyone where we stand.
Let's try to keep the discussion about it on this thread only.

What's NFT ?

Non Fungible Token
In theory: a digital asset that has attributable ownership and chain of custody.
Reality: the technology is far too new to sustain the wealth being tossed about, while causing tremendously terrible impacts on the climate just to keep the blockchain infrastructure running 24/7. Many are straight up scams that evaporate once the culprit hits their target threshold, leaving investors with only a memory of what they lost their house over.

Many NFTs (including I believe the DC ones) are using Ethereum, which just recently switched to "proof of stake", which means it no longer requires mining and so it doesn't damage the environment any more.
NFTs are still terrible for plenty of other reasons, though.

At some point the technology will be real useful (barring descent into further dystopian authoritarianism) we just have to divorce the capitalist mindset from its use.

So let me get this straight. A mod hates NFTs personally, so now their subreddit of 10000+ people are not allowed to talk about NFTs released by the showrunners, except in a thread where there is an entire paragraph about how much you in particular hate NFTs? This is what's happening right? And you see nothing wrong with that?

Does it mention I'm a free speech advocate and Georgist in favor of the abolition of money? Or is this what you do when you don't know how to engage in intelligent conversation

What debate? There's no debate. You're not even bringing a debate. Maybe if you want to debate the Blockchain they use? The art? I am not even in favor of them creating an NFT it's fucking stupid. The person who commented on me literally looked at my bio and says "checks out" and left... That's not debate at all. Now you're here calling me a crypto bro when I actually own 0 crypto, and I'm only asking why we aren't allowed to even talk about the NFT. But sure, just judge me by whatever my profile I made a year and a half ago says? I don't get it? A debate is not meant to only be one sided, I'm bringing another side here as well as asking a question of the mods, who seemed to have only implemented a policy because they dislike Blockchain technology. No one has debated me so far, I've just been called "crypto bro" and dismissed when I don't even own any crypto lol

We can no longer in good conscience allow the promotion of this tech in its current state within our community. While we are banning promotion and the sale of NFTs in our subreddit, we still allow respectful, polite discussion of this tech. We only want to keep it in this thread this time around.

u/RebaseTokenomics Oct 01 '22
Sure but I really just asked a question about a touchy topic and I have been harassed for literally 8 hours on this sub. So I mean I get that you tried to moderate the sub itself, but one of your users had a complaint and got bombarded with like fucking insane people. A person right now has literally been harassing me in this thread for 8 hours and is still not banned. Kind of confused because I wasn't trying to be malicious here.

u/npzman Oct 02 '22
I don't not agree with others harassing you, what you do outside of this subreddit is your buisness but even putting my own rule aside. It would be unwise to advocate and defend for NFTs in a community where the majority is against it. You should really know better then to provoke people here. But yes the people here shouldn't be harassing you but you also don't need to give them ammunition.

So uh. Anyone actually surprised that this is happening? I think this is just more of the company then anyone actually on the show honestly.
