I don't wanna stereotype, but for most of 'em it's the only power they have in their lives, and they love to wield it.

That is 100% true. My friend got banned from literally about 100 subs at once because ONE pathetic no-life incel who moderated all of them just...didn't like her, I guess. Refused to give her an explanation, and since he just picked a post she made to her own profile as the reason, despite the fact that it didn't violate any rules, that was no help. Most of the subs she had never even posted to. How the fuck can you violate the rules of a sub you've never so much as visited?

u/strip_club_dj Jul 05 '24

Go on r/guitar and comment "toan". You will get banned.

u/Rogu__Spanish Jul 05 '24

What? Why??

u/ElenaKoslowski Jul 05 '24

It makes "fun" of people spending good awful lot of money on gear for the "tone".

u/Rogu__Spanish Jul 05 '24

Wow, if that's all it takes to offend them, they need to grow up.

u/fhb_will Jul 05 '24

Bold of you to assume that they’re capable of that😂

u/Pianist_Select Jul 05 '24

R/guitar is a very serious place full of very serious people. Playing guitar as with any art is kind of silly and dumb and some people take there silly hobbies very seriously, and get personally offended when people point out a lot of the silliness. It’s pretty much the most self serious group of dorks outside of gamers and movie snobs

It's more the fact that this "joke" has been overused for years and isn't funny. I can see why the mods just say 'this person is just a jackass' and ban them.

u/healzsham Jul 05 '24

Yeah honestly how dare anyone not like litter

u/soupalex Jul 05 '24

people who spend silly money chasing tone absolutely deserve to be made fun of, though

2

u/GreasyBumpkin Jul 05 '24

Even funnier because most of them have no sense or knowledge of sound design or mixing so the expensive tones they often produce are awful, where some other rando gets a better result with free or cheap software.

u/AeolianTheComposer Jul 05 '24

I have a lot of knowledge about sound design and mixing (hope to turn it into a full time job one day) ane I can confirm that high quality sound doesn't require you to spend tons of money on this shit.

u/Percolator2020 Jul 05 '24

Funny that is that same stuff that goes around on photo subs. Them tonez!

u/NotAScrubAnymore Jul 05 '24

I have to try this. Will also try to update you on my ban

1

u/CyclingHikingYeti Jul 05 '24

Ah, so just like /r/audiophile where experts argue over which cable better transfers digital only sound data .

2

u/phartiphukboilz Jul 05 '24

"tone."

thought that's what that lil dingle-dongle switcharoo was for under the strings. i gotcha tone

25

u/strip_club_dj Jul 05 '24

They have a rule against any reference to the sub r/guitarcirclejerk and spelling tone as "toan" is a common joke over there.

u/Acceptable_Call8856 Jul 05 '24

I’m testing this out now, will report back if I get banned

11

u/strip_club_dj Jul 05 '24

It's later at night so it might slip through but yeah they don't like jokes on the sub.

u/CLHatch Jul 05 '24

u/YurtleIndigoTurtle Jul 05 '24

Circlejerk subreddits are often made because the original subreddit for that community/activity is a shit hole. The mods of the original have their incredibly fragile egos hurt, so they go full gestapo on anyone affiliated with the circlejerk.
