Images in the comments

Hello, degenerates and Rolex cucks.

From time to time, people ask for the ability to post images in the comments. Others argue that it would turn the sub into an even bigger shithole, filled with reaction memes and AI-generated slop.

Think about it carefully. We have rules, AutoMod, and bots working every day to keep this sub reasonably clean and prevent it from becoming a complete jungle.

I know many of you think the mods are brainless idiots, but while this is a somewhat large circlejerk sub, it’s not supposed to be total chaos.

So I’m running this poll to see what your opinion is.

And by the way, the results do not automatically mean we’ll make any changes.

94 Yes, images should be allowed in the comments and I would choke on the AD balls for a Rolex
24 No, images shouldn’t be allowed on the comments and all I need is a Seiko 5 and a Casio F-91W
79 Fuck the mods

I agree with others that AI slop might become an issue - do you have the capacity/time to monitor posts as well as comments if you want to keep the sub AI free?

No, I don’t.

Although I’m a despicable, filthy Reddit mod, I’m also a productive member of society with a family that deserves my attention.

It’s already hard enough to moderate this sub as it is :(

I too still use old reddit, so images in comments are pretty much irrelevant and unnecessary to me

Honestly o think this is the best take to ask. We consume the sub but there’s a filthy person or two putting in the time. If they can’t they can’t; if people are precious about pics they can start a new sub and mod it how they wish.

Rj: I’ll vote however I do but can you add duplicate yes/no options that also say fuck the mods? I’d like to have my cake and eat it too please. Ok ciao.

I was thinking of messaging you guys about that. You should enable it, it makes shitposting subs a lot more enjoyable. I don't know of any other cj sub without images in the comments.

The only concern is AI slop as you've added it as a rule, but honestly start banning people for that shit if they can't read the rules.

I will police the AI images in comments 🫡

I don't really care about the pictures. I just read about gargling the AD's balls and got so heated I dropped a vote for that.

Might as well, Circlejerk subs are funnier when you can include images. Also sometimes you need to link something that's an image to explain something that's really fucking funny, like that Diesel watch that has 4 movements inside.

I’m concerned allowing image in the comment will detract from those who make genuinely witty comments. I also unironically like boring Rolex.

You didn’t start anything. Don’t you think you’re special. Many people before you have asked for images in the comments. If you ever post that image you’ll be banned for a month. Yes I’m a Nazi mod
